Technical Writing
How do I make technical writing more 'fluid' and less stiff?
I'm trying my hand at writing a non-fiction novel of a technical nature. I used to be a relatively good writer, but years of writing project proposals and such in corporate america have negatively impacted my writing abilities. I'm trying to write on topics of a technical nature, but when I go back to read my writing and explanations, it all feels very stiff. What can I do to give my writing more of a fluid, lively feel, even when writing about technical topics? Any suggestions to help me improve and get over this?
Read Cosmos by Sagan, or Brief History of Time, by Hawkings; you will see some good examples of techical info delivered in an enjoyable way!

Technical Writing Certification
What is a good subject for a biology/education proposal?
I have to present a proposal to an imaginary board of directors for my technical writing class. It has to pertain to our individual majors. I am a biology major seeking educational certification. I could do a proposal on a topic in either biology, education, or both. What is a good topic?
You could present a proposal requesting new lab equipment for a school, or anatomy physiology lab material, or even textbooks. Explain how it will benefit the students and make the school look better if the grades improve.
