Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Don't fall into the common trap of thinking you don't need to worry about grammar, spelling, clarity, and other fundamentals of good writing when you use digital formats. These qualities can be especially important with digital, particularly if these messages are the only contact your audience has with you. Poor-quality messages create an impression of poor-quality thinking, and even minor errors can cause confusion, frustration, and costly delays.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Start with the big picture, making sure that the document accomplishes your overall goals, before moving to finer points such as readability, clarity, and conciseness.
