Organization
According to Technical Communication, it is important to “consider other media, such as wikis, discussion boards, and videos” while planning the instructions (Markel 572). The relevant elements include titles, spacing, task purpose, tools, materials, conclusion, and the formatting of the step-by-step instructions (Markel 572).
Presentation
According to Technical Communication, the key components of successful presentations are simplicity, comprehensiveness, outline, graphics, summaries, and visual ease of reading (Markel 604). One should “consider the length of your presentation, your audience’s aptitude and experience, the size and layout of the room, and the equipment available” (Markel 604). Thus, the relevant elements are presentation length, visibility of graphics, and structure.

These images are relevant to the report because they show the practical aspects and procedural steps of the YouTube channel creation process.
