Abstract

This paper demonstrates a means to model the key features of the public policy genre for learners. Included within this paper is background information regarding a process for developing a reasoning diagram for students created via consultation with technical experts. The paper also explores the value of this modeling for students, technical faculty, and teaching staff.
