Prompt:

It is the beginning of practicum, your industry mentor asks your practicum group to write an email to the entire the company introducing yourselves. For the sake of the activity, the organization is a hot, new start-up called Meow-Meet - Tinder for cat-lovers. Your practicum is on the Experimentation Team.

This is based on a real story. A couple of years ago, I was an industry mentor working with MSDS students. The students would not write this email. I had to ask several times and got really annoying. Let's practice now.

Steps:

  1. Work together in Riseup Pad.
  2. Write the subject line.
  3. Write the email body.
