Its and misses

Article Abstract:

Lecturers need to be aware when they are teaching scientific and technical undergraduates of the different communications skills that their students will require when they enter the business world. Work produced in an academic context is generally seen by people who already know what the student is writing/talking about, whereas in industry reports or talks will often be given to people who do not know the background to the work being produced and will, therefore, need to be treated differently.
