Structural clarity
At the level of the whole document, you can promote structural clarity, making it easy for the reader to get the large picture. Use abstracts and other forecasting strategies such as introductions that state the purpose and scope of the document
Stylistic clarity
Stylistic clarity is promoted by simple, direct language. Simplicity in language is obtained with directly worded sentences. Using simple sentences and avoiding overloaded sentences and excessive normalization also contributes to clarity. Word choice is a factor in stylistic clarity:
Use simple language wherever possible to counteract the abstract, highly specialized terms of science and technology.
Contextual clarity
Contextual clarity, in which the importance, authorization, and implications of your work are made available, also contributes to ease of understanding. All work has context, and your readers want to understand what the context of your document is:
- What prompts you to write?
- What is your purpose?
- Whose work proceeds has influenced yours?
- What is the organizational and intellectual context of your problem?
