When looking and how my field in particular writes, I have to think about some different aspects of what my field does in there job and what they will be communicating to others. For instance... in an engineers day at work, they work on several projects and go to meetings and discuss ideas and plans. When writing in a field like this, everything must be concise and correct all the time. It must be easily read and interpreted. So big words or lengthy explanation is not the answer in most cases, unless something needs to be further explained in depth.
My classes have showed me through what my teachers want us to turn in for assignments and how writing should be executed in those situations. A lot of what engineers do has final, concise answers so it makes sense that writing has the answer and precise explanations.
As for finding really what writing is like in my field, I should ask real engineers how they write and maybe even job shadow one.
