What is technical communication?

Missouri University of Science and Technology's Department of English and Technical Communication describes it as follows:

Technical communication, whether written, oral, or visual, enables people to use technology effectively, to understand technology, or to make effective decisions about real-world problems. In this context "technical" refers to technology in the broadest sense-that is, any materials or human-created processes that help people act or think. Thus, instruments and equipment are technologies, but so are methods of farming and systems of information.
