Welcome From Simon:07 September 2008

.
Welcome to the blogspot for Science Writing in English at the Korea Advanced Institute of cience and Technology [KAIST] located in the Korean city of Daejeon. The aim of this blogsite is - in addition to providing copies of the powerpoints and lecture summaries of each learning session / lecture - to provide you links to resources from the internet related to each topic covered during th course of the semester. Spend a little time navigating around the site to see what is avaible. You can also check in the left hand collumn to see links to the posting for past writing courses. For now, all that is left me to do is to say "Welcome" again and to wish that you have a great semester.
Simon.
