Welcome!

This is the course blog for our Writing class. I will use it to post announcements and homework questions. You will use it to post your homework answers, and any questions you might have for me.

So it would be helpful if every student could post one test "comment" by clicking below. This way I will know whether you are able to use the blog successfully. (If you do not have a Google or Blogger account, it may be necessary to create one.)

I look forward to meeting all of you soon.

Announcement: There will be no class meeting on 2/24. The class will meet with the TA (Ms. Chen) on 3/3 to do a diagnostic writing assignment. Aaron will return to teach the class on 3/10 and thereafter.

Syllabus: You can read a preview copy here. I will print you a finalized copy on 3/3. But if you notice any mistakes in the syllabus, or any confusing parts, or if you have any suggestions for improving it, now is a good time to tell me! (You can use the comment feature below.)

Textbooks: If you've seen the syllabus, you know that there are several books to purchase for the class. Unfortunately, I've been having some problems with the order because none of them were available in Taiwan. So we will not be reading Easy Writer at all. Black Swan should arrive in time for later in the semester. But Moneyball, They Say I Say, and Blink will arrive to the bookstore on 3/3, so please buy them!
