Dear All,
I am happy to inform you that the Water Metabolic System Group organizes the workshops on "Technical Writing in English" on July 10 and 12.

Dr. Adele Sanders has Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in English Education. Also she has Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, Boulder, USA, in Curriculum and Instruction. While the Ph.D. candidate, she began working with international students in the Engineering College at CU Boulder by helping them improve their English language usage in their Master's theses and Ph.D. dissertations.
She did such a workshop at the University of Colorado for graduate students with English as a second language and it was very successful.

Please refer a message from Dr. Sanders.

I will provide specific language-use information (grammar and punctuation) during the first workshop, and thesis and report writing tips during the second one. This second workshop might need a little more time if the students are willing to ask questions based on some of their own writing currently in progress or about some writing issue they might expect to confront. They might even be encouraged to bring into the sessions specific examples of their problems that we could incorporate into an even more personal and suitable dialogue.

I look forward to this opportunity with great enthusiasm and appreciation.

The first workshop is being presented from 15:00 (-16:30) on Tuesday 10 and the second one is starting from 15:00 (16:30) on Thursday 12.

Those who wish to attend the workshop are asked to send their names, labs and contact information to the COE office in advance.

If you have any question or need further information, please contact either myself, Kikuchi, or Kamada.

Your active participation is more than welcome.
