Welcome to Linguistics 96!

Welcome to Heather's Linguistics 96 class!

I hope you all had a great winter break and are ready to learn about English and the Internet. At the start of every class, you will spend about 10 minutes writing a blog.

Some of you may be familiar with blog writing, but, for this class, I will give you topics related to learning English here at UC Davis. You will be able to write whatever you want and you'll be encouraged to use the Internet lingo you'll be taught in class (such as smilies and acronyms).

The blog will be posted publicly, so don't put anything overly personal! Posting your blogs online will give you a chance to get feedback from me and from your classmates (and anyone else you wish to share you blog with!)

Thanks for taking this class, and I hope we will have a lot of fun this quarter!

Sincerely,

Heather
