This course is designed to help students write research papers (in English) with the assistance of computer technology. Our focus will be on the research-writing methods and skills. However, activities dealing with the electronic information sources (e.g. on-line search, CD-ROM search, Chinese and English databases, webliography) and computer-generated papers (e.g. database management of notes, word processing) will also be given. MLA, APA formats, and possibly CMS system will be reviewed briefly.
