If you are in one of Christopher Dean's classes at UCSB, then you are at a "home" you have in cyberspace. From here you can reach your class Webpage (via "Your Class Homepage" link above) that includes you syllabus and schedule; you can see what questions people have been posing in classes (via the "FAQs About Chris' Classes"); you can check out a variety of online writing resources (by clicking on the "Writing Resources" Link); check out links used in various classes (by visiting the "Links of the Moment" site); and even learn about your instructor and his qualifications for teaching you by checking out "Information about Christopher Dean." Also, you can get a sense of where your class fits by looking at the Writing Program Homepage (http://www.writing.ucsb.edu) and the Webpage for Specialization in Language, Literacy, and Composition Studies (http://education.ucsb.edu/Graduate-Studies/Education/programsofstudy/lang-lit-cs.htm).

Again, welcome, and if you need to contact me, then email me at cdean@writing.ucsb.edu. I look forward to working with you this semester--both face-to-face and in cyberspace.
