Web Sites of InterestÂ
Nanotechnology
and Nanoscience
http://www.nanowerk.com/
The world of nanotechnology and its related applications is growing
quickly, and there are a number of websites that are dedicated to
keeping up with the developments in the field. This site falls into
that very category, as it
contains links to recent news stories about the field, coupled with
a database containing nanotechnology-related links to universities,
research labs and institutes, and associations. Those who might
be new to the world of nanotechnology will want to browse on over
to the Nanomaterials Introduction section. Here they will find short
pieces on the significance of the nanoscale, nanomaterial science,
and its current (and future) applications. The site also contains
a career center, where interested persons can look over job opportunities
in the industry. [KMG]
Writing Resource
Center: Empire State College [pdf]
http://www.esc.edu/ESConline/Across_ESC/WritingResourceCenter.nsf/homepageForm?OpenForm
Effective learning strategies for becoming a better writer are much
appreciated resources on college campuses, and this site presents
a cornucopia of just this type of material. Created by Empire State
college faculty specifically for adult learners and faculty use,
the site provides access to a very fine annotated resource list.
The list contains documents from The Genesee Valley Center Writing
Program and is divided into sections such as Grammar & Punctuation,
ESL Resources, and Documenting Resources. The site contains over
150 specific resources that range from worksheets for faculty on
how to conduct informal writing activities to a primer on when to
write out numbers and when to use numerals in different types of
documents. [KMG]
