Welcome English III groups

Dear students, we are about to begin a new course. This semester I will have the opportunity to work with groups 601, 602 and 604. In this blog you will find aids, sources and important links related to the program.
Every week I will update the blog according to what we see in class.
English III is a course aimed to help students develop basic research strategies. Since most of you are about to finish high school and present your final work (Problema Eje), this space will be devoted to guide and help you in this process.
Every entry will show an important feature or step for your acquisition of strategies as a researcher. I really expect this course helps you achieve your academic goals in this semester.

Best regards,
Norberto Morales
