Hello, everyone, nice to meet you. My name is Rick L., and I'm happy to be teaching this course. I'm from the UK, and I'm a professor in the Department of English Language & Literature at the Prefectural University of Kumamoto. I live in Kumamoto City with my wife and one daughter (the other daughter is away at university).
My field is applied linguistics, and I'm especially interested in sociocultural theory, writing, and computer-assisted language learning.
In my free time, I like reading novels, watching movies, and playing table tennis.
I'm looking forward to working with you over these three days.

A couple of good books for writing your sotsuron (graphs, charts, figures)
One important part of writing a graduation paper (sotsuron) for many students is creating charts or figures. This can be a difficult thing to do well. So in this post I'm going to tell you about a couple of books that might be useful. (Also, please check out my Booklog shelf for items tagged visualization.)
The first one is called Effective Data Visualization. This book takes you through the basic principles of displaying your data so that readers can understand it.
The second one, Displaying Your Findings, teaches you how to format your graphs or figures in the style approved by the American Psychological Association.
I hope that you will one or both of these books interesting.
