ESSAY #2: Tech Essay: Consider the readings on the blog that have dealt with technology. In your opinion, have recent technologies been good or bad for people? Use specific examples and references to the readings or to other readings you find on this subject. This essay is double-spaced and about 2 pages.
At only two pages or so, it's more of a reflection than a complete essay with intro, body, and conclusion. You may use the first person.
Be sure to completely ignore the comments I made on your restaurant reviews while you write these papers.
BUT THEN, as you edit and revise the essay, take them very seriously. The point is, don;t let them stop you from creating a first draft. After that draft is done, revise, rethink, re-read, edit, edit, and then edit.
The original due date was March 10, but that was incorrect.
This essay must be emailed to me as an attachment by February 24th. I will print them out, comment on them, and hand them back at our meeting on March 3rd.
ENGLISH 305 COURSE INFORMATION
As an online course, the writing that we do in English 305 is substantially different from a face to face course. As such, it is imperative that you understand the course style from the start. Nearly all of your work in this course will be posted on the course blog.
EACH WEEK YOU WILL HAVE THREE BLOG ASSIGNMENTS:
1. A BLOG ENTRY,
2. A READING, AND
3. A WRITING ABOUT THE READING. Your reading and writing on the blog must be completed by the Friday (by midnight) of the week in which the reading falls. You have all week each week to complete the reading and writing for that week, but there are no late assignments accepted, so be sure to be disciplined about the work from the start. Let me re-state that point; if you do the assigned work before or during the week it is due, you will receive full credit. If you do the work after the Friday of the week it is assigned, you will get zero credit for that week.
