be
sure to use correct English spelling and grammar. Sources must be
cited in APA format. Your response should be four (4) pages in
length; refer to the “Assignment Format” link on the course
homepage for specific format requirements.
In
your course, turn to Lesson 8. Skim through it to refresh your
memory. Next, carefully study and review the section titled
“Measuring Technological
Progress.”
Use
your own words to write a short compare-and-contrast essay that
defines and explains three distinct perspectives on the evolution of
technology. As you write, imagine you are talking to a friend who has
no knowledge of this topic. In short, write the way you speak, using
a conversational tone. Also, try to alternate short sentences and
longer sentences to make your writing more readable.
Be
sure to create a title and cite yourself as the author. For example:
A
Write a paper on Comparison of Three Perspectives on the Evolution of Technology
Mei
Quoran
Your
essay should include five paragraphs, as follows:
Paragraph
1 is your lead paragraph. It will contain an overview of what you
have to say in comparing and contrasting the perspectives of Gerhard
Lenski, Leslie White, and Alvin Toffler with respect to the
evolution of technology.
Paragraphs
2, 3, and 4, are your body paragraphs.
In
your essay, use paragraph 2 to describe the perspective of Gerhard
Lenski.
In
paragraph 3, you’ll write about the perspective of Leslie White.
In
paragraph 4, you’ll describe and discuss the perspective of Alvin
Toffler.
Paragraph
5 is your summary and conclusion. Here, you’ll compare the three
perspectives to show how they are, or may be, similar. You’ll
contrast the three perspectives to describe how they’re different.
You’ll end this process–and your essay–by expressing your view
as to which of these theorists (one or more) offer the most useful
insights into the evolution of technology, in your opinion.
It’s
permissible to use direct quotes from your reading, but don’t use
too many. One to three such quotes should be your limit. Be sure to
put a direct quote in quotation marks. For example: According to
Smith, “Carbon dioxide is both our friend and our enemy.”
Begin
by writing a first draft. Then, edit and rework your material to make
it clear and concise. After you have reached a final draft, proofread
the essay one last time to locate and correct grammar and spelling
errors.
