Assignment two: Our Argument paper


This week’s blog post is about the topics that we chose to write about in our argumentative paper. My topic that I have chosen is "are people today to dependent on technology". Upon bringing it up in class and thinking about it a little bit, it’s likely to change. although, now that I think about it, it’s more likely to be narrowed down a little bit, or broken down into categories a little bit. Maybe something more along the lines of "ways that modern technology affects students negatively" or something along those lines. I feel like that would probably be a little more down to earth and easier to write about. Then I could bring up laziness via Google, or lack of ability to spell because of spell check, or things along those lines. I mean, I guess I could almost just look to myself for some examples, I found this research paper topic through Google myself. And I could tell that quite a few people used Google too, because I saw the topics they wanted to use on Google while I was searching the day before. Maybe I could even get really ballsy and interview a student or two and maybe strengthen my paper a little or give it a little extra personality. No one really wants to read a 6 page long paper about boring blah stuff, I think an interview could really spice it up. Maybe even a statistic here and there would be nice. In any case, that’s my topic; it’s still not set in stone, like I said, ill more than likely narrow it down to something more down to earth.
