- Did you finish your technology paragraphs on the following topics? 1) How does technology undermine our lives? and 2) How does technology enhance our lives? Both were due Monday.
- Make sure each paragraph is printed out before class! Go to the library beforehand!
- Each paragraph needs a title and your name.
- Designate one paragraph (presumably your best) for a "deep mark". I will mark this in detail out of /24. The other paragraph should be designated for a "quick mark". I'll quickly peruse it and give you a score out of /10. Your total mark will therefore be /34.
- For the "deep mark" paragraph, you can add up to four bonus words from our 3 spelling lists. Each word can be used only once. If you use each word properly, I'll give you a half mark bonus, for a total of 2 extra marks on top of the /24. Make sure you underline or highlight each of these four bonus words.
