FINAL PAPER PROBLEMS- JK
The hardest part about this last paper for me is the organization. I know what I want to say I'm just not sure how to organize it. My topic is whether or not I think the written word will be replaced with technology. I think that it will, but whether I think that is a negative or positive I'm not completely one sided. I think that it is not good for us as people to rely on technology. I don't think we need it and I believe a lot of people think we need it. Our grandparents and parents both lived and functioned without it and I think that is a positive. Having a cell phone means people can contact you at all times of the day. I see the negatives and positives of that. A positive could be that if you ever get stuck or need help you can reach out to someone. A negative is that people can contact you all the time. So I just think that I'm going to have trouble organizing my paper, and having it make sense.

You're thinking about the right kinds of things, Julie. Try and articulate precisely what you think is positive/negative - you've already started doing this in your post. You don't have to take a completely one-sided position. Clearly, you think that the written word will die out, and there will be both benefits and drawbacks. The negatives seem to be moving in the direction of what we really "need" - are you worried about dependence or over-reliance on these technologies?
