Annotated Works Cited page due on Friday!


Creative Writing                                                                                                         Name

Writers write about critical questions and issues that pertain to them and their times. One of the critical issues in our time is technology. Over the last several classes we have discussed many of the issues surrounding technology. Now it’s your turn to do some reading and thinking on a question that you have articulated about technology.

Step 1.

Write a question pertaining to technology that you would like to explore. Some examples are as follows:

·        How has reliance upon technology changed people’s relationship with the natural world?

·        Has technology affected parent/child relationships?

·        Will technology contribute to human happiness?

·        How will technology affect the economic differences between people?

·        How will technology affect privacy and privacy rights and expectations?

Step 2.

Once you have written a question that you would like to work with, your task is to identify and read 5 high quality articles or other resources that pertain to your question. Your articles need to be from databases or from print resources for this project.

Step 3.

Using NoodleTools, you will construct an annotated works cited page. Your annotations will consist of 2-4 sentences. Your annotations need to include the following:

1.      A brief summary of the main idea(s) of the article

2.       A sentence about how this article responds to your question

 

Step 4.

Submit your annotated works cited page, and we will begin writing a short story using your ideas!
