Essay

Assignment details:

Compose an informative essay that explores a new technological development in your field of

study. For example, you might choose to explore drone delivery if you are in the IMCT

pathway, virtual reality for STEM, or digitized textbooks if you are pursuing Education. (If

you need more details about Broward College's various career pathways, visit the "Programs

and Degrees" webpage.) In addition to explaining to your audience about the technology, you

must also argue whether or not you believe this technology is ultimately beneficial to the

field, elaborating why or why not by exploring potential applications, dangers, and/or

limitations. For instance, while digitized textbooks may sound like a novel resource in

education, what about students who do not have regular or reliable internet access? In order to

help you to explain your technology, you should conduct research on your topic and

incorporate quotations and/or paraphrases from three outside sources within your essay.

Note: When composing an informative essay, you must achieve accuracy and disclosure

throughout your writing. In other words, always endeavor to present correct information

(reinforced through your research and outside sources), and be sure that you provide your

reader with sufficient background and detail about your topic, especially considering that they

may not be familiar with this technology.

 

Requirements:

You should submit a 1000 word essay (not counting the work cited page), typed and double-spaced. 

Use Times New Roman font in 12-pt size.  Format your paper according to MLA guidelines.
