Apply research and use writing to develop a burgeoning understanding of the genres and formats common to various disciplines.

Sharing opinions and thoughts lead to interesting arguments and allow the class to be more interactive. So why not allow them to use technology in every aspect of today’s modern education. Davidson suggests that education needs to implement crowd sourcing as a learning method; diversity is a very particular characteristic of our society and teachers should take advantage of those different ways of thinking to allow students join forces to find solutions on different problems, share knowledge and explore new ways to research things; parting from the premise that it doesn’t matter how brilliant a person could be, collective group is always smarter than one person separately. Teachers should encourage the use of technology always when in the classroom. If kids are so into their electronic devices why not teach through it by creating clever ways to learn such as phone apps. Therefore, take the negative aspect away and transform them into a resourceful teaching tool that would allow the students to be more interested and engaged in their

In his 2011 article, “Reliance on Online Materials Hinders Learning Potential for Students,” David Smith attempts to build upon student’s obligated online interaction to make a case against online classes. Smith first shows how much today’s learners must use online materials by using the example of his own Alma Mater. By referencing his own experience at the University of Nebraska—Lincoln, with MyRED and EBSCO search engine, Smith lays the grounds for the focus of his argument. He then attempts to use what seem to be personal examples of experience with online coursework while begging the question through repeated examples. By failing to establish the credibility of his facts, attempting to force his own

For some of us, it is difficult to comprehend why our education systems have not yet made the transition to technology-based forms of teaching especially when we are in the era of technology. To others, the reasoning is clear and they support the original, dated usage of textbooks in a “traditional classroom” setting. The changes in our society are undeniable with the innovation of technology and social media. Although some authors, such as Neil Howe and Jean Twenge, argue that technology is deteriorating the minds of Millennials, technology is also providing Millennials with a way to create connections across communities.

Obtaining the attention of multiple audiences is a challenging task to achieve, which is why when attempting to reach out to all audiences we must use several forms of communication to receive the best possible outcome. Now when speaking about my communication plan and having to create genres for various public audiences there a multitude of factors I had to consider. I had to acknowledge what is the genres primary purpose and had to keep in mind some main components such as, audience, genre expectations, and how creating these genres will impact this project. However, utilizing all aspects and meeting high standards is difficult to maintain.

This paper analyzes part 8: Do Students Lose More Than They Gain in Online Writing Classes? in Kate Kiefer's Brave New Classrooms. She questions whether students actually gain any real benefits from an online classes. Although onnline learning is a rapidly expanding learning format that takes full advantage of today’s technology it does have its shortcomings that Kiefer addresses throughout the article. She names three principle reasons why understudies aren't learning in web based written work courses: Classroom bolster programming, understudies' opportunity requirements, and "market" models of instruction. Kiefer affirms the nonattendance of eye to eye collaboration in web based written work courses is maybe the most compelling motivation

Students of Sunnyvale are now expected to learn both in the classroom and independently from the internet, which is yet another way that our school has become more technologically focused. In Mrs. Blue’s class, students listen to lectures in the classroom as well as outside of the classroom to maximize efficiency within their learning process, which is one of many examples that show the trend towards technological literacy within Sunnyvale. This dynamic in the student-teacher relationship has helped the students in many ways, but has also proven to have some detrimental effects. Some teachers now expect the internet to take the place of teaching in the classroom, which has caused many students to struggle academically; however, many teachers

The author of the article, Maximillian Alvarez, begins by explaining how his classes are structured. He explains the environment he tries to build and details a series of questions he asks his students to ponder about. Much like our first day of class, he asks his students to think about their opinions and whether they are entitled to have them or not.

This learning activity is designed for distance education students at Anne Arundel Community College (AACC). The activity is implemented within an online orientation course that is being proposed for first-year students at AACC to equip them with the necessary skills needed to complete an online course. The activity of this course that will be referenced in this paper is a discussion forum following the reading of an assigned essay. Students will be introduced to discussion forums within the first week of the course by posting an introduction for themselves. The discussion forum will require students to create their essay about what they believe. The students are required to post their initial post by Wednesday so that ample time is allowed for peer’s response. Students will also be required to respond to at least two students’ posting in the forum.

When most people hear about online schooling, they think about the ability to wake up at anytime, to wear pajamas while doing classwork, and to learn in the comforts of their own home. Albeit the idea of online schooling may seem glamorous, recent findings display unsatisfactory results from students in the virtual classroom. With certain states advocating for the online school’s access to AP classes and credit recovery, the presence of online schooling expands rapidly. However, doubts for the value of digital learning proliferates, warning parents to regard this alternative with caution. In Sean Coughlan’s “Online schools ‘worse than traditional teachers,’” he discusses the insufficient results of online schooling whereas Daphne Koller advocates for the usage of online schooling in “The Future of College: It’s Online.” By using ethos,

The producers will develop a test and the audience will tell the producers whether it is something they want to see or they are not going to see. This can affect the next text to be produced in an attempt to conform to the audience demands. Looking at the development of different types of genres and the development of films within the same genre, it’s possible to look at similarities and differences and identify changes in society and audience ideologies and tastes.

Genre is known to change discourse by the format the information is presented to the audience (Varela, 2008). It is also a category of composition that is characterized by a particular style, form or content as dictate by Webster Third Dictionary. However Trosborg (n.d) stated that for the past decade, genre identification, classification and description have been scholarly concern. Certain scholars dictate that genre is defined primarily around its basic external criteria such as journals and newspaper discourse while other scholars stand on the opinion that genre can be classify by its communicative purpose, linguistic content and form of role its play in the discourse made (Trosborg, n.d).

With high speed internet available to potential students of all economic levels, schools are opting to implement online classes into their traditional teaching curriculum. As a result, our society is divided in two different ways of thinking on the education. Some believe the modern method is better than the traditional method of teaching. Personally, I believe both methods should balance one another instead of attempting to substitute one another; this way their purpose of educating will be far more successful.

It seems that technology is growing, improving, and changing at an exponential rate. Technology now affects every part of our lives from the time we get up to the time we go to bed, and even as we sleep. One of the major areas that has been affected by technology is education. At one time, the only option for students to complete their education was in a traditional classroom setting. There has become a major need for non-traditional education because there has been a growth in the amount of non-traditional students that exist in our society. The advancement of technology has

The influence of media on society in the 21st century is undeniable. Of all the types of media, music and books stand out as two of the main strands that influences people the most. They are both invaluable resources of knowledge and entertainment that can be accessed by all age groups. However, the most important aspect of music and books that has made them so prominent to the 21st century audience is that it offers a wide range of genres and styles. Consequently, Music and books have become the principal method of entertainment in the lives of many, as it bestows upon people the opportunity to free themselves from reality, and exist in their own fantasy worlds. By comparing and contrasting the impact of music and books, a superior
