In a word document, answer the information below then upload. For all quotes or paraphrases, you must give the author credit by including a page number(s).

  1. Summary. Summarize the book very briefly.  What is the book about?  What time period, event, controversy, person, etc. does it cover?  This can be done with a statement of “what and how” about the book. (For example: In his allegorical novel, Lord of the Flies, William Golding writes about [what?] the evil side of man [how?] by describing what happens to a group of young boys who are marooned on a desert island.)
  2. Author Info. You can present information about the author and their background, qualifications, or philosophy.
  3. Theme/Thesis. Finally, state your specific theme.  (Example: Nancy Shoemaker argues that Native American women adapted their cultural tradition and gender roles to seek power in Euro-American society.) What do you think is the main thesis of the book?  What is the author’s main argument?  What main point do you think the author is trying to get across? (Hint: The author’s thesis is usually stated in the introduction or preface to the book.)

Choose three points to highlight about the book.

  1. Point One

    2. Supporteach of your generalizations with specific details from the story (evidence). (Example:  As Hoikkala states, “Pima-Maricopa women’s responses to their work… attested to a significant change in their attitudes about themselves and the community.” (225))  Include page numbers in parentheses after quoting the author or citing an example.  You do not need to include the author’s name since you will only be dealing with one source.
    3. Explainhow each of these specific details proves your point (interpretation). (Example: The positive reaction of the women of this tribe shows how involvement through work empowered the Salt River women.)
  2. Point Two
    1. Statean idea about your theme clearly (generalization).  (Example: “The Pima and Maricopa women of the Salt River Community were empowered through involvement.)

  • Briefly explain Corrigan’s model of the stages of stigma and his recommendations and hierarchy about recovery.
  • Explain whether Delle’s experience follows that model. Use specific examples to argue your perspective. If you agree, identify which stage of recovery Delle is in.

    • What strengths does he exhibit?

perspectives about technology

Turkle and McGonigal have perspectives about technology

Video links NEEDED to answer

As you may have noticed, Turkle and McGonigal have different perspectives about technology.  For this assignment, you will draft a short research supported argumentative or persuasive draft, using the provided articles and videos featuring McGonigal and Turkle.

Address the following: McGonigal strongly feels that video games are not only positive but can be used to better situations. Turkle has many concerns about technology and its impact on our lives, identities, and emotional well being, but she has a complex relationship with it and has studied its impact for many years.

Questions you may consider: Do their ideas coincide with each other? Do their ideas conflict with each other? How do their personalities and experiences affect their ideas and how they present them? Do their beliefs raise concerns? Is there middle ground in their approaches? Is one person’s viewpoint or argument more compelling than the others? Be aware of your own bias too. Are you generalizing based on stereotypes? Are you considering everything the speaker/author is saying or are you only choosing parts to make them fit your argument? It is okay to raise an issue and not solve it. Noting that something is an issue and needs further research is acceptable in research writing
