As technology grow and increasingly gets bigger and and better people are finding new ways to harness that information and use it to their advantage and learn from it. Clive Thompson suggests that technology is even helping literacy and this young generation. He states that “Young people write far more than any generation before them”(Source 7). You can thank Twitter and Facebook for the mass amount of posts and writing from teens. Thompson followingly says that “students were remarkably adept at what rhetoricians call kairos - addressing their audience and adapting their tone and technique to best get their point across.(Source 7)

Next, he supports his claim by addressing how writing changes an individual’s cognitive behavior and the cognitive effort generating text does to one’s memory. Thompson finally introduces the impact of the theory of multiples. In my analysis of Thompson’s text, I will examine, analyze and evaluate his central claims and the evidence he uses to support these claims to prove that the internet has helped us as writers. Thompson’s purpose is to persuade the audience that the internet is a central part of learning in order to improve the quality of

“In-Forming”, an app described as an individual 's ability to provide themselves with their own personal supply chain of information, knowledge, and entertainment, has impacted Danville by decreasing the amount of effort students have to put into their work and assignments, and by giving every person in Danville access to others in and out of the small town. Students of the Danville Area School District used to have to lug around large textbooks for every class, go to the library to find information for assignments, and write with actual writing utensils, but now, because of the world wide web, old standards required for learning have “left the building.” With a simple search for a textbook title on “Google,” students are able to access large

For Professor Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein, online communication is not as devastating as some critics argue that it reduces people 's ability to read, write, and think in a clear, logical and critical way. They point out considerable problems like reductive abbreviations substitute for complete words and sentences in writing and the fast speed message exchange reduce the time for thinking. On the contrary, Graff and Birkenstein argue that the Internet is only another field that can expose some weak and unsophisticated writers (171). The technology itself has nothing to be blamed, but it is essential for people to step back and discuss how to develop new ability to face the challenge of the new technology. After all, technology improvement

I- Globalization is irreversible because embedded in the economy structure A. Globalization appears to be irreversible due to the dependence of economies vis-à-vis globalization. Despite a decline, due to the economic crisis, since the 90’s, the sum of exports and imports is now higher than 50% of global production; France for example double its trade openness going from 15% in the 1980’s to more than 35% in 2010. It traduces the dependence of national economy compare to the rest of the world, exportations being an essential component in the global demand. We can then consider that globalization is like embedded in global economy structure based nowadays on interdependence relations between nations. Another example of this dependence is the rise of the FDI stock that rose from less than 2 trillion dollars in the 1990 to more than 15 trillion dollars in 2015.

When students first start learning to read they must learn the shapes of the alphabet, the sounds they make, and many more iterative steps that develops a student 's proficiency in the traditional form of literacy. With the development of technology teachers are given more tools to teach students. In order for teachers to use these new tools properly they must know how to wield them properly. Websites, Wikis, Social media, podcasts, and video making are great ways of instructing students. While the old literacies are similar to the new literacies, new literacies take the building blocks of the old and use them in a different way.

Although, the internet actually brings numerous advantages to its users. It has a wide advantage in the education system. In the Pew survey, which was done in conjunction with the College Board and the National Writing Project, roughly 75 percent of 2,462 teachers surveyed said that the Internet and search engines had a “mostly positive” impact on student research skills. And they said such tools had made students more self-sufficient researchers (Richtel). Many teachers said that the Internet could be a useful in education for enhancing the student’s ability to make research and explore.

Academics in Sydney, Australia are starting to take a more serious look at Wikipedia. They've learned that students in higher education are simply not interested in the traditional way of learning and have embarked on an adventure to let their university students write and edit article on Wikipedia. This is a learning experience for the students and the lecturers at the University of Sydney. Students write articles and they look at the feedback presented by others that read their articles. This is a way for students in academic writing courses to receive feedback from peers, teachers, and others from around the world.

Technology connects people more together on the topic of writing and critiquing. Publishing works online will give you the most unbiased comments about how internet users feel about your writing. There are an abundance of teachers who promote students to publish their work on the web such as Diane Davis, a professor of rhetoric at Iowa. In the article she emphasizes that, “publishing her students’ work online improves their writing at all stages” (140). The internet plays a big role and I do not see this tool going anywhere anytime soon.
