PART 1

Overview

In this Module, we have been looking at the parts of essays because we will be working on our first rough draft for an essay next week–Woo Hoo!

Last week, we looked at the topics of Artificial Intelligence Applications in Education in a Discussion and a Journal; this subject is one of our choices for the first essay. This week, we are going to look at another possible topic for the first essay, Technology Addiction. It is my hope that by reading and writing on these topics, you will have engaged in some prewriting, which will ultimately prepare you to start your rough draft next week.
