ways does it succeed it? *** Be specific when you answer this question-use examples to support your points! Don't feel like you need to cover ALL aspects of the question; a more specific, well-supported answer is better than a generalized answer. You can interpret "change" in a variety of ways-it does not always mean good things! . The goal of this assignment is to think about our own relationship with technology and innovation. There is NO wrong answer: Each person's response will differ based on their perspective and the examples they use. Good examples are key in making a good argument. • You can consider this question from a micro or macro perspective. Micro: individual lives; Macro: global changes. • This assignment is about your opinion so you can write in the first person (but keep in mind, this is still an academic essay!). • Essays should be 12pt Times New Roman font, double-spaced, max 500 words. No citations are necessary. Because this is a short essay, have a BRIEF introduction (2-3 sentences), followed by two-three paragraphs, and a BRIEF conclusion (1-2 sentences). . • Assignments must be submitted as pdfs to Moodle.
