A Controversial Topic in Technology

1. Your paper will concern a controversial technology topic. For example, fracking remains a controversial topic among environmentalists and energy companies and citizens in general. Genetically modified organisms also remains a controversial topic. Pick a controversial topic and write a good essay about it, to inform the reader about this topic. Make sure you can explain why your topic is controversial, and provide information about opposing views, that explains why your topic is controversial. Avoid taking a position yourself (in your essay).

2. You need a clear focus for two reasons: (1) to make the topic manageable and (2) to help provide a purpose for your report.

3. Find at least five sources that relate to your focused topic. It will usually be possible to find hundreds or thousands of sources, so the narrowing of focus can help reduce your research. Educate yourself on you topic before doing one or two interviews, so that you are in a position to ask more pointed and useful questions.

4. Find at least one interviewee that knows something about the topic you examine, and use their input to formulate your essay. You may use two interviewees if you can find two. The best case would be to find two interviewees that with opposing opinions. Describe each interviewee in your opening paragraph, each in one sentence, and explain their position and basis for supposedly being knowledgeable about your topic.

4. Write a report with a clear purpose that is 475-525 words in length.

5. Pay attention to transitions from one major point to another.

6. NO QUOTATIONS! Paraphrase what you interviewee or interviewees say; do not quote.

7. Do not insert yourself into this essay. Your personal likes or dislikes are not relevant to this assignment. Do as good a job as you can do. Review objections made about your earlier essays, and try to avoid repeating cause for any such objections in this essay.

8. Review the Unit Five Ben Franklin and Auxiliary Information documents to remind you how to append your source materials relied upon and how to cite your sources so that your citations do not enter into your word count. When you upload your essay, provide name and contact information for your interviewee in a note associated with your upload.
