Your Assignment: Your school newspaper is running a special issue on the history of technology. Knowing that
you've done some research on the subject, your teacher encourages you to write an
explanatory essay about electronic and digital trash. The audience for your essay will be
other students, teachers, and parents.
Using more than one source, craft a thesis to explain the relationship between advancing
technology and digital trash. Once you have a thesis, select the most relevant information
from more than one source to support your thesis. Then, write a multi-paragraph explanatory
essay explaining your thesis. Clearly organize your explanatory essay and elaborate your
ideas. Develop your ideas clearly and use your own words, except when quoting directly
from the sources. Be sure to reference the source title or number when quoting or
paraphrasing details or facts from the sources.
