Entry Three (Blendspace in library Fri, Mar 4 - due Wed, Mar 9)

Here is the description of your third blogging opportunity, including the Blendspace you will create in the library on Friday:

YOUR TASK: Are we using the Internet, or is the Internet using us?

To answer this question, you will compile a variety of sources into a BLENDSPACE.  Here is my Blendspace for you to consult for the types of texts to gather.

1. You may work alone or in partners. 
2. You must include texts to reveal an understanding – and often a position – on the question above.
3. Altogether, you must contribute 6-10 texts to our discussion of the question if you are working independently, and 12-15 if working in partners.
4. Once you have completed your Blendspace, link it to the blog, and write your individual response to the question there.  Use some of the ideas and evidence in your Blendspace to support your argument.

Compile a variety of text types for your audience to explore:

You Tube videos

TedTalks

Charts and infographics


Blog entries

Wikipedia entries

Political cartoons


Photographs and images

Film/sitcom clips

Social media entries/screen grabs


Tech magazine articles

Other dictionaries and encyclopedias
