Final Assignment: First Thoughts


                For the final assignment,  I plan on talking about Postman’s Technopoly book to answer the prompt: “Are modern-day college campuses technopolies?” The basic argument for this paper would be to discuss how technopoly is affecting higher education. For this, I would need to discuss what technopoly is, and also how higher education is regard in this country. The main point is to discuss the effect of technology on higher education and colleges. With that in mind, I would like to explore how technology has impacted college life and higher education, and to see if technology has affected the intent of higher education. Basically, to see how technology has advanced, and how it affected college life and college education. And to see if there is a technopoly that exists.
                For the paper, I would need to define technopoly and higher education culture. From there, I would see how technology is fitting into our college life and education. I would need to see the technology being used in colleges and those that affect students and their learning. From there, to see how much of it is used for education and to see how it is. I would like to speculate how if certain technology was not present, how it would affect our education. I would need to see how much of our education is based on technology.
