Choose one of the following options for your Post #1.
Option #1: Terminology
Choose five terms from the vocabulary list for this week that are new to you or discussed in our readings in a way you have not thought about. Make sure you choose a few terms from the readings on culture and a few from the readings on technology.
For each of your five terms:
1. Provide a brief definition in your own words. This should be a paraphrase of the definition from one of the readings. Please see tips on paraphrasing here.
2. Cite where you got the definition from in MLA format.
3. Explain in a few sentences how you think this term might help you look at technology and culture in a new way in this class.
