How have these changes contributed to bullying? Now, in a 5-7 paragraph documented essay, answer ONE of the following questions:
OPTION ONE: In what ways has technology changed the way people view or treat women? Has it created more problems with sexual discrimination than in the past, or is sexual discrimination the same as it ever was? Use concrete details from assigned readings to support your claim.
OPTION TWO: In what ways has technology changed the way people interact with each other and how they present themselves? Is cyberbullying easier or different from face to face bullying? Use concrete details from assigned readings to support your claim.
