1. Find a NEWS article that addresses a recent technological development or the impact of a technological innovation on society. For example, there are many news articles about the impact of cell phone use on human cognition, social media on self-esteem or elections, gene editing, renewable energy, etc. (A news article is an article from a media source like a newspaper or magazine such as the New York Times, FOX, The Washington Post, VICE, etc. that addresses a current event. It does not include sources like Wikipedia, eHow, dictionaries, academic journals, or other information websites.)
2. Write a minimum 300 word essay that answers the following questions:
   1. Based on the article you chose, how is the technological innovation described?
   2. According to the article, what is the impact of the technological innovation on human society and culture? How is this similar to previous technological innovations discussed in the book?
   3. How do you imagine the technology discussed will develop in the future, i.e. what do think the long-term impact will be?
