Grade 10 Hmwk ~ Due October 12th

We have just read Issac Asimov 's "All the Troubles of the World".  For the next few classes we will explore the genre of science fiction.  For homework, search through magazines or visit the web to find an interesting article about technology.  Where is technology taking us?  How does it shape our lives?  How is changing the way we live and how might it change our future?  Consider also, some of the social and ethical implications that arise through advances in technology.  Please be prepared to share your article AND your thoughts about it.  What connections can you make between issues with technology today and the underlying message presented in Asimov's story?
