psa project
English Assignment Help This project can be done through PowerPoint, Google Slide Show, or Prezi. You are persuading your audience to take action on a current social issue. For example: Social distancing can save lives; Donate Blood, Stop Smoking, etc. You can choose your own topic; however, it should not be a topic that we have already used in class. Email me your topic if you are unsure if your topic is acceptable. You should have at least eight content slides and an additional works cited slide and title slide for a total of 10 slides.
Here is a link to examples of how to make a PSA slideshow and examples of Slideshow PSAs. You do not have to do your PSA the same as the examples. You have creative control.

A Critical Response of Nicholas Carr, “Is Google Making Us Stupid?”, not simply agree or disagreeing with the subject,
A Critical Response of Nicholas Carr, “Is Google Making Us Stupid?”, not simply agree or disagreeing with the subject, but rather a critical examination of the text. With a strong emphasis on a good/strong thesis clearly governing a well reasoned discussion as well a good use of textual evidence to support reasoning, however not overreliance on quotation. There need to be a small research element of the paper, at lest the use of two other authoritative sources to support the discussion.
Any questions just hit me up, Thanks
Additional Notes
I really like The Judgment of Thamus story and how Nicholas Carr makes use of it, if you think its relevant to the discussion you make.
