When the telephone was first invented, it had a profound impact on communications. Technology has had a profound impact particularly over the last two centuries. Ironically, there is concern that the options for communication and electronic devices have actually resulted in less communication. The nature of social media makes it possible for people to communicate anonymously, which can lead to online abuse and bullying. It does seem sad that even though we have so many forms of communication, some people still feel so alone.

excerpt adapted from
Early Factory Labor in New England
by Harriet H. Robinson
In 1832, Lowell was little more than a factory village. Five "corporations" were started, and the cotton mills belonging to them were building. Help was in great demand and stories were told all over the country of the new factory place, and the high wages that were offered to all classes of work-people. These stories reached the ears of mechanics' and farmers' sons and gave new life to solitary and dependent women in distant towns and farmhouses.
The working hours of all the girls extended from five o'clock in the morning until seven in the evening, with one half-hour each, for breakfast and dinner.
Those of the mill-girls who had homes generally worked from eight to ten months in the year. The rest of the time was spent with parents or friends. A few of these girls taught school during the summer months. Their life in the factory was made pleasant to them. In those days, there was no need of advocating the doctrine of the proper relation between employer and employed. Help was too valuable to be ill-treated.
Passage 2
excerpt from
The Spirit of Discontent
by anonymous
"I will not stay in Lowell any longer; I am determined to give my notice this very day," said Ellen Collins, as the earliest bell was tolling to remind us of the hour for labor.
"Why, what is the matter, Ellen? It seems to me you have dreamed out a new idea! Where do you think of going? and what for?"
"I am going home, where I shall not be obliged to rise so early in the morning, nor be dragged about by the ringing of a bell, nor confined in a close noisy room from morning till night. I will not stay here; I am determined to go home in a fortnight."
"And so, Ellen," said I, "you think it unpleasant to rise so early in the morning and be confined in the noisy mill so many hours during the day. And I think so, too. All this, and much more, is very annoying, no doubt. But we must not forget that there are advantages, as well as disadvantages, in this employment, as in every other. If we expect to find all sunshine and flowers in any station in life, we shall most surely be disappointed. We are very busily engaged during the day; but then we have the evening to ourselves, with no one to dictate to or control us.

Nonfiction: In mid-November, 1805, Lewis and Clark and their Corps of Discovery finally reached the Pacific Ocean. The expedition had left St. Louis over a year and a half earlier in order to locate the mythical "Northwest Passage," supposedly a series of rivers that would connect the east and west coasts of North America. But it didn't exist, and instead they came upon the jagged peaks of the Rocky Mountains and found only great hardship and suffering. But they persevered and pushed forward to the Pacific, where they hoped to find passage home by ship. With none to be found, they constructed Fort Clatsop and waited through another bitter winter, suffering more misery and sickness, until the weather broke and the Corps of Discovery headed east for St. Louis in late March 1806.
Fiction: The men of the Corps of Discovery scrambled down the sandy dune like children romping in a snowstorm. They charged toward the endless expanse of grey, churning water, as if touching it could erase the struggle and suffering of the last eighteen months. One by one, though, their heads moved from the hypnotic, lapping surf to the space just above the horizon line, searching for a mast or a sail, or any sign of a sailing vessel moving in the distance. And when none could be found, each face glazed over with the understanding that the journey they thought was complete was only halfway done. One by one they turned from the rhythmic, lulling Pacific and faced east, looking at the thick forests and angry mountains they had hoped never to enter again.
First, identify a way in which both accounts are similar. Then explain how information is presented differently in the fictionalized account and what effect the different presentation of events has on the reader.

"Your face is the same as everybody has—the two eyes, so—” (marking their places in the air with this thumb) "nose in the middle, mouth under. It’s always the same. Now if you had the two eyes on the same side of the nose, for instance—or the mouth at the top—that would be some help.” "It wouldn’t look nice,” Alice objected. But Humpty Dumpty only shut his eyes and said, "Wait till you’ve tried.” Alice waited a minute to see if he would speak again, but as he never opened his eyes or took any further notice of her, she said "Good-bye!” once more, and, getting no answer to this, she quietly walked away. Why does Alice leave Humpty Dumpty in this passage? because she is ashamed of him because she wants to be cruel to him because he stops communicating with her because he laughs at her appearance

Read the excerpt from “Pakistan’s Malala.”
But this was not how Malala decided she would live. With the encouragement of her father, she began believing that she was stronger than the things that scared her. "The Taliban have repeatedly targeted schools in Swat," she wrote in an extraordinary blog when she was empowered to share her voice with the world by the BBC. She was writing around the time the Taliban issued a formal edict in January 2009 banning all girls from schools. On the blog, she praised her father, who was operating one of the few schools that would go on to defy that order.

In this activity, you’ll conduct research about the savanna biome, a type of grassland. Use credible websites to gather information on these points:
the location of the savanna on Earth
the conditions in the savanna (temperature, precipitation, etc.)
the living things that make up this ecosystem (Identify all forms: plants, prey animals, and predators, for example.)
the nonliving components that make up the environment
After you’ve completed your research, answer the following questions.
Part A
Summarize your research, and describe the attributes of the savanna.
On Earth, savannas cover half of the surface of Africa and large areas of Australia, South America, and India. Based on their locations, they could have either tropical climates (humid and wet) or more desert-like climates (hot and dry). Annual precipitation averages at around 30 - 50 inches per year. During the dry season, less than about 4 inches fall. Some prey animals include giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, water buffalo, and ostriches. Some predators include cheetahs, lions, leopards, and hyenas. Other animals which are too big or strong to be prey but are not predators could be hippos, rhinos, and elephants. A short list of plants that live in the savanna could include grasses (Rhoades grass, red oats grass, lemongrass, etc.). Very few trees live in the savanna due to low rainfall in small areas, but the most common trees are acacia, bushwillows, baobabs, or spurge. Some abiotic (nonliving) factors in the savanna could be soil, rocks, small lakes or streams, or the wind.

Dancing flames, Sparkling in the dark, Touching upon the cold frost.
Would winter be so ever exhausting?
"Take out the gloves, coats, hats. Say goodbye to the common summer mishaps," the people cry.
For it reminds and touches the heart which would not stop beating-
Soft landing flakes, quiet as though it thought itself as a mouse.
Bodies of water shiver and shake,
Freezing and thawing, the old waters take.
For every winter, it signals the start of a chilling break.

Answer:
View the improvement of students’ writing as your responsibility.
Teaching writing is not only the job of the English department alone. Writing is an essential tool for learning a discipline and helping students improve their writing skills is a responsibility for all faculty.
Let students know that you value good writing.
Stress the importance of clear, thoughtful writing. Faculty who tell students that good writing will be rewarded and poor writing will be penalized receive better essays than instructors who don't make such demands. In the syllabus, on the first day, and throughout the term, remind students that they must make their best effort in expressing themselves on paper. Back up your statements with comments on early assignments that show you really mean it, and your students will respond.
Regularly assign brief writing exercises in your classes.
To vary the pace of a lecture course, ask students to write a few minutes during class. Some mixture of in-class writing, outside writing assignments, and exams with open-ended questions will give students the practice they need to improve their skills.
Ask students to analyze each other's work during class, or ask them to critique their work in small groups. Students will learn that they are writing in order to think more clearly, not obtain a grade. Keep in mind, you can collect students' papers and skim their work.
Find other faculty members who are trying to use writing more effectively in their courses.
Remind students that writing is a process that helps us clarify ideas.
Tell students that writing is a way of learning, not an end in itself. Also let them know that writing is a complicated, messy, nonlinear process filled with false starts. Help them to identify the writer's key activities
Share with your class your own struggles in grappling with difficult topics. If they know that writing takes effort, they won't be discouraged by their own pace or progress. One faculty member shared with students their notebook that contained the chronology of one of his published articles: first ideas, successive drafts, submitted manuscript, reviewers' suggested changes, revised version, galley proofs, and published article.
Give students opportunities to talk about their writing.
Encourage students to revise their work.
Provide formal steps for revision by asking students to submit first drafts of papers for your review or for peer critique. You can also give your students the option of revising and rewriting one assignment during the semester for a higher grade. Faculty report that 10 to 40 percent of the students take advantage of this option.
Explain thesis statements.
A thesis statement makes an assertion about some issue. A common student problem is to write papers that present overviews of facts with no thesis statement or that have a diffuse thesis statement.
Stress clarity and specificity.
The more the abstract and difficult the topic, the more concrete the student's language should be. Inflated language and academic jargon camouflage rather than clarify their point.
Explain the importance of grammar and sentence structure, as well as content.
Students shouldn't think that English teachers are the only judges of grammar and style. Tell your students that you will be looking at both quality of their writing and the content.
Distribute bibliographies and tip sheets on good writing practices.
Check with your English department or writing center to identify materials that can be easily distributed to students. Consider giving your students a
