use your own words to write a short compare-and-contrast essay that defines and explains three distinct perspectives on the evolution of technology. As you write, imagine you are talking to a friend who has no knowledge of this topic. In short, write the way you speak, using a conversational tone. Also, try to alternate short sentences and longer sentences to make your writing more readable.A Comparison of Three Perspectives on the Evolution of TechnologyMei QuoranYour essay should include five paragraphs, as follows:Paragraph 1 is your lead paragraph. It will contain an overview of what you have to say in comparing and contrasting the perspectives of Gerhard Lenski, Leslie White, and Alvin Toffler with respect to the evolution of technology.Paragraphs 2, 3, and 4, are your body paragraphs.In your essay, use paragraph 2 to describe the perspective of Gerhard Lenski.In paragraph 3, you’ll write about the perspective of Leslie White.In paragraph 4, you’ll describe and discuss the perspective of Alvin Toffler.Paragraph 5 is your summary and conclusion. Here, you’ll compare the three perspectives to show how they are, or may be, similar. You’ll contrast the three perspectives to describe how they’re different. You’ll end this process--and your essay--by expressing your view as to which of these theorists (one or more) offer the most useful insights into the evolution of technology, in your opinion.

Final Project DetailsHuman Growth and Development focuses on human growth and development over the lifespan! This course is important because it gives the student a background in human growth and development from before birth, through childhood, into adulthood, and through death and grief. By the end of this course, students will walk away with a broad understanding of the processes and influences affecting the developing person. The focus is on biological, social, emotional, and intellectual aspects across the lifespan, and individual application is emphasized. Thus, to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the 9-week course content, you are being asked to create a “poster” or power point of your own individual growth and development. For full credit, your poster should include:  Name and Date of Birth (5 pts)
 Weight at time of birth (10 pts)
 Bonus points if you are able to accurately identify what type of labor and delivery that your mom experienced when you were born: natural child birth or C-section (+5 pts)
 Pictures of yourself or another person at the time of birth or as a newborn and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)
 Pictures of yourself or another person during the span from 1 month- 11 months and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)  Pictures of yourself or another person from 1-3 years old and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts) Pictures of yourself or another person from 3-5 years old and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)  Pictures of yourself or another person from 6-10 years old and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)
 Pictures of yourself or another person from 11-13 years old and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)  Pictures of yourself or another person from 14-19 years old and describe two developmental milestones for this age. (10 pts)

 Picture of yourself or someone 40-65 years old and describe one developmental milestone for this age group. (5 pts)
 Picture of someone 65 years and older and describe one developmental milestone for this age group. (5 pts) Be sure to label what age the picture is representing, and provide an explanation. You do NOT have to have a picture for every month or every year but at least ONE during each time frame/stage! As you can see, the more pictures/stages you can find…the better!

Read Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest",finish 2 discussionDiscussion 1:"Earnest" Posting:Wilde's play is full of amusing and profound lines. Choose 1 funny line and 1 deep line and explain why you like those lines of dialogue.What makes that line humourous? How thoughtful is that second line?Discussion 2: pick any 1Earnest 2nd Posting:There are several topics to consider posting a comment on:1. In some ways Cecily and Gwendolen see interchangeable--both are sweet, vain, witty and spoiled women. It might be difficult for an audience to separate the characters on stage. Think like a director, actor, or costume designer and make a posting that explains how you might go about individualizing these two characters so as to lessen the confusion for spectators and readers. Explain the rationale behind your choice.2. Pretend that you are the stage manager for a production of the play. Make an inventory of all the props/furniture needed for either Act I, II, or III. Would this be a difficult and expensive play to produce based upon the number and types of props needed?3. Is there any one character who is wittier and funnier than the others? If so, then explain who it is and give a few examples of their lines to prove your point.4. After reading about the dandy in the notes, design a suitable costume for either Algy or Jack or Lady Bracknell. How would they be dressed?5. Find an example of a paradox or epigram in the play. Explain its use.6. Throughout the play the characters make rather confident statements about what is morally right and wrong. Find one of these comments and explain whether or not they approve or disapprove of it, and if it is a serious or trivial topic.7. The play is first and foremost a comedy. But a number of serious topics are dealt with the play. Give an example from the play, then choose a recent TV of film comedy and compare how it mixes comedic elements with more serious issues.8. How rich of a resource is Wilde's play for finding out about late 19th century life in England? Choose a quotation from the play under one of these headings that tells us something about how affluent people lived in the 1890s:education/marriage/religion/food and drink/ servants/clothes/transport/entertainment/politics/money/romance/death/class.Choose 1 word from the list to answer. Provide analysis and examples.9. What moments of farce can you see in the play? Give an example.10. Provide a detailed character sketch of Lady Bracknell. What kind of personality does she have? Give an example from the play.12. Provide a profile of Canon Chasuble or Miss Prism. What kind of character are they? What is the play satirizing through that character? Explain.13. Explore the interview scene between Lady Bracknell and Jack in Act I. What makes the scene amusing, tense, and what do we learn about late 19th century British society?14. Explore the tea party scene between Gwendolen and Cecily. What makes it so humourous and an example of comedy of manners?15. Miss Prism's name is a pun on misprision. What are the links between that word and the play? Explain and give examples.16. Is there a line in the play that best illustrates the concept of aestheticism, decadence, or fin de siecle? Explain.
