For this assignment, you will be writing a Technology Autobiography in which you:
o Explore and expand your definitions of technology.
o Identify key moments, people, and places in your personal relationships with technology.
o Write an autobiographical essay that explores your relationship to technology.
o Apply your knowledge of various sentence structures in your writing.
Review Examples of Technology Autobiographies written by Michigan Tech Publication Management Students during Fall 1999, as well as “A Technology Autobiography” by Krista L. Arola in lesson 5.1.
You can use the Technology Autobiography Heuristic as a way to start brainstorming and outlining your ideas.
Write a 2-3 page autobiographical narrative paper that explores the significant interactions you have had with technology during your life and analyzes what those interactions reveal about you (and, if appropriate, others).
o Your paper will tell readers what kind of technology user you are by sharing details about your key experiences with technology.
o Your paper should be written in chronological order, but you may use other structures (such as flashback or flashforward) if they make sense for your story.
o Organize your experiences into a paper that explains how you became the technology user you are today.
o Autobiographies usually use first-person, so you can use first-person pronouns as you tell your story; you can use “I” in your paper.
o Finally, be sure to use concrete details in your story. Use strong, specific information to make the significance of your interactions with technology clear to your readers.
