Prompt I

Writing Situation

Your school board is considering presenting all high school classes online as a means of cutting costs and taking advantage of technology. Consider both situations: realtime, interactive virtual classrooms with all classes conducted online so you could receive instruction while at home, or classrooms filled with students and a teacher inside of a school that you attend all day. Decide how these different modes of education would affect you, your classmates, and the education you receive.

Directions for Writing Write a persuasive column for the newspaper to try to convince the

school board and the community to conduct high-school classes in the way you feel is best. Use your observations and experiences as support for your opinion.
