The first half of the class was spent going over various items that appeared in the pressure writes from last week. Afterwards, we began looking at writing a precis. Tomorrow we will continue with the precis.
Pressure Write Prompt:
This semester we have touched on influences: those that affect generations, society, and ourselves. Within the last decade there has been increased attention and discussion on the subject of violence in music, film, and television that children enjoy. Some experts argue that the media is one major reason crime rates are on the rise. They believe the violence that youths hear and see through TV, film, and music leads them to behave in violent ways. On the other side of the issue, people say kids can make their own decisions concerning such influences and filmmakers and musicians must be free to create their art.
In a well organized essay, explain your ideas on the subject and be sure to support your thoughts.
