Your introduction is good and shows your work, however you have lifted large chunks of writing off then internet and dropped them into your paper as if they were your own words. This is considered plagiarism and colleges deal with this harshly. You must attribute text from elsewhere by putting it in quotes and naming the source.

computers has been a turning point to society because of there advanced thechnology and there positive and negative effects on families and the literature. between people like bibliophilies and the technophilies both of this two groups started to rise important questions about computers and books. the future of the book is rising alot of rumors and questions about computers replacing literature, foe example people said that in a few years, books are going to change into books in computers. but not just computers and literature is a big turning point on society, but also families and computers are important to our society. there are two versions about computers and families that are confusing and really true about it. in one hand, people said that computers are helping there childrens with there homeworks and there grades, but not just there childrens, but also computers are helping people to communicate with there families that are outside the country or family member's that live far away. but on the other hand, families also said that they have alot of problems with there childrens and even with the husband/wife. people also said that computers are affecting people's way of interacting with there own society. but another negative point on computers and families would be familes health, families are now more unhealthier and the rate of families that exercise have been to low because of computers and many more things that of course thechnology has something to be with.
Computers have played a significant role in all aspects of American life ever since they came into existence in the late 20th century. They have shaped and molded the way people live and interact. People once questioned the harms and benefits a computer would give a child and there familie's. the company lexmark report on computing and the family provides evidence that computers are having a good positive impacts on families and are helping to provide solutions for some of the important challenges facing families today, including education, communication and financial issues.a really good example of the positive impacts of computers in families would be education. proffesionals and people that have a family said that computers is a really good effort for their childrens grades and there homeworks. having a computer at home is a good help even most parents agree that using a computer has helped their children become more creative, and they also said that their children would not do as well in chool if they did not own a personal computer. and because of this, there childrens grades have improved through use of a computer printer, because they use it for printing projects and homeworks.
Another way that computers are a good impact to families would be the communication that a computer provides for all member of a family.computers in families is also a good deal or issue and especially in communication and especially to family who in a different country. keeping in touch with family and friends is one of the most frequently mentioned aspects of computer ownership. in fact, 63% of those who use the computers to communicate said that they are better able to stay in contact with these people specially bacause of on-line access.
As computers have become less expensive they have been purchased by more and more families for their homes. Because of this, many children begin to use computers at an early age. Even if computers are not available in their home, children almost certainly will begin to come into contact with computers in school.Some adults are amazed by how readily young children use computers. Many children find that using computers gives them a sense of power and accomplishment. And, unlike many adults whose first or primary contact with computers is work related, most children first use computers for entertainment purposes and games. This is by no means the only use that children have for computers. Children also use computers for accessing information, as well as for writing stories and research papers.In addition, children use a variety of learning programs, which either seek to teach or reinforce basic skills in math, language, reading, and other subjects. Other software allows children to draw pictures or create visual works of art and self-expression. Communication with others is growing as an application of computers by children, particularly as more homes and schools gain access to the Internet. As computers continue to become more powerful, increasing numbers of children are using computers to create multimedia presentations and even web sites that include pictures, text, audio, and even video.
but on the other hand, computers are also affecting families.In a new survey of 1,001 adults, 65 percent said they spent more time with their computers than their spouse or significant other, according to Los Angeles-based Kelton Research, which released the findings yesterday. The computer/user "relationship" is intensifying, the survey found, noting that 84 percent say we've grown more dependent on our computers in the last three years. Harmony is not a built-in feature either: 52 percent of us take our computer's failures personally, feeling anger, sadness or alienation if the computer did not cooperate or perform well. An additional 19 percent admitted they have wanted to strike their computers.Americans' relationship with their computers are affecting their relationship with family and friends, as nearly three fourths -- 74 percent of Americans -- say they bring their computer problems home with them. Researchers were afraid that computers would instigate a loss of socialization among young children. Numerous experiments, such as ones performed by Allison Druin and Michael Scaife, have been targeted at the effects computers have on children. For many people, the basic definition of socialization would be the adoption of the behavior patterns around the surrounding culture. Many experiments have been targeted at the effects computers have on children’s socialization skills. For example, one of the various questions that has arisen is if the lack of physicality in the virtual world is an aid to a child’s self-expression or a hindrance to his or her individuation. Despite the large number of research projects, scientists still do not know all the behavioral, cognitive, or emotional influences that these interactive products have on children. another turning point that computers have in socirty would be on the literature. people said that literature have been replaced by computers, but the real thing would be that for example, the The author, William Crossman, a self-described futurist, argues that within the next fifty years written language will be obsolete in the developed world, and in another hundred years, text will be entirely extinct. That struck me as an extraordinary prediction, but more extraordinary still was the thesis of the article: the death of written language is a good thing.in the United States and other electronically-developed countries, we’re witnessing nothing less than the abandonment of reading and writing .and in its place, the recreation of oral culture. There are holes in Crossman’s thesis big enough to drive a New York Times delivery truck through. He claims that most people prefer speaking to writing, but is that always true? Of course it’s usually preferable to speak to someone in person or over the phone than to write them a letter, but does that mean writing is obsolete? What an idiotic notion. How are writers to write without writing? Does Crossman expect that people will dictate their letters, articles, stories, proposals, grocery lists, love notes and lecture materials to VIVO computers, and “proofread” by having the computer read it back to them? Yes, that is exactly what he expects. How are statistics to be analyzed, records kept, data compiled? How are instructions to be given? How is history to be passed down accurately from generation to generation? All through talking computers with optional graphical interfaces, according to Crossman. “There will be no compelling reason for schools to teach literacy skills,” he writes, as though rendering the entire planet. a benefit that computers can have on literature will be to t hose people who dont have on money effort to spend on books that are too spency, but they also dont have the money to spend for a computer, but they can go to the library to use the computer.
Children can use computers in effective and positive ways. Positive uses of computers by children are developmentally appropriate and can reinforce the attainment of desirable skills and traits such as math mastery, verbal language use, and cooperation skills. Computers, however, can also be used in ways that may be harmful to the child. Possible harmful effects from computers, such as repetitive motion injuries and eyestrain, most often stem from overuse of computers and use of computers that are positioned inappropriately for children. If children are to use computers, they should be taught to limit their computer use to reasonable lengths of time. They should be supervised appropriately while using computers in ways that might expose them to inappropriate material or practices.
ouline paper
Step One - Decide on your topic.
my main topic is how computers had affected our society. but my two topics of this main topic are: how do computers had affected literature. and the last topic is: how do computers had affected family.
Step 2 – Develop questions on your topic.
literature
1) are computes replacing literature?
2)is literature more important than computers?
3) are computers more important than literature?
4)what do people prefer, computers or literature?
5) why people prefer more computers than literature?
family
1) are computers affecting family?
2) are kids more interstign in computers than in going out?
3)do computers make children smarter?
4)how do computers affect kida and parents? 5)how do computers affect children's desire to socialize?
6)are computers is an issue to parent or to the companies?
Step 3 – Gather information
family research
1) the company "lexmark report on computing and the american family" provides evidence that computers are having a good pisitive impacts on families and are helping to provide solutins for some of the important challenges facing families today, including education, communication and financial issues.
2)most of the parents agree that using a pc unit has helped their children become more creative, and they also said that their children would not do as well in school if they did not own a personal computer. and bacause of this, there children's grades have improved through use of a computer printer, because they use it for printing projects and homeworks.
3)computers in families is also a good deal or issue and especially in communication and especially to family who in a different country. keeping in touch with family and friens is one of the most frequently mentioned aspects of computer ownership. in fact, 63% of those who use the computers to communicate said that they are better able to stay in contact with these people specially bacause of on-line access.
4) but in the other hand,Computers have played a significant role in all aspects of American life ever since they came into existence in the late 20th century. They have shaped and molded the way people live and interact. People once questioned the harms and benefits a computer would give a child. Their belief was that children who relied on these machines would lose their individuality, get out of touch with their own cultural roots, and confuse actual reality with virtual reality [5].

Step 4 – Group your facts
1) not affecting family
computers are not affecting family, insted they are helping families to get communication with there family members that are out of country, but they are also helping childrens with there homeworks, and there grades have been improved because they used computer printer.
2) affecting family
on the other hand, people believe that computers are also affecting the family relationship.people are afraid thatcomputers would instigate a loss of socialization among young children.For many people, the basic definition of socialization would be the adoption of the behavior patterns around the surrounding culture. they also ask there selfs if computers would also cause a lack of physicality in the virtual world is an aid to a child’s self-expression or a hindrance to his or her individuation. but scientist are not sure weather this products like computers are affecting childrens and there families.

He describes written language as a “bridge,” constructed 10,000 years ago by our stone age ancestors and necessary to societal development until very recently, about to be replaced by VIVO computers Spoken language is the most natural form of communication for humans, Crossman convincingly argues. Most written languages are, afterall, merely symbolic translations of the spoken language. People were speaking long before they were writing. Doesn’t a return to a predominantly oral culture, aided by technology, make a kind of sense.
