Technology plays an important role in writing today. When looking for factual information or opinionated statements to include in a paper, the internet can be a very useful resource. Along with easy access to information, technology has allowed writing to become an easier way to write and communicate. With computers and tablets, papers can be typed verses being hand written. Typing can greatly improve efficiency and many writing programs online have tools to assist in your grammar, punctuation, and formatting. For example, spell check is very helpful when typing as it corrects spelling automatically. There are also links to a thesaurus and dictionary that can broaden your vocabulary. Another upside to technology would be the fast communication. Technology can improve faster communication through email, social media, and blogs. Sending an email is much more efficient than a hand written letter that would need to be sent through the mail. Posting and sending messages online are an effective way to communicate and saves a lot of time.
