READING:   Chapter 3 “Books”
QUIZ:   Chapter 3 Quiz on Blackboard

DISCUSSION:  We’ve got to write an editorial on the decline in readership among the youth of today and I’m struggling to describe what the aliterate world of the future may look like.  What will society be like if fewer and fewer people read books or anything longer than a page? Will society get better or worse? Pick a side and support your argument. If you pick the bad side, explain what can be done to change the course of humanity.
