Extra Credit

This is an extra credit assignment for those students who would like to improve their grades. The assignment is due on Monday, Sept. 23.

First:
The first part of the assignment is to watch the TED Talk titled, "Apollo Robbins: The art of misdirection."



Second:
Write a 5 paragraph essay explaining how "Frank" is related to what we learned in class about multitasking. Your essay should have:

1) an introduction paragraph
2) three detail paragraphs
    a)  The first detail paragraph should explain who "Frank" is.
    b)  The second detail paragraph should explain how Frank relates
         to our topic of multitasking.

    c)  The third detail paragraph should explain how this information
         can help you be a better student.

3) a conclusion paragraph

Make sure your essay is well written. Do your best.

Oh, and I know this requires a lot of thinking on your part. That's the point.


If you want to review the information about multitasking, here's a link to the partially completed Bubble Map for the multitasking article. You spent two days in class working on that Bubble Map, so you should have it finished. And here's a link to the multitasking article.
