Revised Thesis: With the introduction of the internet, education has taken a turn for the best and is now available to a more diverse amount of people.

I. Introduction
A. Imagine a world without the internet. This is how the world was twenty years ago.
B. new opportunities are opening for employees, who work at the offices in geographically
dispersed locations, such as possibility to communicate, share and collaborate in order to
achieve common business goals.
C. thesis
II. The effect of the internet on higher education
A. The announcement of the internet was translated by some education authorities to be a
signal that libraries-and even classrooms were dead. Nothing couls be further from the
truth.
B.This study suggests that both transformational and transactional leadership styles are
equally effective across communication media in teams completing short-term, problem
solving tasks. Furthermore, this research provides additional confirmation that the
communication media through which teams communicate influence certain aspects of their
interactions and cohesiveness.
III. The effect of the internet on lower education
A. The case of a legitimate classroom task turning up an unsuitable web page. This could
happen despite the best of intentions, although it is more likely to be mischievous behavior
by a student. You would immediately deal with it as you would any incident in the
classroom.
i. this introduces a topic of moral and ethical responsibility
IV. How the internet has made education available to more people
V. Conclusion
A. Education has failed to take in account of how much the world has changed during the
information technology revolution. It proceeds as though thw world is the same as before-
just more technologized.
B. The invention and popular use of micro- computers, the global communications system
enabled by satellite and fiber optic cables the transmission of television programs around
and across the world, the process of digitalization of data, the portability of communications
devices-these are all part of our present and almost bound to be part of the future in which
the effects of global communications will be felt in our everyday lives.

  1. Imagine a world without the internet. Without the information superhighway at your finger tips. This is how the world was twenty years ago.The internet has brought in a technology revolution. More information is available to more people and "new opportunities are opening for employees, who work at the offices in geographically dispersed locations."(cite!!!) They can now "communicate, share and collaborate in order to achieve common business goals."(CITE!!!) This has made it necessary to learn how to effectively learn how to use the internet.This is why the internet is integrated into education, to help students gain the experience they will need in the work field. With the introduction of the internet, education has taken a turn for the best and is now available to a more diverse amount of people.

  2. On the comment before..... Tense change in the third sentence. Use verb choices in PH page 231.

    Paraphrase:

    Although the media you use effects the interactions and cohesiveness of the group, the overall task is completed with the same thoroughness.
