"From Pencils to Pixels"

Baron believes that technology is very useful to Literacy. He feels that it can improve our writing.  In my opinion, I feel like it can improve our writing as well. When I use "Word", to type my essays, its help me if what Im writing doesn't sound right or when ever I misspell and word. Before we started typing on the computer there were many writing technologies we use to use like, typewriters, pencils, and printers. Writing your essays out with pencils is very useful. This helped me with my writing on how to spell words and make it look neat. Also it helped me with how to write letters.  I use to write my essays all the time when I was in elementary school. But by the time I was in middle school, we had to type our essays which I prefer to do that today because I type faster then I can write.  I usually type when I have to do essays, but I usually hand write when Im writing a letters. But like i said already, I rather type because I can typer faster then I can write and typing fixes my errors. If I had to chooses the most convenient, I would have to say writing something out because I don't always have me laptop with me to type things. I think writing my essays have help me out a lot because, I learned how to write first before I began to type so I got use to writing and it help me out with everything. A Disadvantage of pixel technology could be lower resolution. A disadvantage for non-technology WT's would be if you don't have a typewriter or a printer, you would have to write everything. I do believe that literacy has changed as a result of new writing technology. Most people nowadays type everything, whether its for work, school, or anything else.
