Write a short summary and analysis response of some of the main ideas we have read about in class so far.Â
Your summary and evaluation should respond to the following questions and should organize its ideas using paragraphs. However, this is not a traditional essay, so you do not need to add an introduction or conclusion.
1) First, summarize Cathy O’Neil’s argument from her first chapter. Strong and effective summaries will be concise and accurate. Imagine that your reader is somewhat familiar with O’Neil’s work, but needs a good reminder of her main points.
2) Then, summarize one example of the algorithms or technologies we’ve read about so far. Imagine that as readers we are not familiar with that particular example. We need to know – what is the algorithm or technology? What problem is it supposed to solve? Why? What reasoning, if any is available, do the creators offer?
3) Finally, evaluate the example. By evaluate, I mean that you should make an informed judgment about it. Is it a strong idea? Based on what you have read and what we have discussed in class, will it totally solve the problem? Will it partially solve the problem? Will it do more harm than good? Or does it have strengths and weaknesses? Offer some reasoning for why you have come to this judgment.

Questions we will use to evaluate your writing on this assignment:
Does the writing accurately and concisely summarize O’Neil’s argument about algorithm models, how they work, and why they are “opinions” embedded in code?
Does the writing accurately and concisely summarize one of the examples of an algorithm or technology we’ve discussed so far for the audience?
Does the writing evaluate the chosen example? Do they offer some reasoning for this judgment?
Does the writing attempt to cite sources using MLA formatting practices?
Are the ideas presented clearly and in a reader-friendly way? Does the writing “show” more than tell?
