Tech vs. Habits

Students engage in comparative reading by analyzing two short essays with opposing viewpoints on climate change solutions. They determine each author’s central claim, identify areas of overlap, and synthesize both perspectives into a concise, unified summary. The worksheet encourages students to evaluate reasoning, evidence, and tone to understand how different approaches-technological innovation versus behavioral change-can be integrated. This task enhances skills in synthesis writing, argument comparison, and critical reading of informational texts.
