Write an essay in response to Noel Sharkey's "The Ethical Frontiers of Robotics." This assignment asks you to relate your own ideas to those in Sharkey's article. To successfully complete this writing task, you must draw on information from both the text and your personal experiences. Do not assume that your audience has read "The Ethical Frontiers of Robotics."
Here are some questions to consider when developing your personal response to the text. You do not need to answer the questions in order, and you DO NOT need to answer all of these questions in your paper.
- How do the ideas in the text connect with my own ideas? What associations can I make?
- What experiences have I had that relate to the text? What experiences might I have in the future?
- Is there anything in the text that I agree with, reject, or wonder about?
- Am I drawn to particular words, phrases, or sentences?
- Does the text contain ideas that lead me to speculate, reflect, or make predictions?
- What images does the text create in my mind?
- What else in the text do I relate to?
