The Importance and Future of Internet in Our Daily Life
The advances in technology have revolutionized the way people communicate, commute and produce products and services (Bargh & McKenna, 2004). In the earlier days, before the advent of the power engine, people used to move from one destination to the other through foot. However, innovations saw the development of power engines and radio communication devices that made it easier to move and communicate. More innovations in the communications saw the development of the internet, which completely revolutionized communication and business. The internet has a number of applications, from business to personal communication. In fact, it is now hard to image a world without an internet.

Why Supporting Local is More Important Than You Think As South Africa battles the twin effects of illness and lockdown the time is ripe to consider carefully how and where South Africans spend their money. There are those who have lots, and those who have little, yet if people understood the power of a single Rand to change the future of the country, everyone might spend it very differently. In 2015, a paper on the negative impact of shopping malls on local economies used research from India, USA and South Africa to explain how the arrival of a glamorous mall sucks the money out of the local community and pulls it away, into the coffers of big business. The counterargument in favour of malls is that small, rural and township dwellers deserve first world shopping, which provide local jobs and convenience, entertainment and better pricing than traditional high street shops. Most township residents would certainly vote for glorious first world shopping and low prices, at least in the first year. By year three however they might notice, for example in the small town of Grabouw or Knysna perhaps, how the main street is deserted. Small businesses that had thrived there for generations are now reduced to mere shells of their former self and replaced by those selling counterfeit, imported T-shirts or cheap bling. The money circulating locally has dwindled, small businesses have closed, many jobs have disappeared, and local wealth departed along with them. By year four or five, the shopping malls also suffer as local buying power is depressed along with the lower employment rate, resulting in an overall downturn in spending. For those who need more convincing, it is important to look at the maths of it. In basic terms it works like this – in the days before the arrival of malls and major chain stores, Mary would spend R10 at the baker; who (assuming a 10% profit retention); would spend R9 at the butcher; who would spend R8 at the tailor; who would spend R7 at the school; who would spend R6 at the stationery store; who would spend R5 at the farmer’s market and so on. A simple illustration of how one R10 note can create wealth ten times over. Recovery and regrowth of South Africa’s economy is our responsibility; now that you know the power of your money, where are you going to spend your next Rand?
Required
2.1 The article refers to ‘the twin effects of illness and lockdown’. Use the Keynesian school to explain how Covid-19 and lockdown would impact the economy. (5 Marks)
2.2 The article states that, ‘A simple illustration of how one R10 note can create wealth ten times over’. What term is used by the Keynesian school to describe this effect of spending and incomes creations? (2 Marks)
2.3 Use the AD/AS model framework to illustrate and explain the effects of Covid-19 and the lockdown on the South African economy. (13 Marks)

ASSIGNMENT REQUIREMENTS
PART I :
**(PART II INSTRUCTIONS ARE NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE BOTH PARTS OF THE ASSIGNMENT)**
To complete the first part of this assignment, you must find an example of great sports writing.
Your writing sample can showcase either broadcast writing or print writing (broadcast is preferred).
Surf sports websites or do a Google search to find the article or video you plan to use for this assignment.
**If you pick a broadcast writing sample, you will need to send me a link from your video source. You do NOT need to have the script written out- just send me a video sample.**
NOTE: Sports debate shows generally aren’t scripted, so do NOT use the debate portion of a debate show for your example. Find something you know is likely scripted (Examples: Scott Van Pelt’s “One Big Thing”, introductions to highlights on SportsCenter, “Face Time” on Around the Horn, local sportscasts).
Prepare a three-to-five minute presentation video breaking down:
1) Why the sample you’ve chosen is effective
2) Why it’s an example of great sports writing
The entire presentation video will be based on your own personal opinion.
*Begin your presentation video by explaining the piece of outstanding sports writing you chose.
*Be sure to include WHY THE SAMPLE YOU’VE CHOSEN IS EFFECTIVE and WHY IT’S AN EXAMPLE OF GREAT SPORTS WRITING.
NOTE: If you choose a broadcast writing clip, you do NOT need to include video of the example of outstanding sports writing you chose in your presentation video. You have the option of including clips of your sample if you want to, but it is NOT MANDATORY.
Part of your presentation video MUST include you on camera performing your material.
*Conclude your presentation video by *reading over* EITHER GRAPHICS OR KEYNOTE/POWERPOINT SLIDES listing your Top 10 list of qualities associated with outstanding BROADCAST WRITERS (note: not broadcasters, BROADCAST WRITERS) and *summarize what each quality means*
**Your Keynote (or PowerPoint) slides need to be edited into your project if you choose to use them.**
**After you show us your Top 10 list in your presentation video, point out which qualities in your Top 10 list were displayed in the writing sample you chose and specifically explain WHERE THEY WERE USED in the piece of writing you chose.**
Again, be sure to edit the Keynote (or PowerPoint) slides into your project on iMovie (or another editing program you’re comfortable with).
*The Keynote slides should match the audio they’re paired with and should appear in the appropriate portions of your presentation video.*
**To do create a video of your slides for editing purposes, create a Keynote (or PowerPoint) presentation with slides for your Top 10 qualities. Go to the top of the page and click on “File” (make sure you’re in the Keynote or PowerPoint program before you do this). Bring your cursor down to “Export To” and then click on “Movie”. You’ll be given options for when to go to the next slide and have any “builds” come onto the screen. I recommend changing the settings to give you 15-20 seconds between slides to give you more leeway for editing them. Once you’ve created your movie file, upload it into iMovie (or whatever editing program you’re using) and proceed to edit the clips into your presentation video.**
**PART II INSTRUCTIONS- REMEMBER: YOU NEED TO COMPLETE BOTH PARTS OF THIS ASSIGNMENT**
PART II:
To complete the second part of this assignment, follow the instructions below:
1) Read the script below and identify the cliches embedded within it:
WHEN IT COMES TO HOCKEY… WAYNE GRETZKY IS IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN.
THE CANADIAN SUPERSTAR HAS BEEN ON TOP OF HIS GAME SINCE HE WAS A TEENAGER… AND NO ONE WILL EVER SURPASS HIS DOMINANCE IN THE SPORT.
SKILLED, SMART, AND POSSESSING THE HEART OF A CHAMPION… GRETZKY WON FOUR STANLEY CUPS… AND RETIRED WITH MORE THAN SIXTY N-H-L STATISTICAL RECORDS.
YOU CAN’T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HIM.
WAYNE GRETZKY’S MORE THAN JUST “THE GREAT ONE”.
HE’S “THE GREATEST ONE”.
REMEMBER: A cliche is defined as “a phrase or opinion that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought”. Cliches are used as a crutch by both athletes and broadcasters. You should try to eliminate using cliches as much as possible in your writing.
2) Rewrite the script replacing the cliches with original language
3) Send me your script in a Word or PDF document
4) Record yourself on camera reading your new script, and send me the video file of your recording
