It took too long honestly, but I just realized that Maslows heirarchy of needs can be used in my argument. In a nutshell, the computers simply help our species achieve these needs.
Whenever humans needed better and more efficient products, the answer has been computer technology. Whenever humans grew in population and needed means of storing and organizing information from banks accounts to the basics of your social security, we turned to computers. Whenever new computer technologies are rumored or in the air there is usually some sort of “w” word involved. These “w” words consist of war, want, will, and of course, the “why not?” to list a few. The internet’s basic fundamental functions are here thanks to our military needing more efficient ways to send messages. This can be said for just about every aspect a computer has to offer. They all depend on some WANT or NEED of society.

After today's class I have a pretty good grasp on the ciation format. Using sources correctly is as valuable as sticking to the main object of the paper. 2 more sources to go

Their nice, simple, and to the point. Now just to make sure they are permitted.

Jackpot

I hit the jackpot for sources as long as I can use Ehow.com. They provide examples of how computers help in the fields of Medicine and Education. These, as well as a few journals on the matter should aid in building a strong paper.

The first of many

I have thought about using a source from the 90's on "using computers to support a teachers professional development".
http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/40188589?searchUrl=%2Faction%2FdoBasicSearch%3FQuery%3Dcomputers%2B%26acc%3Doff%26wc%3Don&Search=yes&uid=3739936&uid=2134&uid=2&uid=70&uid=4&uid=3739256&sid=21100689836981
Then, using a more current source such as one from 2011 or 2012 I will further back up the 90's source with more positive research on computers aid in the teaching field.
