Communication Technology Essay
This Communication Technology Essay is about how relationships have
been impacted. This is the question:
Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed
because of technology. 
In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships people
make? 
Is this a positive or negative development?
You should be able to see that there are two parts that need to be answered:
1. In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships people
make? 
2. Is this a positive or negative development?
The first part is about general effects and the second part is asking for your
opinion about this.

So it doesn't easily fit into an essay 'type'.
Don't worry about this. If you have learned to recognize different types of
essay but you find one that does not seem to fit any, just focus on working
out exactly what you are being asked. 
So in this one you have to brainstorm some ideas about the way relationships
have changed. 
Stating your Opinion
For the second part you need to decide if it is positive or negative, or both. 
Choosing one side and writing about it is probably the simplest way to
approach it. In other words:

---

Body 1: The way relationships have changed
Body 2: The negative impacts (or positive)
Although it says 'positive or negative', it's YOUR opinion, so if you decide it
is both it is fine to say this as long as you make it clear. 
In this model Communication Technology Essay, the writer has stated that it
is both positive and negative.
Body 1: The way relationships have changed (positive)
Body 2: The negative impacts
When you take a look at the model answer, you'll see the writer has
discussed the new types of relationships and labelled them as positive, but
then gone on to look at the negative sides.
There are usually several ways you can approach and organize an essay, not
just one. As long as it is coherent and answers the question, that is fine. 
Now take a look at the model answer and the comments below.
