These Web activities encourage students of The Norton Reader to discover new ways to think and write about selected essays. Each set of activities begins with a Biography section that includes links to Web sites that offer information about the essay's author. The Writing Assignments include links to sites that will help a student research an essay or brainstorm about a topic it raises. Finally, a Connections section suggests ways to compare and contrast the essay with other pieces in The Norton Reader.
