• its important to recognize that the tools we use to write affect what we write and how those texts are perceived by audiences.
• we can give ourselves some agency over the effect of writing technologies by consciously choosing one technology over another.
• knowing how our tools affect our ability to write well is a tool in and of itself.

Explanation:

The core argument of Eric Brown's "Writing Technologies" is that writing tools shape both the content of writing and audience perception, that writers can exercise agency by choosing tools intentionally, and that understanding this tool impact is itself a valuable skill. The false claim is that handwriting assignments would not affect what is written, as this directly contradicts the central idea that writing technologies influence content.

Answer:

Having to handwrite your assignments for this class would not affect what you write.
