Answer:
Let's discuss the meaning of these modifiers first.
A misplaced modifier, as the name suggests, is a word that modifies the wrong word, thus changing the meaning of the sentence (An old child's shirt was used to stop the bleeding - this would suggest that a shirt belonged to an old child, which is highly unlikely. Correct way to say this is A child's old shirt was used...)
A dangling modifier is a modifier that can not be logically connected to the word it modifies, most often because the word it modifies is left out of the sentence (When five years old, my mom remarried - it would be absurd if someone married, let alone remarried at the age of five. This modifier lacks the word it modifies: when I was five years old, my mom remarried).
We can conclude that the correct way to revise these sentences is to change a modifier's place (if misplaced) or add its modifying word (if dangling).
In our example, we see that the map was useless because someone (possibly the reader) was confused by its symbols. However, the confused reader is left out of this sentence, so it might seem as if the map was confused, which is highly illogical.
So, this is an example of a <em>dangling modifier</em> and the best way to revise this sentence is to add a missing modifying word.
"Since Jack was confused by the symbols, the map was useless" could be one of the correct revisions.
Answer:
Today's jobs are all going in the direction of technology. We are very technologically advanced now and many and it is demanded that Many jobs today also require that you have some sort of degree earned in higher education. The reason being is because we are not only taught skills and useful information for our professions, but also ways of critically thinking.
Explanation:
STEM has become the primary focus in today's education systems of United States. While in the past degrees wouldn't necessarily be needed for most of our professions, it is almost a requirement now. In fact, previously, there were many highschool teachers that were (and still are) professors with just an undergrade degree. Now, a graudate degree is required in order to be a professor. There is so much more to learn now and so much more to keep up with. Either you develop your skills and maintain them in order to keep up with all the changes and demands of your job or you earn a degree which automatically shows that you have certain skills in a particular area. The former is harder to prove that you are adequately skilled and trained in something than the later. This is why there has been such a change in the demand for higher education. A high school degree just doesn't adequately prepare you enough for the better paying jobs. Think about all that a STEM degree requires: lot of maths, sciences, and you to be able to think in a different way and be able to be great at problem solving. This cannot possibly be all fit into a highschool education!
