In earlier times, surveillance was limited to the information that a supervisor could observe and record firsthand and to the primitive counting devices. In the computer age surveillance can be instantaneous, unblinking, cheap, and, maybe most importantly, easy.

Scholars Carl Botan and Mihaela Vorvoreanu claim that the nature of workplace surveillance has changed over time. Before the arrival of computers, managers could easily collect only small amounts of information about their employees based on what they saw or heard.

5. When to paraphrase? When to quote?
Paraphrase and summarize most of your source material
Do not quote excessively. It is sometimes difficult to integrate smoothly.
Ex: Kizza and Ssanyu observe that technology in the workplace has been accompanied by “an array of problems that needed quick answers,” such as electronic monitoring to prevent security breaches (4).
Quote something if:
The language is especially vivid or expressive
Exact wording is needed for technical accuracy
When the words of authority lend weight to an argument
