This sentence appears in our school newsletter this week:
 
 
*The use of technology is not an addition to the curriculum, it is a
change in how curriculum is delivered. *
 
Could you explain why this sentence
and others like it are, evidently, legitimate sentences rather than
examples of run on sentences. I see professional authors doing this type
of sentence repeatedly, and I'm confused by it. I personally would use a
semi-colon  rather than a comma just because someone taught me that not
joining sentences with commas was a rather basic requirement. Help!
