Media and Information Literacy

SYNTHESIS Describe how new technologies have led to the convergence of traditional and new media. An important development with the growth of digital media has been the move from a traditional communication model of ‘one to many’, characteristic of print and broadcast media, to a ‘peer to peer’ model that facilitates collaborative creation and sharing of content. As content is digitized, it becomes accessible from a multitude of devices, including radio, television, personal computer and, perhaps most importantly, the mobile phone, which is emerging as the dominant platform for delivering content of all kinds. Explain how media convergence creates new opportunities for interaction.  Media convergence has been driven to offer users new forms of consuming content with an interactivity that enables a  one to one ,  one to many  or  many to many  communication where the roles of sender and recipient interchange constantly. One of the way...

Definition of Types of Media PRINT MEDIA BROADCAST MEDIA NEW MEDIA The print media is composed of newspapers, community newsletters, wire services, magazines, and other publications. Within these publications, there are two main divisions of labor: reporting and editing. Reporters are the newspaper writers who investigate newsworthy events and interesting stories. Editors assign stories to reporters, edit story content, and decide which stories to print. The term 'broadcast media' covers a wide spectrum of different communication methods such as television, radio, newspapers, magazines and any other materials supplied by the media and press. It is a form of media/mass communication using digital technologies such as the Internet.

"KNOWLEDGE IS POWER"             It is said that KNOWLEDGE is the appropriate collection of information through experience or education, which can be useful in various situations. So it means that KNOWLEDGE truly EMPOWERS us.  When doing things by yourself, just knowing how to do them is power.  Even knowing that you have the ability to say ‘no’ is power. Knowledge is power because we have the capability to do things on our own, and we know how to use and share the information we had gathered to public or to the people who need the information. "IMPORTANCE OF GIVING CREDIT TO THE SOURCE"                  It is important to give credit as a respect  to the source of information we have. We should always know how to give credit because if we don't know how, we might do plagiarism over and over again.

    If I were a journalist, my intended audience would be the sports lovers. I’ll be the one writing the articles to enhance my writing ability just to be aware of different sports.

I will be writing about the different popular latest sports competitions taking place inside and out of our country and the facts would be based on the game, statistics, quotations from people involved and the scores.
