Topic: Week 12
This week's class looked at several media theories. The biggest idea was convergence. Often times we don't think about how the technology we use is made or developed. We just take it for granted as there. We must appreciate that technological messages are made by us humans. As Franklin stated "it is part of an organization that requires special processes and procedures, creates new words and jargon, carries a minset and creates new words and symbols." Indeed technology will forever shape our thoughts, culture and society.
Today was the last class of the symester. Wow, the speed of this symester was unbelievable. I still remember the first week of being completely overwhelmed by the amount of work. I found that this class was quite informative and the assignments created a good sence of teamwork and initiative that a high school student may struggle without direction. I remember the first week when Mark said that we are now in University and we are old enough to create our own direction. Lastly i'd like to thank John and Mike G for their hard work and dedication in the completion of these tasks.
Great Symester Guys,
Mike
