Through having team members who had a little more experience in University assessments gave us a bit more edge as some of us are doing this group assessment for the first time. Through adding suggestions and working things out together, the team developed and worked well. By choosing as a group to do popular TV shows, this incorporated to the level of success we achieved by using a theme that we are all interested in. The team was able to discuss the sub-headings to a great degree, thus adding positive input into the presentation. By having constant communication via Facebook, the team were constantly updated throughout the whole process, which made the collaboration process a lot more achievable and affective.
For example, T.V has sounds and images that are great for visual learners. Students do not only learn new information, but also hear sounds and pictures relevant to the information, which helps them learn more efficiently. For example, channels such as Discoveries, PBS and CBC help students from a variety of ages to learn about environments, wars, history and many current
Every episode reminds us that we live in such an amazing country that allows us to exercise our right of freedom of speech in any way possible.The show also targets celebrities and politicians to shows that they are just like everyone else. South Park has the unique ability to update its audience with current events going on in our country or worldwide that most would overlook. South Park takes hard news, adds satire with raunchy humor; which then creates interest from the public. It also helps that South Park has a bigger audience base than CNN as well. South Park provides us with in your face politics with no apologies.
It created trust between us. Twitter allows us to quickly and efficiently solve and problems our consumers may have, as well as tell them thanks for being there. Pinterest lets our consumers know what the brands interests are . The brand can post pictures and short videos about what appeals to us, what changes we are trying to implement in our business and what we think on a daily basis. As our consumers view our pins and re-pin them our brand is exposed to new consumers as well as untapped markets.
The book uses a selection of printed numbers and pictures to represent different numbers. I enjoyed how the pages were cut in half; the top half being printed numbers and the second half being colourful fruits. I chose this book as I love that it encourages the children to join in and teaches them how to correspond printed numbers with objects, it also provides children with a fun activity. The illustrations are brightly coloured and bold to entice the children and I can appreciate that there are many activities that can extend the main focus of this book; therefore it is a practical book to use within settings. The only main implications I have with this book is the format; you have to flip between the pages to match the numbers up with.
There are many factors that can affect the way we speak such as: age, gender, familiarity, background, friendship groups and education. Another factor that can affect our language is the media. For example through T.V programmes and the internet many teenagers have picked up words such as ‘dude’, ‘OMG’ or ‘fail’ etc. By observing my language I realised that I have adopted these words and use them often in casual conversation. It has been especially noticed by my friends that I use the word ‘dude’ very frequently, this could be due to the fact that American phrases are being passed on more easily than before through the internet, making it easier for teenagers to pick up.
Initially, the use of media to relay news was a good idea: Television has “restored” the nations “feeling of direct contact”, “the people have once more become the nation” (Source A). Television has allowed for thousands of people to be involved with current events. At first people were drawn to this
Having an intellectual conversation or debate is no longer limited to the classroom, technological advancements in communication have driven people to interact and collaborate with people all over the planet spreading and expressing new ideas in new ways. It lowers the barriers of self directed learning and inspires exploration to satisfy curiosity or interest by offering a degree of freedom and autonomy not apparent in classrooms (Et Al 3). This is one of the greatest benefits of the internet, it grants you the freedom to learn about whatever you want while allowing you to establish credibility for yourself in your field of interest by connecting you to people interested or involved that field of interest. This freedom to share exchange ideas, creations, and feedback promotes the youth to create, share, and collaborate. Whether it be posting a tweet or writing on a blog, technology is giving young people a more and more diverse variety of ways and reasons to express their thoughts and opinions through writing.
This completely changed the way they did hunting and gathering. More recent events would be the Cold War, and the introduction of the computer and internet. These two events brought about major change throughout the world. The Cold War, while being a fight to prove greatness between two superpowers, brought new advances that would expand the world’s view of possibilities. The computer and internet would successfully create instant communication.
Malcolm X has influenced the people around him, just like a computer. Computers have a huge impact on the media and the people around the world. Malcolm X has influenced the people around him by preaching the word of freedom and equality for all races. Both computers and Malcolm X have reached people in different ways, but essentially they impact the world equally. Another way computers and Malcolm X are alike is they both help people with problems or solve issues that people are feeling.
