The invention of the cell phone allowed people to be in contact with anyone when they were away from home. Cell phones allow people to contact emergency help if they are not by a land line telephone.

  8. What has Television done for Mass Communication? Television allows people to watch the news, movies, and other entertainment shows. The invention of the television has brought on the invention of VCR’s and VHS tapes, DVD’s and DVD players, and now BlueRay Discs and BlueRay Players. People can now watch television on their phones, in their cars, or watch movies with a portable DVD player. By: Rachel Holscher

  9. How has Mass Communication Technologies affected today’s society? With the invention of computers and the telephone, so much time is saved in communicating ideas to other people.  There is no longer a wait time for letters to arrive, or a having to wait months to speak with family and friends. Today’s technologies allow society to be instantly connected to one another. News spreads around the world in seconds instead of weeks or months. By: Rachel Holscher

  10. Positive Affects There are many positive aspects to the creation of these technologies, such as vast amounts of resources, the ability to and creating bonds between people and never losing contact with others. The internet provides an enormous collection of resources ranging from news articles, encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc. to games, personal logs, and entertainment sites.  Anything anyone is searching for at any given moment is more than likely to show up on the internet.  This gives people the convenience of having resourceful information at their fingertips.  All they have to do is type keywords into a search engine and millions of websites are listed and give the option to pick and choose which sites fit the topic a person is looking for.  This is incredibly useful for projects, reports, essays, etc. especially for students who cannot get to a library.  Even libraries publish information online to satisfy the demands for information. By: Rachel Holscher

  11. Negative Affects These technologies have made contacting people much easier; however, who really wants to be contacted every second of every day and never get a minute of solitude?  With inventions like the cell phone and the internet, Americans feel obligated to be on call and available at every moment.  On average people check their e-mail four times a day, whether to stay in contact for their occupation, or with family members; or there is the cell phone which they would feel guilty turning off for fear of panicking a person trying to reach them.  These new technologies have put a strain on people, most without even knowing it.  Not only do technologies make people feel compelled to be accessible, they generate so much more stress and demand as well.  By: Rachel Holscher

  22. Technology and Mass Communication Through The Ages By: Heidi Koval

  23. A Child's View of Technology and Communication By: Heidi Koval

  24. How Do you See Technology and Mass Communication? 13 and Under In discussing the relationship between advancing technology and mass communication, I thought it would be interesting to see how children see technology, mass communication, and their interrelation. I interviewed three children: ages 12, 10, and 6 years old. I asked each of them several questions; some questions were the same, and some I rephrased to make them more age-appropriate. By: Heidi Koval

  25. 1st Interview By: Heidi Koval In this interview, the 12 year old was a boy named Oliver: What is an example of messages that you have seen in TV shows or other means of mass media?Some of the messages I have seen in TV shows are that brothers and sisters should constantly fight and that teachers hate kids. In video games, there are messages that violence is fun and if you can out-fight your enemy, you will end up advancing past them.How many hours a day do you think you are using some type of mass media?One less hour than I am awake

  26. 1st Interview What do you think people did to hear about current events 100 years ago?The only thing I can think of that they would have been able to do is read a newspaper or hear about current events from other people.Do you think this was an effective way to hear about news? Why or why not?No, I don't think this was a very effective way to hear about news because it would have taken a long time for news to travel and if it was important, it might have been too late by the time the news reached people.How do you think the advancement of technology has changed the way people keep up with current events?The internet has made it so that people can see the latest news anywhere and at anytime on their laptop or cell phone or TV.What technology do you think has made the biggest change in the ways that people use mass communication?I think the internet has made the biggest change in how we use mass communication. Now there's no reason why we can't know what's going on within a minute of it happening. By: Heidi Koval

  27. 2nd Interview By: Heidi Koval The 10 year-old I interviewed is a girl named Evie. What is an example of messages that you have seen in TV shows or other means of mass media?If you can't do something very good right away, you should keep on trying because you should always try to do your best.How many hours a day do you think you are using some type of mass media?About eight.

  28. 2nd Interview What do you think people did to hear about current events 100 years ago?Read the newspaper or talked to each other.Do you think this was an effective way to hear about news? Why or why not?Yes, I think this was a good way to hear about news because people who saw things happen could tell other people about what they had seen.How do you think the advancement of technology has changed the way people keep up with current events?Radio, TV, cameras, and computers have changed the way we hear about and see news. Cameras take pictures that can show how things looked as they happened and computers help people know what the weather might be like which can save people's lives. A lot of people read about the news on the internet, too.What technology do you think has made the biggest change in the ways that people use mass communication?The internet. By: Heidi Koval

  29. 3rd Interview By: Heidi Koval The 6 year-old that I interviewed was a girl named Ava. What do you think the most important invention has been in the last 100 years?Radio so people can know what's going on.How many hours a day do you think you are using some type of mass media?Five

  30. 3rd Interview What do you think people did to hear about news 100 years ago?Well, there were no TV's, no video games, and I'm pretty sure there weren't yo-yos, but maybe newspapers. Or books, or letters.Do you think this was an effective way to hear about news? Why or why not?Yes, because that was the only way they had to hear about news.How do you think inventions in the last 100 years have changed the way we hear about news?We can watch the news on TV now. By: Heidi Koval

  31. Impacts of Technology and Mass Communication Do you think there might be any reasons to be concerned about the impact of technology and the way it relates to mass communication? Oliver and Evie responded by saying that it was almost impossible right now to really be able to shut off all means of mass communication. Oliver said that the people who control the messages being sent through mass media have a lot of power over the way people think because they are choosing what information people know and what information people don't get to see. By: Heidi Koval

  32. Technology, Mass Communication and the Future Do you think it is important to keep up with knowing how to use computers, making sure you're learning as much as you can as technology continues to change?"Unanimously, they responded that yes, it is important. Without knowing how to use technology, they all agreed, you would not be able to keep up with the world. It seems that children understand what an integral role technology plays in the way we now interact with each other and in the way we keep current with what is going on around the world, and are also capable of seeing the potential hazards of the changing landscape of mass communication.
