Contemporary Media Issues

At the start of the session we had a discussed about what everybody had done the night before. There were a number of things we had took part in; 
  • Social Events - Making Pancakes 
  • Film Watching - DVD - Illegal Downloads - Cinema
  • Playing Games - XBox - Board Games - Mobile Phone Games
  • Reading Books - Magazines
  • Reading News Online
  • Reading News Papers
  • T.V - Watching T.V Again e.g. Laptop - Live T.V
  • Chatting to People on - Phone - Skype - Social Networking
We had this discussion to show that we use a lot of media, and that we have a lot to pick from. Each day we can use a range of different media. 
We then moved on to the different types of media producers and what they need to know, when creating different types of media.  We were asked to look at each groups wiki and also to add comments about their topic they have researched. We also had a discussion about the wikis and issues we had creating them. Some issues include that users within a group have different writing styles. Another is that the technology used is slow and sometimes hard to use.
