This is my the last personal reflection of min , anyway this week i learned an unsurprising yet unrealized fact that technology is powerful and that it can influence the great minds of humans. I also got to know that most culture ,example like the internet culture is created by technology itself.
As a conclusion , Technology is important and powerful.....

The Possibilty of Reshaping Culture Via Technology and How....?
The possibility of reshaping culture via technology is high , because people can easily be influenced by technology because of their believe in it . How? Internet is one of technology's biggest product and currently is the most important tool for more than millions of people in the world including me , who is using the internet to write in this blog , back to the matter in hand . Internet is the fastest way and the most simplest way of technology to reshape culture , it could even create or destory culture itself .
Culture Influenced by Technology....?
These days , technology plays a big and important role in everyone life in making their lives easier or to some , making it better . Technology as an important element in our life can influence many types of culture into our lives . The internet culture is one of the main culture that technology has influenced to people . Through this culture , the internet culture , the usage and gained of the internet itself has increase rapidly and is still increasing . Since there are many advantages , people don't give it a second thought thus the increase in usage . People seem to look at it as a tool that can be used to simplify their lives . Although there might be some disadvantages which are found in every sort of thing , people seem to like using it . If this keeps up , the usage of internet will increase to levels beyond imaginations .

Personal Reflection
Through this week I have been doing some research on media imperialism ,and found out that media imperialism is widely happening in our country . Big superstores like Giant , Tesco and Carrefuor are taking over and monopolizing the small community shops , preventing them to run their business . Other than that in the aspects of culture , it too has been influenced deeply due to the screening of movie in cinema and reality shows on the television which are often watched by teenagers .
The Connection between the information given from the lecture and the documentary .(critical thinking)
Media imperialism as we all know clearly happened and even now is currently is happening . In a shorter version , media imperialism is sharks and fishes , smaller countries represent the fishes , the fall prey to bigger countries in the aspects of media industries and they also cause force-feeding of media due to the intense power of the bigger country . As we have watched in the documentary , we have learned that a few great minds of the past have predicted and tried to prevent media imperialism from happening . In the aspects of economy , large superstores move in and sell their products in a much cheaper price , causing the smaller community shops to either sell their shop or close down .

Personal Reflection
This week I learned about the effects of media tools on media . You tube was the example i choose , I oso learned that there are other media tools like the You tube which hae deep effects on the media . Facebook is another example of an effective media tool , Facebook bring not only the society closer , it also bring people from other country closer . Other than that it creates a new gate way for people to make friends with other people frm other state or country or even for people to find their long lost relations .
Tetrad of Media (Critical Thinking)
You tube has become one of the famous website and the most visited website now days . Anything new from news , games , music to movies will be in this website , previewing anything new and important to people all over the world without any payment . Its like gaining the latest news anytime , anywhere about anything you want to know with just a click of a button . Its as if the whole digital realm is in your finger tips . You tube has a big media effect, it has helped many gain fast any important information fast and accurately . Other than that it also give its user to upload their own video in order to be shared by the other user making You tube a place to produce popular videos .
Personal Reflection
Through the media culture class , much could be gained other than what is taught by the lecturer. I have gained interest on knowing about the past because of the lesson learned in the media culture class. Over the period of a week which was week, I learned a lot about Obscenity, Pornography and Indecency . I also learned that people now days are addicted to pornography and often can be obscenity and indecent . This one day will affect the country's social status .
Obscenity, Pornography and Indecency , What the difference??(Critical Reflection)
Beginning with obscenity , is the term used in a legal context used for sexual immorality . Pornography on the other hand is is the explicit depiction of sexual subject matter with the sole intention of sexually exciting the viewer and Indecency is an individual's adherence to social standards of inappropriate speech and conduct . The society i currently addicted to pornography and often be obscenity and indecent .
