From Broadcasting to
Bits and Bytes
This class has taken a drive-by approach to myriad new media built on the Internet. Often the relationship between new media and traditional media has been the central way of discussing the importance and relevance of recent changes / events. The larger term for all of this is media ecology, which is the study of what happens to established media when new ones are introduced to the system.
This module looks at the big picture of media ecology to emphasize that if anything, these changes will continue to accelerate and the core principles for adapting to a changing media environment will become increasingly important.
