Reflection #2

  1. What is the most important media device for today’s generation?
    -For me, the most important media device for today's generation would be our mobile phones.
  2. What are the good and bad effects of your chosen media device?
    Good Effects
    -Our mobile phones enable long distance communication through the use of the internet
    -We can use them to communicate with a concerned person during an emergency/urgent situation
    -Most phones have many useful time-management and organizer programs(e.g. Calendar, Alarms, Timers, Notes)
    -Our phones can also be used for our entertainment through games and/or music
    -Adding to all these, phones are extremely convenient as we can use them almost anywhere and anytime
    Bad Effects
    -Sometimes, I and many others get too immersed with our phones to the point of counterproductivity
    -Not only that, but excessive usage of mobile phones also contribute to the worsening of our vision
    -Also, phones can sometimes be used with malicious intent(e.g. sending a message to an unknown person while claiming to be a close relative/friend, with the intention of scamming them)
