Hi there, so this is a Communication and Technology Culture class. You will need to write an Essay based on the technology I have chosen and in this case it will be " The Microphone". I have done the presentation part and presented it but now you will need to write an essay based on it. choose a communication technology and write an essay examining (1) how sociocultural values are inscribed in it (designer assumptions, affordances, how race and gender are embedded into it, etc.), and (2) proposing how the technology can be redesigned to be more inclusive. Consider what new norms the technology might embed. Your essay should be between 2500 and 3000 words, excluding references. You must draw on course materials in your analysis and have at least 5 academic references (2 should be course readings).
What is(are) the main lessons you have gained from the course? Is any of the learning objectives you had hoped to learn (as you wrote in the “Introduction” assignment) fulfilled? Reflecting on various topics/issues introduced throughout the term, which one(s) is(are) your favourite? Please describe why. Have this course changed/challenged your previous assumptions/knowledge? Or, does it confirm your previous assumption/conviction? How? Beyond academic/scholarly reason, have you learned anything that can possibly equip you in your life? Please share. Please reflect on your in-person classroom experiences and share a story of memorable moments. Feel free to add more reflection beyond your answer to these questions. You can say anything about/to Prof. Lim, here, too ;-) There’s no wrong/right answer to any of these questions. Your reflection will be graded based on: Reflection's comprehensiveness and depth, groundedness in classroom experiences. Writing: clarity, relevance, grammar. Organization: topic sentences, flow. Mechanics & usage: punctuation, capitalization, spelling, sentence structure, word usage. Please make sure all work is 100% unique, AI and plagiarism free.

This essay is for a communications 101 class: Here are the paper guidelines: Media objects and texts mean different things to different people. Over the course of the semester we've encountered several methods and approaches for analyzing media. We began the semester thinking about how individual researchers might interpret media texts through textual analysis. In this unit, you were introduced to different approaches to audience research and reception studies. This assignment asks you to complete a textual analysis as well as a short reception study and compare/contrast or integrate your findings. First, pick a media object or text to analyze and provide your own textual analysis. Then, interview a few friends and/or collect social media posts about what the show means to others. Once you've completed the textual analysis and the interviews/social media, offer an analysis of the meaning(s) of the show. Your essay should include and introduction, argument, textual analysis, summary of interviews or social media posts, analysis, conclusion, and bibliography

Take a few moments and reflect back on your experience in the class. Instructions In 1-2 pages discuss some of the things you found most interesting in the class. Were there any concepts or theories that you saw actually come to life in your own interpersonal interactions? What was the most helpful information for you? What impact did it have? What was the least interesting or helpful and why? What would you like to learn more about? Finally, what suggestions, if any, do you have that you feel would help improve the course? This is the first online version that I have done of Interpersonal Communication so any feedback that may help future students dealing with online learning is greatly appreciated.
The assignment reads the following: Media objects and texts mean different things to different people. Over the course of the semester we've encountered several methods and approaches for analyzing media. We began the semester thinking about how individual researchers might interpret media texts through textual analysis. In this unit, you were introduced to different approaches to audience research and reception studies. This assignment asks you to complete a textual analysis as well as a short reception study and compare/contrast or integrate your findings. First, pick a media object or text to analyze and provide your own textual analysis. Then, interview a few friends and/or collect social media posts about what the show means to others. Once you've completed the textual analysis and the interviews/social media, offer an analysis of the meaning(s) of the show. Your essay should include and introduction, argument, textual analysis, summary of interviews or social media posts, analysis, conclusion, and bibliography. 5 pages double spaced Bried Guidliness: Your papers should have an introductory paragraph that tells the reader what the paper is about, how you will be conducting your analysis (method of content selection, methods of analysis) and why the topic is important. The paper should be introduced and written in a way that someone unfamiliar with the course content could still understand your main arguments and main point of the paper. Having a thesis statement—an argument—is very important and will strengthen your paper considerably. Papers should also include a clear conclusion that is directly applicable to the arguments and key points presented in the paper. Avoid colloquial, conversational language, such as "I was scanning through this website the other day" or "wow, you would not believe!!!! how sexist these ads were," etc. Beware of writing as though the media are having a predictable or powerful effect on viewers/readers, such as with lines like “the ad makes us” or “the TV show shows that Americans believe…” Using media texts, we can make reliable inferences about the intentions of the makers and how they may be trying to address us or make us feel, but we can also only speculate about their effects You may use the pronoun I, as in "I found" or "I studied the following.." Remember to back up assertions with specific evidence from the media text you are analyzing and/or from course material and readings. If you are discussing an ad, quote directly from it and/or describe its imagery. If using a television show as evidence, for example, cite the dialogue, action, scene and so forth. If you are using a particular reading to support your claims, be sure to cite it.
Step 1: Visit your Group space. Go to your Group Team Chat space to make contact with your team. Step 2: Complete an individual Research practice activity. This exercise refreshes our knowledge on how to properly cite and incorporate outside source material into our writing. Step 3: Complete the PEEL Activity individually to prepare to write about your sources. You will use outside sources to support the statements in your short report. The PEEL Activity offers us a useful formula for writing strong paragraphs that include outside sources. Step 4: Find sources to use to write your report. You can make notes and share what you find or any written drafts with your teammates in your Group space. Write at least one paragraph each that includes outside source material. Step 5: Collaboratively write an introduction and conclusion around your research paragraphs. In your shared document, write an introduction that gives your audience an idea about the topic and finish the short report with a conclusion about important ideas to remember. This team assignment focuses on building our research skills and synthesizing outside information with our own opinions. In the last unit, you completed Steps 1 and 2. In this unit, you will complete the final three steps of the project, which prepare you to write strong paragraphs that include outside source material (PEEL Activity) and write an introduction and conclusion around those paragraphs to create a short report for VP Carol. Review the folders below to get started.
