Synthesis
Describe how new technologies have
led to the convergence of traditional
and new media.
~
New technologies have led to the convergence of traditional and new media because humans are constantly changing in order to survive in the modern world. New technologies leading to convergence became vital for many people. The development of technology, converging through the traditional and new media made life easier. These new technologies become the peak towards progress and development. Traditional medias then moves forward to new media concluding a convergence of media. Since it is much more efficient to use developed technologies than the traditional one, we, people chose to evolve where it’s created and simply converged with new media.
new opportunities for interaction.
~With media convergence, it creates new opportunities for
interaction by making people communicate more conveniently and
efficiently. Media convergence provides people with medias that provides
content with an interactivity that enables a one-to-one or one-to-many communication
where both people involved interchange information constantly. These provided
media are less hassle and more competent to use.
media to share knowledge and information
on a current issue in society.
~With one or two forms of new media we can capably share knowledge and information on a current issue in society through online media and its connectivity. Bringing people together for collaboration and creativity with the use of sharing. An example of a new media is Twitter. People can send tweet instantly to billions of people then reaching it to billions of people again. Therefore making the shared knowledge and information on a current issue on society more accessible and easier to find hence making it easier for us to be updated and gain awareness. Another one is Facebook. Through Facebook, people can instantly share a post and comment through it making these people engaged on a current issue in society. These people are able to express their opinions and thoughts thus sharing knowledge and information with each other. Most importantly: it allows us more control over the quality and degree of connection that we maintain with others (Siapera, 2012). Thus sharing the knowledge and information on a current issue in society has a control. Making what we say and what we post to these new medias subjective and possibly filtered.

~A person can be portrayed in public in the age of media convergence through the use of televisions and the Internet; making it accessible through laptops and smartphones by the use of social medias.
A person depends on a public opinion in the age of media convergence. They are portrayed both negatively and positively. Through the use of different platforms in media convergence, these different platforms then portray a person providing a coverage of their basic information, feats, failure, goodwill, hostility, and exemplary or deplorable life.
