The advanced state of technology in the world has been an
undeniable boon to the production, transmission, and consumption of media
across the world. Long gone are the days where access to media was extremely
limited to paper copies of newspapers, voice-only radio broadcasts, or a sparse
number of television stations. Nowadays media is produced for every media type,
tailored to be viewed on certain formats, and able to be consumed on paper or
in countless electronic devices. This paper will look at how news media
websites utilize media technology, how mobile phones and entertainment systems
have changed how we consume media, and how social media involves the world in the
media itself.

The Weeks Ahead
This blog has been created as part of my Communications Studies capstone
course at Ashford University, under the instruction of Professor Serra. This
blog exists to act as a showcase of the skills and theories that I have
developed through my course of study at Ashford. The blog will provide samples
of work that I have generated over the last few years. By the time the capstone
course has ended, this blog should represent a snapshot of my skills as a
Communications Studies major.
Whether
you are a fellow student, an instructor from Ashford University, or a
prospective employer, the posts to follow will provide samples of writing that
showcase the different areas that I have studied. It will be presented in a
very straightforward, easy to navigate format and the design should make it
easy to seek out topics and subjects that meet your interests. If the information
you are searching for is difficult to find or understand then that will be a
failure of that element. To that end everything will be streamlined with a
focus on readability. I promise to keep away from distracting elements and poor
layouts.
