Media and Technology
The worldview on the relationship between people and media and technology is that people depend on technology and media on various occasions. Media and technology play a crucial role people’s lives since they inform, entertain, and educate people. People access media by using technology, and allow people to look in the world and make relevant changes in their lives and also they can organize their public opinion. The media such as television and radios inform people what is happening in various parts of the world. Social media allow people to interact with people from all over the globe, thus they can share ideas and change their ways of perceiving things (Yu et al. 202). Through the shared ideas people come up with ways that they can use to improve their living conditions thus eliminating poverty globally. Therefore media and technology play a vital role worldwide through generation of economic ideas that help people generate incomes and improve their standards of living.
The impact of changes in the worldview on my decisions is that I should always depend on myself. Media and technology has led to isolation and therefore, it is vital that in any decision I make I should know how each activity will be carried out and achieved. People are learning how to start their projects and businesses, and they can operate them single handedly. For instance in case, I want to start an online job, I will be in charge of procurement, sales and marketing and, accounting since it is possible to do so with the advanced technology (Genner Sarah and Daniel 9). Communication now revolves around technology and media, and therefore in case I have an idea I should know how to incorporate the new methods of communication influence by technology an media.
