After School (15:00- 18:30)

Seeing all three media logs so far, I’ve come to the conclusion that depending on what classes I have on a particular day definitely depends on my media consumption. Furthermore, I believe that depending on which activities I perform, also is taken under consideration for my media consumption. As, the days I would play volleyball, would have me consume different medias than when I’d just come home, or go play tennis. Lastly, I can see many similarities between all three logs, which leads me to conclude that most media is repetitive, whatever we do everyday (brush, shower, clothes, etc.).

  1. Saunak,

    Who is Jennifer? That was funny. Anyow, your media consumption list was very very thorough. What you need to include (as a paragraph) at the end of each log is your conclusion. By looking at your findings, what do you notice?

  2. I agree with your conclusion, Saunak. The events of your day have a major impact on the amount of media you consume. I came to a similar conclusion, and realized that the more recreational time I have, the more media I consume. Lastly, you are correct in saying that media is repetitive. I feel that this an important way that media becomes as effective as it is. The more repetitive something is, the easier it is to remember.
