Traditional Literacy vs Media Literacy - 8 views

This is a good question. Maybe the new and the old exist together. For example, paperless versions of magazines and newspapers on iPads and related technology. Reducing waste, but that's a differen...

I hear people say "hashtag, ______" all the time. it's a trend that shouldn't have been started. I am guilty of using on instagram and twitter, and it's an easy way to find things with the same keywords, but that's the only thing it should be used for in social media.

I do think hastags are overused. #thisdayissoboring #fullsailuniversityisthebomb what is the point of this? There are things I do understand about hashtags when things are trending to keep trending topics all in one place. For instance the news hashtags come in handy for that but not when they're overused.

Seems like the 4 of us are on the same page where this particular post is concerned because - previous to twitter and other social media - the "hashtag" was nothing more than a sign representing "number" or symbol on a phone; and that's the point.Just because someone found a different and more convenient use for it doesn't mean it enhances traditional language or literacy.

I understand that the hastag was created out of necessity to catalog and 'expose' your thoughts, pictures, etc. But why has it become such a cultural staple? The hashtag, to me anyways, is equivilent to like the Fonz saying "Aaaaaaayyeee!" or Bugs Bunny with his "What's up Doc?". It's big right now and will likely be remembered eventually as a spoof or nostalgic rememberance of the 2010's. Also, that's a very indepth and thorough list of hashtags haha

"Studies show that reading develops imagination, induction, reflection and critical thinking, as well as vocabulary," Greenfield said. "Reading for pleasure is the key to developing these skills. Students today have more visual literacy and less print literacy. Many students do not read for pleasure and have not for decades."

This release by UCLA newsroom sheds light on a study and quotes Patricia Greenfield, UCLA distinguished professor of psychology and director of the Children's Digital Media Center, Los Angeles as saying that "Wiring classrooms for Internet access does not enhance learning," among other statements she makes in the study.

I definitely agree, it's always harder for me to type a paper. I have to go through and retype almost every sentence because I am abbreviating everything. I often missed some and at my last school ...
