I was like you and you were like me - Hoody Let's Be Honest (uwu)

[katejacinto]

I will say that I enjoyed the quality time or bonding moments that I spent during my MIL classes. Because to be honest I don’t find it very boring rather it is a very interesting subject and it’s my first time having this kind of subject. I had lots of fun and I was able to learn so many things such as the importance and rules of media, different kinds of media, the evolution of media and so on. I am very grateful because our teacher is very understanding and sometimes she is very relatable and funny. And at the same time I feel comfortable in a way every time she is teaching us new lessons. But there are also times of struggles for sample, sudden disconnection or my internet runs very slowly. Yet Despite all that challenges that I face, in the end I was still able to learn something from this subject. So that’s all for me to say in this reflection and I want to say THANK YOU SINCERELY to Mam Barrioga for her dedication and passion when it comes to giving us new knowledge or information about her subject. Stay safe and God bless po maam!! uwu

The first part of Media and Information Sources and Media and Information Languages tackles the indigenous media of the autochthonous people, for example, in our country you can find different tribes in different places in the Philippines. This is an interesting topic to learn about it because their way of communication is just like the old period, that's why I find it very interesting. The second part is the different kinds of libraries, such as the special library, public library, academic library, and so on. It is better to know the difference and the services that they offer to the people. This is very helpful and you can get some information about them, in which they give you different insights. And the last part of this lesson is that it teaches us how to evaluate information, this here is very crucial and should be learned because this topic talks about how to know whether the data that you have is true or fake. Then after that, we also talk about codes and its role in the media, to describe it further they are being used as symbols or signs in media. But it depends on what part of the media we are trying to imply the definition.

So that’s all and bye by~

This is my artwork that I made for the activity. Which is we are given a task to make a propaganda art and pick a topic in which you will make an artwork out of it. For the topic of my art piece is about Cybersex Trafficking and fun fact, I based my artwork on a real life case that recently happened in South, Korea.

This kind of issue should be handled seriously and give justice for those people who are victims of human trafficking. Mostly this happens to women and some of them are underage. And I made this artwork because I want to raise awareness and give them a spotlight to the society so that they will be noticed and give them the justice that they need. And also I want to show the people that we should value the word "RESPECT" and be mindful when it comes to using social media. Know your do and don't s properly and think before you act if you are gonna do something stupid.

“Information literacy is a set of abilities requiring individuals to "recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information.”

         -American Library Association (2007)

We have learn what is Information Literacy and from its definition it is all about a a certain skills in which we have the ability to identify, organize and analyze information. And I realized that it is very important to have this kind of ability because how are we gonna able to know if the information is right or wrong, if we don’t know how to identify it if it’s true or not. And how are we even gonna organize it, if we don’t know how to in the first place. If we don’t have this kind of knowledge then we won’t be able to understand the information that we have or rather the purpose on why we are collecting data or information from different sources. And it is required for people to have this skill because this will be a great benefit for them especially in education like in doing research and stuffs. It will help them as well to do a good performance in their job/work and also provide them a better future.

This might be my favorite topic in MIL because I find it very amusing  to see the improvement of the technology through out the history. And I find it very interesting as well because you are learning new things about how people used to communicate before. As we took off on the memory lane let us see the evolution of media through out the years..

        “Over the past few weeks of online class, I have learn so many new things regarding about Media and Information Literacy. And they were all very interesting and a bit new for me to learn about. Starting from the introduction then up to their terminologies, in which honestly  some words where not that familiar to me at first. But now I can say that I have now know their definition and purpose”

“I have learned also the difference between... 

             Mass communication and Mass Media 

When we were discussing the difference between this two, it was very clear to me and I was able to differentiate these two. Mass communication is more on doing the action such as like being able to create a message in which we spread the info to other people if I would describe it. While Mass media is rather the tool that we use every time we want to share something to the people. It is like a bridge in which it is being used as a platform to go to the other side.”

____________________________________________________________  

 “Samples of mass media are newspapers, magazines, television and the list goes on. And then I also learned the process of communication“

Sender > Message > Channel > Receiver

Sender > a person who sends or transmits a message Message > a piece of information. Channel > a medium in which it is used to spread your message (cellphone, e-mail and etc...)

Receiver > the person or group who receives the message and gives meaning to the message.
