IntroductionNew Media
“In this course you will learn about digital communication and new media. By the end of this course you will have a solid understanding of digital tools and tactics available to grow communities and engage with consumers online” Derek Mehraban
Is a term meant to encompass the emergence of digital, computerized, or networked information and communication technologies in the later part of the 20th century. Most technologies described as “new media” are digital, often having characteristics of being manipulated, networkable, dense, compressible, and impartial. (Wikipedia.com)
Forms of communicating in the digital world, which includes electronic publishing, digital television and, most significantly the internet. These methods of the digital world allow smaller groups of people to congregate online and share, sell and swap goods and information. It allows more people to have a voice in their community and in the world. (PCMAG.com )
