2. WHAT?
DIGITAL COMMUNICATION IS A ELECTRONIC
TRANSMISSION OF INFORMATION THAT HAS
BEEN ENCODED DIGITALLY.
EXAMPLES: EMAILS, FACEBOOK, TWITTER, &
INSTAGRAM.

3. HOW?
DIGITAL COMMUNICATION IS IMPORTANT
BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE IS ABLE TO MEET UP
FACE TO FACE, SOME PEOPLE LIVE FAR AWAY
AND THE ONLY COMMUNICATION AVAILABLE
IS ELECTRONICS.

4. WHAT IT MEANS TO
TAMARA?
TO ME DIGITAL COMMUNICATION IS A HUGE
PART OF MY LIFE BECAUSE OF MY CELL PHONE,
I’M ON IT A LARGE PERCENT OF THE DAY
WHETHER I’M TEXTING TALKING OR ON
SOCIAL MEDIA. IF I DIDN’T HAVE A CELL PHONE
I’D PROBABLY BE MISERABLE.

5. WORLDWIDE
CELL PHONES ARE OWNED BY
OVERWHELMINGLY LARGE MAJORITIES OF
PEOPLE IN MOST MAJOR COUNTRIES AROUND
THE WORLD, AND THEY ARE USED FOR MUCH
MORE THAN JUST PHONE CALLS.

6. WHAT IT MEANS TO
MARCUS?
DIGITAL COMMUNICATION TO ME IS SKILLS
THAT PEOPLE USE TO COMMUNICATE
THROUGH SOCIAL NETWORKS OR EMAIL. A
WAY TO DEMONSTRATE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF
ACADEMIC SUBJECTS OR IDEAS

7. WORLDWIDE
IN 15 OF 21 COUNTRIES, AT LEAST 25% OF
THOSE POLLED USE SOCIAL NETWORKING
SITES. ISRAEL (53%) AND THE U.S. (50%) TOP
THE LIST WITH THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF
ADULTS WHO SAY THEY USE ONLINE SOCIAL
NETWORKING SITES SUCH AS FACEBOOK

8. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO THE
PROBLEMS THAT HAVE EMERGED
THERE ARE DEFINITELY MANY PROBLEMS WITH
DIGITAL COMMUNICATION. I THINK THE
BIGGEST SOLUTION FOR THIS IS PEOPLES'
RESPONSIBILITY THAT TEENAGERS DO NOT
WANT, FOR EXAMPLE, THEIR BAD LANGUAGE
TO AFFECT THEIR CHANCES TO GET JOBS, THEY
SHOULD SIMPLY BE RESPONSIBLE AND AVOID
USING BAD LANGUAGE IN THE INTERNET.
