How Media Consumption Has Changed in the Digital Age
1. MEDIA IN THE ONLINE AGE
WE CONDUCTED A SURVEY THAT ANALYSED HOW PEOPLE
CONSUME DIFFERENT MEDIA PRODUCTS NOW, COMPARED TO 10
YEARS AGO.
WE WANTED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A DIFFERNCE IN AGE AND
GENDER AND IF THERE WAS A LINK BETWEEN THIS AND TIME AND
HOW MEDIA HAS CHANGED.
2. Q1: ARE YOU MALE OR FEMALE?
WE HAD RESPONSES FROM 4 PEOPLE, 2 MALE, 2
FEMALE.
3. Q2: WHAT IS YOUR AGE?
3 OF OUR RESPONSES
WERE BETWEEN THE
AGE OF 10-20 AND 1
WAS BETWEEN THE AGE
OF 41-50.
THIS HAS AFFECTED
OUR RESPONSES AS THE
RESULTS ARE
ORIENTATED AROUND
A YOUNGER
GENERATION.
4. Q3: HOW LONG DID YOU SPEND ON ON AVERAGE PER DAY
ON THE INTERNET COMPARED TO 10 YEARS AGO?
WE NOTICED THAT 10 YEARS
AGO MORE PEOPLE SAID THEY
SEPNT LESS THAT 1 HOUR A DAY
ON THE INTERNET, AND THE
RESPONSE FROM THE OLDER
MAN SAID HE SPENT 1 HOUR A
DAY ON THE INTERNET.
5. Q4: HOW LONG DO YOU SPEND ON
AVERAGE ON THE INTERNET PER DAY
NOW?
IN COMPARISION TO THE PREIOUS
SLIDE, THE RESPONSES STATED THAT
MORE PEOPLE SPEND TIME ON THE
INTERNET IN TODAYS AGE,
COMPARED TO 10 YEARS AGO,
AND PERHAPS THIS IS BECAUSE IT IS
MORE ACCESSIBLE.
6. Q5: WHAT METHOD DID YOU USE TO
ACCESS THE INTERNET 10 YEARS AGO?
THE MAJORTY OF PEOPLE
USED THEIR OWN COMPUTER
OR A COMPUTER PROVIDED
BY WORK, SCHOOL OR A
PUBLIC SPACE SUCH AS THE
LIBRARY. THERE WERE NO
RESPONSES FOR MOBILE
PHONES AND OTHER DEVICES.
7. Q6: WHAT METHOD DO YOU USE
NOW?
THE MOST POPULAR CHOICES IN
TODAYS AGE FOR ACCESSING
THE INTERENT WERE MOBILE
PHONES AND PERSONAL
COMPUTERS COMPARED TO THE
WORK AND SCHOOL
COMPUTERS, BUT THESE ARE STILL
POPULAR METHODS.
TECHNOLOGY HAS CLEARLY
DEVELOPED OVER TIME AND THE
INTERNET HAS BECOME MORE
ACCESSIBLE ON A WIDER RANGE
OF DEVICES.
8. Q7: HOW OFTEN DID YOU ACCESS
SOCIAL MEDIA 10 YEARS AGO?
LESS TIME WAS SPENT ON
SOCIAL MEDIA 10 YEARS
AGO JUDGING BY THESE
RESPONSES. PERHAPS
BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY
ACCESSIBLE AT HOME
AND NOT ON A
PORTABLE DEVICE LIKE A
MOBLIE PHONE.
9. Q8: HOW OFTEN DO YOU ACCESS THE
INTERNET NOW?
IN TODAYS AGE,
PEOPLE SPEND MORE
THAN ONE HOUR A
DAY ON THE INTERNET,
WHEREAS ONE
RESPONSE STATED THE
SAME. THIS WAS FROM
THE OLDER MAN,
WHICH SUGGESTS THAT
SOCIAL MEDIA
APPEALS GENERALLY
TO YOUNGER PEOPLE,
BUT THAT IS NOT
SAYING IT IS NOT USED
BY THE OLDER
GENERATION AS WELL.
