Electronic Mediated and Face-to Face Communication
In this assignment, you will choose one form of computer or electronic mediated communication, such as cellphone calls, testing via short messaging systems (SMS), Skype, teleconferencing, Facebook, Twitter, or blogs, and compare it with face-to-face communication. You will write a paper that answers the following: Are the modes media-rich or media deficient? Can they be used synchronously, asynchronously, or both? How much anonymity or pseudo-anonymity is available with each type? In which situations would the communication mode you chose be advantageous; in which situations would it be disadvantageous? What social advantage does each offer? How does each affect the development of identity? Support your paper with at least three scholarly resources. Length: 4-6 pages, including at least three scholarly resources ****Read Chapters 13 & 14 of Human Communications in Society by Alberts et. al.
