Advice

As hired to improve Baruch College, I believe that new media is one of the most impactful tools that can better the university. I suggest that Baruch College starts making a blogging site as well to relate and interact with their students. As proven throughout the semester, blogs have demonstrated an environment where fellow classmates are able to bond and understand one another's point of view on different situations. In addition, this allows Baruch College to actually listen to their students and see what they can do to improve the university, or what resource should be provided in order to have students enjoy their time better. There are over 15,000 students here at Baruch and by being able to just hear from them, this will truly improve the university as a whole and provide insightful feedback regarding the university. Another way that we could use new media to improve Baruch College is by allowing professors and students to communicate through a class messenger. This will provide more instant responses from both parties and that both parties will not have to constantly check emails in order to see that an issue has occurred.

    Hi Kevin, I have to say that implementing a blog would better improve student life and with the features you mentioned gives students and professors a more accessible way to efficiently communicate. For instance, every once in a while a classes gets canceled and with this tool allows everyone to be notified quickly in order to rearrange and maximize their schedules. In addition, with freedom to post, students can learn from one another through different perspectives. There are so many students coming from different backgrounds and it is evident that all our perspectives and opinions matter. I hope to see these beneficial new media tools implemented in the future!

As someone who is constantly on the go and in a rush, there are times where I am forgetful and need specific files from my computer that I do not have at the moment. There is an application called "TeamViewer" that allows you to work on your home computer through another computer; however, only if the computer at home is turned on. This is useful and all, but for those like me who are constantly forgetful and nobody is at home to turn on the computer, I propose that there should be a new media application that allows you to use a third party computer viewer. This application would first download everything on your home computer an then upload it onto a online storage. This allows you to view your computer documents from wherever you are which makes it much more practical than just using TeamViewer. This technology could really benefit those who are constantly on the go and do not want to carry around a laptop and etc. The mobile and desktop access can provide extreme ease to ...

Privacy

New media has provided a great sense of mass communication for people all around the world; however, this does spark a major issue in today's society. That major issue is privacy and confidentiality. When a social media account is created, users are typically asked for private information regarding their personal biography, lifestyle and family and friends. In almost all of these new media, you are given the option of whether or not you want only your friends to see it, or you want the entire social media community to be able to see it. Over the years, many users are claiming that their privacy is not so "private" anymore considering that there are many loopholes for others to be able to learn about your private information. You can always use a friends account to view this person's private information and because of that, it defeats the purpose of a private account. Confidentiality is another issue considering that nothing is confidential. A private group on Facebook...

Wiki So Far

Over the past couple weeks, I began to perform research and decided to contribute to the "Sport" section where I will be adding on a new topic which is Tennis. More specifically, I would like to perform a detailed analysis of how Tennis as a sport has grown in popularity because of social media. Sporting brands such as Nike, Adidas, and Uniqlo have all decided to select certain tennis players to become their brand ambassadors and in order to market their brand and products successfully, these companies utilize the players social media. I would add in a detailed explanation of how superstar tennis player "Roger Federer" has switched sporting brands from Nike to Uniqlo and how in over just a couple months, have transcended the clothing brand into such a successful sporting brand utilizing his popular social media accounts. In addition, I decided to add an image into "NBA Social Media" to manifest to readers on what specifically are the social medias mentione...
