Formats is important because It demonstrates that you can follow instructions. If you were a hiring manager, you would not want to hire someone who either doesn’t, won’t, or can’t follow directions. It provides consistency. Your readers, whether they are your professors, your boss and coworkers, or your clients, won’t have to guess how you organized your ideas. It facilitates practice of discipline and adherence to standards. I can’t think of a field that doesn’t have some set of standards, such as how to meet web accessibility issues or provide network security. Learning to stick to standards takes practice. It allows you to focus your efforts on content. There are no surprises in how you create a cover page or put the reference list together when you use an established method.

One of the most striking aspects of classical literature is its highly developed sense of genre. Of course, a literary work’s genre remains an important factor today. We too distinguish broad categories of poetry, prose, and drama, but also sub-genres especially within the novel, now the most popular literary form such as crime, romantic or historical fiction. We do the same in other creative media, such as film, with thrillers, horrors, westerns, and so on. But classical authors were arguably even more aware than writers of genre fiction are today what forms and conventions applied to the genre they were writing in. All ancient literary texts are written in a particular genre, such as epic, or tragedy.

All media messages are constructed using a particular set of codes and conventions. Codes and conventions are used together in any study of genre it is not enough to discuss a technical code used such as camera work, without saying how it is conventionally used in a genre.

Representation is a way of presenting reality again. Media texts present reality again as it intentionally chooses, writes, composes, frames, edits, so that we see are entirely constructed and artificial versions of the reality we perceive.

The background is a debate about how the change character of  media culture change through the use of modern information technology. New ways to search for knowledge, entertainment and social interaction brings both opportunities and risks, especially for us, young media users. There is a need for  more discussion of the importance of media and information literacy to increase our awareness of how the media works, give us the tools to interpret and evaluate the information they provide and stimulate their own creative expression.

In recent years, Media & Information Literacy has been increasingly recognized as a critical element in good governance and accountability. This is partly due to the rapid growth in technologies, which has contributed to a changing media landscape and new forms of citizen engagement.

When we think about the mass media there are so many different forms in which we receive information. Television, commercials, radio, newspapers, internet, and billboard ads, just to mention a few. The messages we receive from the mass media are a constructed reality of what the media is telling us about our world and how we fit into it. The significance of the media has two functions, either positive or negative. First, on the positive side, the media helps to inform us on events that are happening around us, as well as, letting us know what events are happening around the world. The mass media is fast moving and ever present in our lives and as viewers and recipients of the mass media we can take from it what we need to be well informed, while also being critical of the negative aspects. Mass media usually are thought of as sources of news and entertainment. They also carry messages of persuasion. Important, though often overlooked, is how mass messages bind people into communities, even into nations.

When you send a text message to another person, you are using the cellphone as the communication. Your message sent through the cellphone transmitted by the signals provided by the mobile phone company. It is a form of mediated interpersonal communication assisted by the technology provided cellphones.

In this lesson we’ve discussed about the historical overview of communications. As population increased, people became more exposed. The people develops their communication with one another and how they passed on information to different people. Base on our discussion communication is the process of conveying information. Almost all species have some sort of communication system. However, successful communication is the trait that has made humans the most successful species.
