The old media vs. the new media

It’s sunday evening and the first week of the Global Change education has passed. A lot of impressions and insights has been in my mind and challenged my existing knowledge and ideas. I especially find the relation between new and old media interesting. How can the new media supplement the use of the old media, and in what contexts and for what purpose is the new media to be prefered? When people talk about new or old media, it is a question of either…or… I find it very crusial to think about for what specific purpose the new and old media can be used, and how they can strenthing eachother to reach the specific goal. The new media has potential to reach people and create social change in a different way and has a different reach out. This is of course very important to explore and take advantage of. Though, do not forget the strenghts of the old media!
