According to the article, “What Is New Media?” written by Bailey Socha and Barbara Eber-Schmid, new media is “a 21st century catchall term used to define all that is related to the internet and the interplay between technology, images, and sound.” New media gives society the ability to access the internet at any place in the world and at any time. Traditional or old media is the form of print writing or Web 1.0 that was based on finding information rather than connecting and communicating with people. The article “Traditional vs. New Media: The Balancing Effect” written by Grant Christian, describes traditional media by being “television, newspaper, radio, and magazine ads” and Christian says new media is the “online streaming (radio and television)
This project examines the pros and cons of E-books and print books and whether or not one is better than the other, or the other way around, which includes many topics of which is better for education or free reading. The point is not trying to prove that one should be gotten rid of, but for the point of which has been proven to be more effective in such areas.

Web publishing is the process of developing and maintaining, and posting Web pages. With the proper hardware and software, Web publishing is fairly easy to accomplish. For example, clip galleries offer a variety of images, videos, and sounds.1[1] A sound card allows users to incorporate sounds into Web pages. With a microphone, a Web page can include voice. A digital camera provides a means to capture digital photographs. A scanner can convert existing photographs and other graphics into a digital format. A video capture card and a video camera can incorporate videos into Web pages. A video digitizer can capture still images from a video (Thrall and Winters 46-68).
Technology has changed many aspects of our lives, so why should we expect less of the classroom atmosphere? Technology in the classroom has changed the way students learn and the way teachers teach. Technology today is integrated into the classroom as a teaching tool rather than being taught as a course. There are many ways that technology is used in today’s classroom such as the World Wide Web, Power Point, and Excel (Starr, 2011). Teachers will continue to be the most important aspect of a child’s education because they teach and technology does not. The use of technology in the classroom can bring advantages to a child’s education but can also bring disadvantages (Cleaver, 2011).

When zooming into radio listenership, figures displayed on SABC’s website indicate that 84% of the South African population under the age of fifteen listens

However, in the millions of media’s concept, the concept related to new media attracted most of my attention.
