What t101 made me realize is how much of a digital footprint we have all left behind without even realizing. Media has become an essential part of our lives in terms of every day functioning to self expression. More and more everyday technology is vastly improving and making media a main staple in almost everything …

Meghan Burke- T101 Media Life
Throughout my high school and college education thus far, I have had many classes that make me think deeply about certain assignments or subjects. But none of these have ever made me realize something about my own life that I had never realized or notice before. During the course of this class, I have become …
Why I Heart My Media 12/5/11
What is the point of looking at yourself and the world we live in from the perspective of living in media? The answer is in the question; the point of looking at ourselves and the world from this perspective is because life as we know it is making a shift into media. I may be …
T101 media life- Lauren Math
This class is all about how we use our media every day. Media is all around us and we all use it, this use of media is affecting how we view our world, and how we interact with everyone. This class makes you question our reality and makes you question what you are really doing …

Media Lives
The main point of the course with all the information we received boils down to the Truman show and how integrated media is with our lives. To best answer this I think an example would be best. Right before I wrote this I saw a Windows 7 pc commercial where a couple was on the …
What Is The Point?
I believe that taking media life can open your eyes – pun intended – to all of the media that we consume on a regular basis. Before taking this course, I was so unaware of how much media controlled my life. Now – I find myself searching for what is real and taking advantage of …
Derek Luttrell – Media Life 101
Like me, you probably registered for this class, noticed it’s a lecture with about 400 kids, and–as our minimally active, underdeveloped minds have taught us–instinctively thought “YES! I can totally skip this class on a weekly basis.” This, for the most part, is true. I had this revelation on this first day of class, but, …
