Week 8 - Abstract 2

This journal looks at children and the effects of new media in general on young people and how the different media has different effects. It highlights how young people adapt themselves to the uses of the different types of media by taking each medium separately with occasional reference to digital divides among British families. By looking at the different types of media and effects enables the author to pinpoint different ‘characteristics’ that come from the new media, and how they effect different areas of social lives, enhancing the impact of new media on society.
