| dc.description.abstract | The communication process is the perfect guide toward achieving effective communication. The Components of communication process is as important as the word communication itself; because they further help to understand the word and the things/process involved. The channel through which communication takes place usually determines the nature of the engagements. The closest thing to a portable mass medium was reading a book or paper on a commute to and from work. New media, however, are more personal and more social than old media. So, what makes “new media” new media? The use of technology; Today, old media are almost always paired with new media – newspapers and magazines have online versions, as well as their own blogs, television networks produce a great deal of online content related to their programming, etc. Broadcasters of the traditional media especially radio now take advantage of the emergence of podcasting by making available programs for better coverage and relevance; knowing that the medium avails the opportunity to upload these programs episodically and be listened to multiple times, hence apart from just relevance it gives an avenue to encourage the culture and bring about the much-adorned social change among the teaming Nigeria youths. The media ecology theory posits that, it’s not technological abnormality that demands our attention since it’s hard not to notice the new and different. Instead, we need to focus on our everyday experience of technology, invariably it means that the human inventions enhance communication Podcasting seems to be an alternative to owning a radio station where one would have to go through the hassle of getting a license to air, cost of purchasing and supply of broadcast equipment and getting monitored. It is important that there are certain regulationsto safeguard content while upholding our national heritage and security. | |
