Symposium on the Mediatization of the Youth

Symposium on the Mediatization of the Youth
Speaker:Rev. Fr. Christian Buenafe, (OCD)

Media ia a part of communication process and the strongest man-made for that can
influence people. It has many forms, the print, broadcast, electronic, group, flok/traditional
and non-media.
Media creates culture and it shapes the landscape of our children's minds. Many prefer media as their ideology, perspective, lifestyle and a way of life. It has a big rule in shaping the
values and behavior not only for children but also for adult.
However, media has many uses, but it has a big effect especially to the youth who are the primary target of media. Children today are losing the sense of basic good manners. Some result to electronic violence and indifference. And nowadays some adult has increasingly come to mean dirty.
