NDM Baseline assessment: Learner response

Mark - 26
Grade - D

EBI - didn't answer the question 
Miss out on other sides of the argument 
Intro needs work
Need to consider the impact of these changes 

With development in new and digital media we can all have access to different platforms and can compare views and values from just one device, this gives more access to views and values as the audience are exposed to a lot more through social media sites, websites, videos and other sources online. The audience are empowered by these websites to some extent as you can't always control what you see and with people spending most of their time online it could shape the way they see society and shape their norms and values as they have more access to views and values. The problem with this is that we can't always trust things that are online because it isn't always regulated such as the newspaper; with advances in technology people are now recording what's going on in their counties which is called citizen journalism. Without this we wouldn't know what is going on in North Korea and Syria and not only do we get one side of the story we get the view of the citizens who are living in the country and with access to the Internet it is easier, quicker and cheaper to show everyone. Another worldwide story which has taken the spotlight recently is police brutality and the black lives matter campaign, we've seen people share their views and values across social media which gives people greater access to others ideology.
