Theories Review
Theories covered are: Social Cognitive Theory Uses and Gratifications Theory Social Information Processing
Cellphones: Past and Present
First cellphone started to be sold in 1986 and was produced by Motorola
Cellphones today are completely different thanks to the inventions of the iPhone and Android
The inclusion of apps on these smartphones have changed how we use them tremendously
Future of Cellphones
Phones will continue to get smaller and lighter so it is easier for you to carry them around while also they will become more innovative
New innovations will include better camera possibilities, 3D screen and the ability to project videos and keyboard in a 3D format
Social Cognitive Theory for Cell Phones
States that portions of an individual's knowledge acquisition can be directly related to observing others within the context of social interactions, experiences, and outside media influences
As cell phones evolve, the older generation will lean on the younger generation to teach them how to use these new phones and all of its new features
Television: Past and Present
Televisions have evolved over the past century from box TVs now to big screen TVs and now to flat screen TVs while also adding color to the screen
Recently, the introduction of the smart TV has changed everything people can do with a TV now
You can now access the internet, use Netflix, and listen to Pandora thru your TV
Future of Televisions
TV sets will become nonexistent and instead there will be a small device that you control that can project the screen on your wall or wherever you want to watch it
In the device, OLED lights will be used to make the picture look like its real life and happening right in front of you
Uses and Gratification Theory for Television
An approach to understanding why and how people actively seek out specific media to satisfy specific needs.
As people’s needs evolve, with the evolution of the TV it can help people reach their needs thru their respective TV thru their different apps
Online Gaming: Past and Present
Graphic have evolved extremely in the past decade and with the invention of Xbox Live, it allows users to connect with other users online and lets them talk to each other and play against each other
Unlimited types of games categories that allow you to play whatever type of genre you like
Inventions of PS4 and Xbox One have further advanced the reality of the games
Future of Online Gaming
Users will be wearing headsets that lets them feel like they are actually in the games and also can control the video game with their hands instead of a controller.
Also like TVs, games will become more 3D and interactive and on Xbox Live, you will be able to see the other persons face when you talk to them
Social Information Processing for Online Gaming
People are motivated to develop interpersonal relationships regardless of the medium and will develop strategies for overcoming the apparent lack of nonverbal cues typically found in Internet-based communication
When you use Xbox Live, the ability to now see the other person’s face while talking to them will now minimize the lack of nonverbal cues that used to exist on this platform
