Marshall McLuhan

• "The medium is the message" because it is the "medium that shapes and controls the scale and form of human association and action." (Understanding Media, 1964, p. 9)

Page 16: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization

How do you decide which channel to choose?

• What are the important factors to students?

• What are the important factors to other groups of people?

Page 17: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization

Behaviors

• Is the choice of medium defined by the attributes of the medium, by social norms, by both, or by some other factor?

• Why CC someone?

• Why BCC someone?
