survived.

on a printing press with movable type in
1453.

world received printed materials, although
books remained too expensive really to be
called a mass-medium for at least a century
after that.
8. HISTORY: 1600-1800
*Newspapers developed around from 1612,
with the first example in English in 1620; but
they took until the nineteenth century to
reach a mass-audience directly.
9. HISTORY: 20TH CENTURY
*The growth of mass media in this century
was driven by technology that allowed the
massive duplication of material.
*Physical duplication technologies such as
printing, record pressing and film
duplication allowed the duplication of
books, newspapers and movies at low
prices to huge audiences.
Radio and television allowed the electronic
duplication of information for the first time.

since the late 20th century also through video and
computer games.
Public service announcements.
37. MASS MEDIA ECONOMICS

replication:
―a single work could make money
proportional to the number of copies sold,
and as volumes went up, units costs went
down, increasing profit margins further.‖
38. MEDIA INFLUENCE

serve to educate the public/electorate about
issues regarding government and corporate
entities. This is called Media influence.

Identify the different types of printed
mass media, and their application in
education.
43. JOURNALISM
*Journalism is a discipline of collecting,
analyzing, verifying, and presenting
information regarding current events,
trends, issues and people.
Those who practice journalism are known
as journalists.
44. JOURNALISM
News-oriented journalism is sometimes
described as the "first rough draft of
history" (attributed to Phil Graham),
because journalists often record important
events, producing news articles on short
deadlines.
45. JOURNALISM
While under pressure to be first with their
stories, news media organizations usually
edit and proofread their reports prior to
publication, adhering to each
organization's standards of accuracy,
quality and style.
Many news organizations claim proud
traditions of holding government officials
and institutions accountable to the public,
while media critics have raised questions
46. PUBLIC RELATIONS
Public relations is the art and science of
managing communication between an
organization and its key publics to build,
manage and sustain its positive image.
47. PUBLIC RELATIONS
Corporations use marketing public
relations (MPR) to convey information
about the products they manufacture or
services they provide to potential
customers to support their direct sales
efforts.
Typically, they support sales in the short
and long term, establishing and burnishing
the corporation's branding for a strong,
ongoing market.
48. PUBLIC RELATIONS
Corporations also use public-relations as a
vehicle to reach decision makers, and they
may use public relations to portray
themselves as enlightened employers, in
support of human-resources recruiting
programs.
49. PUBLIC RELATIONS
Non-profit organizations, including schools
and universities, hospitals, and human and
social service agencies, use public
relations in support of awareness
programs, fund-raising programs, staff
recruiting, and to increase patronage of
their services.
Decision makers use public relations to
raise money, promote and defend their
service in office
50. NEWSPAPER
A newspaper is a publication containing
news and information and advertising,
usually printed on low-cost paper called
newsprint.
It may be general or special interest, most
often published daily or weekly.
The first printed newspaper was published
in 1605, and the form has thrived even in
the face of competition from technologies
such as radio and television.
51. NEWSPAPER
Recent developments on the Internet are
posing major threats to its business model.
Paid circulation is declining in most
countries, and advertising revenue, which
makes up the bulk of a newspaper's
income, is shifting from print to online.
Some commentators, nevertheless, point
out that historically new media such as
radio and television did not entirely
supplant existing.
52. PUBLISHING
Publishing is the industry concerned with
the production of literature or information –
the activity of making information available
for public view.
In some cases, authors may be their own
publishers.
53. PUBLISHING
*Traditionally, the term refers to the distribution
of printed works such as books and newspapers.
*With the advent of digital information systems
and the Internet, the scope of publishing has
expanded to include websites, blogs, and the
like.
As a business, publishing includes the
development, marketing, production, and
distribution of newspapers, magazines, books,
literary works, musical works, software, other
works dealing with information.
54. BOOK
*A book is a collection of sheets of paper,
parchment or other material with a piece of
text written on them, bound together along
one edge within covers.
A book is also a literary work or a main
division of such a work.
*A book produced in electronic format is
known as an e-book.
55. BOOK
In library and information science, a book
is called a monograph to distinguish it from
serial publications such as magazines,
journals or newspapers.
Publishers may produce low-cost, pre-
proof editions known as galleys or 'bound
proofs' for promotional purposes, such as
generating reviews in advance of
publication.
56. MAGAZINE
*A magazine is a periodical publication
containing a variety of articles, generally
financed by advertising and/or purchase
by readers.
57. MAGAZINE
Magazines are typically published weekly,
biweekly, monthly, bimonthly or quarterly,
with a date on the cover that is in advance

They are often printed in color on coated
paper, and are bound with a soft cover.
*Magazines fall into two broad categories:
consumer magazines and business
magazines.
58. MAGAZINE
*In practice, magazines are a subset of
periodicals, distinct from those periodicals
produced by scientific, artistic, academic
or special interest publishers which are
subscription-only, more expensive,
narrowly limited in circulation, and often
have little or no advertising.
59. MAGAZINE
*Magazines can be classified as:
General interest magazines (e.g. Oman daily,
Al Watan, etc)
Special interest magazines (educational,
sports, business, diving, etc)
60. EDUCATION JOURNALISM
*Journalism that focuses on what goes on
inside classrooms requires that journalists
know something about education.
There’s much journalism about schools that
is important and compelling but that is not
precisely about education.
Covering the school board, for example, is
important.
Education writers, however, need to also be
able to communicate clearly about the heart
of the matter—teaching and learning.
61. EDUCATION JOURNALISM
*what goes on inside classrooms is a
complicated interaction between and
among students, and with their teacher,
while wrestling with important content.
And all of those interactions are influenced
by what happens outside of class and
outside the school.
