'Mediatization of the Youth"

Speaker: Rev. Fr, Christian Buenafe, O'carm

A.)

"The advantages and disadvantages

of media"

The media is very important now a day, but Media has also advantages and disadvantages, like it will make you busy and you can even meet new friends in many ways, through cellular phone and Internet. You can also communicate to your relatives in other country and it will helps you also to relax like playing games, watching T.V or listening music Media will also help you to improve your Interpersonal skills and most important you can gather advises.

But here comes the disadvantages, it will cause sexual exploration in opposite sex specially those gays who engage in cybersex.
Cybersex provides safer and faster access to p0rnographic materials. Media is very important in my part specially that I am a student but in my own opinion we must use the media in good and advantageous ways.

"THE INTERNET''

B.)

The Internet has many contribution in Media here is the fact 60% of children between 7-16 already know if what is Internet so we can really say that internet is very important in the world of Media, it can make your work faster and effective in many ways, like researching you can gather many ideas. It will make your work faster, for example you are going to order products in other place now, you not go anymore in their company instead can simply use the Internet connection in ordering. We can also use the Internet in communicating to other people or your family who are in abroad you can also see there faces in Internet using a camera, you can also have friends through Internet and you can gather many information by using the Internet. But you can't use Internet without a computer; computer is also a powerful technology, there where you can type the information you are going to express or tell to your chat mate or to your family who are far away from you.


"Hapag ng pag-asa"

C.)

The artist Joey Velasco’s portrait of the young asks us more questions about ourselves rather than probe the hapag children. This is my realization when I was watching the short movie of Hapag ng pag asa by Joey Velasco, The hapag is All about the young people with Jesus in the Table sharing love together, When I stare at them I feel that they are looking at me asking my help and it is very obvious that they are suffering, I also ask my self if what I am one of the young people who were there in the hapag painting? can I survive?. We must realize that we should give importance to our self because this was given by our Loving father and we shouldn't thanks our God that he gave us many blessings and others were not because it is unfair on the part of poor young people instead we should help them even in just simple ways. The painting gave me many lessons and I promise to myself that I will do my best to achieve my dreams and someday I will help the young people in order for them to have a brighter future.
