COMMUNICATING IN A MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY AND WORLD: COMMUNICATION AND GLOBALIZATION GROUP-2  ALIZAT OB IO GL N Globalization enables movement of people, goods, and ideas across international borders freely. It integrates markets, trade, and investments, reducing barriers between nations globally. Cultural exchange occurs as traditions and ideas are shared and assimilated. The Silk Road was an early form of globalization, linking China and Europe. Technology, like the internet and email, has greatly accelerated globalization's pace. Wise globalization brings peace and prosperity; poorly done, it may cause disaster. GLOBALIZATION: HAPPENING NOW Globalization refers to the growing interaction among people and companies globally. This trend is driven by advances in technology, communication, and transportation. It leads to economic integration, international trade, and cultural exchanges worldwide. The Internet accelerates global connections, shrinking the world into a "global village." Travel, communication, and international commerce are easier due to globalization’s impact. Awareness of cultural differences is crucial in today's interconnected global society.  GOOD ABOUT GLOBALIZATION BAD ABOUT GLOBALIZATION Globalization lifts millions from poverty by Globalization shifts jobs, benefiting some areas providing jobs and boosting local economies. while others lose employment opportunities.

Global cooperation, like the Paris Agreement, Cancel Culture enforces mob justice, with harsh, tackles shared challenges like climate change. often disproportionate, and unforgiving reactions. COMMUNICATION AND GLOBALIZATION Communication is vital for building relationships, collaboration, and unifying conflicting ideas. Globalization integrates cultural, political, economic, and technological aspects across interconnected countries. Companies like Toyota, Jollibee, and Starbucks have expanded into multinational businesses globally. Technological advancements have made communication smoother and faster across regions worldwide. Efficient communication tools, like email and social media, enhance business transactions globally. Globalization demands strong communication skills to engage with diverse backgrounds and perspectives..  CULTURAL IMPERIALISM Cultural imperialism is the dominance of powerful nations' culture over weaker societies. It stems from Western colonialism, creating a divide between East and West cultures. Less powerful nations adopt Western technologies, changing domestic cultures and values. English becomes the global lingua franca, spreading Western perspectives through media. People take English proficiency tests for global mobility and career opportunities. Language loyalty fades as many embrace Western identity and English for success.  MASS COMMUNICATIONS Mass communications are messages that are communicated through the mass media. It relies more on quantity than quality, while interpersonal communications are the opposite. Mass communications can reach more people at one time than interpersonal communications can. One of the key differences between interpersonal communications and mass communications is the feedback, which mass communications lack. Though the mass media still attempt to assess their ability to connect with audiences. MASS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMMUNITIES Some people defend mass communications as a means of reconfiguring our sense of community, away from a sense of shared physical space that is based on shared interests. The one-sidedness of mass media means that most mass media are driven by profits, rather than a social exchange. Traditional media now encourage their audiences to use the Internet, text messaging, and social media to comment on the articles or programs that these media distribute.  MASS COMMUNICATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY: GUTENBERG The German printer Johannes Gutenberg (1398-1468) often is credited with inventing movable type around 1440. Movable type was a significant improvement in bookmaking, which involved either handwritten manuscripts or the use of carved woodblocks. It also fostered the Reformation, a religious movement that began in Germany (1500). The first important book that Gutenberg published was the Bible in 1455.  MASS COMMUNICATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY: THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION To explore their relationship, we use the chocolate industry as an example. Beginning in the 1840s, Baker's Chocolate of Dorchester, Massachusetts is believed to be the first branded, packaged grocery item in the United States. Years after that chocolate was introduced, Milton Hershey built what was then the world's largest chocolate factory, producing the first molded chocolate bar at the turn of the early twentieth century. The Hershey chocolate bar exemplifies two conditions for the rise of the mass media in the nineteenth century: it has a brand name, and is mass manufactured.  MASS MEDIA AND MASS MARKETS Mass media targets audiences by demographics and psychographics, influencing consumer habits. Different media cater to specific groups, like women, ethnicities, or age demographics. Advertisers push disaggregation by focusing on media platforms that attract their desired customers. Major conglomerates such as Sony and Bertelsmann own multiple media outlets in film, music, and publishing. While media products entertain and inform, their main goal is profit. Overall, mass media deeply influences modern culture and how we spend our time.  THE INTERNET TODAY INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS In the 1990s, dial-up service was the most convenient and affordable way to access the Internet, with many Americans relying on it for a decade. AOL and other companies offered free Internet time to encourage subscriptions. As the Internet gained popularity, companies like AOL had to adapt and generate revenue from selling advertising space on the Internet.  THE INTERNET TODAY Business Models for Internet Sites Government agencies, businesses, and organizations are increasingly utilizing the internet for various purposes, including purchasing stamps, contacting politicians, and accessing tax forms. These websites also allow members to pay dues and stay updated on activities. 1.VIRTUAL RETAILERS Businesses use the Internet for convenience, instant gratification, and quick fulfillment of services. Virtual businesses like Amazon offer online shopping, while physical stores use websites for advertising. Consumers appreciate the ability to shop anytime, anywhere, enjoying the ease of online access. 2.

They monetize by upselling services, providing free content, and catering to personal interests. However, concerns arise over internet addiction, especially with the booming online pornography industry. 4. ADVERTISER-SUPPORTED CONTENT PROVIDERS Websites rely on advertising firms for revenue, similar to older media models. A newer pricing model, cost per click (CPC), charges advertisers based on site visitors' clicks. Internet search sites like Google and Yahoo heavily rely on CPC advertising for revenue.  THE INTERNET IN THE FUTURE CLOUD COMPUTING Many use web services and applications rather than computer-based software to communicate. Relying on web-based e-mail services such as Hot Mail or G-mail.

To prevent visual overload, text should be succinct and images should be kept to a minimum. For simpler viewing, a lot of websites have mobile-friendly versions. It’s frequently important to generate distinct documents for desktop and mobile formats. Develop modular content stored in a database for managing extensive information effectively. Using the digital Technology Digital tool improves communication , collaboration, and learning in a number of ways.
