The use of new media could benefit Baruch College substantially. By using this, it will teach students real life skills that they will use beyond their years at college. Many companies today, have social media positions, so this could really be a great thing. Instead of using email to contact professors, twitter would be a great option to get in contact. It gives a more personal way of communicating and will also help the professors feel more comfortable with each other. Another great use of new media will let students express their creativity more. Many times, students often become bored in their classes, and feel like they are wasting their time. By using new media, students may be able to become more engaged in the course, and express themselves in a way which makes what they are learning interesting. New media is something that all college’s should use more, it will cause many benefits within the classroom.

I definitely agree that professors should use twitter accounts. I think professors need to stay up to date with the modern technologies so students will feel like they can actually relate to them, rather than just sitting in an old fashioned lecture and not paying attention which is what usually happens! New Media can really benefit the environment of classrooms.
