The medium is the message. Publications[edit] The phrase was introduced in his most widely known book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man, published in 1964.[1] McLuhan proposes that a medium itself, not the content it carries, should be the focus of study. He said that a medium affects the society in which it plays a role not only by the content delivered over the medium, but also by the characteristics of the medium itself. McLuhan frequently punned on the word "message", changing it to "mass age", "mess age", and "massage"; a later book, The Medium Is the Massage was originally to be titled The Medium is the Message, but McLuhan preferred the new title, which is said to have been a printing error.

Key Concepts[edit] Extending the argument for understanding the medium as the message itself, he proposed that the “content of any medium is always another medium”[5] – thus, the content of writing is speech, print is that of writing and print itself is the content of the telegraph.

Door Tom Braams Zoals uit veel informatie op deze site duidelijk zal zijn geworden, is een effectieve behandeling van dyslexie altijd op de taal gericht.

Hoe meer iemand begrijpt van de spelling, des te minder hij op zijn taalgevoel hoeft te vertrouwen. Hoe beter iemand weet hoe woorden zijn opgebouwd, des te meer steun hij heeft bij het lezen van die woorden. En hoe meer iemand inzicht heeft in de logische opbouw van een tekst, des te gemakkelijker is zo’n tekst te begrijpen en te onthouden. Naast de taalgerichte behandeling van dyslexie worden er in Nederland ook vele anders gerichte behandelingen aangeboden. In dit stuk worden enkele alternatieve behandelingen kort besproken. Het schadelijke van alle hier vermelde therapieën is niet alleen dat de lees- en spellingproblemen van dyslectische kinderen er niet door verholpen worden en dat een investering in zo’n therapie weggegooid geld is.
