Pengertian KTK /

CMC
MAIN OBJECTIVES: (1) Examine ways of defining what computer
mediated communication entails. (2) Understand the core concepts
communication , mediated and computer . (3) Identify the connections
between CMC and Internet Studies. (4) Appreciate the potential
diversity and range of CMC as a scholarly field.
Definisi pakar KTK
Gerry Santoro (1995: 11) has put it: At its broadest, CMC can encompass
virtually all computer uses including such diverse applications as
statistical analysis programs, remote-sensing systems, and financial
modelling programs, all fit within the concept of human
communication.
John December (1997): Computer Mediated Communication is a
process of human communication via computers, involving people,
situated in particular contexts, engaging in processes to shape media for
a variety of purposes.
Susan Herring (1996): CMC is communication that takes place between
human beings via the instrumentality of computers.
Artikel ilmiah tentang KTK
another good way of learning what the term encompasses is simply by
looking at scholarly publications
Nonetheless, at the end of the day, to know what a field is about is
really only to know what people who describe themselves as members
of the field are actually doing.

the Journal of Online Behavior [ BT1:5]. Founded in 2000,
The Journal of Online Behavior is concerned with the empirical study of
human behavior in the online environment, and with the impact of
evolving communication and information technology upon individuals,
groups, organizations, and society.
Computers in Human Behavior
Computers in Human Behavior is a scholarly journal the use of
computers in psychology as well as the psychological impact of
computer use on individuals, groups and society. The latter category
includes the psychological effects of computers on phenomena such as
human development, learning, cognition, personality, and social
interactions. The computer is discussed only as a medium through
which human behaviors are shaped and expressed.

In practice CMC is usually concerned more specifically with human
interpersonal communication on, through and about the internet and
web.
two strategies for identifying the key principles and issues which define
the field of CMC: scholarly definitions and scholarly discussions.
Perhaps the most effective way of pinning down CMC is, we believe, to
try and pin down the core concepts.
CORE CONCEPT 1:
COMMUNICATION <?>
...
Pergeseran ‘makna’ komunikasi dengan perubahan teknologi (yang baru
vs lama)
asking yourself what’s the same and what’s different about
communication when people use technology to do it.
that this book is essentially concerned (1) with
human communication rather than media or
mass communication or communications
technology per se , and (2) with social
interaction.
Sifat komunikasi (h 25) <?>
Dinamis
Transaksional
Multifungsional
Multimodal
What all four have in common, however, is that they are also central to
understanding how communication works and how it’s used to express
our identities, to establish and maintain relationships, and eventually to
build communities – three of the most important themes in CMC.
CORE CONCEPT 2: MEDIATED
<?>
...
Mediasi/channel
Psikologis
can be social (or cultural), psychological (or mental), linguistic (or
symbolic) or material (or technical).
Tambahan channel untuk CMC = mediasi teknologikal
CMC usually restricts what it means by technology to the machinery
designed, built and used for the purposes of information exchange and
communication. This is what is usually referred to as (or ICTs) and brings
us nicely to the last of CMC’s core concepts.
Core concept 3: computer <?>
...
our perspective will be focused on that computing technology which
more explicitly facilitates human communication defined in the terms
we introduced above. In other words, we are more interested in the ‘C’
of ICTs than the ‘I’.
in this book we’re primarily focused on the ways people make
conversation, build communities and construct identities through, and
by means of, new communication technologies – or what might more
accurately be described as ‘technologies for communication’. In
particular, like most CMC more exciting of communication technologies:
the internet.
Its nature, CMC is a multidisciplinary or multiperspective effort. As such,
CMC is best regarded as a scholarly field of study rather than as a neatly
defined discipline .
CMC is subfiled of Internet studies
this book is based on the psychology, social psychology and, to an
extent, sociology of online communication. Furthermore, we’re
specifically concerned with (1) patterns of linguistic and communicative
practice, and (2) processes of social interaction such as identity,
relationship and community.
