This paper will discuss how various collections of materials and documents that discuss the nature of change affects an individual's life and the people around one's environment. For this paper, the collection of materials that will be tackled regarding the role, process, conditions, and effects of change are of different media forms, such as newspaper and magazine articles, visual illustrations, novel, poetry, movie, documentary, and Internet text.
