    Without doing your homework for you, Mass media is obviously communication on a large-scale basis and interpersonal communications on a one-on-one or small groups such as small businesses or even larger corporations. Mass media could be viewed as a firehose spraying a large area as opposed to a squirt-gun in spraying interpersonal communication. :>)
