Metodologiczne wyzwania badania kompetencji medialnych i cyfrowych generacji 50+

Metodologiczne wyzwania badania kompetencji medialnych i cyfrowych generacji 50+

Author(s): Dominika Czerniawska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2014

In recent years the research on digital skills, media literacy, and social aspects of ICT has grown in significance. The 50+ generation is a group of special interest in this field, as it is especially threatened by the digital divide. The experience gained so far and the results of conducted research suggest possible need for a reconsideration of methodological issues. Research methods have been dominated by surveys and individual in‑depth interviews. Both of these have limits and constraints which may influence the interpretation of results and the conclusions drawn from the research. Some research contexts show that operationalization of digital skills and media literacy appears to be problematic. Conclusions from the analysis indicate a need for adjusting research tools, especially by expanding them through the addition of practical tasks.

ТРАДИЦИИ БЛАГОТВОРИТЕЛЬНОСТИ В РОССИЙСКОЙ ЖУРНАЛИСТИКЕ

Author(s): Ludmila Petrovna Gromova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 4/2015

The paper examines the emergence and development of charity traditions in Russian journalism during the 18th and 19th centuries. As early as the dawn of journalism in Russia, the publishers were committed to support the insolvent reader by offering lower-priced subscriptions, sending various supplements and presents, and providing assistance to persons affected by wars or natural disasters. Furthermore, they financially encouraged their authors. Charity as a social function played a significant role in the activity of many publishers and editors, who shaped the public opinion about the necessity of targeted aid to those in need.

Taki mały, taki duży może świętym być. Proces mitologizacji Todora Tose Proeskiego w macedońskiej kulturze popularnej

Taki mały, taki duży może świętym być. Proces mitologizacji Todora Tose Proeskiego w macedońskiej kulturze popularnej

Author(s): Piotr Majewski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2012

In this article, I analyzed the discourses devoted to the Macedonian national hero, Todor "Toše" Proeski. This twenty-six-year-old singer and star of the Macedonian pop scene with the day of his death became the greatest national good of the Macedonians. The social image of Proeski is constructed at every level of public discourse (from popular culture to high culture) and by almost all its participants, both those privileged (clerics, journalists, intellectuals and politicians), as well as "ordinary" citizens. In the methodological concept used by me, Proeska was treated as an example of the "emblem of nationality", in other words as „national form of representation". These "emblems" or "forms" allow individuals and groups to identify with the "imagined community" and legitimize the concept of the nation.

THE NARRATIVE AND SOCIAL MEDIA

THE NARRATIVE AND SOCIAL MEDIA

Author(s): Miranda Holmstrom / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2015

In the Strategic Communications (StratCom) community, we work to get effects, actions, and changes in behaviour from our target audiences. Intuitively one would argue that we are on a mission to persuade people to do things differently, or at least to change their opinions. ‘Winning hearts and minds’ may seem easy, especially when you have the truth, logic, or at least a lot of money on your side. However, years of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan haven proven this to be wrong, and through the fields of social psychology and behavioural economics we now know that there is indeed a bit more to it. Attitudes do not necessarily predict behaviour. Why then is a narrative still so important, or why does propaganda work at all?

THE CATHARTIC FUNCTION OF COMMUNICATION

THE CATHARTIC FUNCTION OF COMMUNICATION

Author(s): Maria Pescaru,Mihaela Luminița Sandu / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2018

Often, communication is defined as a particular form of the exchange relationships between two or more persons, two or more groups. Iassessment or solving of problems, but sharing one's own feelings, the effort to know and understand the other and the cooperation in finding a mutually satisfactory solution. Communication is a dynamic act; it's the gateway between two interior worlds. Effective communication also means the public expression of feelings and emotions. Expressing an emotion allows us to acknowledge it and to recognize ourselves in it. This study proposes to identify the style of communication, to emphasize the intensity of the religious feeling of the participants in the study, as well as their opinion regarding the need to discharge their emotions in the challenging periods of life. This research is, therefore, a necessary step, a good argument in order to raise awareness for the need for communication, and a condition for mobilizing resources in view of this approach. The survey was carried out on a sample of 120 persons, using as instruments the S.C. questionnaire (Analysis of the style of communication), the questionnaire for the assessment of religious feeling (C.E.S.R.), the questionnaire of investigation of the need to discharge one's emotions. The action of listening is an element to which the approaches of the communication phenomenon can no longer only grant a place in the area of interaction, as it can moreover provide perspectives on the size of the relationship and of the interaction itself. One of the limits of this research can be found in the reduced number of participants in the study. Researches to this respect might continue by using a representative sample, by which we could be able to determine to what extent the results show a characteristic of our society by comparison with Western ones and to what extent can we speak about cultural and mentality differences in this respect.Often, communication is defined as a particular form of the exchange relationships between two or more persons, two or more groups.

THE ROLE OF INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND
COMMUNICATION IN COMPETITION AND CONFLICT

THE ROLE OF INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND COMMUNICATION IN COMPETITION AND CONFLICT

Author(s): Gabriela Militaru / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2016

The society is made up of individuals and mirrored by the relationsbetween them. The society is not a simple sum of people, but a network ofconnections among them, the resources they use and the results of theseinteractions. The social interaction is based on social exchange. The object of theindividuals’ exchange can be: information, material objects, activities, psychologicalsupport, emotional feelings etc. When people share information or show supportthey are actually communicating. Therefore people need to communicate in ordernot to feel isolated. Transmitting and receiving information makes them know,analyze, make decisions and, especially, feel accepted. The quality of interpersonalcommunication is given by the way individuals are able to code and decode themessages they send and receive. Sometimes, when there’s a misinterpretation of amessage, the natural cooperation between individuals turns into competition. Thecompetition is conducted according to certain rules and competitors must comply.The reason is that the rules justify the respect for certain values which are superiorto the interests of those who compete. But when competition gets rough it caneasily turn into conflict. In this particularly case, using communication can solve theconflict.

MAXIMIZERS AND SATISFICERS IN CONSUMER CULTURE CHANGES

MAXIMIZERS AND SATISFICERS IN CONSUMER CULTURE CHANGES

Author(s): Ondřej Roubal / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

Consumer culture in the era of late modernity undergoes dynamic changes of global significance. One of the key attributes of these changes constitutes an increasing supply of opportunities and quantitative volumes of different product options. However, this trait of so-called “consumer society” is largely ambivalent. On the one hand, expansion of opportunities constitutes a desirable source of realisation and emancipation of personal freedoms and independence; on the other hand, demands on the ability to individually manage the consequences of one’s own decisions (and to take responsibility for these decisions) increase. We can see this ambivalence well with respect to an example of two different adaptive strategies of consumer choice – maximizers and satisficers. Maximizers are likely to achieve better objective outcomes of their selections than satisficers, but their subjective perception of these results is, according to empirical evidence, more affected by negative emotions. These and other findings should be used more extensively in the marketing practice associated with business strategies.

THE IMPLICATIONS OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. A NEW FORM OF ELECTORAL CAMPAIGN

THE IMPLICATIONS OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN POLITICAL COMMUNICATION. A NEW FORM OF ELECTORAL CAMPAIGN

Author(s): Mihaela Bărbieru / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2015

In this paper, the author, starting from literature, makes a brief analysis of political communication and message transmission during the election campaign via the Internet in general, and through social media in particular. The power of new technologies to mobilize the electorate has been proven in US election campaigns from 2008 when Barak Obama used them with great success, but also in Romania’s presidential campaign in November 2014 when Klaus Iohannis became president as a result of using the social network Facebook. In the short period since it began to be used in political communication, the Internet has managed to transform the way in which politicians, political parties, government organizations, but especially the media and, not least, the citizen acts.

The Concept of Timelessness Applied to Advergames

The Concept of Timelessness Applied to Advergames

Author(s): Zdenko Mago / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

Advergames have been appearing alongside digital games since the very beginning. Although they had been originally created as marketing tools, their gaming nature has made from them an important part of digital-gaming industry heritage. At the same time, advergames, which persisted over time, may represent significant advantages for the brands they promote. The aim of the study is an examination of advergames’ timelessness based on a theoretical framework and a qualitative-quantitative content analysis of advergames released across their history up to 2000, taking into account aspects of both digital games’ and advertising timelessness. Besides general popularity, archetypal character, current playability and preservation, the analysis also focuses on the advergame design and brand implementation forms.

Typology of Game Principles in Digital Games: A Case
Study of Mafia III

Typology of Game Principles in Digital Games: A Case Study of Mafia III

Author(s): Zuzana Bučková / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2019

The presented study dwells on the issue of game theory by Roger Caillois to be applied to the contemporary dimension of digital games. The actual attempt is to find out the extent to which the game principle categories apply to media products, i.e. digital games. The paradigms by authors engaged in cultural anthropology, philosophy, psychology, and sociology, besides others, served as key theoretical groundwork for the present paper. Nevertheless, the theories concluded within media study addressing the game and game principles in contemporary society have not been excluded either. In essence, the theoretical reflection introduces the basic terminology axis creating an apt platform for the game variants in use, to perform within the forms of new reality, i. e. virtual reality. The primary aim is to define elementary concepts like “game”, “game principles”, “media or virtual space”, “digital game”, and “game genres”. Secondary is then to explicate certain game principles designated by Roger Caillois present in the particular game. Material to be applied for this study ranks among the genre of action games. “Action game” particularly is a digital genre that belongs to frequent genre types as well as RPG games, strategy and others. Drawing from this fact, one of the actual digital games called Mafia III was chosen for empirical study. The main purpose of the paper is through logical analysis to illustrate the issue of games, and subsequently point out the cases of their occurrence in the media space. Theoretical postulates by Roger Caillois are by author assumed to be potentially applicable to the current media reality of digital games that come under action genres.

Българските медии и бежанците (2013-2017): интервюта с журналисти за политиките на репрезентация

Българските медии и бежанците (2013-2017): интервюта с журналисти за политиките на репрезентация

Author(s): Teodor Spasov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2018

Interviews with randomly selected journalists were conducted within the survey. They all answered the same questions. Here is a list of some of the most important findings: Bulgarian media are more likely to refuse publishing a text on the subject of refugees on the grounds that it is too tolerant to asylum seekers and refugees than on the grounds that it is too intolerant; journalists are much more critical of non-compliance with ethical media principles on“refugees“ in other media than in those outlets they personally occupy; the majority of journalists notice the transformation of refugees into a new image of the enemy in Bulgarian media; according to the journalists,far-right moods concerning refugees are provoked far more by politicians than by journalists; the fears of some journalists to present refugees in a positive light are not related to „standard pressure“ by internal or political intervention, but they are related to people with radical views, friends and families; the journalists’ harassment of their work on „refugees“ is particularly worrying – 1/5 of journalists admit that they have been harassed at least once because they presented refugees in a positive light.

ФРАГМЕНТИ СЛИКЕ ЕВРОПСКЕ МИГРАНТСКЕ КРИЗЕ У ДНЕВНОЈ ШТАМПИ СРБИЈЕ

Author(s): Zoran B. Jevtović,Predrag Bajić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 4/2019

Although the European migrant crisis has not finished, it is rarely on the front pages, with only occasional reminders that it is still present. In this way, the stories of migrants, refugees and asylum seekers remained out of public focus, although they were numerous in time when the crisis was at its peak. By using quantitative and qualitative content analysis, the authors researched the ways in which migrants, refugees and asylum seekers are highlighted as individuals on the front pages of Serbian daily newspapers (Politika, Danas, Večernje novosti, Blic, Kurir, Alo and Informer) between the beginning of 2015 and the end of the first half of 2018, as well as how the image about them in this context was upgraded, confirmed or changed. During the research, two directions were clearly noticed - indicating a humanitarian character on the one hand and a security aspect on the other. The results also point to the difference between the dominant narratives in the tabloids and in the quality press. Unlike the sensationalist discourse in tabloids, mixed with fear and panic, or a quick excitement of the readers, quality press is developing the human aspect of the migrant crisis, with elements of critical research.

Дизайнът - иновативна проекция на разбирането за комуникацията в процеса на обучение

Author(s): Nina Gerdzhikova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 9/2019

The article examines the essence of the term „design“, which is increasingly used in scientific publications on didactics. The position to be defended here is related to the transformations in the theory of learning and the expanding influence on the role of situativity in the realization of the teacher-student interaction. The communication between them is related to the expertise in which the complex relationships between strategic thinking and action lead to the emergence of the „learning“ reality. Particularly important features of the design are creativity and perfectionality. Thanks to them, the teacher designs the training course in full and provides various scenarios for the course. In this respect, the knowledge and use of learning theories is an important prerequisite for the realization of the design approach to teaching.
