The Process of Remembering with the Forgotten Australians: Digital Storytelling and Marginalized Groups
2012
Digital storytelling projects have proliferated in Australia since the early 2000s, and have been theorized as a means to disseminate the stories and voices of “ordinary” people. In this paper I examine through the case study of a 2009 digital storytelling project between the Australasian Centre for Interactive Design and a group identifying as Forgotten Australian whether digital storytelling in its predominant workshop-based format is able to meet the needs of profoundly marginalized and traumatized individuals and groups. For digital storytelling to be of use to marginalized groups as a means of communication or reflection a significant re-examination of the current approaches to its for…
Hierarkiat yläkoulun kaveriporukoissa : nuoren kokema sosiaalinen asema ja liikkuminen
2021
The low level of physical activity among young people has become a common societal concern. This study sought new information on the backgrounds of adolescents’ physical activity. The aim was to find out whether the adolescents’ subjective social status is related to physical activity. The data were collected as part of the follow-up research and evaluation of the Finnish Schools on the Move programme in 2012–2015. The data were collected through student surveys, measuring adolescents’ physical activity with accelerometers, and observing and interviewing secondary school students. The associations between adolescents’ subjective social status and physical activity, as well as the factors re…
Sport and Quality of Life
2022
Negli ultimi trent’anni lo sport ha assunto un significato molto rilevante nella vita delle persone e, seppure con notevoli differenze, sia nei paesi a sviluppo economico avanzato, sia in quelli in via di sviluppo. A livello individuale, esso ha costituito un’area di investimento identitario quando ha assunto la forma di sport spettacolo del quale fruire, alimentando la pratica del tifo e il fandom o costituendo il modello di uno stile di vita vincente; ma anche quando ha assunto la forma di pratica del tempo libero attraverso la quale tenersi in forma, facendo crescere, in questo caso, la diffusione di una cultura della salute e del benessere. Si tratta di due modalità di approcciare al co…
Processi di consultazione e partecipazione: un quadro generale
2009
L’analisi delle motivazioni che hanno portato, in più parti del mondo, ad avviare pratiche di consultazione parte da una constatazione condivisa da molti: la crisi della democrazia rappresentativa e il conseguente tentativo di rivitalizzarla, introducendo forme di democrazia deliberativa. Marilena Macaluso analizza questo ed altri elementi, come la sindrome NIMBY che blocca le grandi opere, e presenta modalità di consultazione diverse ma con un comune obiettivo: rilegittimare i processi decisionali, coinvolgendo i soggetti interessati, e, quindi, ricomporre il conflitto. Macaluso ci parla della consultazione supportata dalle nuove tecnologie; delle indicazioni di ONU, OCSE e UE in materia d…
Partecipazione 2.0: l’avatar scende in piazza (paper 6.3.2.)
2011
Al declino della partecipazione elettorale ed alla crisi delle capacità identificanti dei partiti fanno da contrappeso nuove forme di partecipazione politica. I new media in tale contesto hanno un ruolo essenziale sia per i grandi movimenti transnazionali, sia per i comitati locali single issue e per mobilitazioni spontanee caratterizzate dal passare con estrema rapidità dal mondo virtuale alle piazze. Nuove forme di democrazia integrano le democrazie rappresentative. Le tecnologie per la comunicazione e l’informazione hanno un forte impatto sulla definizione dei confini e dell’identità della comunità politica e possono contribuire a trasformare i processi decisionali pubblici, incrementand…
Collaborative Design Rational and Social Creativity in Cultures of Participation
2011
The rise in social computing has facilitated a shift from consumer cultures, focused on producing finished media to be consumed passively, to cultures of participation, where people can access the means to participate actively in personally meaningful problems. These developments represent unique and fundamental opportunities and challenges for rethinking and reinventing design rationale and creativity, as people acclimate to taking part in computer-mediated conversations of issues and their solutions. Grounded in our long-term research exploring these topics, this paper articulates arguments, describes and discusses conceptual frameworks and system developments (in the context of three cas…
Community action and planning. Contexts, drivers and outcomes
2014
With trust in top-down government faltering, community-based groups around the world are displaying an ever-greater appetite to take control of their own lives and neighbourhoods. Government, for its part, is keen to embrace the projects and the planning undertaken at this level, attempting to regularise it and use it as a means of reconnecting to citizens and localising democracy. This unique book analyses the contexts, drivers and outcomes of community action and planning in a selection of case studies in the global north: from emergent neighbourhood planning in England to the community-based housing movement in New York, and from active citizenship in the Dutch new towns to associative a…
User-Centered Development of Video Telephony for Servicing Mainly Older Users: Review and Evaluation of an Approach Applied for 10 Years
2006
A research and development (R&D) approach has been applied to video telephony (VT) in northern Finland since 1994 by broad consortia. The focus has been on the considerable involvement of ergonomics within the engineering and implementation of VT. This multidisciplinary participatory ergonomic R&D approach (PERDA) is described briefly, in general and through two cases. The user-centeredness should be discernible in this sociotechnical systemic entity. A consortium—comprising mainly manufacturers, individual and organizational users of technological products, and R&D organizations—serves as a natural context for product development. VT has been considered to have much potential for enhancing…
