Å dele eller ikke dele? : Twitter som kommunikasjonskanal for akuttmottaket ved Sørlandet sykehus
2020
Master's thesis in Social communication (KOM501) Denne oppgaven er en tekstanalyse av akuttmottaket ved SSHF sin Twitterkonto, samt intervjuer med personer som er sentrale i produksjonen og bruken av Twitterkontoen. Bakgrunnen for denne oppgaven er usikkerheten rundt personvern og etikk med tanke på deling av anonymisert helseinformasjon om innkomne pasienter etter ulykker. Denne oppgaven ønsker å svare på hvilke utfordringer og muligheter denne Twitterkontoen skaper. Dette gjøres gjennom en triangulering av metodene tekstanalyse og intervju. Til grunn for oppgaven ligger teorier om digitalisering, sosiale medier, strategisk kommunikasjon, etikk og personvern og tekstanalyse. Tekstanalysen …
Fra pensel til piksel. En multimodal diskursanalyse av nettstedene til to norske kunstmuseer.
2021
Master´s thesis in Social Communication (KOM501) Tema for oppgaven er kunstmuseers utnyttelse av ny medieteknologi på nett. Å tilby museumsopplevelser via egne nettsteder er en ny arena for museene, og en arena i rask utvikling. Denne oppgaven kan sees som et bidrag til økt forståelse for dette nye området .I oppgaven undersøkes hvordan teknologiske og semiotiske ressurser utnyttes på nettstedene til Nasjonalmuseet og Munchmuseet for å gi besøkende en digital museumsopplevelse. Gjennom en pragmatisk multimodal diskursanalyse analyseres ulike nivåer av nettstedene ved hjelp av sosialsemiotisk analyseverktøy og multimodal teori. Oppgavens teoretiske grunnlag består også av teori om digitalise…
Disseminating scientific research: a double-edged sword?
2017
Practitioners rarely have the time or propensity to read scientific research, and scholarly researchers seldom write for non-academic audiences. Nevertheless, both groups would probably agree that researchers could solve many problems faced by practitioners and that research is important to guide practice. This article acknowledges scientists’ failure to communicate successfully with practitioners, and discusses the main differences between academic and practitioner-oriented journals in management and business related disciplines. Author guidelines of the most prominent journals that appeal to both academics and practitioners are reviewed and discussed. A thorough literature review is also …
Tracing discursive processes of shared knowledge construction in a technology-enhanced higher education setting
2013
This study focused on combining both the group- and individual-level analyses in studying a collaborative activity in technology-enhanced interactions in a higher education setting. The aim was to make visible, with empirical examples, the quality of the students' web-based discussions and trace the route for shared understanding. By quantifying various communicative functions, the analysis provided general knowledge on the quality and purpose of the discussion in the group and highlighted the different functional positions each student had within the group. However, only a detailed interpretative analysis of the relationships between specific thematic contents, communicative functions, and…
Creating Individual Journal Rankings Based on a Community Approach
2010
Selecting appropriate publication outlets is crucial to any researcher. Journal rankings can be used to guide the selection, but their usefulness may be limited for particular audiences. In this paper, it is argued that especially young researchers and researchers in interdisciplinary fields can benefit from targeting research efforts to a specific community. This can be facilitated by an individually built journal ranking that exploits a community building perspective and by a more transparent process of use. The approach introduced here is based on an analysis of both traditional journal rankings and behavior of academic communities. As a result, we present a procedure for building and us…
A Framework for Children’s Participatory Practices in Virtual Worlds
1970
In recent years, participation of children in virtual worlds has grown and children are also the largest number of users of virtual worlds (KZero, 2009a). This growth in participation in virtual worlds has brought out discussion about their effects on children’s lives. In this article, we consider opportunities of virtual worlds to engage and educate children about their civic life. The aim of this paper is to establish a framework for participation in virtual worlds and to test the framework by looking at current participatory practices in virtual worlds. In this paper we present a framework for children’s participation in virtual worlds which is based on research review. Our framework see…
Introduction to the SCIROCCO online participatory tool and its evaluation
2019
Abstract This presentation will first introduce the SCIROCCO and SCIROCCO Exchange projects and the Maturity Model developed by the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. Then, a demonstration will be made of the three main functionalities of the SCIROCCO tool: assessing the maturity of healthcare systems, assessing the maturity needs of good practices, twinning and coaching with its two variants. For each piece of functionality, the methodology of using the tool will also be presented. Finally, the two main types of evaluation that were carried out for the SCIROCCO tool, and their results, will be described: Testing the validity and reliability of the SCIROCCO tool. …
A View from the Inside: The Dawning Of De-Westernization of CEE Media and Communication Research?
2015
The Editorial outlines some characteristics of the development of the Central and Eastern European (CEE) media and communication scholarship during the past 25 years. In the majority of CEE countries, the media and communication research was re-established after the collapse of communism. Since then, a critical mass of active scholars has appeared who form an integral part of the larger European academia. A gradual integration of East and West perspectives in media and communication research is taking place along with moving away from the barely West-centred approach, and utilizing the research done by CEE scholars. Certain 'de-westernization' and internationalization of the research in ter…
A geostatistical approach to map near-surface soil moisture through hyperspatial resolution thermal inertia.
2021
Thermal inertia has been applied to map soil water content exploiting remote sensing data in the short and long wave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Over the last years, optical and thermal cameras were sufficiently miniaturized to be loaded onboard of unmanned aerial systems (UASs), which provide unprecedented potentials to derive hyperspatial resolution thermal inertia for soil water content mapping. In this study, we apply a simplification of thermal inertia, the apparent thermal inertia (ATI), over pixels where underlying thermal inertia hypotheses are fulfilled (unshaded bare soil). Then, a kriging algorithm is used to spatialize the ATI to get a soil water content map. The pr…
Formación para el mundo del trabajo desde la resolución de problemas
2015
Nuestra aportación se concreta en una experiencia de aula realizada en Formación Profesional que se inserta en un planteamiento de intervención educativa que mejore el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje desde la resolución de problemas y la implementación de una metodología docente participativa y colaborativa. Se ha llevado a cabo en el contexto de las Escuelas de Artesanos de Valencia (curso 2014-2015); en concreto, en el Ciclo Formativo de Grado Superior “Gestión Comercial y Marketing”. En nuestra práctica docente optamos por potenciar una formación integral que no sólo capacite al alumnado profesionalmente sino que contribuya al mismo tiempo en dotarle de unas competencias personales de s…
