Television continues to be the leading source of political information and its relevance has been recognised at policy level. In addition, television keeps evolving technologically and in how it is experienced by viewers. Nonetheless, the ways researchers have measured audience engagement with televised political events in real-time is often limited to small samples of viewers and is based upon a narrow range of responses. In this paper we look at the audience of televised election debates, and propose a new method to gauge the richness and variety of citizens' real-time responses at scale by capturing nuanced, non-intrusive, simple and measurable audience feedback. We report on a paper prototype experiment, in which we used a set of flashcards to test the method in an actual televised election debate scenario. We demonstrate how the method can improve our understanding of viewer responses to the debaters' performances, to the contents in their arguments, and to the debate as media event. We conclude with design guidelines to implement the method on a mass scale in order to measure audience engagement with televised election debates in distributed contexts through audience feedback web and mobile applications.","PeriodicalId":320659,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Communities and Technologies","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121503825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hybrid communities have emerged as socio-technical platforms capitalizing on this fuzzy border. They support the blend of computer-mediated communications with face-to-face interactions. This intertwined nature of online-offline interactions in hybrid communities pose extra burdens on their members, especially newcomers. Newcomers in the hybrid communities are required to make decisions about in-person meetings with strangers with scarce knowledge and limited commitment to the group. In this work, we explore what influences newcomers' offline participation in the context of Meetup. Following a set of theoretical frameworks, we have identified factors relevant to newcomers' decisions about their first offline event and we have examined the impact of each of those factors through statistical regression models. Our results show that factors contributing to reducing uncertainty and sense of inclusiveness play a key role in newcomers' decision making process about what events to attend offline. Based on our findings, we provide design guidelines for community technology developers to better support newcomers in their decision to start participating offline in hybrid communities.","PeriodicalId":320659,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Communities and Technologies","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124334981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Increasing use of digital and networked technologies in people's everyday lives present opportunities for connecting, communicating, interacting, and caring for one another in new ways, as evidenced in the recent emergence of technologies that are designed to support the post-trauma journey. At the same time, there are distinct shortcomings among the existing technologies in effectively responding to the diverse and changing needs and desires of individuals, including meaningful engagement of trusted others, such as friends and family outside the therapy environment. After examining 83 existing design interventions that provide trauma-related support, this paper identifies six broad themes evident in their approaches: symbolic engagements, creative offerings of comfort and encouragements of self-care, the creative sharing of stories, online communities and agony aunts, the digitisation and re-design of psychology intervention, biometrics and data-driven. It further interrogates related opportunities and challenges to deliberate on how interventions might be designed with and for care at the intersection of communities and technologies, with a focus on engaging trusted others who in various ways and degrees, have a substantial impact on the post-trauma journey beyond therapy.","PeriodicalId":320659,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Communities and Technologies","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129998880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inspired by the rise of an online participatory culture involving music remixing, we conducted a study where we transposed these activities from their informal, online context to a formal, classroom context. Our goal was not to make students proficient music remixers, but instead to explore whether remixing could serve as a tool to engage learners in their formal education and increase their desire to participate in both online and local music communities. Qualitative methods were used to gather data before Activity Theory was applied to evaluate the issues surrounding moving remixing activities between contexts. Our contribution is three-fold: (1) A demonstration of the benefits and challenges around connecting classrooms to local music communities through music remixing activities (2) Remix Portal, an easy to use music remixing and sharing application which can help young people move beyond a position of passive consumer of music towards a position of active contributor (3) The identification of key design criteria for growing the remixing application into a sustainable and social platform.","PeriodicalId":320659,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Communities and Technologies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129706357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rapid and pervasive adoption of mobile technologies had called into question the necessity of continued investment in telecenters; however, telecenters have been credited for serving different needs than private mobile technologies. Users and stakeholders are shaping new ways of access, and telecenters and mobile technologies can benefit from each other to address the issue of underserved communities' access to information. The literature has not yet extensively addressed this topic. The study presented in this paper has the twofold goal to understand (i) how mobile technologies are used by telecenters to enhance their services to the public, and (ii) whether telecenter operators perceive mobile technologies as viable instruments to innovate telecenters and pursue community development goals. Informed by the Theory of Social Representations (SR), the study presents responses to a questionnaire to Brazilian telecenter operators. Results show that telecenter operators have a positive attitude towards adopting mobile technologies to extend their telecenters' services and meet their development goals, especially in the areas of education, knowledge, information and communication.","PeriodicalId":320659,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Communities and Technologies","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127957713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
