Why is this important to us?
Deﬁning success
If we are to deﬁne a ﬁeld of Civic Media, we must be
able to deﬁne when interventions succeed
Empirically driving design toward what matters
Civic media’s deep connection to media and
technology makes our research accountable for future
design, and even theories must be tested
Communicating results and value to funders
They are also a stakeholder with an explicit goal of
social impact; and right now, we are responsible for
shaping how they conceive of impact

Why is it so hard?
Research Design
Finding an appropriate question and methodology is a
conversation and compromise among many
stakeholders
Instrumentation
Answering the questions that really matter can
demand approaches and tools that don’t currently exist
Project Implementation
Research can complicate a project’s deployment or
even its primary mission

February 2014 update: Since publishing our original report in December, 2013, we've received dozens of emails from peers in the budding civic tech community proposing additions. On Feb. 26, we released an updated version of the civic tech investment analysis, which includes an additional 34 companies and $265 million of investment. Find out more at http://kng.ht/1cPi3Ar. Investments by private capital funders and foundations in technology that spurs citizen engagement, improves cities and makes governments more effective is growing significantly, with more than $430 million going to the field between January 2011 and May 2013, according to a major report released today by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The first report of its kind, “The Emergence of Civic Tech: Investments in a Growing Field,” provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of private capital and foundation investments in civic technology. It aims to help organizations and investors better understand civic tech funding, so that they can strengthen their work and help shape the field. The analysis applies a new approach to research and advances the use of data in the social sector; it showcases an interactive data visualization map that allows users to explore investments across multiple areas of civic tech.

This document provides an overview of new media and how it can be used to respond to public health issues like Hepatitis. It defines new media as tools like blogs, social media, and mobile applications that allow users to connect, create, collaborate and engage online. The document outlines learning objectives around defining new media, assessing its benefits and limitations, and describing the steps to create a new media strategy. It then provides examples of how various new media tools have been used to address HIV and discusses best practices for planning, implementing, and evaluating a new media campaign.

This document discusses marketing research methods beyond traditional approaches. It begins by reviewing quantitative research methods beyond surveys, including transactional data, metered measures, web metrics, social media, and passive data. It then reviews qualitative research methods beyond focus groups, such as depth interviews, diaries, ethnographies, online discussions, and semiotics. The document aims to illustrate the range of quantitative and qualitative research tools available to researchers.

Social media analytics tools can help governments in three key ways: 1. They can measure and monitor public sentiment and opinion in real-time through analysis of social media posts to understand trends. 2. They can help with proactive crisis management by tracking topics like how terrorists communicate and what they discuss. 3. They provide indicators on how effective terrorist messaging is by analyzing how people interact with and discuss those groups.

It provides examples of metrics to track, such as website traffic, share of voice, and level of engagement. Tools are presented for monitoring social media presence, analyzing blogs and clicks/shares, and tracking how content ranks. A case study demonstrates how the journal Clinical Chemistry has implemented social media and analyzes the results.

Social Intelligence : structurez l'instructurable

Ipsos France

This document discusses how social media data can provide insights when analyzed alongside traditional research methods. It notes that while social data provides a wealth of real-time opinions and discussions, it only presents a partial picture that requires context. Combining social data with survey data, transaction data, and other sources through social listening and analytics can provide deeper understandings of customer experiences, brand perceptions, and market trends in a way that enhances and complements primary research. Predictive analytics of social data can work in some categories, but overall social intelligence is best used to inform, not replace, other research techniques through a multidimensional approach.

The document discusses how news media are increasingly using analytics and audience data to help navigate the competitive battle for attention. It describes how leading organizations are developing distinct forms of "editorial analytics" tailored to their specific goals and contexts. These analytics inform both short-term decisions and longer-term strategy. While globally-focused US and UK news outlets remain ahead, market leaders in other countries are also developing their own approaches to analytics.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP

RAHUL

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade. The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization, population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different 'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the land. The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover. Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface, providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and diverse human activities. Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems 9 Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can occur natural.
