Doing Mediaptation: Learning from the Protest Camp discusses using media for social change and adapting media practices and social change objectives. It emphasizes developing critical media literacy through a dual adaptation approach where media and objectives are adapted to each other. This involves co-opting different roles like teacher/student and managing mainstream media at protest camps to create their own frames of reference. True media literacy requires understanding power dynamics and one's own role through activities like parody and discussion of how change happens. Future research should untangle definitions of civic action from media literacy objectives and map them to best practices that develop "civic capability".
Guerrero, manuel public-connection-civic-deliberation-salzburg-2015
This document summarizes the findings of a 2003-2006 study on media consumption and public engagement. The study was replicated across Europe, the Americas, and New Zealand. It used both quantitative (surveys) and qualitative (interviews, diaries) methods to examine how people understand and engage with public issues through their media diets. Key findings included that digital media do not replace traditional sources; social media consumption does not imply online deliberation; and communicative deliberation does not necessarily lead to political engagement. The study also found that traditional models in political science do not fully capture new forms of participation emerging online.
Comes as Advertised?: Advertising's Negative Effects On Society
Advertising has many negative effects on society. It bombards people with messages through various media platforms on a daily basis. Exposure to advertising is linked to increased rates of issues like low self-esteem, depression, eating disorders, and childhood obesity. It also negatively influences behaviors like underage drinking, problem gambling, and overspending. Further, children under 8 do not understand the persuasive intent of ads and ads aimed at kids primarily promote unhealthy products. One must think critically about the advertisements they encounter.
Melki, Jad - Myths and tensions of digital age
The document discusses several myths and tensions regarding digital media access, including the illusion of diversity from global internet access. While information can flow globally, people tend to pay attention only to what they care about and those similar to them, so their attention remains local and tribal. The document also addresses issues like privacy threats from oversharing and data tracking, the lack of neutrality in search engines and their algorithms, and the need to rewire digital spaces to enhance true diversity.

Using Social Media to Tell your Farm Story and Build Your Business
This document discusses using social media to tell a farm's story and build its business. It emphasizes that stories are important for connecting with customers and that photos and videos are especially effective forms of storytelling on social media. The document provides examples of farms that successfully use their website and social media to share their story and highlights statistics on how visual content performs better than text posts. It concludes by noting that story is just one aspect of social media use and that the goal should be to engage customers.
YOUmedia Survey ALA 2013
The YOUmedia program began in 2006 as a collaboration between the Chicago Public Library and researchers studying how digital technologies influence learning in youth. Led by researcher Mimi Ito, the program is based on a "connected learning" approach where teens can explore interests through peer and mentor support. At the YOUmedia space in the Harold Washington Library, 350-500 teens visit weekly to engage in activities like making, gaming, and creative writing with support from staff. Studies found the program helped teens improve skills, awareness of opportunities, and relationships with adults.
Camila Draft Myth Panel Ii
The document discusses challenges to affirmative action policies and strategies to reframe the debate. It notes that affirmative action is often mischaracterized and discusses research showing how it is typically framed in media as benefiting blacks rather than other people of color. It then outlines 13 common myths about affirmative action and discusses efforts like a radio show and website to disseminate research debunking these myths and sharing untold stories about how affirmative action has helped overcome racial barriers.

041716 University Conference CATA Engages Student Market
CATA provides transportation services for Michigan State University through various bus routes. CATA aims to engage MSU students through fun and useful marketing campaigns that represent student interests. One campaign, "Where's CATA-Man?", featured a superhero at campus locations to promote CATA's services.

CATA analyzes engagement metrics for their social media campaigns and also partners with student groups and local businesses to reach students.
Understanding social media
The document discusses understanding social media from a social perspective. It explores social media through three lenses: as a social capital resource, as social theater where people take on different roles, and how organizations can leverage both of these aspects. Key points discussed are how social networks provide information and connections that create social capital, the potential for embarrassment if audience segregation breaks down in social media theater, and case studies of why women use Facebook.
The Power of Media and Information
The power in media comes with challenges. As a consumer of information, we must understand which of the information we get are true and correct.
Shut it down or shape it up? The state of Vietnamese digital media in 2021
The document discusses the state of digital media in Vietnam in 2021. It notes tensions between the Vietnamese government and Facebook as the government seeks to regulate content on platforms. Digital media investment has grown significantly in recent years, but Vietnam ranks low on press freedom indices. Popular social media platforms in Vietnam include Facebook, YouTube, and Zalo, but government restrictions on political commentary are increasing. The document debates whether the government's approach to social media should be to shut platforms down or shape the content allowed on them.

Teen usage of social media has increased dramatically, with 72% using YouTube and 68% using Instagram. This increased usage has negatively impacted teen mental health, with 1 in 4 reporting poor mental health, distress, suicidal thoughts, or unmet mental health needs. Social media shapes teens' conceptions of beauty and alters how they think and interact by promoting unrealistic representations and social norms. It can also contribute to lack of independent thinking, peer pressure, cyberbullying, eating disorders, and depression in vulnerable teens. To help prevent these issues, parents can limit social media use, monitor the content teens engage with, and regularly discuss their mental well-being.

Effect of media on youth
This document discusses the effects of media on Pakistani youth and society. It outlines the objectives to raise awareness about how media influences values and culture.

It concluded media should encourage and motivate youth towards country development by portraying positive role models and helping them recognize external influences.

Call for Articles, A Safe Refuge? Minorities and the State in Iranian Cybersp...Encyclopaedia Iranica
The Iranian state has consistently restricted spaces for minorities to express their identities, especially where such identities are construed as representing a threat to the religious, political and sexual orthodoxies promulgated by the clerical establishment. As a result, many members of assorted Iranian minority groups have taken to cyberspace to build communities, articulate self- and group-identities, organise to overcome discriminatory practices, and connect with their allies from across national borders and around the world.
With the election of Hassan Rouhani to the presidency there have been renewed hopes for an improvement in the position of Iran’s minorities, though tangible improvements have been slow to materialise. Whilst the state is slow to take steps that would improve the position of Iran’s minorities, it is ultimately down to these communities to organise and find solutions to their myriad concerns.
This special issue of CyberOrient invites contributors to explore how Iranian minority groups have embraced technology to overcome state marginalization, strengthen communities, and push back against entrenched societal prejudices. Topics might include the role of online networks in community formation; the impact of state filtering programmes upon minorities; the effectiveness of phone apps in providing communities with support and education; the extent of access to communications technology by minority communities; and the capacity for diaspora organisations and communities to affect the position of Iranian minorities.
Articles should be submitted directly to Bronwen Robertson (bronwen@smallmedia.org.uk), James Marchant (james@smallmedia.org.uk), and Vit Sisler (vit.sisler@ff.cuni.cz). Articles should be between 6,000 and 8,000 words (including references), and follow the AAA style in referencing and citations. Upon acceptance, articles will be published online with free access in Fall 2015.Social Media for Journalists

Journalism & the New Media Literacies 101608
Journalism is in a paradigm shift. More than any generation to come before them, today’s young people are participating in the creation and sharing of culture with the immediacy and connectedness that a digitally networked world provides. In many cases, these young adults are actively involved in what we are calling participatory cultures; a participatory culture shifts the focus of literacy from one of individual expression to one of community involvement.
