Participatory video can be used as a tool to capture community perspectives on issues like rainwater management. It is a process that empowers communities and catalyzes action and change. Local community members are trained to use video cameras and produce films that convey local issues, knowledge, and viewpoints. These films then facilitate discussion within the community and help communicate grassroots perspectives to researchers and decision makers. While participatory video has potential benefits, there are also challenges to consider such as managing expectations, ensuring the sustainability of efforts over the long term, and avoiding the process being hijacked by more powerful actors.

Diffusion Of Innovations
Diffusion of innovation refers to the process by which an innovation is communicated over time among members of a social system. The key elements are the innovation itself, communication channels, time, and the social system. Change agents play an important role in introducing innovations and guiding their adoption through a systematic process involving knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation. Adoption occurs gradually as different members of a social system choose to adopt the innovation at different times.
Pev.Msc Presentation To Mc Ethiopia
Participatory video and most significant change (PV/MSC) is a monitoring and evaluation method that engages project beneficiaries in telling their stories through video. It allows beneficiaries to authentically communicate their perspectives in a compelling format. The process involves: [1] beneficiaries selecting the most significant change stories to film based on agreed indicators; [2] filming and editing the stories; [3] community screenings and analysis of the videos to facilitate discussion and learning. The approach strengthens participation, ownership, and learning among beneficiaries and stakeholders.
2012 Lecture on Community Led Sanitation
The document discusses two community-led sanitation approaches: Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and the Orangi Pilot Project (OPP) in Pakistan. Both approaches define the sanitation problem as a lack of participation, ownership, and capabilities among the poor. CLTS uses "triggering" to encourage behavior change and focuses on natural local leaders to make entire villages open defecation free, with villagers deciding technologies. OPP uses motivational meetings and lane organizations to develop low-cost lane sewers with septic tanks, providing technical support but no subsidies. The lecture debates the sustainability and broader impacts of these approaches.

The document discusses a community radio initiative in Ghana that aims to strengthen local engagement on climate change impacts and adaptation. The initiative partners local radio stations with research networks to build capacity for "action research" on climate change, allowing communities to share their knowledge and needs. Initial results show growing local understanding of climate impacts and issues. Lessons indicate the work requires long-term partnerships and addressing social justice, while complexity remains a challenge. The initiative seeks to better communicate climate knowledge both within and beyond communities through participatory radio.
Innovation diffusion (Everett Rogers)
Rogers' diffusion of innovations theory proposes that an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among the members of a social system. The key elements are the innovation itself, communication channels, time, and the social system. Innovations that are perceived as having greater relative advantage, compatibility, trialability, observability, and less complexity will be adopted more rapidly. Early diffusion research studies investigated the spread of hybrid corn and new drugs. Subsequent studies examined opinion leadership, communication channels, and the five stages of the innovation-decision process: knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation. Criticisms of diffusion research include a pro-innovation bias and issues of equality in diffusion.

Diffusion is the process by which an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among the members of a social system. The rate of adoption is determined by characteristics of the innovation like relative advantage and compatibility, as well as the structure of the social system. Opinion leaders and change agents influence diffusion. Time is required for diffusion as innovations are adopted in categories from innovators to early adopters to the majority and finally laggards.

Participatory Culture
Participatory culture refers to when individuals not only consume media but help produce it as well. New technologies, especially the internet, have lowered barriers to artistic and civic participation by making media production more accessible. This has led to a more collaborative and democratic form of communication where community members feel their contributions matter and they receive informal mentorship from more experienced members. However, ensuring equal access to technologies and balancing individual contributions with professional oversight remain ongoing challenges of participatory culture.
Participatory journalism
This document summarizes a study on participatory journalism practices in media and beyond. The study examined forms of participatory journalism in eight European countries and the US. It analyzed opportunities for audience participation on 16 online newspapers' websites from 2007. Most sites only allowed commenting and content ranking. Exceptions included El Pais and Dnevnik, which allowed more editing. The Guardian used community-building techniques and its Guardian Witness site invited people to share stories through text, video and photos.
Invasion Of Participatory Culture
If you haven’t made the shift from serving members to involving them, consider this your wake-up call — and your roadmap.
Sociologists identify today’s online networked individuals as the participatory class. For many adults, the Internet primarily means the web. For others it means chat, connecting with friends, email, games, movies, social networks, text, video — all of which means they are content producers.
As part of a participatory culture, we expect to create, collaborate, connect, share, and learn interactively. We feel that our contributions matter. We share a social or emotional connection with one another that helps solve problems and develop new solutions. It’s a culture that permeates our personal lives and our workplaces.
Adopting Wiki at UCF
The document summarizes a presentation about implementing wikis at the University of Central Florida (UCF). It discusses social constructivism theory and the diffusion of innovations model as frameworks to understand technology adoption. It also outlines a pilot study where UCF faculty were provided support to use wikis in their courses. Faculty interviews revealed advantages like collaboration, though technical and collaboration issues arose. Advice was to provide training and clear expectations when using wikis.
David gauntlett and media 2.0
This document discusses how online media has changed the study of media from media 1.0 to media 2.0. It outlines David Gauntlett's view that media 2.0 allows for faster, more collaborative creativity and that creativity is linked to a desire for connection. It defines media 1.0 as focusing on finding information, while media 2.0 emphasizes filtering information. It also discusses how new media is transforming culture by shifting from consumers to "prosumers" and giving audiences a more active role.
CM258 - Class 3
This document discusses the rise of participatory culture among youth through their use of new media technologies. It defines participatory culture as having low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement, strong support for sharing creations, and mentorship between experienced and novice members. The document outlines several forms of participation including affiliations, expressions, collaborative problem-solving, and circulations. It argues that access to participatory culture functions as a new form of education, shaping which youth will succeed. While some argue youth learn skills independently through popular culture, the document raises concerns about unequal access, transparency of media influences, and lack of ethics training. It outlines new literacy skills needed to navigate participatory culture and argues these cultures can empower youth through civic engagement

1) The document discusses how publics are constituted around emerging technologies through both formal engagement processes led by sponsors as well as through "emergent publics" that form in response to tangible impacts.
2) It notes that upstream and downstream communication present differing challenges, with upstream being more conceptual and focused on knowledge while downstream must address real-world impacts and opposition.
3) Case studies of wind energy and biomass in Scotland show how emergent publics can make socio-technical networks visible but still mask other publics, with biomass attracting organized opposition over wider global impacts.
Why Participatory Media Now
The document discusses the potential for participatory media like wikis and blogs to bridge the gap between traditional civic education and emerging youth experiences with self-actualizing citizenship online. It argues that teaching media literacy skills can help students engage more effectively in public life by using digital tools to inform themselves, debate issues, and organize collective action. While some resist adding media literacy training to overloaded school curriculums, the document proposes treating it instead as a paradigm shift that can reshape how every subject is taught to reflect modern media's civic role.

Diffusion of innovation theory
1. Diffusion is the process by which an innovation is communicated over time among members of a social system. It involves an innovation, communication channels, time, and a social system.
2. The innovation-decision process includes knowledge of the innovation, forming an attitude, deciding to adopt or reject, implementing the innovation, and confirming the decision.
3. Innovativeness refers to how early an individual adopts innovations compared to others. Adopter categories include innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards.
Diffusion Of Innovation Chapters 1 and 2
The document discusses the key elements and concepts of diffusion of innovations according to Rogers' theory. It defines diffusion as the process by which an innovation is communicated over time through certain channels among members of a social system. The four main elements of diffusion are innovations, communication channels, time, and social systems. It also discusses Rogers' innovation-decision process and the attributes of innovations.

Presented at PH International's Social Media for Social Change conference in Tbilisi, Georgia. April 2010.
Types of innovation decisions, consequences of innovation-decisions
This document discusses three types of innovation decisions: operational, collective, and authority. It also outlines the desirable and undesirable, direct and indirect consequences of innovation decisions. The decision making process involves observing a problem, analyzing it, deciding on courses of action, choosing one, and accepting the consequences. The innovation decision process moves from knowledge to persuasion to decision to implementation to confirmation as an individual adopts a new idea. Perceived attributes like relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability influence an individual's decision. Social, personal, and situational factors also impact the decision making process.
Diffusion of innovation ppt
Diffusion is the process by which an innovation spreads through a social system over time through communication channels. It involves spreading new ideas and insights, such as what qualities make an innovation spread, the importance of peer networks, and understanding different user needs. Rogers developed the diffusion of innovation theory in 1962 to explain how, why, and at what rate new ideas and technologies spread through cultures. The theory describes the process of adoption where individuals first learn of an innovation, then form an opinion, make a decision, implement the innovation, and seek reinforcement. There are five stages of adoption - knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation.
Adopter categories
This document discusses the five categories of adopters in the diffusion of innovations theory: innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards. It provides characteristics and percentages of the population for each category. Innovators make up 2.5% and are venturesome, willing to take risks on new ideas. Early adopters at 13.5% are respected leaders who adopt new ideas just before the average person. The early majority at 34% adopt after seeing neighbors adopt. The late majority, also 34%, adopt after the average person and social pressures increase. Laggards are the last 16% to adopt, very traditional, and skeptical of change.
Connecting Global and Local: Using Open Data to Convey Climate Change Risks,...
This document discusses using open data to communicate climate change risks and opportunities for mitigation and adaptation. It notes that while climate change requires global action, people need to feel connected to and motivated by the issue. Interactive visualizations using open data have potential to empower users to understand climate risks relevant to their lives. Further research is needed on how open knowledge can support renewable energy deployment and international development. While useful, data visualizations also need to avoid false impressions and engage people without existing interest in climate change.
Diffusion of Innovations Chapters 1-2
The document discusses key concepts from Everett Rogers' book Diffusion of Innovations including:
1) Diffusion is the process by which an innovation is communicated over time through certain channels among members of a social system. The main elements are the innovation, communication channels, time, and the social system.
2) Innovations have perceived attributes like relative advantage and complexity that influence their rate of adoption. Communication channels and opinion leaders also impact diffusion.
3) Diffusion research traditions developed across various fields and focused on topics like the rate of adoption, innovativeness, and consequences of innovations.
Diffusion of innovations theory
The document outlines Diffusion of Innovations Theory, which examines how new ideas, products, or practices spread through cultures over time. It discusses how innovation occurs in four stages: invention, communication through social networks, the passage of time, and consequences. Opinion leaders influence adoption within these networks. Five categories of adopters are identified based on their willingness to adopt innovations early or later. Diffusion research focuses on understanding the characteristics of innovations, how individuals decide to adopt, individual characteristics, consequences of adoption, and communication channels used in the process.

Motivation of Citizen Scientists
This document discusses understanding and managing the motivations, interests, and needs of citizen scientists to ensure successful citizen science projects. It notes that motivations are diverse and can change over time. Projects should offer flexible roles and tasks tailored to different motivations, skills, circumstances, and levels of desired participation. Effective communication, recognition, rewards, and ensuring participant needs are met are important for participant retention and sustained involvement. Monitoring motivations and impacts on participants can help projects refine their approaches over time.

The document discusses social reporting as a way to nurture adoption of social software in research organizations. Social reporting allows for collective, live reporting from events using tools like blogs, photos, videos and wikis. It encourages participation and brings more voices into discussions. The document advocates adopting social reporting practices to foster skills like digital literacy, transliteracy and social learning. Challenges include organizational readiness and culture, but benefits include lower adoption barriers and richer learning experiences if social reporting is integrated into events.

I was honored to be the Keynote speaker at the 2020 Institute of Social Change, an annual week-long focus on public scholarship and social change, organized by the Rackham Graduate School. Although we switched to an online format because of COVID-19, I liked how that allowed us to address different themes and try more than one format. The first hour was much like a normal keynote -- my talk, titled "Rethinking both “Public” and “Scholarship” in “Public Scholarship: (Ongoing) Lessons from the Detroit Water Stories Project" for 40 minutes and then 20 minutes of Q&A. For the second hour (after an hour-long lunch break), I proposed a more conversational format, without any slides, and we talked about a gadzillion topics -- academic and nonacademic career arcs, interdisciplinary research, specific tools and practices for research translation, how to be a good partner to grassroots organizations, the kind of support universities need to provide for effective public scholarship, and so on. I was grateful for the opportunity to reflect on our journey so far, and how we can further evolve to best assist the #WaterWarriors who are on the frontlines of this ongoing crisis. Thank you to all my wonderful colleagues, students, and community guides/partners/participants who I am privileged to work with.

How Social Media may advance Water Management
Water is a scarce resource and it is vital for all. However, we are faced with enormous challenges in preserving water as a resource and of good quality. The stakeholders are many and very diverse making Water Management very challenging. The presentation explores how social media may reach the diverse stakeholder audiences based on the experiences from an EU-funded project STEP-WISE. XPRO Consulting was responsible for the Communication and Dissemination activities of the two-year project.
Social media may advance water management
Internet and its social media have connected people, communicated ideas, made people aware of issues, events and advancement. You might think that social media are for teenagers and youngsters, but undoubtedly, they bring options in climate change and water issue awareness as well as solution possibilities among the professionals. However, do they really build communities of practice, help knowledge management and transfer and can they truly improve water management? Can they help bridge the communication gap between research, policy and industry? How do they facilitate communication to non-scientists and the wider public?Internet and its social media have connected people, communicated ideas, made people aware of issues, events and advancement.

The presentation will discuss the possibilities and glitches based on the presenters’ experience gathered from two EU-funded projects and the WISE-RTD Water Knowledge Portal as well as other social media. The presenter hopes to highlight social media’s upsides and downsides and how they can provide a strong communication channel to scientists, policy makers and implementers, water professionals and the public.

Presentacion workshop ecrea 2011
The document discusses crowdsourcing and crowdfunding in audiovisual content production. It begins by introducing emerging creative practices involving individuals and groups in media production. It then discusses two main approaches: crowdsourcing, which involves outsourcing tasks to undefined groups, and crowdfunding, which involves collective cooperation and pooling of money. While crowdsourcing and crowdfunding are often presented as having clear divisions between creative professionals and users, the document argues they actually involve more complex participation and organizational practices, with varying motivations and roles.

Skills for knowledge in decision-making: The complexity puzzle
Presentation by Eeva Hellström.
Evidence-informed Workshop (OECD, 9-10 April 2018)
Public Engagement with Research - Music
This document discusses public engagement with research. It provides definitions of public engagement from various organizations that emphasize it as a two-way process involving interaction and listening to generate mutual benefit. Impact is defined as an effect, change or benefit beyond academia. The document then poses four key questions to consider before engaging in public engagement: who the engagement is with, how it will be conducted, how success will be defined, and why the engagement is important. It provides advice on answering each question and capturing evidence of impact. The overall message is that public engagement should be a thoughtful, mutually beneficial process between researchers and the public.
Co investigation slideshow
The document describes a dialogical learning community called the Adult Learning Project (ALP) Co-Investigation. It involves community members investigating issues in their local area through a three step process: 1) gathering information to see and understand key issues, 2) analyzing the power structures and contradictions underlying the issues, and 3) acting to overcome challenges and enact change. The goal is to empower community members to determine their own lives and situations through education, discussion, and collective action on prioritized themes. Examples of past ALP projects are provided to illustrate the method.
"The Conservation Commons: Lessons and aAnalysis aAdapted from other sectors ...
This document summarizes a presentation given at the 2008 World Conservation Congress on the Conservation Commons. It discusses how knowledge management practices can be adapted from other sectors to help address challenges in knowledge sharing within the conservation field. Specifically, it examines lessons from different interpretations of intellectual property rights and how cultural and organizational changes are needed at the individual, professional, and institutional levels to promote greater sharing of conservation knowledge as a public good.
Pe important topics
This document provides an introduction to public engagement for researchers. It discusses why researchers may want to engage the public, including to increase impact, funding and profile. It also covers who researchers could engage with, such as different interest groups, and how engagement could occur through various formats like lectures, online activities and museums. The document emphasizes finding common ground between researchers' goals and public interests to maximize engagement and capture its impact.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.Generating privacy-protected synthetic data using Secludy and Milvus
During this demo, the founders of Secludy will demonstrate how their system utilizes Milvus to store and manipulate embeddings for generating privacy-protected synthetic data. Their approach not only maintains the confidentiality of the original data but also enhances the utility and scalability of LLMs under privacy constraints. Attendees, including machine learning engineers, data scientists, and data managers, will witness first-hand how Secludy's integration with Milvus empowers organizations to harness the power of LLMs securely and efficiently.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
