This document summarizes a research project examining public service announcements produced by the BBC World Service Trust in Ethiopia from 2006-2007. The project aimed to promote sexual health among Ethiopian youth using radio programs. The research investigated production methods and the application of Western advertising techniques in a developing country context. Interviews were conducted with project staff and focus groups discussed reactions to different radio spots. The responses suggested the messages were generally clear but some content may have been seen as offensive. Overall reception of the radio programs was mixed due to the politicized environment and distrust of state-run radio.
Presentation On Participation, Remediation, Bricolage Considering Principal...sgie6824
The document discusses key concepts in digital culture including participation, remediation, and bricolage. It outlines paradigm shifts from print to online media, including moving from a linear, hierarchical structure to multivocal networks. Digital culture involves the values and practices users create online and offline. The document also discusses Jean Baudrillard's three types of simulacra and how culture is now focused on recombining past media forms. Participation involves users becoming active in meaning making. Remediation describes the constant remixing of older and newer media forms. Bricolage legitimizes hybridity and mixture to create new meanings from borrowing and plagiarism.
Creating conditions for meaningful research participationKelly Ann McKercher
In the customer experience world, we often talk about understanding and strengthening the experience customers have with our products and services.
What about the research experience?
Understanding what constitutes meaningful and worthwhile research experiences allows us to hold ourselves and our research partners accountable. It’s up to us to empathise with, understand and create the relevant conditions for participants to contribute in the ways meaningful for them.
Visualising the city - towards an open solutionDave Harte
The document discusses visualizing city development projects in Birmingham to engage the public using digital tools and make the city an "open digital city".
