Mobile communication differs from other forms of mediated communication in terms of connectedness, dynamics, omnipresence, and interactivity. Consequently, it can be difficult for scholars to investigate mobile communication using traditional research methods. The main goal of this article is to show how the mobile experience sampling method (MESM), in combination with data donations, can be useful for addressing the challenges of mobile communication research. We explicate the design using an experience-sampling study that was conducted on mobile campaigning during the Dutch 2021 national election. Using this case, we discuss how MESM can be extended and combined with other data sources, such as tracking data, GPS, and sensory data, to address the challenges of mobile communication effects research and facilitate future studies.

Learning media is one of the important components in the process of implementing learning, especially during the current pandemic. But in reality there are still few teachers who use media in the learning process, causing student learning outcomes to decline. Interactive media which is one of the media that can be used to attract students' attention by combining systems ranging from text, images, videos, and audio/sound can provide new experiences for students in learning. This study aims to determine student learning outcomes after using android-based interactive learning media in social science subjects. The population group consisted of 70 students from several schools in Cluster 2, Cipinang Muara Village. Then samples were taken using the Slovin formula to get 60 samples of fourth grade students. This study uses experimental research methods and uses a single group pre test - post test. The collected data were analyzed through t test. The results showed that android-based interactive media had a positive effect on student learning outcomes. Students experienced a significant increase in learning outcomes by using this media. In addition, students feel more interested and easier to understand the material by using this application.

Der Artikel fragt nach einer gegenstandsadäquaten Methode der qualitativen Untersuchung von Apps und stellt dazu eine für die Analyse von Subjektivierung sensibilisierte Variante der Walkthrough-Methode vor. Apps werden dabei als multimediale Mikrodispositive verstanden, die eine Antwort auf einen gesellschaftlichen Notstand (eine urgence im Sinne Foucaults) darstellen und sich innerhalb eines Makrodispositivs historisch gewachsener Machtverhältnisse bewegen. Die Herausforderung der Methode besteht darin, eine Verbindung zwischen enaktiver Feinanalyse des Interfaces (Zooming In) und einer damit verbundenen gesellschaftlichen Makroperspektive (Zooming Out) greifbar zu machen. Am Beispiel der Resilienz-App 'SuperBetter' wird diese Methode materialiter demonstriert. In asking for a suitable method for the qualitative analysis of mobile apps, this paper presents a variation of the walkthrough method sensitized for the analysis of subjectivation. In doing so, apps are understood as multimodal micro-dispositifs that answer a societal urgency (in the sense of Foucault) and unfold within the macro-dispositif of power relations in a particular historical moment. The crucial challenge of the method is to link the detailed enactive analysis of an app's interface (zooming in) with a related societal macro-perspective (zooming-out). The method is demonstrated materialiter using the example of the resilience-app 'SuperBetter'.

SUMMARY ABSTRACT Community consultation (CC) is a requirement for exception from informed consent (EFIC) research. This article explores the issue of how representative such consultations can and should be, with particular reference to the use of media-based activities. Interactive, media-based CC strategies are gaining traction, because they have much greater reach than traditional methods, but the increasing use of such methods has also led to calls to ensure that those contacted are representative of the community at risk. However, this is more complex than at first apparent. This article examines the question of how the "trauma community" should be defined, and what characteristics might be used to assess whether a sample of this community is representative. It also considers what data are actually available in order to satisfy such requirements.

Jakarta has 62 well-maintained museums but most are still conventional in the way that they mostly display objects or collections with accompanying written information and interactive media is still very limited.[1] In Indonesia, museum curators and managers need to be more creative in presenting objects and information to increase the number of visitors [2].The difficulty of luring visitors to museums has even became a national issue and problem:[1] the Indonesian government considers it as a matter that needs to be addressed. [3, 4] In 2010, the Association of Museums in Indonesia (AMI) and the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy declared it the Year of Visiting the Museum [5] as part of the National Movement to Love Museums, which lasted until 2014 [1]. The strategic efforts from the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy were then followed up with the introduction of national programs such as Revitalizing Indonesian Museum [5]. Museums should be a place to enhance the learning experience, sharing knowledge, as well as a place to study and conduct research [5]. Here, the museum is required not only as a means of public learning, but must also be able to support the development of study centers in universities [5]. Therefore, adding interactive media using Augmented Reality to Indonesian museums will increase the interest in learning about the local culture and heritage of Indonesia among the Indonesian population, especially students.

No presente artigo, nos propomos a apresentar uma abordagem analítica de videogames contemporâneos que leve em conta sua dimensão prática, compreendendo-os como objetos de linguagem posta em uso enquanto práxis enunciativa. Por ser uma mídia interativa, o videogame implica a atitude responsiva do jogador, instaurando ainda uma práxis interpretativa, localizada em uma estrutura prática complexa, que parte da enunciação e da destinação de tarefas a serem cumpridas, o seu cumprimento e a avaliação da performance, de maneira recursiva e indefinida, tendo em vista o percurso de treinamento do jogador e a oferta de segundas chances. Para apresentar essa estrutura, recorremos à semiótica discursiva nos desdobramentos propostos por Jacques Fontanille, autor expoente da área que trata das interface da teoria com a antropologia, a sociologia e a fenomenologia a fim de contribuir para um semiótica da cultura.

One of the learning methods used to overcome these problems is to create interactive learning media in mathematics subjects. This learning media starts with a needs analysis process that will be used in making flash-based interactive learning media and making concepts or designs according to the results of the analysis. The results to be achieved in making interactive learning media on mathematics subjects are that students can understand the material and increase student interest in learning, so that the teaching and learning process becomes more effective

This paper examines the potential countertactics of contemporary interactive media art to interrogate the data-mining practices that encode the everyday and exploit user data in the big data economy. It argues that noise is the "other" of information, a way to counter the operation of turning the world into data commodities. Through a Brechtian methodology informed by philosophy and critical theories of media and technology, the paper suggests that amplifying the "noise" of the digital media assemblages deviates from their everyday normative functions and estranges our relationship to them, inviting critical ways of understanding, relating to, and engaging these ubiquitous systems. All three noted artworks destabilize the protocols of data-mining to examine data politics. Specifically, the paper looks at three different tactics that amplify the "noise" of digital culture in different ways: reversing roles, disconnecting, and proposing viable alternatives.

Concepts of multisensory user experience and accessibility are presented as an introduction to the topic.The paper builds on the findings of a preliminary user study that was conducted in a joint multi-national and cross-industrial project that was externally funded. In the study, users’ experiences of an accessible means of transport, an elevator prototype with an interactive media surface, were explored. The study comprised a thinking aloud task and a design game.The demonstrated colours, lights and their movements created various kinds of associations among the participating users. The participants also ideated about the product’s alternative applications, some of which concerned accessibility, while others extended beyond it.The findings show that adding experiential product qualities enhances the user experience in terms of various associations and applications that extend beyond accessibility and the original use.

Purpose This study isolates the effect of immersion on players’ learning in a virtual reality (VR)-based game about cellular biology by comparing two versions of the game with the same level of interactivityand different levels of immersion. The authors identify immersion and additional interactivity as two key affordances of VR as a learning tool. A number of research studies compare VR with two-dimensional or minimally interactive media; this study focuses on the effect of immersion as a result of the head mounted display (HMD). Design/methodology/approach In the game, players diagnose a cell by exploring a virtual cell and search for clues that indicate one of five possible types of cystic fibrosis. Fifty-one adults completed all aspects of the study. Players took pre and post assessments and drew pictures of cells and translation before and after the game. Players were randomly assigned to play the game with the HMD (stereoscopic view) or without the headset (non-stereoscopic view). Players were interviewed about their drawings and experiences at the end of the session. Findings Players in both groups improved in their knowledge of the cell environment and the process of translation. Players who experienced the immersive stereoscopic view had a more positive learning effect in the content assessment, and stronger improvement in their mental models of the process of translation between pre- and post-drawings compared to players who played the two-dimensional game. Originality/value This study suggests that immersion alone has a positive effect on conceptual understanding, especially in helping learners understand spatial environments and processes. These findings set the stage for a new wave of research on learning in immersive environments; research that moves beyond determining whether immersive media correlate with more learning, toward a focus on the types of learning outcomes that are best supported by immersive media.

In recent years, children are immersed in both traditional and new forms of digital media around the globe. Screen time is now embedded in the daily lives of young children beginning from infancy. Pre-schoolers exposed to screen and interactive media may benefit in many ways but excessive and inappropriate screen exposure could potentially lead to several health and developmental risks. Excess screen time in early childhood has found to negatively impact cognitive, language, literacy and socio-emotional development. Despite challenges of screen media parenting practices and those posed by lockdown (work from home, online schooling) during COVID-19 pandemic, parents hold the key to navigate these challenges by serving as role models to ensure positive developmental outcomes in their children.
