Las notificaciones Push son un recurso de los medios de comunicación españoles en la actualidad. Su uso surge de las aplicaciones móviles que tienen las cabeceras en Google Play y App Store, los dos grandes markets de aplicaciones occidentales. Estas aplicaciones, de programación nativa, permiten el envío de titulares cortos a los usuarios de dispositivos móviles (smartphones y tabletas digitales), sobre la pantalla del escritorio de su terminal móvil. Este estudio analiza, durante un periodo de tiempo que abarca más de tres semanas en plena pandemia de la COVID-19, las tipologías y temáticas de los titulares enviados relacionados con esta dramática situación, su orientación editorial y la manera en la que abordaron las redacciones la información enviada a los lectores por este canal comunicativo de última generación. Los resultados muestran determinados sesgos de envío coincidentes en las diez aplicaciones analizadas y, a su vez, divergencias en los planteamientos editoriales de los diferentes medios. Dados los pocos estudios realizados de esta índole, se considera necesario observar los criterios utilizados para informar a los lectores por estos envíos que, a modo de teletipo (titular breve y preciso, con caracteres limitados), son transmitidos de forma instantánea a los usuarios., Push notifications are a resource of the Spanish media today. Its use arises from the mobile applications that have the headers in Google Play and AppStore, the two great "markets" of Western applications. These applications, of native programming, allow the sending of short headlines to the users of mobile devices (Smartphones and digital tablets), on the desktop screen of their mobile terminal, if the user has downloaded the application of the medium and has given consent. This study analyzes, over a period that covers more than three weeks during the COVID-19 pandemic, the typologies and themes of the headlines sent related to this dramatic situation, their topic, and the way in which the newsrooms approached the information sent to readers through this state-of-the-art communication channel. The results determine certain coincident submission biases in the ten applications analyzed and, in turn, divergences in the editorial approaches of the different media. Given the few studies of this nature carried out, it is considered necessary to observe the criteria used to inform readers about these shipments that, as a teletype (short and accurate headline, with limited characters), instantly informs users., Depto. de Periodismo y Nuevos Medios, Fac. de Ciencias de la Información, TRUE, pub

A través del presente Trabajo de Fin de Grado pretendemos crear un canal de YouTube y abrir perfiles en las redes sociales Instagram y TikTok, en los que creemos contenido adaptado a cada formato de cada red social que ayude a estudiantes que vayan a irse de Erasmus o a estudiar a otro país a conocer su destino y todas las recomendaciones, consejos e información que darían personas que ya han vivido o están viviendo esa experiencia. Trataremos de hacer uso de todos los conocimientos adquiridos durante la carrera de Periodismo en la Universidad de Valladolid y prácticas curriculares en televisión, así como lo aprendido por cuenta propia, para plasmarlo en un proyecto que está cerca de cumplir dos años. Hemos viajado por varios países y ciudades de Europa, contactando y entrevistando a estudiantes españoles que vivieran allí, para preguntarles por aspectos como el alojamiento, el idioma, la universidad, el clima, el ocio, etc., así como sus recomendaciones y consejos. Después de realizar todas estas grabaciones, hemos editado y montado todas las entrevistas, creado adaptaciones a redes sociales y compartido en ellas el contenido, siguiendo en todo momento una estrategia de comunicación. En este trabajo queda reflejado todo este proceso desde su inicio en 2021, las bases para empezarlo, los objetivos, plan de trabajo, identidad corporativa, dificultades y todo paso a paso hasta su lanzamiento, así como detalles sobre la buena acogida que ha tenido en el público. Este trabajo es un proyecto vivo, que nació hace dos años pero que hace poco que ha visto la luz, y que irá evolucionando y mejorando con el tiempo para ir adaptándose a las necesidades del público y ofreciendo cada vez un mejor contenido., Through this Final Degree Project we pretend to create a YouTube channel and open profiles on the social networks Instagram and TikTok, in which we create content adapted to each format of each social network that helps students who are going to go on Erasmus or to study another country to know its destination and all the recommendations, advice and information that people who have already lived or are living that experience would give. We will try to make use of all the knowledge acquired during the Journalism degree at the University of Valladolid and curricular practices on television, as well as what we learned on our own, to translate it into a project that is close to completing two years. We have traveled through several countries and cities in Europe, contacting and interviewing Spanish students who lived there, to ask them about aspects such as accommodation, language, university, climate, leisure, etc., as well as their recommendations and advices. After making all these recordings, we have edited and assembled all the interviews, created adaptations to social networks and shared the content on them, following a communication strategy at all times. This work reflects this entire process from its beginning in 2021, the bases to start it, the objectives, work plan, corporate identity, difficulties and everything step by step until its launch, as well as details about the good reception it has had in the public. This work is a living project, which was born two years ago but has recently seen the light of day, and which will evolve and improve over time to adapt to the needs of the public and offer increasingly better content., Grado en Periodismo

Las alertas noticiosas en los móviles no solo representan vehículos para distribuir contenido o aumentar el tráfico en las aplicaciones y en las páginas web, sino también micronarrativas periodísticas o una forma única de storytelling (contar historias). Este estudio explora cómo las notificaciones contribuyen al relato noticioso mediante el periodismo móvil. En particular, examina el lenguaje escrito-visual y las rutinas de producción de las alertas noticiosas en Puerto Rico. Mediante un análisis de contenido y entrevistas a los productores de las notificaciones, la investigación identificó que la mayoría de las alertas comunicaron, en tercera persona gramatical, datos de interés periodístico siguiendo el estilo informativo. Privilegiaron el texto con fotos sobre otros elementos mediáticos. Aunque la mayor parte exhibió vocabulario sencillo y conciso, estas carecieron de claridad y precisión. Los periodistas reconocieron que no cuentan con guías estandarizadas para la producción de las notificaciones. La investigación apunta a que las alertas contribuyen al relato periodístico, pero que los medios no han potenciado sus posibilidades escritas ni multimedia., Les alertes de notícies als mòbils no sols representen vehicles per distribuir contingut o augmentar el trànsit a les aplicacions i a les pàgines web, sinó també micronarratives periodístiques o una forma única de storytelling. Aquest estudi explora com les notificacions contribueixen a realitzar el relat noticiable mitjançant el periodisme mòbil. En particular, examina el llenguatge escrit-visual i les rutines de producció de les alertes de notícies a Puerto Rico. Mitjançant una anàlisi de contingut i entrevistes als productors de les notificacions, la recerca va identificar que la majoria de les alertes van comunicar, en tercera persona gramatical, dades d'interès periodístic seguint l'estil informatiu. Van privilegiar el text amb fotos sobre altres elements mediàtics. Encara que la major part va exhibir un vocabulari senzill i concís, aquestes alertes van estar mancades de claredat i precisió. Els periodistes van reconèixer que no disposen de guies estandarditzades per a la producció de les notificacions. La recerca apunta al fet que les alertes contribueixen al relat periodístic, però que els mitjans no n'han potenciat les possibilitats escrites ni multimèdia., Push-notifications are not just vehicles to distribute content or increase traffic to applications and web pages; they can also be seen as journalistic micro-narratives, or a unique form of storytelling. This study explores how alerts contribute to the journalistic story through mobile journalism. It examines the written-visual language and the production routines of news push-notifications in Puerto Rico. Through content analysis and interviews with producers of alerts, the study found that the majority of notifications communicated newsworthy information, in the third person, in the style of the news. They prioritized text with photographs over other media elements. Although most were concise and adopted a simple vocabulary, they lacked clarity and accuracy. The journalists acknowledged that they do not have standardized guidelines to produce notifications. The study indicates that push-alerts contribute to the news narrative, but the media have not fully explored its written or multimedia possibilities., Anàlisi is a science journal published by the Journalism and Communication Sciences Department of the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB). The journal has been published by the UAB Journalism Department since 1980. Anàlisi publishes science articles in the fields of the communication sciences: journalism, advertising and public relations, audiovisual communication, internet, multimedia and similar areas, always from the social and cultural viewpoint and following the theoretical and methodological approaches of the media studies disciplines. Anàlisi will especially value articles from competitive research projects, with a clear articulation of theory and methodology, a well-defined and up-to-date theoretical framework, and proposed as a significant contribution to their subject area and field.

Digital media platforms are used to make social contacts, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Journalism also adopts mobile and social platforms into news production and distribution. The usage of digital media platforms in journalistic practices has shown some interlinkage with political participation. Against these backdrops, there is a need for a theoretical framework to analyze the interlinkage and the relevant influence on social activities. This article uses a conceptual approach and theorizes platformization to explicate the rationale behind the interaction between digital platforms, mobile journalism, and political participation. Platformization in this study inspects media as mediated and dynamic platform that values interactivity and data. We also argue that the thesis of platformization derives from mediatization theory, and consists of platform logic and platform architecture. Platform logic is represented by platform functionality, platform automation, mobile mediality, and platform-based sociality. Platformization is structured by the platform architecture in the communication activities. Platform architecture has two senses. Firstly, it has the sense of internal structure, i.e., the engineering structure of software and hardware. Secondly, it contains the sense of external structure, i.e., the platform's structural position in the platform ecosystem.

Mobile devices have acquired an increasingly prominent role within the media arena. The consolidation of smartphones as the preferred platforms to access digital journalistic information has led to a number of changes in how the news is produced, distributed and eventually consumed. This article describes an evolving model of journalistic content for mobile devices to contribute to the theory of mobile media already set in motion by other peer researchers. Framed within the media ecology, the actor-network theory and the study of the society-technology relationship, we start with a bibliographic review to analyse innovations in the mobile digital ecosystem that are related to semantics (new formats and content genres) and social aspects (new forms of appropriation of media and technologies) whilst also identifying the main actors currently operating in this ecosystem. This approach makes it possible to reconstruct the emergent process that affected mobile technologies, devices, uses, platforms, products and services on a multidimensional timeline. A new stage in mobile journalism was defined and characterized from 2015 onwards. The consolidation phase for journalistic content on mobile devices is defined by the rise of social networks and micro-formats, personalization, video, audio, newsletters and news alerts, wearables, smart speakers and automation. At this stage, the production of informative content specifically designed to be distributed through various mobile devices was normalized, which led to the adaptation of old formats and the appearance of new ones., Los dispositivos móviles ocupan un lugar relevante en el escenario mediático. La consolidación de los teléfonos inteligentes como plataformas prioritarias para el acceso a la información periodística digital origina cambios en la producción, la distribución y el consumo. Este artículo presenta un modelo evolutivo del contenido periodístico para dispositivos móviles para contribuir a la teoría de los medios móviles iniciada por otros investigadores. Enmarcada en la ecología de medios, la teoría del actor-red y el estudio de la relación sociedad-tecnología, partimos de una revisión bibliográfica para analizar las innovaciones en el ecosistema digital móvil relacionadas con los aspectos semánticos (nuevos formatos y géneros de contenidos) y sociales (nuevas formas de apropiación de medios y tecnologías) y se identifican los actores principales que interactúan en este ecosistema. Se reconstruye el proceso de emergencia de tecnologías móviles, dispositivos, usos, plataformas, productos y servicios sobre un eje temporal multidimensional. Se define y caracteriza una nueva etapa en el periodismo móvil a partir del año 2015. La fase de consolidación de los contenidos periodísticos en los dispositivos móviles está protagonizada por la emergencia de las redes sociales y los microformatos, la personalización, el vídeo, el audio, los boletines y las alertas informativas, los wearables, los altavoces inteligentes y la automatización. En esta etapa se normaliza la producción de contenido informativo específico para ser distribuido y consumido a través de diferentes dispositivos móviles, adaptándose viejos formatos y surgiendo otros propios del medio.

The evolution of smartphones drives the consumption of information on digital platforms, where social networks and apps take relevance as communicative channels. This justifies the need to permanently investigate the variation of the uses and gratifications in the digital audience. This study delves into the information gap generated by analysing the audience's selection, preference and interest in the content offered on multiplatform -web, social networks and apps- to determine whether or not they follow the agenda set by the media. Thus, it proposes a case study with a double methodology of content analysis (N=210) applied to elDiario.es; and a survey (N=245) on the audience's consumption of networks and apps. The results confirm this gap and the divergence in uses and gratifications together with a media strategy that is not very specialised in mobile and networks, while the audience highlights them as relevant for their information consumption, La evolución de los smartphones impulsa el consumo informativo en plataformas digitales, donde redes sociales y aplicaciones toman relevancia como canales comunicativos. Esto justifica la necesidad de investigar permanentemente la variación de los usos y gratificaciones en la audiencia digital. Este estudio profundiza en la brecha informativa que se genera al analizar la selección, preferencia e interés de la audiencia en los contenidos ofrecidos en multiplataforma -web, redes y apps- para constatar si siguen o no la agenda marcada por los medios. Así, propone un estudio de caso con una doble metodología de análisis de contenido (N=210) aplicada a elDiario.es; y una encuesta (N=245) sobre el consumo de redes y apps en la audiencia. Los resultados confirman esta brecha y la divergencia en los usos y gratificaciones junto a una estrategia del medio poco especializada en móvil y redes, mientras la audiencia las destaca como relevantes para su consumo informativo.

Smartphone has been consolidated as the preferred gadget to access to information, according to Digital News Report (2020). By the other side, it's been years the media explore the potential of the apps in this kind of devices, in order to avoid people accessing to desktop versions from smartphones and tablets. In this context, it is pertinent doing a critical review about the main characteristics related to the digital media: hipertextuality, multimedia and interactivity. Specifically, about its aplication in apps designed natively for mobile devices. Do they behave in the same way? The enunciation of this three characteristics corresponds to the early stages of the digital journalism, prior to the irruption of smartphones and tablets in the tech market; many years before the media began to think in logical formats adapted to the new phisical devices. In this work, we examine this three concepts from the point of view of the the mobile-devices-journalism., El teléfono inteligente se ha consolidado como el gadget preferido para el acceso a la información, según el Digital News Report 2020. Por otro lado, hace años que los medios exploran las posibilidades de las aplicaciones para esos dispositivos y evitan así el acceso a versiones de escritorio desde smartphones y tablets. En este contexto, parece pertinente hacer una revisión crítica sobre la aplicación en apps pensadas para dispositivos móviles de las principales características relacionadas con los medios digitales: hipertextualidad, multimedialidad e interactividad. ¿Se comportan de igual manera? La formulación de esas características se corresponde con etapas del periodismo digital anteriores a la salida al mercado de smartphones y tablets; anteriores a que los medios comenzaran a pensar en soportes lógicos adecuados a los tamaños de los nuevos soportes físicos. En este trabajo revisamos estos tres conceptos desde el enfoque del periodismo pensado para ser distribuido en dispositivos móviles.

This paper presents a theoretical reframing of journalism as a fundamentally mobile practice and outlines a research agenda for studying the politics of mobility in journalism that is centered on the everyday work of journalists. Our reframing draws on geographer Tim Cresswell's work on the six components of a politics of mobility, which are motive force, speed, rhythm, route, experience, and friction (Cresswell, T. 2010. "Towards a Politics of Mobility." Environment and Planning D: Society and Space 28 (1): 17-31). Cresswell poses six key questions about mobility, and rephrasing them to to fit journalists, we get why do journalists move?; how fast do journalists move?; according to what rhythm do journalists move?; what route(s) do journalists take?; how do journalists feel when they move?; and what stops/impedes the movement of journalists? These questions entail a research framework concerned with the different conditions of movement for different bodies, thus drawing attention to previously under-studied areas of journalism studies.

Under det senaste decenniet har användandet av smarta mobiltelefoner ökat med 73%. Det ökade användandet har förändrat journalistiken, och allt fler journalister använder idag mobiltelefonen som ett arbetsverktyg. Begreppet Mobil Journalistik är sprunget ur detta skifte i arbetssätt, och innebär att journalister använder mobiltelefonen som ett verktyg för att samla in, bearbeta, producera och publicera nyheter från fält. Mobiltelefoner har även förändrat hur människor konsumerar nyheter, och många tar idag del av nyheter flera gånger per dag. Detta har lett till att nyhetsorganisationer ställts inför nya utmaningar, med högre krav på att nå publiken snabbt. Att främja mobil journalistik ökar möjligheten att möta dagens digitala publik, eftersom nyheter kan offentliggöras i snabbare takt och till lägre kostnad. Samtidigt saknas det forskning som beskriver hur ett mobilt arbetsverktyg bör utformas för att stödja det journalistiska fältarbetet. Denna studie undersöker hur journalister upplever processen att rapportera nyheter från fält, och hur ett mobilt publiceringsverktyg kan underlätta den processen. Genom intervjuer utforskas upplevelserna hos sex journalister som på olika sätt arbetar med att rapportera nyheter från fält. Fokus har varit att identifiera olika typer av kognitiv belastning som arbetet innebär, och som bör tas i beaktning vid utformandet av ett publiceringsgränssnitt. Resultatet visar att journalisterna i dagsläget är beroende av en dator eller en andra part för att kunna publicera sitt nyhetsmaterial, eftersom deras nuvarande publiceringsverktyg endast finns tillgängligt för datorer. Detta leder till att nyhetsmaterial skickas in till redaktionen genom olika kommunikationskanaler, för att redigeras och publiceras av kollegor som arbetar skrivbordsbundet. Tid går till spillo när kollegorna behöver hitta, bearbeta, och slutligen publicera det inkommande materialet, och leder till att nyheten når konsumenterna senare än vad som är önskvärt. Journa, Over the past decade, the use of smartphones has increased by 73%. With the increased use, journalism has changed, and many journalists use their mobile phone as a tool in their journalistic work. To use a mobile phone as the primary tool to collect, process, produce and publish news from the field is included in the concept Mobile Journalism. Mobile phones have also changed people’s consumption patterns, and it is common today to consume news several times per day. This has led news organizations to face new challenges, with higher demands on reaching out to the consumers rapidly. Promoting mobile journalism increases the opportunity to meet today's digital audience, as news can be published at a faster pace and at a lower cost. At the same time, there is a lack of research that describes how a mobile publishing tool should be designed in order support journalistic field work. This study examines how journalists experience the process of reporting news from the field, and how a mobile publishing tool can facilitate that process. Through interviews, the experiences of six journalists who report news from the field in are explored. The focus has been on identifying different types of cognitive load that the work entails, and that should be considered when designing a publishing interface. The results show that journalists depend on either a computer or desk-based colleagues to be able to publish their news material, since their current publishing tool is desktop-based. News material is therefore sent in through a number of communication channels, to someone in the editorial office to react on. Time is wasted when colleagues need to find, process, and finally publish the incoming material, leading to the news reaching the consumers later than is desirable. Journalists’ work environment is both varied and dynamic, and there is an unmet need for a mobile working tool that is easy to navigate. Concrete design proposals for how a mobile interface can be designed to facil

Introduction: Mobile phones have become one more communication channel for the media in recent years. This research analyzes how Spanish radio, press and television use notifications to send journalistic content to users of their mobile applications. Methodology: a quantitative content analysis of 1,226 notifications received in the mobile applications of the nine main Spanish media that have a mobile app has been carried out: SER, COPE, Onda Cero, Radio Nacional de España, El País, El Mundo, ABC, La Vanguardia and RTVE. Results: the study reveals that the Spanish media send notifications, fundamentally, with an informative purpose and narration of live events, and that they do so, especially, to address matters related to sports, national politics and, currently, the health, economic and social crisis caused by COVID-19. The research shows notable differences between the strategies of the different media studied and reveals a low use of graphic elements in mobile notifications, as well as in advertising. Conclusions and discussion: informative alerts are systematized in the media, although they still present operational problems in some cases and a certain homogeneity in formats and contents. There is a notable margin of use, for example, in the case of advertising as an element of monetization of the apps themselves., Introducción: Los teléfonos móviles se han convertido en un canal de comunicación más para los medios de comunicación en los últimos años. Esta investigación analiza cómo la radio, la prensa y la televisión española emplean las notificaciones para enviar contenido periodístico a los usuarios de sus aplicaciones móviles. Metodología: se ha realizado un análisis de contenido cuantitativo de 1.226 notificaciones recibidas en las aplicaciones móviles de los nueve principales medios españoles que disponen de app móvil: SER, COPE, Onda Cero, Radio Nacional de España, El País, El Mundo, ABC, La Vanguardia y RTVE. Resultados: el estudio revela que los medios españoles remiten notificaciones, fundamentalmente, con un propósito informativo y de narración de eventos en directo, y que lo hacen, especialmente, para abordar asuntos relacionados con el deporte, la política nacional y, en la actualidad, la crisis sanitaria, económica y social provocada por la COVID-19. La investigación muestra diferencias notables entre las estrategias de los distintos medios de comunicación estudiados y pone de manifiesto una escasa utilización de los elementos gráficos en las notificaciones móviles, así como de la publicidad. Conclusiones y discusión: las alertas informativas están sistematizadas en los medios de comunicación, si bien todavía presentan problemas de funcionamiento en algunos casos y una cierta homogeneidad en formatos y contenidos. Existe un notable margen de aprovechamiento, por ejemplo, en el caso de la publicidad como elemento de monetización de las propias apps.

Within this context, conversational bots have appeared, which are software applications that distribute personalised content (Al Johri et al., 2016) through social networks, online instant messaging apps, and mobile devices. This research presents a case study on the conversational political news bot known as Politibot, which is a pioneering, successful Spanish project that emerged during the 2016 election campaign. The study analyses users’ perceptions of the bot as a news and conversational tool based on their experience of use. An experimental methodology has been used in combination with other qualitative and quantitative research techniques (documentary analysis, direct observation, registration forms, as well as pre-test and post-test by means of questionnaires). The results show widespread acceptance in terms of reliability, comprehension, and the format regarding the information received from the bot, as well as its immediacy and customisation. However, the possibility of interacting with bots is still limited, which is also true of the case under study herein., La producción y distribución de noticias está cambiando a la vez que se hace más estrecha la relación entre periodismo y los sistemas de inteligencia artificial. En este contexto, aparecen los bots conversacionales, aplicaciones que distribuyen contenido personalizado (Al Johri et al., 2016) en las redes sociales y en las apps de mensajería instantánea vía online y a través de los dispositivos móviles. La presente investigación plantea un estudio de caso sobre el bot conversacional de información política Politibot, proyecto español pionero y de éxito surgido durante la campaña electoral de 2016. Se analiza la percepción que los usuarios tienen del bot como herramienta informativa y conversacional tras su experiencia de consumo. Se hace uso de una metodología experimental combinada con otras técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas de investigación (análisis documental, observación directa y ficha de registro, pre-test y pos-test por medio de cuestionarios). Los resultados muestran gran aceptación en cuanto a la fiabilidad, comprensión y formato de la información recibida por el bot, así como a su inmediatez y personalización. Sin embargo, las posibilidades de interacción con bots, como el caso analizado, son aún limitadas.

This paper, which is part of the field of immersive journalism studies, compares the narrative of contents published in El País VR, Folha 360º, Estadão RV and NYT VR, specific applications for 360-degree productions of the newspapers El País (Spain), Folha de S. Paulo and Estado de S. Paulo (Brazil) and New York Times (United States). In addition to identify the main characteristics of 51 publications, the main of this study is to verify the level of immersion these contents provide to the users. Due to this, a content analysis has been carried out, based on methodological contributions by authors from different countries. The final result points out that the spatial immersion level is much higher than the sensory level in most of the sample, which leads to a relative virtual reality experience for the user. Hence, with the exception of the content of NYT VR, the user does not usually feel involved psychologically about to immerse totally in the story and forget reality. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the creation of more innovative initiatives with digital avatar narratives., Esta investigación, que se enmarca en el campo de los estudios sobre periodismo inmersivo, compara la narrativa de los contenidos de El País VR, Folha 360º, Estadão RV y NYT VR, aplicaciones de realidad virtual de los diarios El País (España), Folha de S. Paulo y Estado de S. Paulo (Brasil) y New York Times (Estados Unidos). Además de identificar las principales características de 51 publicaciones, el objetivo de este estudio es verificar el nivel de inmersión que estos contenidos ofrecen al usuario. Se desarrolla un análisis de contenido basado en contribuciones metodológicas de autores de diferentes países. El resultado indica que el nivel de inmersión espacial es bastante superior al sensorial en la mayoría de la muestra, lo que conlleva a una experiencia de realidad virtual relativa para el usuario. A excepción de los contenidos de NYT VR, el usuario no se siente involucrado psicológicamente a punto de inmergir totalmente en la historia y olvidarse de la realidad. Por tanto, hace falta apostar por iniciativas más innovadoras, que contemplen narrativas con avatar digital.

Journalisters arbetsprocess har under 2000-talet gått igenom en förändring pågrund av mobiltelefonens utveckling. Mobiltelefonens utveckling tillsammans med internet har möjliggjort snabbare och bättre tillgång till nyheter. Ett nytt område inom journalistik har utvecklats som kallas mobil journalistik. Journalister som arbetar med mobil journalistik, arbetar ute på fält med mobiltelefonen som verktyg och gör alla moment i produktionen av nyheter. Uppdragsgivaren i detta projekt har utvecklat ett digitalt skriv- och publiceringsverktyg men saknar en lösning idag för mobil format. Journalistens arbete sker i olika miljöer som varierar. I studien undersöks hur journalister arbetar och utifrån den datan har ett koncept med ett gränssnitt utformats med målet att stödja arbetsprocessen för att skriva och publicera artiklar. Work System Theory (WST) används som utgångspunkt för att skapa en förståelse kring journalisters arbetssituation. Work System Framework (WSF) bidrar till förståelse för hur olika faktorer i ett arbetssystem influerar produktionen. Nytta och användbarhet definieras för att driva vidareutveckling av journalisters arbetssystem framåt. En fallstudie med totalt 10 deltagare som är involverade i produktionen av artiklar för tidningar har genomförts. Resultatet visar att arbetsprocessen för journalister är flexibel och varierande. Det finns behov av ett system med enklare interaktioner och som möjliggör snabb förmedling och bearbetning av bilder. Journalisters behov och mål med arbetet ligger till grund för utformningen av ett designförslag som ger svar på vilket sätt en mobilapplikation kan utformas för att stödja journalisters skriv- och publiceringsprocess för digital tidningsproduktion. Gränssnittet behöver valideras för att bekräfta om det faktiskt stödjer journalisters arbetsprocess för digital tidningsproduktion., Journalists' work process has during the 21st century gone through a change because of the mobile's development. The mobile phone's development together with the internet has made it possible to have faster and better access to news. A new area of ​​journalism has been developed, called mobile journalism. A journalist that works with mobile journalism works out on the field with the mobile as a tool and does all the steps covered by the production of news. The client in this project has developed a digital writing and publishing tool but lacks a solution today for mobile format. The journalist's work takes place in different environments that vary. This study investigates how journalists work and based on that data, a concept and interface has been designed with the aim of supporting the work process of writing and publishing articles. Work system theory (WST) is used as a starting point for creating an understanding of the journalists' work situation. Work System Framework (WSF) helps to understand how different factors in a work system affect production. Utility and usability are defined to drive further development of journalists' work systems. A study with a total of 10 participants involved in the production of newspaper articles has been conducted. The result shows that the work process for journalists is flexible and varied. There is a need for a system of simpler interactions, and which enables rapid transmission and processing of images. The journalists' needs and goals decides the basis for the design of a design proposal that answers how a mobile application can be designed to support journalists' writing and publishing process for digital newspaper production. The interface needs to be validated to confirm if the interface supports journalists in their work process with digital newspaper production.

This article retrieves, through the method of bibliographic review, the historical course of mobile journalism, understood here as that produced to be consumed from mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones, and proposes a classification in stages based on previous research done by Salaverria and Sancho (2007), Aguado and Castellet (2013), and Pellandaet al. (2017). The classification begins with the development of a timeline that indicates the main advances recorded during the two decades (1990-present) considered for the present analysis, and culminates in the organization of the events in four stages, each with its periods, services, platforms and types of communication delineated, although non-excluding: primitive formats; pre-app (or trial) stage; application economy (or homogenization/stagnation); and renewal. A framework of complementary characteristics ends the proposed historical division by highlighting inputs (input parameters in the system, starting with textual informations, evolving to visual and sonic information, reaching multimedia, until the point when an individual provides data for the device) and outputs (the output data of the system, which start being shown on single screens, going to touch screens, and are directed to tangible interfaces) of each one., Este artigo recupera, através do método de revisão bibliográfica, o percurso histórico do Jornalismo Móvel, entendido aqui como aquele produzido para consumo em dispositivos móveis como tablets e smartphones, e propõe uma classificação em fases para o campo, baseada em trabalhos pregressos de Salaverría & Sancho (2007), Aguado & Castellet (2013), e Pellanda et al. (2017). A classificação das fases do Jornalismo Móvel inicia-se com a construção de uma linha do tempo que indica os principais avanços registrados durante as duas décadas (1990-atual) consideradas para análise, e culmina com a organização dos eventos em quatro fases, com períodos, serviços, plataformas e tipos de comunicação delineados, embora não-excludentes: formatos primitivos; fase pré-app (ou de experimentação); economia dos apps (ou de homogeneização/estagnação); e renovação. Um quadro de características complementares finaliza a divisão histórica proposta, ao destacar inputs (parâmetros de entrada de informação no sistema, que começam sendo textuais, evoluem para visual e sonoro, chegando a multimídia, até o momento em que o corpo humano fornece dados para o aparelho) e outputs (os dados de saída do sistema, que começam sendo mostrados nas telas simples, passando para as telas táteis, e se encaminham para a disponibilização em interfaces tangíveis) de cada uma., Este artículo recupera, a través del método de revisión bibliográfica, el recorrido histórico del periodismo móvil, entendido aquí como aquel producido para consumo en dispositivos móviles como tablets y smartphones, y propone una clasificación en fases para el campo, basada en trabajos anteriores de Salaverría y Sancho (2007), Aguado y Castellet (2013), y Pellanda et al.

The era of mobile media has placed communications convergence at a new stage. The importance of studies about mobile communications has been growing increasingly over the last years. This growth is connected to the increase in the access to contents through new devices. The last ten years have seen a process of acceleration in mobile technology innovations. The peak of this new scenario has been the interest of the research community in investigating the relationship between such innovations and the spread of informative contents. This article analyses those studies that address the relation between mobile devices and communication and journalism. The main objective is to clarify the current state of these studies as well as to define their significance within the current convergence scenario. In order to reach such objectives, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted. The authors analysed 199 research articles published between January 2008 and May 2018 in the database Web of Science. The findings suggest that the United States has the largest number of studies in relation to this topic. We can pinpoint the highest increase in scientific production about journalism and mobile communications in 2013. Besides, it exists a dominance of those articles related with actants upon those ones about actors or audiences., La era de los medios móviles ha situado la convergencia comunicativa en un nuevo estadio. La movilidad ha abierto un gran campo en la cambiante sociedad red. La producción científica sobre periodismo móvil ha adquirido un mayor protagonismo gracias a las mejoras técnicas de los dispositivos y a la democratización en el acceso a los contenidos por parte de los usuarios. En los últimos diez años se ha producido una aceleración en las innovaciones tecnológicas que se ha traducido en un mayor interés por esta área de estudio. En este trabajo se analizan los artículos sobre dispositivos móviles y periodismo a fin de definir el momento actual del proceso y situar el papel que ocupan en el escenario convergente. El método ha sido una revisión sistemática de la literatura científica (SLR) de 199 artículos publicados entre enero del 2008 y mayo del 2018 en la base de datos Web of Science. La validación siguió los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, identificación de la base de datos, motores de búsqueda, y evaluación y descripción de resultados. Los hallazgos indican que en Estados Unidos se concentra el mayor número de publicaciones relacionadas con este tema y que el auge de la producción científica sobre periodismo móvil se da en el año 2013. Se concluye que existe un predominio de publicaciones relacionadas con los actantes en detrimento de aquellas que versan sobre actores o audiencias.

En este trabajo se analizan los artículos sobre dispositivos móviles y periodismo a fin de definir el momento actual del proceso y situar el papel que ocupan en el escenario convergente. El método ha sido una revisión sistemática de la literatura científica (SLR) de 199 artículos publicados entre enero del 2008 y mayo del 2018 en la base de datos Web of Science. La validación siguió los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, identificación de la base de datos, motores de búsqueda, y evaluación y descripción de resultados. Los hallazgos indican que en Estados Unidos se concentra el mayor número de publicaciones relacionadas con este tema y que el auge de la producción científica sobre periodismo móvil se da en el año 2013. Se concluye que existe un predominio de publicaciones relacionadas con los actantes en detrimento de aquellas que versan sobre actores o audiencias.

Journalisters arbetsprocess har under 2000-talet gått igenom en förändring pågrund av mobiltelefonens utveckling. Mobiltelefonens utveckling tillsammans med internet har möjliggjort snabbare och bättre tillgång till nyheter. Ett nytt område inom journalistik har utvecklats som kallas mobil journalistik. Journalister som arbetar med mobil journalistik, arbetar ute på fält med mobiltelefonen som verktyg och gör alla moment i produktionen av nyheter. Uppdragsgivaren i detta projekt har utvecklat ett digitalt skriv- och publiceringsverktyg men saknar en lösning idag för mobil format. Journalistens arbete sker i olika miljöer som varierar. I studien undersöks hur journalister arbetar och utifrån den datan har ett koncept med ett gränssnitt utformats med målet att stödja arbetsprocessen för att skriva och publicera artiklar. Work System Theory (WST) används som utgångspunkt för att skapa en förståelse kring journalisters arbetssituation. Work System Framework (WSF) bidrar till förståelse för hur olika faktorer i ett arbetssystem influerar produktionen. Nytta och användbarhet definieras för att driva vidareutveckling av journalisters arbetssystem framåt. En fallstudie med totalt 10 deltagare som är involverade i produktionen av artiklar för tidningar har genomförts. Resultatet visar att arbetsprocessen för journalister är flexibel och varierande. Det finns behov av ett system med enklare interaktioner och som möjliggör snabb förmedling och bearbetning av bilder. Journalisters behov och mål med arbetet ligger till grund för utformningen av ett designförslag som ger svar på vilket sätt en mobilapplikation kan utformas för att stödja journalisters skriv- och publiceringsprocess för digital tidningsproduktion. Gränssnittet behöver valideras för att bekräfta om det faktiskt stödjer journalisters arbetsprocess för digital tidningsproduktion., Journalists' work process has during the 21st century gone through a change because of the mobile's development. The mobile phone's development together with the internet has made it possible to have faster and better access to news. A new area of ​​journalism has been developed, called mobile journalism. A journalist that works with mobile journalism works out on the field with the mobile as a tool and does all the steps covered by the production of news. The client in this project has developed a digital writing and publishing tool but lacks a solution today for mobile format. The journalist's work takes place in different environments that vary. This study investigates how journalists work and based on that data, a concept and interface has been designed with the aim of supporting the work process of writing and publishing articles. Work system theory (WST) is used as a starting point for creating an understanding of the journalists' work situation. Work System Framework (WSF) helps to understand how different factors in a work system affect production. Utility and usability are defined to drive further development of journalists' work systems. A study with a total of 10 participants involved in the production of newspaper articles has been conducted. The result shows that the work process for journalists is flexible and varied. There is a need for a system of simpler interactions, and which enables rapid transmission and processing of images. The journalists' needs and goals decides the basis for the design of a design proposal that answers how a mobile application can be designed to support journalists' writing and publishing process for digital newspaper production. The interface needs to be validated to confirm if the interface supports journalists in their work process with digital newspaper production.

The demand for journalists to understand technology and embrace it as a skill emerged along with the evolution of digital media (Cairo, 2012; Knaflic, 2015). Hence journalism schools have been adapting their curriculum to include those abilities in their classrooms (Broussard, 2015). In this paper, we offer a case study of one such approach at PUCRS University in Brazil, where, since 2011, students have been challenged to make a journalistic app with the Android AppInventor platform in class. This paper addresses this experience and the perception of journalism and media students of PUCRS in Brazil. It is perceived that allying computation and journalism makes professionals think not only about the development itself, but on the packaging of information and distribution of content, two fundamental logics today. However, results also show that the tension between journalism and coding appears to be an ongoing discussion. That happens in a context where the media marketplace perhaps hasn’t figured out how to embrace journalists with coding comprehension to take advantage of it., A demanda para que jornalistas compreendam a tecnologia e adotem-na como uma habilidade surgiu junto com a evolução da mídia digital (Cairo, 2012; Knaflic, 2015). Assim, as escolas de jornalismo têm adaptado seus currículos para incluir essas habilidades em sala de aula (Broussard, 2015). Neste artigo, oferecemos um estudo de caso de uma dessas abordagens na Universidade PUCRS, no Brasil, onde, desde 2011, os alunos são desafiados a fazer um aplicativo jornalístico com a plataforma AppInventor em sala de aula. Este artigo aborda essa experiência e a percepção de jornalistas e estudantes de mídia da PUCRS. Percebe-se que aliar computação e jornalismo faz com que os profissionais pensem não só sobre o próprio desenvolvimento, mas sobre como empacotar informações e distribuir conteúdo, duas lógicas fundamentais hoje. No entanto, os resultados também mostram que a tensão entre jornalismo e programação parece ser uma discussão ainda bem forte. Isso acontece em um contexto em que o mercado de mídia talvez ainda não tenha descoberto como incorporar jornalistas com a compreensão de código e programação de modo a melhor aproveitá-los.

Modern black citizen journalists have embraced the mobile phone as their storytelling tool of choice to produce raw reportage that challenges long-standing narratives of race, power and privilege in America. This dissertation investigates specifically how leading anti-police brutality activists—especially those affiliated with the Black Lives Matter Movement—leverage the affordances of mobile and social media to report original news within the contemporary social justice “beat.” Through semi-structured interviews and a descriptive analysis of the activists’ Twitter timelines, I explore the journalistic roles that these activists perform, the types of stories that they produce most often, and the relationships that they have formed with their audiences. I argue that the reportage from these black witnesses forms the vanguard of modern protest journalism, which functions from a positionality of sousveillance to watch powerful authorities from below. This evolving genre of protest journalism fills the editorial voids that the dying Black press has left behind, and invents ripe areas of inquiry for journalism studies.

The impact of new technologies in journalism dates back to early the XXI century, when the introduction of the Internet brought in newsrooms changes affecting the processes of production, transmission and reception of information. Digitization forced to restructure newsrooms and journalists to rethink new content distribution strategies. This phenomenon of mutations, known as the convergence is intensified at present with the advent of mobile devices in the communications landscape. Smartphones allow the production and consumption of information is performed, for the first time, anywhere, while on the move. The technological evolution of the small screens placed the devices as important platform for the media industry. The goal is present the strengths, weaknesses, challenges and the impact of mobile telephony in the area of communication. We present also the lines of action that are following the main European media in this area., El impacto de las nuevas tecnologías en el periodismo se remonta a principios del siglo XXI, cuando la introducción de Internet en las redacciones trajo consigo cambios que afectaron a los procesos de producción, emisión y recepción de la información. La digitalización obligó a las redacciones a reestructurarse y a los periodistas a repensar nuevas estrategias de distribución de contenidos. Este fenómeno de mutaciones, conocido con el nombre de convergencia, se intensifica en la actualidad con la llegada de los dispositivos móviles en el panorama comunicativo. Los teléfonos permiten que la producción y el consumo de información se realice, por primera vez, en cualquier lugar y mientras se está en movimiento. La evolución tecnológica de las pequeñas pantallas situó a los dispositivos como una plataforma de gran importancia para la industria mediática. El objetivo es presentar las fortalezas, desafíos y debilidades del impacto de la telefonía móvil en el ámbito comunicativo. Se presentan, además, las líneas de actuación que están siguiendo en este ámbito los principales medios de comunicación europeos.
