New media technologies

Trinta anos depois dos debates sobre a Nova Ordem Mundial da Informação e Comunicação (NOMIC), as desigualdades nos fluxos globais de informação permanecem,porém num contexto em que a produção e a circulação são facilitadas pelas novas tecnologias (NTICs). Este trabalho identifica fatores que contribuem para este aparente paradoxo e propõe mudanças na práxis jornalística – particularmente na cobertura internacional – que podem permitir aos países em desenvolvimento alcançar os objetivos pleiteados pela NOMIC.

Gazetecilere “gökyüzündeki gözlerden” biri olma olanağı sunan drone’lar, büyük medya kuruluşlarının habercilik faaliyetlerinden yurttaş gazeteciliğine dek uzanan gazetecilik alan ve uygulamaları için yeni olanaklar ve açılımlar sunmaktadır. Ancak diğer yandan, sahip olduğu havadan yüksek gözetim kapasitesi drone kullanımlarında sınırlarının nasıl çizileceğine dair tartışmaları da beraberinde getirmektedir. Ulusal güvenlik, kamu sağlığı ve güvenliği, özel yaşamın korunması ile kamunun bilgi alma özgürlüğü, basın özgürlüğü ve ifade özgürlüğü tartışma konularından bazılarıdır. Drone’ların gazetecilik amaçlı kullanımları üzerine odaklanan bu çalışmada drone haberciliğinin sunduğu olanaklar, bu olanakların sınırları konuyla ilgili yasal ve etik çekinceler göz önüne alınarak, mevcut ulusal ve uluslararası literatür çerçevesinde irdelenmektedir.

This paper is an exploratory study of the Nigerian film industry popularly called Nollywood. It evaluates the humble beginnings of the industry to its meteoric rise which is attributed to audience responses to the films and facilitated by the adoption of new communication technologies. The paper goes on to evaluate the relationship and potential influence of Nollywood on Nigerian indigenous culture in the era of globalization and observes that the influence is both positive and negative. The paper suggests that in the globalized world of today, Nollywood should serve as a vehicle for local cultural transfer as well as a means of indigenous cultural development. This, the paper concludes, should be done through the creative portrayal and juxtaposition of both local and global cultural norms in the themes of Nollywood films.

The new digital media are at the heart of a culture and a grown-digital-generation who, in profound and fundamental ways, learn, work, play, communicate, shop, and create communities very differently than their parents (Livingstone, 2002; Tapscott, 1998, 2009). This grown-digital-generation, the group following on the heels of Generation X, is being called the Net Generation. In 2011, they are adolescents and young adults between the ages of 14 and 34. In many ways, this generation feels more comfortable with computers than do their parents, so they are more likely to be online consumers and users of social media. Bombarded with information and being media savvy, this generation has grown up understanding the digital economy. More than any previous generation, they are conversant with a communications revolution transforming business, education, health care, social relations, entertainment, government, and every other institution.
Previous research has estimated this group represents 27 percent of the population in the United States (Tapscott, 2009), making it a consumer group potentially larger than the baby boomers. Net Geners are more numerous, more affluent, better educated, and more ethnically diverse than any generation (Howe & Strauss, 2000). As Internet is the medium of choice for the Net Geners, a better grasp on how the characteristics of this cohort are linked to their Internet behavior would help marketers and designers to effectively use the medium. This article examines the Net Generation attributes and its relationships to their cyber behaviors especially in learning, entertainment, and social relationships.

As traditional news media struggle to adapt to a new journalism paradigm with the onslaught of a historic technological disruption in journalism, some institutions are altering decades-old newsgathering and dissemination routines by utilizing emerging media technologies to engage with a newly active audience through two-way asymmetric communication. Concurrently, these new journalism norms are challenging long-standing gatekeeping, agenda-setting, and framing media theories.
This comparison case study focuses on the Orlando Sentinel newspaper in Central Florida and its groundbreaking coverage on two seminal court trials: State of Florida v. Casey Marie Anthony and State of Florida v. George Zimmerman. Both of the trials garnered national and international media attention due to the controversial and sensational nature of the charges. Anthony was acquitted of first-degree murder in the death of her two-year-old daughter, Caylee. Zimmerman was acquitted on second- degree murder charges for the shooting death of unarmed teenager, Trayvon Martin. These trials were selected in part because the researcher was employed by the Orlando Sentinel at the time of the trials and study, and therefore had privileged knowledge and
8
direct access to the inner-workings of the newspaper and the employees who covered the trials.
Employing qualitative case study methodologies, this research involved a series of in-depth interviews with reporters, photographers, web and social media producers, and editors who were directly involved with covering the trials. Through these interviews, the researcher investigated the changes the Orlando Sentinel made to its traditional newsgathering and dissemination processes in response to audience demand, and how those new processes directed readers to the newspaper’s multiple resources in print, online, and on mobile platforms for obtaining information about the trials.
The study demonstrated how these emerging newsgathering and dissemination techniques challenged existing gatekeeping, agenda-setting, and framing media theories, whereby information is no longer passing through one specific gatekeeper and the audience is now actively engaged in setting the agenda and framing the context of the story. Findings show that audience demands for live and continuous information throughout the development of the Casey Anthony and George Zimmerman stories and resulting court proceedings were a driving force in changing outdated journalism paradigms that led to the adaptation of a new norm by the Orlando Sentinel newsroom and journalists.

The interplay of powerful forces of advertising, news sources, government and political elites has been implicated in promotion of ideology in the news. This study investigates the ideological considerations in newspaper reports in Nigeria and explores what may be responsible for the ideological stance taken by newspapers in reporting issues in society. Using the political economy and hegemony construct as its springboard, the study adopted the mixed methods of quantitative content analysis of the news content in the Daily Trust and The Punch newspapers, and in-depth interviews with 20 editors and senior journalists in the two newspapers to generate its data. Findings from the quantitative content analysis revealed that nearly half of the news reported by the two newspapers was on safe news or news considered as uncritical of the status quo. The findings in the quantitative strand of the study is corroborated by that of the in-depth interviews with more than half of the respondents believing that aside from news concentrating on the government, priority attention was given to safe news to the detriment of critical issues like poverty, food crisis and unemployment, among others. The study concludes that the challenge that newspapers are going through in Nigeria presently constitutes part of the reasons why most of them to rely on ideological forces for their news and their survival.

This study proposes a new hybrid method combining computer-assisted personal interviews (CAPI) with interviewer-assisted self-administered Web surveys with data entry device provided (IASAD) and examines the effect of data collection mode and entry devices on survey response quality. We compare the response quality of CAPI versus IASAD modes; and between smartphones and laptop computers as data entry devices.  Both main effects of mode and data entry device on data quality were found. The field experiment shows that respondents who entered the Web survey on laptops have significantly higher completion rates only on open-ended questions than smartphones, but no other significant differences in data quality between data entry device were found in other question formats.  CAPI in general resulted in lower response quality than IASAD. The benefits and limitations of IASAD and the use of smartphones as data entry devices are discussed.

This work is the result of an experiment carried out by the teacher / researcher, with students of classes of the 2nd and 3rd years of High School, of a Public School of the State network, located in Brazil, in the city of Diamantina, belonging to the State of Minas Gerais. Its main objective is to analyze how the use of new technologies in the classroom, such as the concept maps tool, can contribute both to teaching-learning physics and as an instrument to facilitate learning and evaluation. Thus, from the researches and studies, the conceptual maps tool was used as a facilitator tool in the evaluation, for the improvement in students' scores on the content of Physics. The methodology used in this research was defined as qualitative, based on an experimental and documentary study. The research was divided in two stages: in the first stage, the conceptual maps tool was used as a learning tool, comparing notes between two classes of the 2nd year (A and B), experimental and control. A total of 116 students participated during the first semester in 2014 and 2015. In the second stage, continuing research, conceptual maps were used as an evaluation tool in 3rd year classes (A and B), Experimental, verifying the effectiveness of this tool with the collaboration of three evaluating teachers in the content of Physics. \

Este trabalho é o resultado de uma experimentação realizada pela docente/pesquisadora, com alunos de turmas do 2º e 3º anos do Ensino Médio, de uma Escola Pública da rede Estadual, localizada no Brasil, na cidade de Diamantina, pertencente ao Estado de Minas Gerais. Tem como principal objetivo, analisar de que maneira a utilização de novas tecnologias em sala de aula, a exemplo da ferramenta mapas conceituais, podem contribuir tanto para o ensino-aprendizagem de Física quanto como instrumento facilitador da aprendizagem e da avaliação. Assim, a partir de pesquisas e estudos foi utilizada a ferramenta mapas conceituais como instrumento facilitador na avaliação, para a melhoria nas notas dos discentes no conteúdo de Física. A metodologia utilizada nessa pesquisa definiu-se como qualitativa, a partir de um estudo experimental e documental. A pesquisa foi dividida em duas etapas: na primeira etapa, utilizou-se da ferramenta mapas conceituais enquanto instrumento de aprendizagem, comparando notas entre duas turmas de 2º ano (A e B), experimental e controle. Participaram da pesquisa, nesta primeira etapa, 116 discentes, durante um semestre escolar, referentes aos anos de 2014 e 2015. Na segunda etapa, dando continuidade à pesquisa, utilizou-se da ferramenta mapas conceituais enquanto instrumento de avaliação, em turmas de 3º ano (A e B), experimental, verificando a eficácia dessa ferramenta com a colaboração de três docentes avaliadores no conteúdo de Física. Participaram da pesquisa, nesta segunda etapa, 45 discentes, durante dois semestres escolares, referente ao ano de 2015. Os resultados, bem como a análise qualitativa do processo, demonstraram que houve um avanço significativo nas notas dos discentes, tanto em relação à primeira etapa, como instrumento de comparação entre as turmas analisadas, quanto em relação à segunda etapa, na medida em que, estes desenvolveram avaliações, utilizando mapas conceituais, enquanto ferramenta avaliativa no conteúdo de Física.

RESUMEN
Antes de Internet cada medio de comunicación tenía funciones y mercados perfectamente definidos. Sin embargo, a consecuencia del formidable desarrollo de Internet y de las comunicaciones digitales, el mismo contenido hoy puede circular a través de distintos medios de comunicación. Esa es la convergencia cul- tural. El relato transmediático anticipa el advenimiento de nuevos mercados de consumo cultural. Con base en la ecología de medios y particularmente considerando las tesis de Marshall McLuhan, Neil Postman y Henry Jenkins, es analizada la convergencia cultural como complejo ambiente comunicativo. La convergencia cultural modifica los procedimientos de operación de las industrias mediáticas. Los cam- bios más significativos, sin embargo, se presentan en las comunidades de conocimiento.
ABSTRACT
Before the Internet, the different media had specifically defined functions and markets. However, since the emergence of the Internet and digital communication, the same content can be found right across the media; this is known as cultural convergence. This media crossing anticipates the coming of new markets of cultural consumption. Based on media ecology, with specific reference to the thesis developed by Marshall McLuhan, Neil Postman, and Henry Jenkins, cultural convergence is studied as a complex com- munication environment. Cultural convergence modifies the operative procedures of media industries. However, the most significant changes can be found within the knowledge communities.

Advertising is experiencing a huge disruption to every aspect of the industry. The revolution is certainly creating considerable concern among those comfortable with traditional industry structures and approaches. Yet this shift will open up new opportunities in terms of media and advertising formats, and consumer reach and engagement-not to mention cross-disciplinary collaborations, specializations, delivery technologies, financial structures, and reception performance approaches. As Internet technology guru Clay Shirky recently stated: "It is the people who work out how to work simply in the present, rather than the people who mastered the complexities of the past, who get to say what happens in the future."

Abstract- Education has been considered as the vital part of life for all. Classroom teaching has taken immediate leap since its inception. In many parts of the world steps are taken by the universities to improve the efficacy in classroom teaching through new technologies.  This paper is the compilation of different new media technologies used in the classroom teaching. The media technologies include consumer technologies, enabling technologies, social media technologies, visualization technologies, digital strategies and learning technologies.
The paper is premised on a review of the extant literature on different new media technologies used in classroom teaching in higher education.  It addresses the advantages and challenges of different new media technologies in classroom teaching.  Building on the review, the paper identifies essential new technologies for Higher Education. This paper also highlights different classroom teaching pedagogy and innovative methods for teaching.
This paper concludes that the common major problems of the new media technology are bandwidth allocation and awareness among the teachers and students.
The paper is mainly useful for teachers to know about the different emerging technologies used in classroom teaching.
Keywords- New media technology; Classroom Teaching; Adaptability; Integrated Learning Programs.

This article examines how one Central Florida newspaper used emerging media technologies to communicate and engage better with a newly active audience during its coverage of two high- profile court trials. Through a series of in-depth interviews with participating journalists, the author demonstrates how the Orlando Sentinel disrupted traditional newsgathering and dissemi- nation methods during reporting of the Casey Anthony and George Zimmerman trials, and in doing so, challenged long-standing gatekeeping media theories and exemplified emerging participatory journalism models. Findings show that audience demands for live and continuous information throughout the development of the Casey Anthony and George Zimmerman stories and resulting court proceedings were a driving force in changing outdated journalism paradigms that led to the adaptation of a new norm by the Orlando Sentinel newsroom and journalists.

This article focuses on selfies and empowerment of individuals with physical disabilities. By exploring the #FSHDselfies campaign as a case study, I discuss the role affect plays in mediated advocacy for the representation of non-normative bodies, allowing disabled individuals to gather as a community and disrupt contemporary beauty standards. I draw on the case study to re-articulate the term " community of affect " (Climo, 2001) as the socio-political structure that promotes marginalized groups' negotiation of collective identity and communal action geared towards cultural, social, and political change. This community can be seen as a subsection or a specific discursive space categorized under " affective publics " (Papacharissi, 2014). I show in this context how participatory forms of representation open a space for negotiation and criticism of marginalized groups on the one hand, while oversimplifying the complex and diverse lives of minority groups on the other hand.

This article explores the multiple possibilities offered when literary and technological media are combined to influence and reshape the relationship between readers and writers, as evidenced in Joyce R. Walker's hypertext " Textural Textuality: A Personal Exploration Of Critical Race Theory " (2002). Walker blends life experience with scholarly theory in order to explore the causes of social discrimination and injustice, while at the same time maintaining a critical position in respect of new media technologies. In order to explore this text's various dimensions, this essay will look to formative approaches to hypertext, especially with reference to linearity, navigation, and reading processes and experiences, in critical works by Espen Aaseth, Jessica Pressman, George P. Landow, and N. Katherine Hayles. Particular emphasis is given to the idea, promoted by Janet H. Murray, Brian McHale, and Aarseth, that hypertext's interactive qualities involve both readers and writers in the production of the literary object. Such interactivity, this essay argues, blurs the boundaries that have conventionally separated readers and authors, with reading and writing assigned to both agents in this transformative literary medium. The emergence of new media has brought to the fore new possibilities for interaction and has redefined how people perceive the world. New media have made possible the interconnection of various disciplines and they have enhanced access to various sources of knowledge and information in all the disciplines. This article focuses on the influence that new media have on literary expression and form. They have, through ongoing acts of textual experimentation, challenged and redefined both the literary experience and reading practices, as well as the notion of text itself; as a consequence, literary critics and theorists have been engaged in a rethinking of precisely what constitutes a text. In the expanding field of electronic literature everything can constitute a text, from simple images to any form of art; the text may consist of images, scripted content, mere words, or a mixture of all of these; it can also be combined with motion, sound, and animation. The present article explores the new roles offered by new electronic media with regard to both readers and writers in electronic literature, in general, and the hypertext form, in particular. More specifically, Joyce R. Walker's hypertext " Textural Textuality: A Personal Exploration of Critical Race Theory " (2002) constitutes an example of how these roles open up and are transformed by new media. Walker's " Textural Textuality " is an online hypertext work that combines creative and critical writing. By making use of the various possibilities offered by hypertext, Walker is able to touch upon important issues, such as race, memory,

Ce chapitre plaide pour une approche comparative de l'histoire des technologies de communication. Ces comparaisons souvent implicites doivent être systématisées. Le chapitre propose une typologie des cinq catégories de comparison: la comparaison déterministe compare les effets censées être directs de technologies qu'on hypostasie (par exemple: l'imprimerie et l'internet, comparison très à la mode); la comparaison holistique examine les technologies dans leurs contextes comme des ensembles techniques; la comparaison discursives s'attachent aux discours utopiques et dystopiques qui ont accompagné chaque technologie; la comparaison déconstructionniste comparent différentes phases dans l'histoire d'une technologie donnée, trop facilement réifiée comme homogène (par exemple: télévisions publique/commerciale), et la comparaison unidimensionnelle se limite à l'impact de différentes technologies sur un seul domaine (par exemple: l'éducation ou le langage). Un tel programme peut enrichir à la fois l'histoire des médias et la sociologie des techniques. Ce chapitre est extrait d'un ouvrage dirigé par C. Blandin, F. Robinet et V. Shafer

Changes in the scientific discourse regarding the definition of the concept of “immersive journalism” are considered and the main
stages of the critical understanding of the phenomenon are identified. The role of the technological factor as a concept-forming
element of VR-communication is studied. 360 ° videos, published on the official YouTube channels of the 1 + 1 television company
and Radio Liberty Ukraine in 2015-2019, were studied using the Witmer-Singer methodology. The four groups of factors were
identified that ensure the presence in a virtual environment. Several video formats were analyzed: news stories, social advertising,
special projects, video broadcasts, multimedia projects, among which there is both event and author’s content. It was determined
that factors constantly affect each other, influencing also the main components of the VR effect – presence, involvement and
immersion. Videos claiming maximum efficiency should rely on sensory and distraction factors, since the immersive complex
“presence + involvement + inclusion” depends on them. In the analyzed texts, the hierarchy of factors is as follows: in the first place
are the distraction factors (which makes sense), but the second place is taken by the realism factors despite the format of the text.
It is emphasized that realism should come to the fore, if immersive technologies are used in creating news stories and the user is not
able to control the composition. In this case, the presence is formed through the immersion in the story. Author’s journalistic texts
are created using the methods that allow users to influence the course of the story, propose their own chronotope and create
different levels of emotional immersion through, for example, maximum involvement. World practice proves the effectiveness of this
principle, but Ukrainian journalists do not use it. Sensory and control factors are usually overlooked, the attention is usually paid to
the sensory modality and the anticipation of an action, which are integral elements of journalistic videos

Comment sait-on ce que l’on sait sur la citoyenneté des adolescents et leurs pratiques de participation civique ? Cette question épistémologique a été négligée dans les écrits traitant de l’engagement civique et de la participation politique des jeunes. Cet article utilise la perspective théorique de la justice sociale pour examiner le rôle que jouent les rapports sociaux fondés sur l’âge dans la production de connaissances qui offrent un portrait pessimiste du rapport des jeunes à la politique. L’analyse montre que l’injustice épistémique et la validation empirique déficiente des connaissances à propos de la compétence civique appellent une théorisation alternative, précisément inclusive, de la citoyenneté des jeunes. L’analyse souligne aussi que l’avènement du Web social a créé de nouveaux besoins de connaissances que les cadres de recherche établis par tradition peinent à satisfaire. Un premier pas vers la production de connaissances socialement justes au sujet des compétences civiques des adolescents à l’ère du Web social consiste à analyser les fondements épistémologiques des approches de recherche prédominantes afin de susciter des échanges fructueux au sujet des critères normatifs qui devraient guider la confection des protocoles de recherche dans le futur.

Thinking today’s adolescents’ citizenship through social justice lens: Why and how?

How do we know what we know about youth citizenship ? This epistemological question has been neglected in the field of youth citizenship and public discourses on youth political apathy. This article draws on the theoretical perspective of social justice studies to unmask the relations of power based on age that have shaped current knowledge about youth citizenship. The analysis draws attention to the epistemic injustices and methodological flaws in the specific field of civic literacy in Canada. It is argued that a difference-centered approach to youth citizenship could help foster a better understanding of youth experiences of civic engagement and political participation. Yet, this potentiel can only be achieved through a self-reflexive inquiry that critically investigates the research process itself in current research trends. Although a dominant approach in the study of civic literacy is limited in its capacity to produce knowledge that is socially just towards adolescents, te concept could be reinvigorated through a critical empirically-grounded examination of youth civic competencies that are evidenced in some of their engagments with new media technologies. Yet, to fulfill this goal also requires that scholars engage in crucial debates about their chosen epistemology and theory of democracy.

North-East India refers to a vast region of 2,62,230 square km which consists with eight states - Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura and  Sikkim. Natural resource-rich North-Eastern part of India is highly divergent in ethnicity,  culture and linguistics. West Bengal shares its border with two North-Eastern states such as Assam and Sikkim. A significant Bengali speaking population lived in Tripura and Assam. Barak valley of Assam witnessed the strong fight for Bengali language in 1961. Bengali is also the Official language of Tripura with Kokborok. Siliguri corridor of West Bengal works  as a bridge between North-East and mainland. Due this intense linkage with North-Eastern states this paper attempts to draw a comparative analysis between National news channel and Bengali regional news channel on the context of news from North-East. Previous studies revealed that representation of North-East in Indian mainstream media is very marginal. This paper will re-examine the notion by analysing content of news bulletin of five 24x7 Television news channels in English, Hindi and Bengali language.

This study aimed at unveiling the influence of media (satellite communication devices, internet, laptops, notebooks, mobile phones, Ipads, android tablets and other related technological devices) on Nigerian students' acquisition of hidden curriculum. Hidden curriculum is esoteric experiences that are acquired by human being in order to socialize with the environment. However, some covert experiences that are acquired through the use of media seem to affect students' grammar and psychologically derail concentration from studies due to considerable time spent unconsciously on their use. The study suggests public awareness on the pros and cons of the use of media to acquire educational experiences and ideas. Also, counseling services were recommended on how students' unconscious attitude to the use of technological media could be rechanneled towards educational programmes that would facilitate cross breeding of academic ideas and knowledge for improved performance.

En la Era de la Información se produjo una transformación total en cada plano de existen-cia, tanto en términos individuales como colectivos.

In this text the ideas about technology and anti-technology were analysed in two contexts: an industrial one (with the changes generated by the Industrial Revolution) and a cybercultural one (with the changes generated by the Internet). The use of technology was not always welcomed when it first appeared and there are several examples of resistance to it. However, with time, it became increasingly appreciated, at a professional, health and safety, and also at a domestic level. Nevertheless, a fear still lingers of the notion that machines and technologies might be harmful to human lives – due to its excessive use or to the potential destructive power they entail.

Oude en nieuwe media spelen een steeds grotere rol in onze huidige postindustriële samenleving. Televisie en mobiele telefonie zijn diep doorgedrongen in het dagelijkse leven van veel mensen. Communicatie is door de komst van internet ingrijpend veranderd. We wachten niet meer af, maar gaan zelf op zoek. Beginnen zelf deel uit te maken van de media. Of worden daartoe gedwongen. Dat heeft gevolgen voor het medialandschap. Ook in Nederland. Begrippen als web 2.0, burgerjournalistiek en muziek 2.0 beheersen de discussies over de media. De hoogste tijd dus om de Nederlandse stand van zaken te onderwerpen aan een kritische blik.

Hoewel Nederland een rijke traditie heeft in nieuwe media, is het aantal Nederlandse publicaties over de Nederlandse mediacultuur op de vingers van één hand te tellen. Gewoontegetrouw zijn we gewend om eerst onze blik op het buitenland te richten om te kijken wat daar wordt gezegd en geschreven. In deze publicatie wordt gebroken met de oer-Hollandse gewoonte om direct buitenlandse experts aan het woord te laten.

We hebben twintig mediatheoretici, wetenschappers en publicisten gevraagd om vanuit hun eigen discipline te beschrijven wat er in Nederland zoal gebeurt op het gebied van nieuwe media. Het resultaat is een lappendeken van bijdragen waarin wordt geput uit praktijk én theorie. Vanuit uiteenlopende invalshoeken en vakgebieden zoals literatuur, architectuur, beeldende kunst en sociologie belichten de auteurs verschillende onderwerpen: de relatie tussen journalistiek en weblogs, de culturele betekenis van nieuwe media voor de verschillende kunstdisciplines, de invloed van games op onze werkelijkheid, open source en RFID in Nederland. Actuele ontwikkelingen worden door de perspectieven van de auteurs van een politiek-maatschappelijke, technologische en kunsthistorische context voorzien.

Allesomvattend zijn we niet. Dat is ook niet onze bedoeling. De krant wil in eerste plaats een kritische en realistische blik werpen op het Nederlandse landschap van nieuwe media. Tevens hopen we met deze krant een bijdrage te kunnen leveren aan de theorievorming rond nieuwe media in eigen land.

The technological innovations surrounding television have continued to grow since its debut sixty years ago, gradually altering audience’s experience. The wealth of academic work in this field, however, is often outpaced by the speed of technological change. Moreover, there is currently a dearth of empirical research on television and audience’s experience; and not enough research is being done on technologies of television.

This paper particularly focuses on these two gaps in research and examines audience’s experience of available television technologies and online services. The findings come from a qualitative study of families, examining their experience of television viewing using a variety of technologies. The paper proposes personalisation as a useful way to conceptualise the growing amount of media technologies in the home and their consequences for households’ everyday life. It argues that personalisation of television does not only potentially influence how individuals access the content and use the technology, but also the ways they think about these technologies and the relationships they establish with them, as well as with other family members.
