Every year Cali celebrates The Festival Petronio Alvarez”. In 2016 the twentieth anniversary was celebrated and for that, the Communications Department of the Ministry of Culture of Colombia, in its task to promote the creation of communicative and cultural content they invited university students to the Laboratory for the creation and circulation of communication contents, called: Petronio en Clave Digital (MINCULTURA, 2016). For the development of this activity, a group of creators was formed by young people and teachers from different universities and foundations, who participated in training and production activities to build pieces in different formats during the festival. This is how the publicity group participates for the first time in this valuable cultural experience, achieving the first place in this contest, with the collective work called Mirada hacia el Pazcifico Petronio. The process consisted in carrying out fieldwork in the place of the event (Coliseo del Pueblo, Cali) and from that same place, photographic, sound and audiovisual material was collected, through observation, interviews, and life stories; then proceed to make the different formats of content and thus be promoted in platform and social networks, reporting daily to both the region and the country and the international audience with English and Portuguese translation. Present this investigative exercise, evidence how advertising can contribute, in this case for the promotion and preservation of Afro-Colombian culture. Petronio en clave digital is a story of teamwork, creative expression, and the best example of commitment to the search to do proactive, innovative and integrating research.

In today’s complex world, a continuous upgrade of knowledge is crucial. Digital literacy, as one of the key competencies of the 21st century, is becoming more critical since it enables an efficient use of digital devices and tools. The European Union has set five key competencies for digital literacy, including informational and data literacy, digital content creation and communication and collaboration. In education, communication is widely accepted as a crucial skill for achieving common goals. Collaborative learning has proven to be a practical approach to teaching since it encourages the active participation of learners, provides many valuable and innovative solutions, and enables the development of key competencies. The collaborative workability can be further enhanced through cross-curricular integration, where learners are taught independent learning, information-seeking skills and critical thinking. In the school context, combining digital competencies, collaborative learning, and cross-curricular integration is key to preparing students for life in the modern world. This research presents an example of developing digital competencies in technology engineering lessons. The example above is offered in three stages and covers a period of ten school lessons. In addition to digital competencies, students are developing other competencies that will benefit their daily lives. Research is aimed at teachers who want to build digital competencies in their students through experiential learning, collaborative work, and cross-curricular integration, as well as prepare them for future challenges. Keywords: digital competences, digital literacy, cross-curricular approaches, cooperative learning, technology and engineering learning, technology and engineering literacy

This paper starts from the premise that research into how producers negotiate issues of diversity and multicultural content in Europe is rare and mostly relies on interviews and documents, and furthermore work on understanding those negotiation processes in relation to children’s screen content is even rarer. The article seeks to reflect critically on an alternative hybrid research method, which aims to open up a space for dialogue about production processes and was applied in three workshops about children’s content and forced migration that the authors ran with content creators and broadcasters of children’s screen content in 2017–2018.

The complete virtualisation of the educational experience, driven by health control regulations during the 2020 academic year, radically transformed the everyday learning practices of university students. This sudden change put the usual ways of learning under strain, implying a significant adjustment in traditional educational practices and an increased demand for cybercultural competences. In the university context, these competences involve students' ability to navigate complex digital environments, to understand and evaluate online information, to participate in virtual communities in an ethical and safe manner, and to use digital tools for communication, collaboration and content creation. This paper presents the results of an investigation into cybercultural competences in students at the National University of Córdoba, offering a diagnosis of the perception that students have of the types and levels of these competences during the period 2021-2022. Using statistical techniques of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, a valid data collection instrument is developed for the characterisation and measurement of students' self-perceived cybercultural competences. As a final result, a reliable and useful tool is offered to obtain indicators of five dimensions: content production, participation in social networks, collaborative work, ideology and ethics, and risk prevention.Traducción al inglés del resumen. La virtualización completa de la experiencia educativa, impulsada por las normas de control sanitario durante el año lectivo 2020, transformó radicalmente las prácticas cotidianas de aprendizaje de los estudiantes universitarios. Este cambio repentino puso en tensión las formas habituales de aprender, lo que implicó un ajuste significativo en las prácticas educativas tradicionales y una mayor demanda de competencias ciberculturales. En el contexto universitario, estas competencias implican la capacidad del estudiantado para desenvolverse en entornos digitales complejos, comprender y evaluar la información en línea, participar en comunidades virtuales de manera ética y segura, y utilizar herramientas digitales para la comunicación, la colaboración y la creación de contenidos. En este trabajo se presentan los resultados de una investigación sobre competencias ciberculturales en estudiantes de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, ofreciendo un diagnóstico sobre la percepción que el alumnado posee sobre los tipos y niveles de estas competencias durante el período 2021-2022. Mediante técnicas estadísticas de análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio se desarrolla un instrumento de recolección de datos válido para la caracterización y medición de las competencias ciberculturales autopercibidas del estudiantado. Como resultado final se ofrece una herramienta confiable y útil para obtener indicadores de cinco dimensiones: producción de contenidos, participación en redes sociales, trabajo colaborativo, ideología y ética, y prevención de riesgos.

In the current higher education system, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) play an important role. For this reason, it is necessary that educational institutions promote teachers'' training on the use of ICT in all educational tasks, and specifically in the creation of multimedia learning materials. These multimedia resources are essential for the application of learning active methodologies and for the development of distant learning programs. In this work, we analyse the answers to satisfaction surveys completed by the teachers that had attended training courses on these topics. These surveys, together with the in situ observations of the authors of this work and the opinions of students who have participated in the creation of educational materials, have motivated the development of the model OCEDiCo to design Open Course Ware courses focused on the use of ICT to create learning digital materials. This model takes into account the teachers'' demands and the specific characteristics of their working context (institutional training, ICT tools availability, etc.) to collect resources and activities that guide them in a progressive and personalised way. Following this model, the course "Support materials for the creation of multimedia educational content" has been implemented.\n\nEn el actual sistema de educación superior las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) juegan un papel importante. Por ello, es necesario que las instituciones educativas promuevan la formación del profesorado sobre el uso de las TIC en todas las tareas educativas, y específicamente en la creación de materiales didácticos multimedia. Estos recursos multimedia son esenciales para la aplicación de metodologías activas de aprendizaje y para el desarrollo de programas de aprendizaje a distancia. En este trabajo analizamos las respuestas a las encuestas de satisfacción realizadas por los docentes que han asistido a cursos de formación sobre estos temas. Estas encuestas, junto con las observaciones in situ de los autores de este trabajo y las opiniones de los estudiantes que han participado en la creación de materiales educativos, han motivado el desarrollo del modelo OCEDiCo para diseñar cursos Open Course Ware centrados en el uso de las TIC. para crear materiales digitales de aprendizaje. Este modelo tiene en cuenta las demandas de los docentes y las características específicas de su contexto laboral (formación institucional, disponibilidad de herramientas TIC, etc.) para recoger recursos y actividades que les orienten de forma progresiva y personalizada. Siguiendo este modelo se ha implementado el curso “Materiales de apoyo a la creación de contenidos educativos multimedia”.

Intersectionality is useful as both a theoretical framework and tool for practical analysis. This is particularly the case in the experiences of minority women holding multiple minoritised identities and interacting with power structures that have historically and contextually marginalised them. This chapter considers the self-representation of Sámi wom*n through colonial legacies of forced assimilation and lasting colonial gender dynamics; their engagement with environmental activism through decolonial representations; and the development of inter-Sami and inter-indigenous solidarity. Through an in-depth discourse analysis on three Sámi wom*n content creators on Instagram, the analysis shows how they utilise the digital realm towards self-representation and cultural survival while challenging dominant and mainstream narratives about their culture. This contribution aims to show how intersectionality can provide a critical framework to connect digital self-representation and minority identity. Ultimately, it aims to capture the digital processes of identity production in intersectional terms, namely in relation to minority and indigenous identity(ies), representation, discourse, and power.

Background: Concerns about health inequalities experienced by people with intellectual disability (ID) have led to many health information materials being created in an “Easy Read” format. This study aimed to understand the practices involved in making information accessible. Methods: Individual, pair and group interviews were conducted involving people with and without ID based in non-profit organisations, academic, and health service settings. Thematic analysis addressed the creation of Easy Read health resources, the format and content of the texts, and how producers imagine the texts are received by potential audiences. Results: Little consensus emerged of the best way to produce Easy Read health information. Lacking systematic feedback, participants described imagined audiences and contexts for their reception. Conclusions: Production of Easy Read resources has become widespread despite current limited evidence of impact. Interactions between social groups involved in the production process and the wider policy and legislative context contribute to this situation.

The Cupola Furnace Capacity of 450 kilograms per hour was designed and fabricated using locally sourced raw materials which include pig irons, crop ends and foundry shop returns, and ferroalloys for the production of quality cast iron which depends on the customer's demand. Metallurgical coke is the main fuel source employed for the production processes. The design parameters were analyzed and the metallic shells were then fabricated into four sections to allow proper lining. A mild 5 mm thick steel sheet was collected, marked out according to the required specification. slit and formed into cylindrical shapes. The sections were coupled and joined together through a welding process. Sodium silicate was used as a binder to make them bondable to the interior sections; the internal configurations were first lined with asbestos sheets measured 5 mm thick. With a less dense insulating refractory material. Fireclay refractory bricks were used for furnishing as they directly interfaced with the molten metal, while the flame blower was connected, assembled, and erected in the different segments. Financial analysis was performed to give a general overview of the cost of manufacturing and building a cupola furnace produced locally at N1, 467,266.00, which is relatively cheap compared to the imported ones. The technical details were given for the production processes. The raw materials used were sourced locally as they are readily available in quantum and are essential to the government policies on adding values to the production processes by using these materials to promote the addition of these materials for the creation of local content.

This tutorial session addresses issues of multimedia and co-creation in a wiki environment, using Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons as an example. Did you know that while English Wikipedia has over 4 million articles, only 0.1% of them have video? In 2013, the Wiki Makes Video project was started by Andrew Lih to encourage more content creation. It was designed to further the work of earlier projects such as Lights Camera Wiki and Kaltura's open source collaborative editor work that had been started before 2010, but has stalled in recent years. We demonstrate the challenges and best practices for creation within a collaborative community, and how this project has used the idea of video as an analog to programming that originally spurred the development of wikis in the 1990s. Topics include: • Measuring the quantity and quality of in Wikipedia's articles • How better can be generated by contributors through teaching visual literacy using patterns • Overview of open technical standards being employed in Wikimedia Commons, and how to use them • Researching and transcoding content from existing repositories (Internet Archive, Library of Congress, et al) • What barriers to participation might be, and how to encourage more visual content

This paper explores the collaborative potential between humans and generative artificial intelligence in creative contexts through a co-creation framework. The study uses ChatGPT to develop narrative elements such as slogans, taglines, and claims for university marketing programs, comparing human-generated and artificial intelligence-generated content to evaluate effectiveness and engagement. Results indicate that while artificial intelligence can contribute useful and creative content, human participants still prefer human-generated narratives in many instances. The study also highlights how generative artificial intelligence can enhance creative processes by accelerating ideation and reducing cognitive load, but it raises concerns regarding the originality and diversity of artificial intelligence-generated content. This research provides insights into the integration of artificial intelligence in collaborative creative work and suggests best practices for leveraging artificial intelligence tools in marketing and communication strategies.

The Rise of Skywalker.Among the interviewees featured in the report was Thomas Manglitz, co-founder of the fan-run museum 1 Stars of the Galaxy in M€ onchengladbach, Germany (hereafter SOTG).Housed in a former indoor swimming pool vacated by the city, SOTG displays production materials and merchandise from a variety of science fiction productions.However, the vast majority of the amateur museum's displays are dedicated to the Star Wars franchise, ranging from action figures to LEGO sets, replicas, and collectible figurines.Because of this focus, SOTG has become a popular destination for local and regional press, as well as fellow fans, to interview Manglitz about Star Wars, including the history of the films, the success of the franchise's merchandise, its fan community, and the story behind the museum itself.Although Manglitz himself frames the project as a hobby without any economic agenda in such reports, the curatorial work of the fans behind SOTG should not be considered as mere leisure.Rather, following Mel Stanfill's plea to study fan practices and projects through a labor framework and "ask who benefits from these activities" (131), fan curating should be acknowledged as a form of work that creates cultural and economic value for different agents.

This paper is a reflection by one of the founding members of the IVSA (International Visual Sociology Association) about the events, ideas, social trends and revolutions within sociology that contributed to development of visual sociology. In 2016 the IVSA entered its 34th year and the author has been a participant in the organization for its full duration. The paper details the importance of documentary photography in the early era of visual sociology. During this era key papers by Howard Becker contributed to the intellectual movement’s original intellectual definition and created a pedagogical model that has served as a model for teaching visual sociology to this day. Moving from visual sociology as a method based on black and white photography, the discipline embraced and developed collaborative methods including photo elicitation and photovoice. A parallel track of visual sociology focused on the analysis of the visual dimension of society, drawing on semiotics and cultural studies. More recently visual sociology has begun to explore the rapidly changing meaning and social function of photographic imagery, as cameras and images have become ubiquitous in the cell phone era.

This study examines Europeana, a European cultural heritage data aggregator. The purpose of this study is to explore the Europeana platform and its relationship in a broader field.

A qualitative approach used in this study is descriptive methods and direct observation to Europeana website, alongside with literature review was conducted for the data retrieval technique. The research found that Europeana experienced a significance in the development and has several objectives, but more importantly emphasized more on creation, production and distribution process of digital heritage content in Europe. As a result, Europeana has a significant effect on cultural heritage sustainability through work closely with digitization to present the tacit knowledge in the public sphere and preserve cultural heritage object.

This study aims to describe the hegemonic relationship between Jang Hansol and the other who initiate superiority and mimicry issues on the Korea Reomit channel. Jang Hansol's popularity clearly complements the hegemonic discourse of Korean colonialism in Indonesia, as obviously seen in the form of hybrid culture. The importance of this research lies in the absence of previous studies that examined the relationship between the colonized and the colonizer on YouTube. The researcher sees the presence of binary opposition between Jang Hansol and three content creators who play a role in their respective areas of subordination. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method by dissected three collaborative videos between Jang Hansol and Jerome Polin Sijabat, Alphiandi, and Natya Shina. It is readily apparent that the three videos serve as Jang Hansol's colonial strategy in maintaining his power as the superior while at the same time subjugating the position of the colonized. The findings show two hegemonic relations. First, the hierarchical relation shows that the colonizer expresses speech through native languages to strengthen his position as superior. Second, conflicting relations of the other show that the attempts to imitate the colonizer only produce imperfect imitation. These two relations show the Korean hegemony that has been built between Jang Hansol and the other along the surgin Korean Wave.
