Home Information and Communication Technology Use and Student Academic Performance: Encouraging Results for Uncertain Times.

This study set out to examine the associations of certain information communication technology (ICT) factors in the home environment with academic performance. We employed existing data sets collated by Pearson Clinical Assessment in 2016 which included the WIAT-III A&NZ (Wechsler Individual Achievement Test - Australian and New Zealand Standardised, Third Edition) completed by 714 students aged between 4 and 18 years old, and the home environment questionnaire (HEQ) completed by the parents of those children. Sequential multiple regression models were used to analyze the complex interactions between home ICT factors and measures of student reading, writing, mathematical, and oral ability. The findings of this study indicate that after accounting for the known powerful predictors of household income and parental education: (a) a student’s access to an ICT rich home environment, (b) their aptitude in using home ICT, and (c) their recreational use of home ICT, are largely unrelated to academic performance. We observed some small positive correlations between academic performance and child ICT affinity, but also comparably sized negative associations with use of social media and educational TV viewing. Encouragingly, we propose that these findings suggest that increasing levels of ICT use and access in the home are unlikely to be detrimental to academic progress. These results provide important information for parents and educators given the impact of the Coronavirus global pandemic and the near world-wide adoption of ICT for home-schooling.

The use of social media was reported by 451 (54.1%) students, while TV programs were information sources used by 332 (39.9%) students. The least used information sources were professors, reported by 317 (38.1%) students, and family members, chosen only by 65 (7.8%) participants. Conclusion: Brazilian dental students rely on multiple information sources to stay informed about COVID-19, mainly focusing their information-seeking behavior on governmental and health professional’s websites.

Teacher Candidates’ Views on the Zero Waste Project

This case study was carried out to determine the opinions of prospective science teachers about zero waste project. The study group of the research consists of 67 prospective teachers studying in the science education department at one university in Konya, Turkey. When the research results are examined, it is seen that the awareness of the science teacher candidates about the purpose and scope of the zero waste project is not sufficient. Most of the teacher candidates experience a lack of information about the zero waste project. The teacher candidates, who stated that they did not participate in any scientific activity related to the zero waste project, do not believe that this project has achieved its purpose. The results of the research show that informing about the zero waste project is not enough, many teacher candidates will graduate without having sufficient awareness. As researchers, we think that information about the scope, purpose and implementation steps of the zero waste project should be included more in education curricula, TV programs and scientific activities.

To school through the screens: the use of screen devices to support young children's education and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic

The aim of the current study was to investigate how children in Ireland adapted to the change in schooling, and particularly their use of screen devices to support their learning at home, during a period of lockdown due to the COVID-19 crisis in early 2020. This research draws on data from 506 parents of children aged 1–10 years in Ireland who completed an online survey during lockdown in May and June 2020. Parents responded to a series of questions for the Play and Learning in the Early Years (PLEY) Survey about their child's play, learning and development, including questions about their child's education and use of screen devices for educational purposes. The results indicate that screentime increased for most children during lockdown, and they spent significantly more time on schoolwork if they had access to a computer or laptop. They were also more likely to spend time watching educational TV programmes or playing educational screen-based games if their parent believed screen content had educational value. The findings highlight the impact of lockdown on children's lives both for their education, and how they adapted to schooling at home using screen devices. The implications for education and future research are considered.

Civic activism for community access television in the US state of Maine

For almost five decades Public, Educational and Governmental (PEG) TV has been a staple of US community media, providing a forum for the cablecast of locally made content and the expression of viewpoints unheard and unseen on commercial television. But PEG TV faces existential and other threats in the face of a neo-liberal attrition of non-commercial public arenas, policy deregulation and changes to the media marketplace. In this article, the volunteer-driven advocacy campaign on behalf of PEG TV launched in Maine after one of the cable corporations operating in this state sought to disenfranchise community access television by ‘slamming’ its channels is explored. How the campaign was able to mobilize and win support for its cause, leading to an eventual victory in Maine’s state legislature, is examined. This instance served as an important illustration of a media policy advocacy effort that targeted a US state’s law, rather than federal or local law, as is more commonly the case.

Симулякр в гетерогенном экранном тексте

This article aimed to describe the peculiarities of cooperation between verbal and non-verbal units during the creation of empty signs in the dynamic scope of the heterogeneous screen text. The bulk of the research consists of the polycode multimodal texts of cinematography, television and the Internet. For illustrative material the author turned to the fiction film Life of Pi, the educational TV show Made in Moscow: Doctor’s Sausage and the Instagram vine In Schools All Over the Country. The results of the study showed that in the spatiotemporal continuum of the text, a simulacrum is created as a set of audio-visual signs, which contains designation (unreal or partially real), but lacks the actual denotation. The author comes to the conclusion that a simulacrum is constructed by means of computer technology and involves manipulation of the visual image that is introduced and explained verbally. In addition, the study showed that in a polycode multimodal text the simulacrum can be a nonlinear discontinuous icon and a linear continuous kinemorph, sign-imitation. In the semiosis of sign-imitation we can observe an interpretant, an interpreter, and a partially real/unreal designatum, while the real denotatum is absent. The sign vehicle functions according to the laws of objective reality applicable to the thing it designates, which makes the viewer believe in the existence of the sign-imitation. It differs from the sign-symbol in that the latter bears no formal resemblance to the thing it designates, while the sign-imitation is constructed on the principles of formal and/or ontological resemblance. In conclusion, it is stated that further study on the simulacra in polycode multimodal texts will allow us to gain deeper insights into the process of manipulating viewers’ consciousness in the screen texts of mass culture.

THE INFLUENCE OF MEDIA IN CHILDREN’S LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT

Along with the rise of child-targeted programming became the belief that TV would be a very effective educational tool that could subconsciously or at a subliminal level feed information to the young mind and, with that, vocabulary growth would occur. Much programming was created that dealt with the direct educating of children that tried to create a way of communication with the child as a target. The paper discusses the influence of TV in children’s language development. It investigates the notion that children’s educational TV programs may result in vocabulary learning. It stresses the values of these educational programs, but also emphasizes that TV and other screen media have become a reality of life, and it is wise to utilize them only as a supportive tool for educating children. The interactions of parents co-viewing such programs with their children are necessary to optimize the child’s language learning from TV programs that target children. The paper concludes with the implications of the current research as well as suggestions for further research.

Awareness and knowledge about anterior cruciate ligament injury among the general adult population of Saudi Arabia.

Background:The literature shows that data regarding the Saudi public's knowledge about anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is still limited.Aims:This study aimed to determine the knowledge toward ACL injury in the general population of Saudi Arabia, as well as to investigate the main sources of information about ACL among the public.Materials and Methods:A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among a sample of 408 participants from all regions of Saudi Arabia. All participants completed an anonymous self-administered questionnaire, which included questions about their sociodemographic details and a structured tool to measure their knowledge about ACL injuries.Results:The present study showed that among 408 participants, 233 (57.1%) had adequate knowledge about ACL injuries, and 253 (62.0%) appreciated the seriousness of ACL injuries. The level of knowledge about ACL injuries was significantly associated with higher educational level (P = 0.000), but not with sex (P = 0.424) and region of residence (P = 0.404). Most of the participants agreed that ACL injury is a multi-factorial condition that results from a combination of factors, including sports, lack of warm-up before exercise, car accidents, old age, and lifting heavy objects. Internet, TV, and books were the most common sources of information about ACL injuries.Conclusions:While over half of the participants were aware of ACL injury, its seriousness, and its common risk factors, there are still knowledge gaps regarding ACL injury symptoms. Therefore, we recommend increasing public awareness about ACL injury, specifically through health education websites and TV programs.
