"ETHICS BY MOVIE". AN ALTERNATIVE ETHICS TRAINING METHOD FOR FUTURE PROFESSIONALS. A PILOT STUDY AMONG ROMANIAN STUDENTS

Author(s): Daniela-Tatiana Agheorghiesei,Vladimir Poroch / Language(s): English / Issue: 53/2016

The paper presents the results of an empirical research that explored the opinion of Romanian students from four different professional Master’s Degree programs, on the impact of applying the method that we have called “Ethics by Movie” (creating the students’ own video scenarios on an ethical topic in teams) on substantiating ethical knowledge, ethical attitude and ethical behavior. The final sample consisted of 395 respondents. The students appreciate several advantages of the above mentioned teaching and learning method (”an ideal practice for understanding a theoretical concept”, ”an interactive method of learning” that helped them ”to acquire ethical concepts more easily or to reflect more deeply on the importance which must be given to ethical behavior, on the consequences of unethical behavior”, etc). Our study might prove to be useful due to the fact that it revives attention to a complementary teaching method that can contribute to increasing awareness of the ethical issues around us, to learning ethical concepts in a more substantiated manner, to the need to solve the ethical dilemmas related to the fact that we must be solidarity in the fight against unethical actions and that, through everything we do, we can send out own ethical message.

"Informacija" i teorija komunikacije - Bilješke za buduću povijest tog koncepta

Author(s): Hanno Hardt / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 01/1987

A historical analysis of the concept of information, within communication theory, begin with its determining as a historical framework, a socio-cultural context for the study of media and communication; information as knowledge, and communication as the integration and transformation of the different segments of society. Information is defined as a form of practical knowledge in the process of change and the realization of a democratic society. With the stressing of a scientific, empirical, analysis of society the scientific status of information is getting stronger. Such an approach relies on the model patterns of analysis with a stress on cybcrnetical and mathematical problems. More ambitious, globally directed approaches connect this approach with general system theory. A fundamental limitation of this model conception of information manifests itself in the production of distorted images of social reality and of complex human interaction.

The conclusion is that efforts to improve the image of Ukraine, will not be productive without a real change in Ukrainian reality.

"Простите, я никак не могу понять": способы реагирования на непонимание во взаимодействии человека и робота

Author(s): Andrei Korbut / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 3/2018

The article discusses how the non-understanding that arises during human-robot interaction is managed. The focus is on the ways humans respond to the open expression of non-understanding by robots, as well as of non-understanding that the robot itself does not “realize.” The methodological framework of the research is an ethnomethodological conversation analysis that presupposes the identification of the ways of producing local social order in the sequences of actions. By analyzing the conversations between callers and robot (it is actually a chatbot, but official term for it is “robot”) in a Russian telephone information service, I show that, instead of non-understanding being a negative phenomenon consisting in lack of understanding, non-understanding is a situational and coordinated achievement of the participants in the interaction. The article identifies two types of conditions of non-understanding between human and robot: institutional (related to the specific organizational context in which the interaction takes place and which is produced in it) and interactional (related to the organization of interaction). Based on a detailed analysis of transcripts of human-robot telephone conversations, five ways of responding to non-understandings are distinguished: changes in the acoustic characteristics of utterances (raising the voice level, slowing down, expanding pauses, etc.); expanding the initial statement (for example, by introducing explanatory words); reducing utterances to “key” words; ignoring non-understanding; and adding explanations. At the same time, people not only react to the non-understanding by the robot after its occurrence but also actively anticipate it, building their turns in a way understandable to the robot.

#domovina, czyli hashtagowanie ojczyzny

Author(s): Ewa Wróblewska-Trochimiuk / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 1/2017

Hashtags, originally introduced in Internet Relay Chat, then popularized in Twitter, have become the most used way to tag short messages in social networks. They are also used on Instagram since this facilitates searching, classification and clustering over visual materials. The text focuses on the hashtag domovina (homeland) and shows how Croatian users of Instagram understand and visualize the idea of homeland. I distinguished main strategies of understanding of homeland: by connecting it with national symbols, confession, landscape, cuisine and – unexpectedly – selfie. I find that Instagram group using the hashtag domovina is a new type of political community. In the last part of the text I state that images containing tag domovina create the thematic collection and that they form a new type of image that I called modern polyptych.

#tropy#feminizm

Author(s): Agata Szuba / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 1 (25)/2018

The contemporary media message can be perceived in two perspectives: an active one, in which women perform a role of journalists and editors, and a passive perspective, in which they become a part of media message. The latter aspect is the most controversial for many reasons. Walter Lippmann defines a stereotype as an image created in the mind which allows a subordination of a certain fragment of reality a priori. The media’s visible, negative influence on women has them create a reality beyond the boundaries of acceptance, presenting it in a way the audience expects. A new kind of feminism appears, i.e. one which answers the receiver’s needs (succumbing to the expectations and exposing to the view), and a question appears – whether in the time of the feminist legacy, thereby changes resulting from the development of the media, feminists should gain their own unique style? In a way this begins to happen. Due to the development of the media, women gained an unrestricted possibility to express their views, and the reception and availability of the media lifts the restrictions and causes an inconspicuous person to please and sweep the crowd and his or her voice to be impossible to be ignored in the discourse.

(In)Communication chronophage : esquisse d’une microdystopie de l'accélération en réseaux

Author(s): Antonio Fernández Vicente / Language(s): French / Issue: 02/2016

This paper studies the techno culture of acceleration from a sociological and genealogical perspective. It is a question of micro-power that transforms the social network Utopia into an autorestrainted Dystopia. The synchronisation with the others leads us to a communication flux 24/7. Therefore, the right to communicate throughout the social network becomes a horizontal implied must in order to join in the multiples conversations in real time. The permanent actualisation becomes a necessity and the user a time consumer. In a society where time is accelerated, communication turns structurally into incommunication.

(In)formování sociálních systémů

Author(s): Miloš Vítek / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 2/2013

The original orientation of Systems Engineering on hard technological systems is still prevailing. But an advanced respect to a design and redesign of sociocultural systems is necessary. The notion of the social system is well known since the 20th century from excellent works of Parsons, Luhmann, Habermas, Bourdieu, Foucault, etc. The contribution selects some fundamental ideas on social systems from philosophy and sociology of modernity for the purposes of an up-to-date Systems Engineering and it shows their incorporation in significant system studies on design of sociocultural systems in the Czech Republic. This is thesis of the 45th Conference on Systems Engineering (SYSIN 2014).

(MULTI)MEDIA LITERACY – PERSPECTIVES IN SERBIA

Author(s): Dejan Pralica / Language(s): English / Issue: 02/2016

The aim of this paper is to analyze the effects of media literacy in Serbia five years after "The Strategy for the Development of the Public Information System in the Republic of Serbia" came into force. Among other things, the "Strategy" proclaimed the introduction of new ICTs in order to contribute to better informing and education for children and youth. "Medijska koalicija" ("Media coalition") and US Agency for International Development (USAID), with the help of Serbian Ministry of Education and Science, started the project in order to encourage and support the democratization of the society via promotion of media literacy and responsible journalism in the Republic of Serbia. The target groups of the project were both teachers and secondary school students, as well as journalists. The project resulted in many seminars as well as a web-site which provide permanent support for the establishment of critical understanding of media messages using the most up-to-date learning models such as webinars and other multimedia tools.

Author(s): Sahin Inanç,H. Kemal Sezen / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 3/2017

As a part of their simulation work, random numbers are usually generated by computers. The purpose of this work is to test and verify the randomness of the so-called random generator so that it can be used in simulation runs. Additionally, in this study, the acquisition of the number of ? before the randomness tests were mentioned. In this study it is performed that how this calculation method is used, how to divide the calculation into mathematically simpler components, how to program it with the computer program, and how to calculate it as simple as the desired step. In this study, the first 10000 steps of the ? number were obtained and the randomness test was performed with five different randomness tests. The series is made up after the comma next steps of the number of ?. A program in the C # programming language was developed to investigate the randomness of this sequence. The chi-square test, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the poker test, the gap test and the run test were applied to test the randomness.

1957-2007: 50 Years of Higher Order Programming Languages

Author(s): Alen Lovrencic,Mario Konecki,Tihomir Orehovacki / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2009

Fifty years ago one of the greatest breakthroughs in computer programming and in the history of computers happened – the appearance of FORTRAN, the first higher-order programming language. From that time until now hundreds of programming languages were invented, different programming paradigms were defined, all with the main goal to make computer programming easier and closer to as many people as possible. Many battles were fought among scientists as well as among developers around concepts of programming, programming languages and paradigms. It can be said that programming paradigms and programming languages were very often a trigger for many changes and improvements in computer science as well as in computer industry. Definitely, computer programming is one of the cornerstones of computer science. Today there are many tools that give a help in the process of programming, but there is still a programming tasks that can be solved only manually. Therefore, programming is still one of the most creative parts of interaction with computers. Programmers should chose programming language in accordance to task they have to solve, but very often, they chose it in accordance to their personal preferences, their beliefs and many other subjective reasons. Nevertheless, the market of programming languages can be merciless to languages as history was merciless to some people, even whole nations. Programming languages and developers get born, live and die leaving more or less tracks and successors, and not always the best survives. The history of programming languages is closely connected to the history of computers and computer science itself. Every single thing from one of them has its reflexions onto the other. This paper gives a short overview of last fifty years of computer programming and computer programming languages, but also gives many ideas that influenced other aspects of computer science. Particularly, programming paradigms are described, their intentions and goals, as well as the most of the significant languages of all paradigms.

21.YÜZYIL SOKAKLARINDA OPTİK YANSIMALAR

Author(s): Nazik Çelik Yilmaz / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 32/2019

Optical Art or Op-Art in short is an art movement that emerged in the 1960s. It aimed to create eye illusions and depth by using geometric shapes and lines. Although mainly black and white colors are used, the works are generally abstract. It is one of the striking movements in 20th century. The opt art effect seen almost in every field of life has also found reflections on streets. Optical effects have begun to take their place in architecture and street arts and have become a popular part of street arts since the 80s. This art was brought to the streets by important artists such as Edgar Mueller, Julian Beever, Kurt Wenners. Three-dimensional perfect illusions are seen in the works produced. 3D art is called art of pavements or anamorphic painting. Anamorphosis, which was an early Renaissance art concept, was originally used to decorate the magnificent cathedral ceilings. For the last 30 years, however, contemporary artists such as Kurt Wenner and Julian Beever have used the anamorphic painting to make flat surfaces such as sidewalks and streets three-dimensional. 3D art or the art of pavements is an art where three-dimensional illusions appear, the streets are used as canvases and it has taken its place within street arts. In the study, the movement of optical art is examined, 3D, anamorphic studies are examined and its place and effect within street arts is discussed.

3D documentation in archaeological fieldwork: a case study from the site of Metsamor

Author(s): Otto Bagi / Language(s): English / Issue: XXVI/2017

Three-dimensional recording techniques, although growing rapidly in efficiency and applicability for archaeologists, have still not been turned to full account, mainly because they require for the most part expensive equipment and know-how. In this respect, photogrammetry is unique, being relatively cheap and easy to use. The joint Armenian–Polish archaeological project in Metsamor drew on the possibilities of this technology, which is relatively new to archaeological proceedings, in the daily recording system used at the site. The following article discusses the step-by-step application of photogrammetry in field documentation and its positive impact on archaeological work, Metsamor being taken as a case in point.

3D KARAKTER MODELLEMESİ VE ANİMASYONU AŞAMALARI

Author(s): Can Sahin / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 55/2019

Technological developments, the computer and the products offered on the Digital Platform and the number of people using them are continuously increased. The power and impact of design are more effective in daily life than in the past, and their impact on individuals and societies is sharpening. Other materials, such as the computer we use in digital environments, should be considered as tools that help the designer to demonstrate their creative skills in the environments that they create. When a well thought-out idea is being digitized, the subject may become unwarranted due to the lack of technical skills, inability to dominate the technical equipment to be used, and the lack of cultural and ethical skills. It is important to note that the creative thinking and idea development of the work is also essential in the study area. Those who possess the power of technology and design can reach people and societies in different geographies to the extent they can control the rapid growth of this system. All people in every age group can be loaded with instantly accessible systems, especially with cartoon technology and desired cultural elements. We aim to consciously consume the individuals and societies with their analytical ideas about their own values.
