“…This recruiting-talented-people orientation is partly achieved by a clear indication on the event webpage, which helps contextualize the nature of the event and the role of the participants. Recent research studies have generally noted that the online communities a person has participated in can affect that person's imagined audiences, and hence self-expression (Chan, 2006(Chan, , 2010Dahya, 2017;Kedzior & Allen, 2016). The public image of the website helps shape this prior positioning, and such positioning presets the nature of subsequent face-to-face contact.…”

Purpose: Digital storytelling (DST), broadly speaking, is a storytelling method that is interwoven with digital media. It is commonly used in educational settings or human services to support various sorts of social advocacy. While many of these DST practices have devised methods to engage marginalized groups to express their voices, they lack parallel initiatives to enable audiences to understand those voices. This study examined a story-retelling workshop model called StoryAd, which utilizes productions from DST activities to facilitate face-to-face contact. The workshop itself is also a lite version of DST activity. Method: A pilot study was conducted in Hong Kong in 2019. Participants enrolled online, met offline, and their advertisement ideas might go online and contribute back to the stories. The workshop model was evaluated using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The participants were 45 Hong Kong Chinese, aged 18-60. Results: Participants' critical thinking disposition, self-esteem, perspective-taking, and curiosity toward new information increased, while their need for cognitive-closure decreased. Discussion and Conclusion: This study has proved the feasibility and acceptability of the workshop model. It also opens the discussion about extending DST pedagogy to engage and influence story-readers.

“…Our earlier work noted various challenges in using community-based media production workshops to scaffold participants' mind-sets-as it is not easy to locate suitable opportunities to implement these recurring scaffolding steps and as media production has become increasingly convenient and individualized in technologically advanced urban areas (Chan, 2003(Chan, , 2006(Chan, , 2008(Chan, , 2010. While individuals can conveniently create media productions, for example, using their mobile phone apps without guidance or teamwork, it is not clear how program facilitators, for example, teachers, social workers, can take part in promoting participant reflections during a structured YMP production process.…”

Purpose: Youth media practice (YMP) refers to various activities through which young people are empowered to express their views and develop critical reflectiveness via media productions. There is scant empirical research about YMP’s effectiveness. This study developed and field-tested an information and communication technology (ICT)–based YMP. Method: By using “My National/Ethnic Identity” as a heuristic production theme, a pilot study was conducted in Hong Kong in 2018. Participants shared and discussed photos online and conducted face-to-face presentations. The program was evaluated using a one-group pretest–posttest design. Participants included ( N = 20) Hong Kong Chinese students aged 18–24. Results: Participants’ need for cognitive closure decreased, self-esteem increased, and their essentialist views on ethnic identity decreased. Discussion: This study demonstrates that YMP has potential to be a change-making strategy for future social work practice, and proper use of ICT can create space and opportunities for such reflective conversations.
