“…Dane et al (2012) note that in situations when time is short, as for many instances of news exposure, intuition can be an effective alternative to analytical, deliberative forms of decision making. Moreover, while patterns of news use can already be so mundane and interwoven with people's other daily routines that they normally go unnoticed unless prompted to recall (Deuze 2012; Krajina et al 2014), respondents felt that judging the reliability of news sources and content was an even more unconscious process:I think you never really think about it, until you are asked to think about it. When you actually look at all the different sources, it's a lot, and you never really think about it that much.…”

The Trust Gap: Young People's Tactics for Assessing the Reliability of Political News

In theories about journalism's democratic remit, trust is generally regarded as a prerequisite for public connection: only when citizens believe the news, they will engage with it and act upon it to perform their citizenship. Trust seems even more important in today's digital society, where the destabilization of journalism institutions and proliferation of sources make the media ecology increasingly complex to navigate. This paper challenges such conceptualizations of media trust rooted in rationality and deliberateness. Based on two series of semistructured interviews with fifty-five young people from ten nationalities living in the Netherlands, conducted in 2016 and 2017, we develop a taxonomy of people's tactics when assessing the reliability of news. We explore what this means for how they value news and how such judgments, drawing on explicit and tacit knowledge, impact their news use. Rather than critically evaluating news through comparing and checking sources, users often employ more pragmatic shortcuts to approximate the trustworthiness of news, including affective and intuitive tactics rooted in tacit knowledge. Consequently, we argue that to fully understand how users deal with the complexity of trust in digital environments, we should not start from ideals of informed citizenship, but from people's actual practices and experiences instead.

“…Individuals are constantly merging their experiences in the virtual world with experiences in the physical world. Hence, the united experiences can be seen as embodied skills and competencies that bridge the two worlds [38]. In this sense, Minecraft may involve science and sustainability content that crosses the boundary between the virtual world and reality.…”

“…Playing Minecraft involves creating ecosystems by applying scientific knowledge when manipulating digital materials [17]. Furthermore, Deuze [38] suggests that children construct embodied practices that bridge the physical and virtual worlds, developing understanding and creativity. Thus, virtual making, as in Minecraft, has the potential to bridge children's physical and virtual relationships with nature, i.e., Minecraft may have the potential to be a BO between physical and virtual nature.…”

In this exploratory case study, we investigated children’s ways of experiencing virtual worlds, such as Minecraft, and how this may affect their understanding of nature, scientific phenomena, and sustainable development; that is to say, Minecraft was explored as a boundary object in children’s making activities with Minecraft. The research questions that guided the study are: In what ways may Minecraft act as a boundary object between children’s formal and informal learning about science and sustainable development? In what ways may Minecraft act as a boundary object when children build relationships with nature? Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six children. A thematic analysis approach was used to analyze the interviews. This study shows that in the Minecraft context, the children gained a breadth of everyday experiences related to scientific phenomena and sustainability. Further, the findings indicate that children merged their experiences in the virtual world with experiences in the physical world. In this sense, Minecraft involves science and sustainability content that crosses the boundary between the virtual world and reality. Thus, we suggest that Minecraft bridged children’s physical and virtual relationships with nature; that is to say, Minecraft became a boundary object that allowed children to experience nature and encounter knowledge that they would not otherwise have been able to experience.

“…and those involved with reading and interpreting culture (Flew, 2004a(Flew, , 2019Kress, 1997). Finally, the rise of social media and "Web 2.0" gave renewed impetus to these developments, as it enabled social sharing on a global scale, through easy-to-use digital and social media platforms (Deuze, 2012;Hartley, 2012;Jenkins, 2006).…”

“…The implications of these developments for the study of media and communication have been extensively debated (see e.g., Couldry & Hepp, 2017;Deuze, 2012;Hartley, 2012). New academic associations have emerged such as the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR), while there has been a proliferation of sub-fields including social media, digital media, digital cultures, Internet studies, computer-mediated communication, network science, platform studies, mobile media, etc.…”

The Rise, Fall, and Rise Again of Communication as a Disciplinary Signifier in Australia: After the “Cultural Turn” and the “Digital Turn”

Communication as a discipline has a curious double life, being both disavowed in favor of something else, yet remains as a conceptual anchor point for a diverse range of intellectual projects. This argument focuses upon four challenges, or “turns,” that communication as a field has experienced: the “cultural turn” associated with cultural studies; the global turn; the “creative turn”; and the “digital turn” associated with the Internet and social media. It is observed that these have been collectively incorporated into a broadened communication field, and that concepts associated with communication remain relevant to other disciplines and fields.
