Abstract

O ritmo elevado da utilização das tecnologias e a apropriação dos media de forma transversal e ubíqua permitiram a propagação de vários termos que se generalizaram, uma vez que também se propagaram os media e as suas potencialidades. Este fenómeno contemporâneo desafia a comunidade científica a observar e a refletir no sentido de compreender os processos sociais e comunicacionais em curso. A referência aos novos media quase não pode ser dissociada da geração que proporcionou a sua utilização massiva. Assim, neste artigo, reflete-se sobre a apropriação dos novos media e, consequentemente, de ecrãs por indivíduos com idades compreendidas entre os 21 e os 45 anos de idade, e a integração dos artefactos tecnológicos nos variados contextos onde passam o seu tempo: na escola, no espaço familiar e nos períodos de lazer. Apresentam-se os resultados obtidos através da aplicação de um inquérito por questionário no ano letivo de 2011/2012 a 30 alunos do 3º ano da licenciatura em Novas Tecnologias da Comunicação, na unidade curricular de Cibercultura, da Universidade de Aveiro.

This journal utilizes the LOCKSS system to create a distributed archiving system among participating libraries and permits those libraries to create permanent archives of the journal for purposes of preservation and restoration. The publisher perpetually authorizes participants in the LOCKSS system to archive and restore our publication through the LOCKSS System for the benefit of all LOCKSS System participants. Specifically participating libraries may: • Collect and preserve currently accessible materials; • Use material consistent with original license terms; • Provide copies to other LOCKSS appliances for purposes of audit and repair. Fair use of a copyrighted work, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include: 1. the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; 2. the nature of the copyrighted work; 3. the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; & 4. the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors. In accord with these provisions, the OBS journal believes in the vigorous assertion and defense of Fair Use by scholars engaged in academic research, teaching and non-commercial publishing. Thus, we view the inclusion of “quotations” from existing print, visual, audio and audio-visual texts to be appropriate examples of Fair Use, as are reproductions of visual images for the purpose of scholarly analysis. We encourage authors to obtain appropriate permissions to use materials originally produced by others, but do not require such permissions as long as the usage of such materials falls within the boundaries of Fair Use.
