A Relational Approach To Reducing Uncertainty During A Crisis Through The Use Of Mobile Technology, Nicole A. Merrifield Ms.
A Relational Approach To Reducing Uncertainty During A Crisis Through The Use Of Mobile Technology, Nicole A. Merrifield Ms.
Annual Research Symposium of the College of Communication and Information
It is estimated that six in ten American adults access the Internet using some form of a wireless device (Smith, 2010). In the years ahead, the United States is expected to reach 100 percent mobile phone penetration by 2013 (“Getting to Know the Mobile Population,” 2009). Recognizing that the ability to access the information network at any time and at any place will continue to expand in the near term, it is incumbent upon public relations practitioners to critically examine the opportunity to reduce uncertainty through a variety of digital applications. In this regard, this paper adopts a relational approach …

Knowledge And Attitudes Towards Scientific Data Practices & Preservation Among Turkish Environmental Scientists And Information Scientists, Suzie Allard, Arsev Aydinoglu
Annual Research Symposium of the College of Communication and Information
Climate change is a grand challenge of science whose environmental impact touches societies across the globe (UN, 1987). Challenges such as climate change and related studies such as biodiversity require new approaches to science (Kelling et al., 2009). Scientific research is increasingly becoming more complex (Lynch, 2008), including data-intensive science, which gains new insights through data-driven approaches (Newman, Ellisman & Orcutt, 2003). Grand challenges such as global climate change are studying complex systems (Rind, 1999) that require collaborative and interdisciplinary scientific approaches (Allard & Allard, 2009). We must understand more than simply technical issues; we must also have an understanding …

Annual Research Symposium of the College of Communication and Information
“Collaboration appears to play a unique role in science and science education today,” and serves as a rite of passage for new graduate students that indicates acceptance and achievement in research (Hara et. al. 2003). Collaboration is a crucial skill for faculty and students, helping advance knowledge and exploit the results of research effectively. In this project a group of six new Ph.D. students worked together with one faculty member and one post-doctoral researcher to develop a new course in Environmental Information Science. This poster is a report on the successes and barriers to collaboration encountered during the course of …

Got Game? An Investigation Of Parents’ Understanding Of And Attitudes Toward Advergaming, Nathan Evans
Annual Research Symposium of the College of Communication and Information
To date, limited research has attempted to understand parental perceptions of and attitudes toward Internet advertising directed at children. As part of a larger study, three phases of research were conducted. The first two phases, qualitative interviews with six parents of children seven to eleven and quantitative pretesting with twenty different parents, were exploratory in nature to determine parents’ understanding of the advergaming concept, their awareness of their children’s exposure to advergaming, and finalize an operational definition of advergaming. A self-administered online survey was given to a diverse sample of 214 parents of children ages seven to 11 via E-Rewards.com, …

Exploring The Lived Experiences Of Online Worshipers, Matthew B. Broaddus
Annual Research Symposium of the College of Communication and Information
This ongoing qualitative study uses long interviews to seek to understand the lived experiences of individuals who participate in online church services. Online church has rapidly grown in the past few years and many Americans have participated in, or are willing to participate in, alternatives to traditional worship. Many churches are adopting online formats as a way to address the interest of individuals in alternative worship experiences. This study seeks to understand how individuals use online worship and how it plays into their spiritual lives.

Nevada 2.0: New Economies for a Sustainable Future was held on January 7, 2011, to explore opportunities to diversify Nevada’s economy by examining similar efforts in nearby states. It included presentations by guest speakers from Salt Lake City, Denver, Phoenix, and Dallas, as well as interactive panel discussions with Nevada business and political leaders to hone in on the next steps Nevada should take to move forward on new business expansion. For years, Nevadans have understood the need to diversify the state’s economy beyond tourism, construction, and mining. Yet, Nevada enjoyed an extended boom from simply enlarging its base economy. …
