Project n. 6 – WebPage to insert data collected from Immersive Web Environment

About the project

The aim of this project is to develop a web page to publish a video analysis model for Immersive Web Environments (IWE). This model emerged from the analysis of videos of 12th grade students in the science and technology course, who carried out an immersive experience in a Portuguese language class, in an AWI about José Saramago, available at: https://framevr.io/josesaramago.
The students, represented by avatars, carried out activities for 70 minutes in this AWI, about the life and work of the writer and Nobel Prize winner in Portuguese Literature. This experience was recorded in 46 videos of approximately one hour.
A data repository was developed in Microsoft Access and it was decided to develop a web page to disseminate the video analysis model for AWI, in which all researchers have access to complete information about the video analysis model, viewing of stored data and videos.

Project n. 11 – Mapping the Landscape of Women’s Digital Health Literacy Interventions

About the project

The team is currently updating a systematic review focused on women’s digital health literacy interventions, comprehensively mapping how digital health tools and interventions are -directly or indirectly- supporting women’s health and ehealth knowledge and decision-making globally. This project serves dual purposes: it is a critical component of the lead researcher’s doctoral dissertation while also addressing an important gap in the published literature. Their goal is to produce two scholarly publications: a detailed review protocol paper outlining their methodological approach, and a comprehensive scoping review that synthesizes current evidence and identifies emerging trends.

Through this work, they aim to inform the development of more effective and accessible digital health literacy interventions that empower women in their health journeys. They are grateful for the opportunity that the students@digimedia initiative provides in fostering cross-level academic collaboration while advancing meaningful research.

Participants

This project is coordinated by Jennifer Bueno-Rocha (PhD Student), Dalila Martins (PhD Student) and Jo Matos (BSc. Biotechnology).

What do you expect from participating in the initiative?

“I hope to expand knowledge and drive discoveries in this area of ​​research” (Jo)

“I hope to contribute my experience and learn new approaches that are useful for research” (Dalila)

“To create a space for the collective development of new research skills while contributing to the area of ​​women’s health research” (Jennifer)

Project n. 14 – Comunicação Audiovisual do Projeto de Investigação AlmeidAR / Audiovisual Communication of the Research Project AlmeidAR

This project is coordinated by Cátia Silva, a DigiMedia PhD student, with the participation of Inês Barbosa (Master’s student in Design), Constança Parracho and Leonor Rodrigues (students in Multimedia and Communication Technologies).

The project’s research team is producing a video about the AlmeidAR application, aiming to make it accessible and engaging to a broad audience, thereby contributing to the demystification of science communication in scientific research projects.

What do they expect from participating in the initiative?

“To deepen my knowledge of scientific communication, based on the prototype developed during my doctorate, collaborating with undergraduate students with different perspectives” (Cátia Silva).

“I hope to deepen my audiovisual knowledge, establishing a deeper connection with research and autonomous work incorporated in the area of ​​Communication Sciences and Technologies” (Leonor Rodrigues).

“I hope to apply the knowledge I acquired throughout the course in practical and collaborative contexts, while developing my technical and creative skills” (Constança Parracho).
