Content

  • 電視媒體
    • 電視媒體的單向性
      • Thompson 1): 電視被認為一種單向的、非互動性的媒體,而觀眾能做的有限。
        Television has received an unfair assessment in the realm of interactive media. It is often considered anti-social, escapist, and only “quasi-interactive,” meaning it is limited in how much users, or in TV’s case viewers, can contribute (Thompson, 1995).
    • 電視媒體的社會性
      • 成為美國家庭的核心角色
        In a short amount of time, television began to play a central role in American homes (Huston et al., 1992)
      • 前晚電視節目內容,成為辦公室飲水器旁的談話主題。
        Last night’s television programming became a regular topic of conversation around the office water-cooler (Nathan et al., 1991).
    • 電視媒體互動性:
      • 1940s 電子火爐 “electronic hearth” as early as the 1940s (Tichi, 1991).
      • (Nathan, Harrison, Yarosh, & Terveen, 20082)).
      • 觀眾投票
      • 利用網際網絡的線上互動工具,如問答、投票、留言功能
