RESUMO O Marco Civil da Internet do Brasil é a primeira legislação do mundo a regular a internet de forma ampla e irrestrita; e respeita os princípios da internet complexa, aberta e sustentável. Define-se assim a problemática deste artigo: de que maneira a Ciência da Informação (CI) se insere no que preconiza o Marco Civil? Este estudo apresenta referencial teórico sobre o que preconiza o Marco Civil, relacionando-o com a CI, e então introduz dois exemplos de software livre que podem contribuir com a sua efetivação. Conclui que a CI não pode ficar alijada das discussões sobre o Marco, e sugere, para estudos futuros, investigações que reflitam sobre o design de ambientes digitais em que estão depositadas informações para acesso, e sua relação com o que reza o Marco Civil da Internet.Palavras-chave: Informação e Tecnologia; Web 2.0; AtoM; Archivematica; Design da Informação.ABSTRACT The Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet is the first legislation in the world to regulate the Internet broadly and non-restrictively; and it respects the principles of complex, sustainable, open Internet. The research problem of this article is: how is Information Science (IS) contemplated in the legal recommendations? This study presents a theoretical framework on what the Civil Rights Framework advocates, relating it to IS, and then presents two examples of open software that can contribute to its operationalization. The study concludes that IS cannot be excluded from the discussions on the Framework and suggests, for further studies, investigations that reflect on the design of digital environments in which information is deposited and its relation to the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet.Keywords: Information and Technology; Web 2.0; AtoM;Archivematica; Information Design.

In 2001 Tim Berners-Lee revealed to the world what he wanted for the future of Web - man and machine working together to develop complex tasks, and that the Web could leverage the way human knowledge is acquired. Since then researchers from different fields of knowledge have engaged in scientific and empirical research to make this dream come true. In this context, the research problem of this article is established: What is the current situation of Semantic Web research in Brazil in Information Science? Who are the researchers of this theme in our country? What are the institutions that support these studies? The present study aimed at listing the most productive authors, institutions that support their research and the specific issues of their investigations. We conducted a literature review in Base de Dados Referencial de Artigos de Periódicos em Ciência da Informação (BRAPCI). We retrieved 41 articles, excluded five for not belonging to Brazilian authors and Brazilian institutions. From the analysis of this corpus, we realized the need to include additional keywords to better understanding of specific studies encompassed by the theme. Thus, we included the keywords: SPARQL, SKOS, RDF and ontology. It was concluded that the studies on the Semantic Web under the aegis of Information Science mostly perform theoretical and philosophical studies, while the computer science professionals seek practical applications of the topic. It was also concluded that a study including other databases could reveal other authors and institutions relevant to the subject of study.

A key element of the technology is that it allows people to create, share, collaborate, and communicate. The Web 2.0 differs from ordinary websites as it does not require any web design or publishing skills to participate, making it easy for people to create and publish or communicate their work to the world. The nature of this technology makes it an easy and popular way to communicate information to either a select group of people or to a much wider audience. The Web 2.0 paradigm has gained substantial momentum in the last decade. The influence of Web 2.0 principles and technologies has fueled an explosion of information and media content on the web, and individual and corporate adoption of the technologies continues to rise. In this milieu, it is imperative to understand and learn about the present and evolving Web 2.0 tools and their application in different walks of life. The proposed study made an endeavor to dig deep into the genesis, development, and application of various Web 2.0 tools in library and information science.

Maximum Grip

The Internet is an important innovation in information science and technology and profoundly affects people in their daily lives. To date, these effects have been construed in overly individualistic ways and often all too negatively. For example, the Internet is seen by many as an individual means for obtaining or sending information flexibly and efficiently (e.g., Dreyfus, 2001). Some researchers also claim that participation on the Internet often leads to feelings of isolation and depression and even negatively affects relationships with one’s family members and friends (Kraut et al., 1998; cf. Kraut et al., 2002; UCLA Internet Report, 2003). Likewise, Dreyfus (2001) takes a generally pessimistic tone with regard to Internet usage and worries that when we engage the Internet, it “diminishes one’s sense of reality and of the meaning in one’s life” and “…we might…lose some of our crucial capacities: our ability to make sense of things so as to distinguish the relevant from the irrelevant, our sense of the seriousness of success and failure that is necessary for learning, and our need to get a maximum grip on the world that gives us our sense of the reality of things.”

The World Wide Web is known as the “universe of network-accessible information, the embodiment of human knowledge” (W3C, 1999). Internet-based knowledge management aims to use the Internet as the world wide environment for knowledge publishing, searching, sharing, reusing, and integration, and to support collaboration and decision making. However, knowledge on the Internet is buried in documents. Most of the documents are written in languages for human readers. The knowledge contained therein cannot be easily accessed by computer programs such as knowledge management systems. In order to make the Internet “machine readable,” information extraction from Web pages becomes a crucial research problem.

Digital Law

On Congressional approval in 2014, Brazil’s charter of civil rights for the Internet, the Marco Civil da Internet, was widely acclaimed as a template for national Internet policy elsewhere in the world. This was the result of a phenomenon I dub “draft once; deploy everywhere,” a pervasive belief in the universality of Internet law. This presumption underpins multiple charters of Internet rights drafted by digital rights organizations and policymakers. By showing how the Marco Civil was bitterly contested by blocks of powerful actors, the role played by Brazil’s recent history of dictatorship as well as its status at the margins of the global digital economy, I problematize the Marco Civil’s status as a global blueprint. This matters because without proper contextualization, the effective transfer of Internet law across national jurisdictions will be harder to realize, and their democratic virtues will prove more elusive.

Since 2004 the term “Web 2.0” has generated a revolution on the World Wide Web and it has developed new ideas, services, application to improve and facilitate communications through the web. Technologies associated with the second-generation of the World Wide Web enable virtually anyone to share their data, documents, observations, and opinions on the Internet. The serious applications of Web 2.0 are sparse and this paper assesses its use in the context of applications, reflections, and collaborative spatial decision-making based on Web generations and in a particular Web 2.0.

This article aims to explore whether or not digital space assumes the role of the spatial urban grid when movement of people is restricted under quarantine. The era of Web 2.0 and the increasingly easy access to mobile devices and the internet has created alternative virtual space for urban socio-spatial interactions. The article addresses these concepts in three parts. First, it adapts a theoretical framework that can address the emerging digital public and spatial restrictions. Second, it explores the possible inflation of digital space. Third, it questions the possibility of transfer of spatiality into virtual space. The finding shows significant inflation of digital space after quarantine, but no significant spatial characteristic can be identified among those interactions. The study emphasizes the importance of adapting existing theories for evolving urban challenges.

O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar aspectos cognitivos de Design da Informação que devem ser considerados no projeto e concepção de ambientes digitais e-Saúde, levando em consideração os graus de literacia em saúde das comunidades a quem se destinam. Assim, as características da e-Saúde, as relações entre saúde e tecnologia e os estudos em Design da Informação voltados à temática são relacionados, em convergência com a Ciência da Informação. O fornecimento de informação em saúde, tanto em meios analógicos quanto digitais, não significa necessariamente uma mudança nos hábitos de autocuidado e prevenção, devido aos diferentes graus de literacia em saúde das pessoas que as acessam. Há aspectos e características específicas na disponibilização de informações em saúde na Web que devem ser levados em consideração no Design de ambientes e-Saúde. Esse tipo de informação deve ser apresentado e representado de acordo com critérios e diretrizes especificamente voltados a esses ambientes, que são provenientes de estudos que consideram a carga cognitiva e o grau de literacia em saúde necessários para o processamento de determinados formatos de informação no processo comunicacional nesse contexto. Determinados fatores, como a ausência de jargões e formato do texto, emprego de recursos gráficos na apresentação e representação da informação e modalidades audiovisuais exigem menor esforço cognitivo no processamento da informação, sendo, assim, mais adequados a pessoas com diferentes níveis de literacia em saúde. Assim, apresenta-se como resultado um mapa conceitual com recomendações voltadas aos conteúdos textuais e gráficos para o Design de Informação de ambientes e-Saúde.*****The purpose of this paper is to investigate cognitive aspects of Information Design that should be considered in the design of eHealth environments, taking into account the degrees of health literacy of the communities to which they are intended. The characteristics of eHealth, the relationships between health and technology and the studies in Information Design related to the thematic area related, in convergence with Information Science. The provision of health information in both analogue and digital media does not necessarily mean a change in self-care and prevention habits due to the different degrees of health literacy of the people who access it. There are specific aspects in the provision of health information on the Web that should be taken into account in the Design of eHealth environments. This type of information must be presented and represented according to criteria and guidelines specifically geared to these environments, which are derived from studies that consider the cognitive load and degree of health literacy required for the processing of certain information formats in the communicational process in this context. Certain factors, such as the lack of jargon and the format of the text, the use of graphic resources in the presentation and representation of information and audio-visual modalities require less cognitive effort in information processing and are therefore more appropriate for people with different levels of health literacy. We present as a result of a conceptual map with recommendations focused on the textual and graphic contents for the Information Design of eHealth environments.

Twenty-first century technologies, in particular the Internet and Web 2.0 applications, have transformed the practice of writing and exposed it to interactivity. One interactive method that has received a lot of critical attention is blogging. The authors sought to understand more fully whom young bloggers both invoked in their blogging (their idealized, intentional audience) and whom they addressed (whom they actually blogged to, following interactive posts). They studied the complete, yearlong blog histories of fifteen fifth-graders, with an eye toward understanding how these students constructed audiences and modified them, according to feedback they received from teachers as well as peers and adults from around the world. The authors found that these students, who had rarely or never blogged before, were much more likely to respond to distant teachers, pre-service teachers, and graduate students than to their own classroom teachers or peers from their immediate classroom. The bloggers invoked/addressed their audiences differently too, depending on the roles that they had created for their audiences and themselves. The authors explore how and why this came to be the case with young writers.
