ResumoEste artigo investiga a participação da audiência ativa e crítica na construção e repasse de notícias no âmbito das instituições públicas, com foco no conteúdo produzido pela Assessoria de Comunicação da Reitoria do Instituto Federal de Pernambuco. Foram usados estudos de MATOS (2012), FAUSTO NETO (2016); RECUERO, BASTO E ZAGO (2015); e SHIRKY (2014). A equipe de profissionais envolvida no processo foi entrevistada, explorando o envolvimento do público na produção de conteúdo para as redes. Postagens no Facebook e Instagram foram analisadas para identificar exemplos de colaboração externa. Descobriu-se que a participação do público é tímida, mas ela existe e é incentivada pela instituição. A pesquisa também conclui que o IFPE investe numa comunicação que contribui para a promoção de espaços públicos de debates transparentes, que estimulam a prática da cidadania e fortalecem a democracia.Palavras-chaveJornalismo; Comunicação Pública; Audiência Ativa; Redes Sociais; IFPE.AbstractThis article investigates the participation of active and critical audience in the construction and transfer of news in the scope of public institutions, focusing on the production by Communication Advisory of Instituto Federal de Pernambuco.

This work analyzes the impact of the outbreak of hemorrhagic fever caused by the Ebola virus in Spain in the field of communication. The communication of such a crisis entails an interaction of information between individuals and institutions. Accuracy in the messages that are disseminated is key to the good resolution of the crisis. In this case of the Ebola crisis the impact in the Spanish media was very remarkable not only of the evolution of the crisis but also of the public information that were being made known by the authorities. The errors committed in this public communication, especially in the first institutional appearance, will be analyzed and possible solutions will be provided for future crises. In addition, the information behavior that was given in social networks by the authorities will be analyzed. To perform this work, bibliographical sources, data analysis and the media have been used.

Networked media are increasingly pervading public spaces and influencing the way we behave in public. Australian municipalities and cultural institutions have begun deploying free Wi-Fi services hoping they will attract more visitors to public places, aid in curated events, galvanize communities and enhance local economies. In this article we present multi-method research aimed at understanding whether such services can enhance public space and culture, and hence contribute to the public good. We identify multiple forms of positive use which certain kinds of ‘user-centric' services enable. However, many public institutions face problems to do with funding, network models and choice of place which prevent the actualization of these positive outcomes. We consider how e-planning can be mobilized to help such institutions develop virtuous networked public spaces.

Cultural heritage professionals are becoming increasingly concerned about the lack of care being taken by municipalities for their cultural heritage objects which include works of art in public places. They have therefore begun to ask the public to help take care of “their” cultural heritage through so-called public participation projects. Cultural heritage professionals tacitly assume that if they “teach” the public to treasure such objects of “their” heritage, the public will become more proactive in helping to conserve them. However, research being conducted by the authors is showing that a majority of the general public often has a completely different awareness and/or feeling about cultural heritage objects in their neighborhoods than the cultural heritage professionals think they have, or think they should have. Three recent case studies carried out by the authors show that these differences are most noticeable during so-called “value moments” at the beginning and at the perceived end of an object’s life. These are the two moments when decisions are made, usually by cultural heritage professionals, to place an object in a neighborhood or have it significantly changed or removed, often to the surprise and disagreement of the residents. Between these two moments lay many moments when an object is taken for granted, grudgingly accepted, or not even noticed. Given the fact that cultural heritage professionals often make the ultimate decisions and do not always consider or outright ignore public opinion, it should not be surprising that there is an increasingly negative public perception of what they do. The results of the case studies illustrate the need for professionals to consider and accept as valid, public feelings about cultural heritage objects in their neighborhoods.

One of the main goals of the MEMOLA research project's open-area excavation at Pago del Jarafí (Lanteira, Granada, Spain) was to promote knowledge socialisation by means of imparting information and public participation. The site, a multi-phased rural settlement with cemeteries of different chronologies and cultural affinities, was subject to a complete 3D photogrammetric survey, a tool serving to develop virtual models both to interpret the excavation and subsequently transmit the results to the public – so as to raise their level of engagement - via social networks and websites. Burials, in particular, are features that attract the local population to the site and arouse both a demand for information and site preservation. 3D modelling of the burials is thus a digital resource bearing a high scientific and social potential when integrated in a strategy reaching beyond the technical aspects. This paper therefore considers the 3D modelling of burials as an innovative form of digital public mortuary archaeology.

The design of successful public spaces is not merely a simple stylistic problem, but also a reflection on the social circumstances of a certain era, an architectural answer to the demands of society (Shields 1986). By following the continuous change in public spaces, we can observe a particular slice of history. This study is an investigation of the changing roles of two very different types of public spaces common in Hungary: the new urban squares of the '50s and the centres built in the '70s for public institutions. The study accomplishes this primarily by analysing them within their different contexts. The conclusion of this study is that public squares built in the communist period can meet contemporary space use demands in different ways. However these square types’ problems have great differences in scale and nature, during their renewals the deep knowledge of their history is essential. This is the precondition to creation public spaces that are intimately linked to the venue (and its spirit and history), even if we use fashinable designing tools.

This commentary demonstrates the relevance of James Carey’s ritual view of communication for the field of science communication. A ritual view of communication invites examination of the geographical, historical, and material dimensions of communication where dialogues, bodies, public spaces, and comestibles provide enabling conditions for democratic engagement. This is an opportune time for science communications scholars to engage with Carey’s ideas as the field moves from deficit accounts of communication to the dialogic and cultural models that have become more prevalent in recent decades. A ritual view highlights the importance of theoretical, humanist approaches as complements to empirical, instrumental accounts of science communication.

Although much work has been done by scientists in developing communications to non-scientist audiences, much less attention has been given by them to the ways in which those messages are interpreted. Here, I look at the published work that examines the issue. I focus on three contexts in particular: debates over the triple vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella, the impacts of the Soufrière Hills volcano on the inhabitants of the island of Montserrat and the public communication of the results of climate change research. Several common themes emerge. The most important conclusions are that scientists communicating with the public need to develop their methods deliberatively, involving their target audiences; and that they need to avoid undue dependence on traditional media and public authorities for such communication, and to develop multiple channels to those audiences, including Internet-based and more traditional social networks. Their approach to communicating uncertainty should depend on the context but, except in some extreme emergencies, transparency is generally a virtue. Above all, they need to persist in such public engagements even when the going is rough and extends over long periods. They need support in doing so.

This study aims to analyze how public space can be a representation of public pride and its contribution as a medium of public communication. The selection of Serus City public space locus research which is objectively the Capital of Banten Province is expected to be a representation and role model for cities with ideal public spaces. The method used is a qualitative approach. The technique carried out by researchers is a survey of academic literature in the field of public policy and communication in order to obtain concepts that are relevant to research. The technique of collecting data is through searching various sources and literature both from government documents and reporting on print and electronic mass media, journals and books related to public administration and communication. The results of the study indicate that the management of public spaces in Serang City still does not represent pro-public policies, this is a challenge for public policy stakeholders in Serang City in formulating the management of ideal public spaces. The objective condition of Serang City's public space still cannot be a medium of public communication that is able to encourage freedom of thought and egalitarian action in the public sphere.

With the development of social networks and their becoming as the main means of informing citizens about the activities of local, central and European public administration, more and more institutions have synchronized their institutional communication strategy with the functioning mechanisms and characteristics of Social Media. At the same time, in the age of social networks, concepts for authority and control of the public message have been reconfigured, and most public institutions have understood that in Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Youtube, etc.), institutions do not have control over the message, but the essential role in the dissemination and control of the message is played by the online public.
