The Department of History, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, the University of Gadjah Mada in 2015 made a milestone in the development of historiography in Indonesia. They made a bold move to produce a scholar with a documentary film work instead of a thesis. In the future, it is not impossible that this step will soon be followed by other universities in Indonesia. This paper was written in response to these developments. In this digital era-and in the midst of still low interest in reading in Indonesia-emerged the discourse to seek new media for historiography in Indonesia. The film, especially documentary films are seen as new media that match the characteristics of history because of they both present real-life reality. Moreover, Indonesia with the diversity of tribes and culture and history, of course, save a variety of themes that will not run out to be appointed a documentary. Based on that, this paper will discuss the types, forms, and format of the documentary that is suitable and possible to be produced by history students as a substitute for thesis-considering the cost of film production tends to be higher than thesis research. Thus, the film of a documentary a college student, especially a history produces the quality of research and aestheticsKata

This chapter talks about San Francisco-based company Linden Lab who launched Second Life (SL), which is described as an online digital world that is built, shaped, and owned by its participants. It discloses how SL was seen as the next big internet phenomenon and was the focus of attention by investors and media alike for a short period of time. It also explains SL's complex relationship with 'real life', which is defined both by the encoded parameters of the virtual space and by the social and cultural practices of the people who use the platform. The chapter discusses SL as a broad platform that encompassed many cultural constructions and developed a rich and diverse set of religious cultures. It recounts how dozens of Jewish sites across the grid emerged and were created both by individual users and by offline institutions that established SL presences.

This paper refers to a selected fragment in an ethnographic study on children’s subjectivization processes through digital technologies concerning children’s interaction with the digital world and how their different cultural tendencies reflect virtual space. Children’s digital world experiences, and their new media preferences have become an important part of their peer culture. Studies on children’s peer cultures and on the effects of technological devices on human beings commenced in the 1990s within various disciplines, for example, Aarsand studied children’s interest in computer games, while Turkle focused on human-machine relations. During the 2000s, virtual space changed the trajectories of those studies into other fields. However, studies focusing on people’s interaction with technology have rarely been directly related to children’s agency, or the sociology of childhood. Therefore, this research presents a new approach to childhood studies by using traditional concepts with changing perspectives. The main purpose of this study is to reveal how children’s peer cultures and also individual agencies have been shaped through digital technologies including online activities. For this whole study, various techniques were used to analyse children’s interactions with the virtual world by focusing on their opinions regarding technological development in the world. The parts selected for this paper are based on several clips of interviews, the topics of which are: freedom in virtual space in a comparison with real – virtual worlds on the basis of their limit(less)ness; the possible relations between humans and machines; the possibilities of surviving on ‘internetlessness’; children’s relations with online games according to social media preferences, and interaction with virtual spaces in general.

Educational Potential

Computer and video games are a channel of evolution and productivity that is most consumed keeping the notice of scholars through a variety of disciplines. In general, computers and video games were ignored by educators. When educators considered the games, they noticed the social consequences of gambling, ignoring the remarkable educational potential of the game. This article looks at the history of educational research games and argues that the perceptive potential of games has been ignored by educators. Current developments in the game, including interactive stories, authoring tools, and digital world collaboration, suggest powerful new opportunities for educational media. Video games are an important part of improving education through its ability to force players to present realistic simulations of real-life situations. The beginning of the proper use of gaming technologies for education and training and there is no need for scientific and engineering methods to create games not only as a more realistic simulation of the physical world but to provide experience Effective learning. This document illustrates building up to date Integration of educational principles and game design into a dialogue between them and defining games that can be integrated based on design, entertainment, and educational features. The work follows a drawing tray that forms part of the framing definition and after selecting categories of design templates, before focusing on user interaction modes, from a pedagogical point of view, given its relevance to end users

The development of times from time to time was so increasing. Communication technology is one of them who got increased rapidly. This development of communication technology was also certainly in line with the development of human intelligence who got more creative and innovative this day. Social media is a form of media development, that we know them as a “new media”. There is a feature from Line Chat App called Line Open Chat (OC). OC is a group chat feature that made for users to join and reliable with other users who had same interests with anonymously, and one of which is a fans club category. There’s a phenomenon this day that comes from this fan culture in OC, named “roleplay” (RP). RP is a role game in a social media using other’s people characters (usually using an idol’s character). The players usually adapt their activities and life from real life, but in the RP’s world, their entire activities is the life that humans imagine and create for themselves. This phenomenon will form into a virtual community or a network society in a cyberspace, then with times goes by time this phenomenon will referring to a concept of social simulation and create a formation of a new world. This research uses a qualitative case study method.Perkembangan jaman dari masa kemasa semakin meningkat pesat, seperti pada teknologi komunikasi. Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi ini tentunya beriringan dengan perkembangan kecerdasan manusia yang semakin kreatif dan inovatif memanfaatkan media dan teknologinya. Salah satu bentuk perkembangan media tersebut adalah media sosial, yang kini kita kenal dengan sebutan “new media”. Contohnya adalah sebuah fitur dalam aplikasi chating Line, yaitu Line Open Chat (OC). OC adalah salah satu fitur obrolan grup yang dibuat agar para pengguna dapat bergabung dan berinteraksi dengan pengguna lainnya yang memiliki ketertarikan yang sama secara anonim, salah satunya kategorinya adalah fans clubs. Terdapat sebuah fenomena baru yang datangnya dari budaya penggemar ini dalam OC, yaitu roleplay (RP). RP merupakan sebuah permainan peran di media sosial dengan menggunakan karakter orang lain yang biasanya adalah sosok yang diidolakan. Biasanya dalam RP para pemainnya akan mengadaptasi aktifitas dan kehidupannya dari dunia nyata, hanya saja kehidupan ini adalah kehidupan yang dikehendaki dan dibuat sendiri oleh manusia, khususnya dirinya sendiri sebagai pemainnya. Fenomena ini kemudian akan membentuk sebuah komunitas virtual atau network  society dalam cyberspace yang lama kelamaan akan membuat sebuah simulasi sosial yang mengacu pada terbentuknya dunia baru. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif studi kasus.

This study is motivated by moral learning which sometimes makes students bored. Text books or modules that contain moral lessons, make students lazy to read them. Students only get knowledge about the morals of learning through textbooks, modules, from information conveyed by the teacher. Students also do not know the meaning, do not appreciate, and do not know how to apply morals in real life everyday. Moral learning in schools is only normative and dogmatic in nature, so teachers only pay attention to the cognitive aspects, while the psychomotor and affective aspects receive less attention. Novels are one source of moral learning. This is because the figures and settings in the novel can be used as examples and guidelines for students in living moral lives in society.

The following work is a commentary on the article “Digitalization challenges for technogenic civilization” written by Evgeniy Maslanov. The main focus here is on an individual, facing the new experience of digital world as an average user and a researcher at the same time. New technical tools, which have been put into use throughout history of humanity, require continual redefinition by a human being of himself/herself in the world and in multiple professional fields. Nevertheless, one of the most drastic issues in question is whether a virtual personality could be considered as an “extension” of a real life human, or it represents a “digital twin”. With any position accepted, digital systems initiate a certain order of power relations, where digital “footprints” assemble into personal biographies. This fact challenges not only personal privacy, but also existential conti-nuity of humanity. At the level of scientific research, one of the major disputes centers on data collection and its claim for the leading methodological strategy of science today. This study argues that the dispute only illustrates transitional period related to approbation of new data algorithms. Therefore, it is in no way a substitution of theoretical level of science with empirical knowledge. Nevertheless, the issue that caught E. Maslanov’s attention is extremely valuable. The new “big data” tools require competence, which becomes the key factor of adequate methodological improvements and scientific conceptualization.

The first chapter of Hieroglyphic Modernisms exposes the complex history of Western misconceptions of Egyptian writing from antiquity to the present. Hieroglyphs bridge the gap between modern technologies and the ancient past, looking forward to the rise of new media and backward to the dispersal of languages in the mythical moment of the Tower of Babel. The contradictory ways in which hieroglyphs were interpreted in the West come to shape the differing ways that modernist writers and filmmakers understood the relationship between writing, film, and other new media. On the one hand, poets like Ezra Pound and film theorists like Vachel Lindsay and Sergei Eisenstein use the visual languages of China and of Egypt as a more primal or direct alternative to written words. But Freud, Proust, and the later Eisenstein conversely emphasize the phonetic qualities of Egyptian writing, its similarity to alphabetical scripts. The chapter concludes by arguing that even avant-garde invocations of hieroglyphics depend on narrative form through an examination of Hollis Frampton’s experimental film Zorns Lemma.

Spatial Narrative

Ethnohistorians and other scholars have long noted how European colonial texts often concealed the presence and participation of indigenous peoples in New World conquests. This scholarship has examined how European sources (both texts and maps) have denied indigenous history, omitted indigenous presence, elided indigenous agency, and ignored indigenous spaces all while exaggerating their own power and importance. These works provide examples of colonial authors performing these erasures, often as a means to dispossess. What they lack, however, is a systematic means of identifying, locating, and measuring these silences in space and time. This article proposes a spatial history methodology which can make visible, as well as measurable and quantifiable the ways in which indigenous people and spaces have been erased by colonial narratives. It presents two methods for doing this. First, narrative analysis and geovisualization are used to deconstruct the imperial histories found in colonial European sources. Second it combines text with maps to tell a new (spatial) narrative of conquest. This new narrative reconstructs indigenous activity through a variety of digital maps, including ‘mood maps’, indigenous activity maps, and maps of indigenous aid. The resulting spatial narrative shows the Spanish conquest of Peru was never inevitable and was dependent on the constant aid of immense numbers of indigenous people.
