The present study examines a sample of 220 pieces of news related to human evolution, written in Spanish and published over a period of two years, both in digital and print media. The aim of this study is to assess the rigour and coherence of the information in the news in our sample with the scientific knowledge on the Theory of Evolution. To this end, errors and the incorrect use of concepts related to Biological Evolution are identified; classified according to criteria resulting from the review of previous studies and finally, the frequency of errors identified in news published in print media is compared with that identified in digital media. The results presented allow us to highlight the significantly high frequency of errors in the news analysed and the most frequent error categories. Results are discussed within the frame of the important role of dissemination of information played by scientific journalism in the processes of knowledge dissemination, in this case, related to human evolution

As If

AbstractFew studies outside Translation Studies examine the presence and role of translation in the social media landscape, particularly beyond the “big” players (e.g., Facebook; Twitter)—as if the exchange of content occurs seamlessly in these inherently multilingual and multicultural contexts. This study examines a distinct social platform (“Zooniverse”) that links academe and citizen scientists. The chapter examines how and to what effect translation is mobilized to produce and disseminate (scientific) knowledge on social platforms/social media. This research builds on previous work investigating the motivations of volunteer translators in citizen science, but it is distinct in its methodology: instead of examining volunteer motivations, the focus is on the presence (or lack thereof), as well as the role(s) and effect(s) of translation in relation to linguistic representation, knowledge production, and knowledge dissemination.

Education Today

This study aimed to answer whether digital devices replace print media in education in Indonesia's digital era. Systematic studies and experts' findings can get a basic understanding of print media that can be replaced by digital media in education today and in the future. For this reason, the researchers have attempted to collect literature and publications related to this theme. Then it analyzes critically to prove whether our hypothesis is accepted or rejected. For example, the way we research seeks to understand the question's theme and matches the findings of several publications that we target from 2010 to 2020. Data sources come from Google Scholar, ERIC publications, and other search engines. This analytical process involves coding systems, content evaluation, in-depth interpretation, and concluding to obtain findings characterized by validity and trustworthiness. The results reveal that slowly the role of electronic media has begun to take over paper media. However, with the condition of Indonesian education in general, the role of print media continues to dominate the world of Indonesian education today, especially in remote areas of the country where modern educational facilities are not yet supported. Therefore, this finding is useful for policymakers and further study in a similar field.
