Hinweis: Dieser Kurs ist nur für Studierende der Medienwissenschaft geöffnet und findet in zwei Sections statt. Studierende müssen sich in eine der beiden in ISIS anmelden. Beide Sections haben eine Zulassungsgrenze. Es wird gemeinsame Sessions geben, die am Anfang des Semesters bekannt gegeben werden.

SECTION 1: Schwerpunkt: Informationsvermittlung durch Medien, Misinformation

Zeit: Mo, 10:00-12:00

Ort: H 3006

Dozierende: Prof. Dr. Silvia Westerwick, Prof. Dr. Axel Gelfert

SECTION 2: Schwerpunkt: Human-Computer-Information, LLM Nutzung

Zeit: Mo, 12:00-14:00

Ort: H 3001

Dozierende: Prof. Dr. Silvia Westerwick

Kursbeschreibung:

The seminar offers an introduction to influential theories for the analysis of mediated communication (following on from Seminar Part I from the winter semester).

Module requirements: Seminar participants moderate a (partial) session. This includes the preparation and presentation of six to 15 presentation slides, handouts, or similar based on the text that serves as seminar reading for the session, with key text passages, definitions, and discussion points/questions. A final paper (12-15 pages, 1.5-line spacing) is written after successful completion of BOTH seminars (winter semester & summer semester) in this module.

The module grade results from points achieved in the final paper. The assessment of the paper will be based on an assessment rubric, which reflects class content, to ensure transparent grading expectations and will be transparent. In line with the TU Berlin's teaching mission statement (section on internationalization), students can complete moderations, presentations, and final papers in either German or English.

Kursbeschreibung:

„Online Experiments" vermittelt Masterstudierenden das wesentliche Wissen und die praktischen Fähigkeiten, um Experimente auf webbasierten Plattformen durchzuführen. Der Kurs verbindet die Diskussion theoretischer Grundlagen mit praktischen Übungseinheiten und vermittelt den Studierenden ein umfassendes Verständnis der besonderen Möglichkeiten und Herausforderungen, die Online-Forschungsumgebungen bieten.

Zu Beginn werden die grundlegenden Prinzipien des Experimentaldesigns erarbeitet und untersucht, wie sich diese auf den Online-Kontext übertragen lassen, einschließlich Fragen der Stichprobenziehung, Rekrutierung von Teilnehmenden, Datenqualität und Forschungsethik. In Gruppen entwickeln und realisieren die Studierenden ein eigenes Mini-Experiment. Dabei werden Fähigkeiten wie die Gestaltung effektiver Stimuli, das Verfassen klarer Instruktionen für Teilnehmende sowie die Implementierung von Aufmerksamkeitschecks und Ausschlusskriterien geübt, um die Erhebung relevanter und valider Daten sicherzustellen. Die Studierenden sammeln praktische Erfahrungen mit gängigen Plattformen und Tools zur Erstellung von Online-Experimenten und werden in die Analyse und Interpretation von eigenen gesammelten Daten eingeführt.

Durch die Anwendung der erlernten Prinzipien auf eigene kleinere Projekte entwickeln die Studierenden Kompetenzen für jeden Schritt des experimentellen Forschungsprozesses: von der ersten Idee bis zum abschließenden Bericht.

Kursbeschreibung:

In modern societies, social media became an important part in people’s lives. Mediated communication research suggests that they change how people communicate, entertain themselves, participate in social activities, develop their identity, built relationships, how and what they consume, what they believe, and much more.

Recently, another significant change began: AI is assumed to conquer social media and with that, changing many aspects of media use. We already see some of the consequences and how powerful it might become in many different areas: There are virtual influencers; fashion models in astonishing appearances, almost out of this world; new electrifying songs on TikTok from musicians that don’t exist, created from sound bits of the world’s greatest hits of the past; AI videos of naked superstars or the hated ex-friend; advertisement notifications the moment I am starting to think about a purchase; my look-alike pretending to act on my behalf; a faked online appearance of my favorite politician suddenly propagating a complete change of their political agenda.

The goal of the class is to learn how a complex system like social media with all its key players, their actions, motivations, and interdependencies is affected by the introduction of a new technological innovation that may have the potential to revolutionize not only our virtual life. Students will gain a better understanding how current mediated communication research and a systemic view on social media can help to make some predictions about those upcoming changes. Based on that, students will be asked to identify and scientifically articulate significant research questions about AI in social media, that are not addressed so far.

Berlin has long been the epicenter of the global techno music scene. Emerging from the city's vibrant underground culture in the late 1980s, the Berlin Techno movement gained international recognition for its raw, hypnotic sound and innovative approach to electronic music and dance cultures. In 2024, UNESCO officially inscribed Berlin Techno on its list of intangible cultural heritage. Unfortunately, much of the historical material related to this culture exists only in analog form, scattered across archives and private collections. Additionally, many historically significant clubs have already closed or are set to close, and important figures are passing away. This situation has motivated the seminar organizers to initiate the digital Berlin Techno Archive, an online platform aimed at providing a comprehensive digital resource on Berlin Techno history for researchers and the interested public. Since this culture is inherently tied to venues with distinct looks and sounds, the archive will also include VR reconstructions of the most important venues.

While the organizers are securing funding and industry partners for this large endeavor, the seminar aims to push forward the project and integrate motivated students. In the second seminar of a series, we will focus on two important clubs: the now-closed Bunker and Johnny Knüppel, which is set to close by the end of 2026. Participants from TU and UdK, with diverse academic backgrounds, will work in collaborative teams to preserve the unique histories, aesthetics, and sounds of these two venues through hands-on historiography techniques. The seminar's expected outcomes include audiovisual hypertext narratives and VR reconstructions, which are planned to be showcased in a public exhibition alongside selected material artifacts. At the same time, the digitized artifacts, narrative histories, and VR-reconstructed venues produced will form the foundation of the future Berlin Techno Archive.

The seminar offers participants the opportunity to enhance their practical skills in digital archaeology, history, and archival work, as well as current audiovisual VR reconstruction techniques for historic venues, while gaining a deeper understanding of the historical and cultural roots of Berlin's club and techno culture. The seminar will be held in English.
