  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • Annual Evaluation Report 2007-2008
    Improving the Lives of Children 0-5 First 5 Commission of San Diego County Annual Evaluation Report 2007-2008 October 2008 his report brought together the efforts of those touched by First 5 San Diego, such as its contractors, the families it serves and community stakeholders in a profoundly collaborative process. Contractors were T often required to expand their view of evaluation from program-specific to initiative-level. The willingness of Commission contractors to see themselves as part of a larger system working to improve services for young children and their families made this evaluation possible. We hope that they have also benefited from seeing themselves as part of a “learning community.” Families and stakeholders took time out of their busy schedules to answer questions of themselves and their families, as well as reflected on the impacts First 5 San Diego may have had in their lives and the community. These conversations took place in the form of focus groups, surveys, interviews, and case studies. Without these individuals, understanding the impact of the Commission’s work – both in numbers and in personal stories – would not have been possible. In particular, Harder+Company Community Research would like to thank the following people: The Commissioners of the First 5 Commission of San Diego County for their commitment to positively affect the lives of children ages 0-5 years in this county: Ron Roberts (Chair 2007), Greg Cox (Chair 2008), Dr. Wilma J. Wooten, Jean Shepard (2007), Nick Macchione (2008), Carol Skiljan, and Charleen Tressler.
