  • Ico Mel How Gamers Experience Informal Digital Learning of English
    Ico Mel How Gamers Experience Informal Digital Learning of English Within Video Games and Online Affinity Spaces Master’s Thesis FACULTY OF EDUCATION Learning, Education, and Technology 2021 University of Oulu Faculty of Education How Gamers Experience Informal Digital Learning of English Within Video Games and Online Affinity Spaces Master’s thesis, 54 pages, 6 appendices June 2021 This study aims to investigate how English language learning occurs within the experiences of playing online video games and interacting in related online affinity spaces. Although there have been past studies that have researched language learning in video games, both in formal and informal contexts, none have specifically explored how players experience language learn- ing in both online video games and online affinity spaces. This study used the concepts of informal learning, implicit learning, informal language learning, informal digital learning of English, affinity spaces, communities of inquiry and communities of practice as a guide for the research process. It also used qualitative content analysis as a method of data analysis. The participants of this study consisted of 6 Finnish males who cur- rently attend upper secondary school in Finland. The data was gathered via semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that most participants experienced English language learning through play- ing video games incidentally and unconsciously. Essentially, most participants were unaware of language learning occurring while playing video games, and they did not intend to learn English while playing. Moreover, they learned mostly through interacting with the video game space itself while some also learned through playing with others. In regard to online affinity spaces, most participants learned English incidentally.

NOT JUST A “PLACE FOR FRIENDS”: TEENAGERS, SOCIAL NETWORKS, AND IDENTITY VULNERABILITY by CENATE CASH PRUITT Under the direction of Lesley Reid ABSTRACT This study is an empirical analysis of adolescents' risk management on internet social network sites such as Facebook and MySpace. Using a survey of 935 U.S. adolescents gathered by the Pew Internet and American Life Project, I investigate the influence of offline social networks on online socialization, as well as the impact of parental and self mediation tactics on risky online information-sharing practices. Overall, the relationship between offline social network strength and online communications methods was inconclusive, with results suggesting that most teens use online communications in similar ways, regardless of offline connectedness. Some relationships were discovered between parental and individual mediation tactics and risky online information sharing, largely supporting the use of active mediation techniques by parents and informed control of shared information by individual users.
