STEP2 Modify Resources

1) Modify Images

The package name/res/drawable-xxhdpi folder contains sample images that can be modified using the theme function. Refer to the resources list in the “Check Modifiable Resource” page and replace the image you wish to change with the identical file name. For example, if you wish to change the Splash screen that is displayed when KakaoTalk is executed, then change the thm_general_splash_img.png file shown in the folder above. Leave as-is or delete if there is no image that needs to be changed.

Images that change size depending on the size of the phone or the situation are those categorized as “9-patch” in the recommended type column in the list and requires additional modification. Please refer to the URL below for more information on 9-patch.

  • Executive Summary

    Executive Summary

    Executive Summary Chat apps are quickly becoming the preferred medium for digital communication in some of the world’s fastest-growing markets. Global monthly users of the top four chat apps (WhatsApp, Messenger, WeChat, and Viber) now exceed those of the top four traditional social media networks (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn) (Business Insider Intelligence, 2017). The most popular chat app, WeChat, had 889 million monthly active users as of Q4 2016 (according to Tencent Penguin Intelligence’s 2017 WeChat User Behavior Report [as cited in Brennan, 2017]). Given these radical shifts, the Institute for the Future (IFTF), with support from the Google News Lab, conducted an ethnographic case study of the chat app news media ecosystem in Korea. The goal was to better understand the role chat apps will play in the creation and propagation of news around the world, highlighting key challenges and opportunities for newsrooms and journalists. Our study focuses primarily on KakaoTalk, the most popular chat app in South Korea. South Korea has the fastest internet speed in the world (averaging 28.6 Mbps in the first quarter of 2017 [Akamai, 2017]), the highest smartphone ownership rates in the world (Hana, 2016), free access to global media and internet, and high saturation of both indigenous (KakaoTalk) and foreign chat apps, making the country a good indicator where news media are headed both in the region and around the world. We found three key insights for journalists and newsrooms to consider: 1. MILLIONS OF ORDINARY PEOPLE ARE DRIVING THE FLOW OF NEWS THROUGH CHAT APPS, FURTHER EVOLVING THE INFORMATION ECOSYSTEM IN THE DIGITAL WORLD: The flow of information today within chat apps is similar to a massive, virtual version of the children’s game of telephone, in which individuals whisper messages to each other one by one, the final message inevitably differing significantly from the original.

  • Private Status Sharing and Sender-Controlled Notifications In

    Private Status Sharing and Sender-Controlled Notifications In

    I Share, You Care: Private Status Sharing and Sender-Controlled Notifications in Mobile Instant Messaging 34 HYUNSUNG CHO, KAIST, Republic of Korea JINYOUNG OH, KAIST, Republic of Korea JUHO KIM, KAIST, Republic of Korea SUNG-JU LEE, KAIST, Republic of Korea While mobile instant messaging (MIM) facilitates ubiquitous interpersonal communication, its constant connectivity could build the expectation of an immediate response to messages, and its notifications flood could cause interruptions at inopportune moments. We examine two design concepts for MIM—private status sharing and sender-controlled notifications—that aim to lower the pressure for an immediate reply and reduce unnecessary interruptions by untimely notifications. Private status sharing reactively reveals a customized status with a selected partner(s) only when the partner has sent a message. Sender-controlled notifications give senders the control of choosing whether to send a notification for their own messages. We built MyButler, an Android app prototype that instantiates these two concepts and integrated it with KakaoTalk, a commercial MIM app. During a two-week field study with 11 pairs (5 couples and 6 friend pairs), participants expressed themselves through a total of 210 different statuses, 64.3% of which indicated the current activity or task ofthe user. Participants reported that private status sharing enabled them to explain their unavailability and relieved the pressure and expectations for timely attendance. We reveal more findings on the types of privately shared statuses and their roles in MIM communication; the in-situ behaviors and patterns of using sender-controlled notifications; and the motivations of MIM users in choosing whether to alert their messages.

    KakaoTalk meets the Ministry of Education: Mobile Learning in South Korean Higher Education Keywords South Korea, mobile learning, higher education, smart learning, seamless learning, Asia Pacific, mobile media, TEL, ICT, digital education, KakaoTalk, texting, lifelong learning Author Dr. Michael S. GALLAGHER, University College London, [email protected] He is Assistant Professor at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul, South Korea and Director of Panoply Digital, a consultancy dedicated to mobile for development (M4D). His research focus is on mapping the effects of mobility and mobile technology on open spaces, built environments, and urban spaces to support practice in the humanities in higher education, particularly in the Asia Pacific region. Abstract Mobile learning in South Korean higher education is bound in problematic tension between a top-down model of smart learning in the formal space and the sophisticated use of mobile technology and social media in the informal space, use that directly affects the nature and structure of formal disciplinary participation. The aim of this chapter is to explore this tension by providing an overview of the state of mobile technology use in higher education in South Korea, and how that use is in part governed by the informal mobile cultures and practices that have arisen amidst domestically produced mobile technology and mobile applications. Introduction: South Korean Higher Education & Mobile The Republic of Korea (South Korea) presents a rich environment for investigating mobile learning in higher education. It is a nation with a passionate educational legacy evidenced by 67.7% of 25-34 year olds obtaining some form of tertiary education (OECD, 2014) coupled with a robust local mobile industry, evidenced by mobile manufacturers such as Samsung and a sophisticated domestic mobile ecosystem.
