From both social and technical viewpoints it is an important shift in media use, affecting and providing opportunities for content providers, system designers and advertisers alike. Media multitasking may be divided into media multitasking which refers to using several media together and multitasking with media, which consists of combining non- media activities with media use. In this deliverable we review research on multitasking from various disciplines: cognitive psychology, education, human-computer interaction, information science, marketing, media and communication studies, and organizational studies. We review types of multitasking and address multitasking as a human ability, preference and practice. We aim to understand media multitasking by answering questions on ‘who’ multitasks, ‘what’ media and content is multitasked, ‘why' multitasking takes place driven by internal and external factors, ‘how’ multitasking is handled in terms of multitasking strategies, ‘when and where’ people multitask, and to what effects and experience multitasking contributes. Research results suggest that heavy media multitaskers are young, have practice in multitasking and are overall active media users. Working memory capacity and certain personality traits such sensation seeking traits have been shown to affect multitasking and its success. The computer is often at the centre of multitasking activities, while television takes a background role. New tablet devices enable individualizing even shared media experiences. Content modalities may be combined so as to not overlap or to overlap on purpose, heightening media engagement. Media multitasking is driven by external factors such as media accessibility and interactivity, as well as internal gratifications including habitual, affective and social motives. Heavy multitaskers are not necessarily better at multitasking, but those people with a preference for polychromic time use (i.e. doing multiple things at a time), perform better in multiple task situations. Multitasking has become a routine, de facto media consumption mode for many young consumers. People develop multitasking strategies to cope with multitasking demands, creating suitable media combinations, limiting the number of topics, and focusing their attention. Multitasking usually harms task performance but is still perceived as enjoyable due to affective gratification from juggling several tasks, content streams and possibly multiple modalities. We conclude by describing an ideal media multitasking experience as something which 1) settles into media routines and habits, 2) serves affective needs through involvement, 3) balances effective task performance with enjoyment, 4) enables convenient and easy handling of multiple media formats and tasks, 5) increases engagement with media through role and stimuli, 6) gives a heightened sense of control over media, and 7) facilitates combining individualized and shared media experiences. We also offer general guidelines for supporting multitasking through 1) user-controlled and natural task switching, 2) customizable presentation of multiple tasks, 4) optimal combinations of tasks and 4) training needed in order to maximize success in multitasking.

Moreover, it is argued to be a rapidly growing style of consuming media due to societal and technological changes.

  • MDST) Is a Distinct Track Within the Umbrella Phd in Media Research and Practice (MDRP)
    Ph.D. in Media Studies I. Program Overview The PhD in Media Studies (MDST) is a distinct track within the umbrella PhD in Media Research and Practice (MDRP). Drawing largely from contemporary cultural and critical theory, the Media Studies PhD program focuses on interactions among the major components of modern communication — media institutions, their contents and messages, and their audiences or publics — as a process by which cultural meaning is generated. It examines that process on an interdisciplinary basis through social, economic, political, historical, legal/policy/regulatory and international perspectives, with a strong emphasis on issues involving new communication technology and policy. Students graduate from the program with broad knowledge of the intellectual history of media studies as an important interdisciplinary field of research—its origins; its perennial questions and controversies; its evolution in response to technological, political, economic and cultural change; the full range of methods it employs, both humanistic and social scientific – and a demonstrated capacity to design and execute original and socially significant research about media and their historical and contemporary power and importance. The program strives to produce graduates who demonstrate intellectual leadership, nationally and internationally, in the area(s) of research specialization they choose and/or pioneer, and an interest in and aptitude for generating public awareness and conversation about their scholarship.

  • Communication Studies Associate in Arts for Transfer
    COMMUNICATION STUDIES ASSOCIATE IN ARTS FOR TRANSFER The Communication Studies major analyzes processes of communication, commonly defined as the sharing of symbols over distances in space and time. Hence, communication studies encompasses a wide range of topics and contexts ranging from face-to-face conversation to public speeches to mass media outlets such as television broadcasting and film studies. Communication Studies, as a discipline, is also interested in how audiences interpret information from the political, cultural, economic, and social dimensions of speech and language. There are many areas of specialization offered within the Communication Studies majors including Advertising, Public Relations, Journalism, Digital Media, Organizational Communication, Intercultural Communication, Interpersonal Communication, Rhetoric, and Media Studies. Studying communication will also enhance any career, but a few specific careers include business, public relations, human resources, law [after law school], advertising arts, teaching, social services, human services, and entertainment industries are all suited for graduates with a Communication Studies degree. Finally, students who are interested in the field of Communication Studies but do not wish to complete a Baccalaureate degree in the discipline may pursue a terminal two-year course of study. Such study will prepare them to understand diverse communication messages and practice excellent communication skills in a variety of settings. For more information contact: Dr. Amy Edwards (805)
