Digital Young

In the context of a scientific project, I collaborate as an assistant researcher. It has as theme the nonformal education and its strategies at young people. So, I researched the ways that youngsters – preteens, teens and young adults – learn through ICT’s, learning as a basic process for the appropriation one. So, besides methods like interviews, observation, I used also the method of making videos. The project is not yet finished, but it has a very interesting purpose: projection of a pilot-institution for youngsters, something like a youth center, but just as it should be.

Another research that I talked about in a previous post, when talking about reading practices and ways of purchasing books at youngsters in Bucharest, a mini-study, had a qualitative and quantitative methodology: interviews, observations and questionnaires.

Right now I have two other researches on the way: practices of using spare time (loisir) at young people and practices of coffee consumption. Hope to finish them both very well and to find out interesting things.
