“…Designing the space, where it is easy for people to collaborate, is important for participatory sense-making support. This leads to the communal property of civic intelligence, as defined by Schuler et al [23]. Each stage builds on work conducted within a UK data literacy initiative, that developed a number of Urban Data Games [24,25] and founded a set of principles to support building data literacy from complex data sets in formal (e.g.…”

SENSEI is an environmental monitoring initiative run by Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT University) and the municipality of Lappeenranta in south-east Finland. The aim was to collaboratively innovate and co-design, develop and deploy civic technologies with local civics to monitor positive and negative issues. These are planned to improve local’s participation to social governance issues in hand. These issues can be e.g. waste related matters like illegal dumping of waste, small vandalism into city properties, alien plant species, but on the other hand nice places to visits too. This publication presents initiatives data literacy facet overview, which is aimed at creating equitable access to information from open data, which in turn is hoped for to increase participants motivation and entrepreneurship like attitude to work with the municipals and the system. This is done by curating environmental datasets to allow participatory sensemaking via exploration, games and reflection, allowing citizens to combine their collective knowledge about the town with the often-complex data. The ultimate aim of this data literacy process is to enhance collective civic actions for the good of the environment, to reduce the resource burden in the municipality level and help citizens to be part of sustainability and environmental monitoring innovation activities. For further research, we suggest follow up studies to consider on similar activities e.g. in specific age groups and to do comparisons on working with different stage holders to pin point most appropriate methods for any specific focus group towards collaborative innovation and co-design of civic technologies deployment.

“…We share a concern with the problems of the democratic public, and we both want to design better solutions that might have an impact in the future. Both of us work with value-driven design and technology development, De Liddo focusing on democratic discussion (De Liddo et al, 2012;Schuler, De Liddo et al, 2018) and Nyre on media design for journalism (Nyre 2014;2020). What follows is a written dialogue based on our initial oral conversation.…”

Scholars should act on the presumption that there are big problems in the public sphere, and that they require long-term research and innovation to be addressed properly. The dying out of local newspapers, the monolithic dominance of big technology companies, and the fake news permeating social media are just a few of the problems that undermine public debate. In particular, media scholars and information scientists must take centre stage in shaping the qualities of emerging media. We must do our best to improve the methods and

“…Several researchers have raised the idea of launching a community focused on collective intelligence (hereafter CI) for the common good over recent years [1]. The challenges and opportunities in applying CI in enterprises are necessary to improve the effectiveness of decision-making or to solve various business issues [1,2]. The possibility of combining CI with existing corporate perspectives, such as rapid decision-making and efficient use of internal resources, has become a key factor in determining future sustainable development.…”

The study aims to identify motivational factors that lead to collective intelligence and understand how these factors relate to each other and to innovation in enterprises. The study used the convenience sampling of corporate employees who use collective intelligence from corporate panel members (n = 1500). Collective intelligence was found to affect work process, operations, and service innovation. When corporate employees work in an environment where collective intelligence (CI) is highly developed, work procedures or efficiency may differ depending on the onset of CI. This raises the importance of CI within an organization and implies the importance of finding means to vitalize CI. This study provides significant implications for corporations utilizing collective intelligence services, such as online communities. Firstly, such corporations vitalize their services by raising the quality of information and knowledge shared in their workplaces; and secondly, contribution motivations that consider the characteristics of knowledge and information contributors require further development.
