“…"I think it is that it is a way of passing on information in an educational way, so indirectly, the information also has to get into the minds of people who go through our social media." -PI4 These findings align with the recent studies that demonstrated a positive impact of social media on social media users' environmental awareness and PEBs (Arts et al, 2022;Mallick & Bajpai, 2019;Shah et al, 2021;Xie & Madni, 2023).…”

Finally, the COVID-19 lockdowns drove PNAs to engage with the experiential function of their social media as they increased their use of images and pictures to counter the lack of exposure to Nature experienced by the French population.…”

This research was carried out in the context of the urgent global challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss. These ecological challenges have led both society and global institutions to consider environmental education as a key element in the transition toward a more sustainable future. At the same time, the digital transformation of organisations and society offers new opportunities to improve education and communication to promote positive environmental behaviours. This study seeks to contribute to mitigating current ecological challenges by strategically using digital advances to improve education and catalyse positive change. This is done by investigating the interplay between the digital practices of organisations and their impact on education for sustainable development.Protected natural areas in France were used as a case study, given their dual significance in conservation and education efforts, coupled with their sensitivity to anthropogenic VIII Contents Table

“…Other publications complement this analysis by focusing on the content of the message, which can examine the appearance of certain keywords [45] or the feelings and emotions evoked in the tweets [46]. Besides the studies purely based on sentiment analysis [29], other works focus on the network generated by the messages [31], on their popularity, or on the engagement they foster [47]. This article grounds the exploration of urban forestry as more-than-human practice through the examination of the contents posted on the official Twitter account of Tokyo's Rinshinomori Park: @ParksRinsi.…”

“…To process an enormous amount of data, scholars frequently apply filters according to geolocation or specific content in the messages. To a lesser extent, there are fewer studies that use a single Twitter thread [48], or the content generated by a reduced number of specialized accounts [47]. Building along this line, the present study is the first that relies on the detailed analysis of the content generated by a single account, contributing with a novel approach to the existing body of research.…”

Urban parks are places that have significant impact on the physical and mental health of citizens, but they are also for safeguarding biodiversity and thus fostering human–nature interactions in the everyday landscape. The exploration of these spaces through social media represents a novel field of research that is contributing to revealing patterns of visitor behavior. However, there is a lack of comparable research from a non-anthropocentric perspective. What if we could use social media as a more-than-human communication medium? This research aims to reveal the possibility of communicating the urban forest’s voice through the examination of the official Twitter account of a metropolitan park in Tokyo. To this end, an analysis of the content of the messages is carried out, focusing on the narrative voice from which the message is told, the protagonists, the action performed, the network of actors deployed, and the place where it occurs. It is found that the majority of these messages are delivered from a non-human perspective, where plants, animals, or meteorological agents behave deploying complex networks of more-than-human interaction. The current study reveals the latent potential of non-humans as possible agents within the realm of social media, which can mediate the relationships between humans and their environment. It introduces a layer that can be incorporated into future lines of research, as well as provides a model case that illustrates a good practice in the management and communication of urban green spaces.

“…The purpose of media is to facilitate communication (Arts et al, 2022;Ansari & Khan, 2020;Chatterjee & Kar, 2020& Mheidly & Fares, 2020. But media can provide students with a visual experience during learning, simplify complex concepts, and embody abstractions.…”

The media industry has a common need for creative men and women who can effectively communicate information and ideas via words and visuals. This study was aimed to found out: whether or not there were an influence of interaction among picture series, motivation and gender toward speaking achievement. Method of this research used quantitative with factorial 2x2x2 design approach. There were 60 students as sample, 30 students for experimental group and 30 students for control group. The sample was taken by using purposive sampling., the data were collected by using speaking test and questionnaires. To verify the hypotheses, the data were analyzed by using three-way ANAVA. Based on the data analysis, the result of three-way ANAVA showed that the interaction between: 1) the experiment and control classes obtained significant values = 0.001 < 0.05, the first hypothesis was acceptable, 2) the male and female genders obtained significant values = 0.367 > 0.05, the second hypothesis cannot be accepted, 3) high and low motivation obtained significant value = 0.085 > 0.05, the third hypothesis is unacceptable, 4) class and gender obtained significant value = 0.820 > 0.05, the fourth hypothesis is not acceptable, 5) class and motivation obtained Significant value = 0.669 > 0.05, then the fifth hypothesis is unacceptable, 6) Gender and motivation obtained Significant value = 0.015 < 0.05, then the sixth hypothesis is acceptable, and 7) the interaction among class, gender and motivation was obtained Significant value = 0.380 > 0.05, the seventh hypothesis was unacceptable. Thus, it could be concluded that there was no interaction between class, gender and motivation for speaking achievement scores.
