Second Screen Usage

Second Screen Usage at Science Conferences

Project Partners

• Prof. Dr. Monika Taddicken
• Dr. Anne Reif

Description

Second screen usage is increasing. Previous studies mainly refer to parallel TV and Internet usage. In contrast, the role of second screen use in a professional context - especially during presentations at a scientific conference - is examined in this project. As a student project, a survey and observations were conducted during the annual conference of the communication science division "Digital Communication" in Braunschweig, Germany. The results were presented at the annual meeting of the division in Erfurt, Germany in 2018.
