A citizen science approach(CEUR-WS.org, 2019-01-14) García-Peñalvo, F. J.; García-Holgado, A.WYRED project has the aim to give the voice to young people to allow them express themselves about how they understand the role of technology in their lives and the society they live. To do that a methodology and a technological ecosystem have been defined and delivered. The way in which WYRED asks the opinion to the young people is through a citizen science approach, thus young people must participate in international social dialogues and develop research projects that reflect their assumptions and opinions about the digital society. WYRED outcomes should transfer the insights of these activities to the decision-makers for future actionsItem WP3 – Platform - WYRED Istanbul meeting(WYRED Consortium, 2018-11-19) García-Holgado, A.The WYRED (netWorked Youth Research for Empowerment in the Digital society) project has celebrated its fifth face-to-face meeting in Istanbul (Turkey) from November 19th–21st. This represents the work done by USAL partner regarding the WP3 (WYRED Platform and the Technological Ecosystem).Item WYRED Platform, the ecosystem for the young people(Grupo GRIAL, 2018-07-18) García-Peñalvo, F. J.; García-Holgado, A.The WYRED Platform is a technological ecosystem developed as part of WYRED (netWorked Youth Research for Empowerment in the Digital society), a European Project funded by the Horizon2020 programme. As society changes, there is a need to understand how it is changing, to explore what is going on. The young people have a key role to play in our society. They are frequently the drivers of new behaviours and understandings, and since they are part of the future society their views and perceptions should be considered. However, they are not well represented and their voices are unheard, and this makes it hard for re-search and policy to identify and understand their needs. The aim of the WYRED Platform is to provide the tools to support dialogue and research processes in which children and young people can express and explore the key issues that they consider as important. To design it, different stakeholders were involved, and several questionnaires and social dialogues were carried out. The WYRED Platform is organized in multicultural and interdisciplinary commu-nities where young people can develop research projects with the support of facilita-tors from different European institutions and associations. The communities have different tools such as forums to establish dialogues and coordinate research cycles, calendars to share dates and organize events or activities, surveys to develop or evalu-ate the projects, a version control system for files to support the documentation gen-erated during the research processes. Also, it provides a tool to publish the results of the research projects. One of its main innovations is the strongly commitment to user privacy, it is de-signed as a safe space in which children and young people can be free to express themselves as they wish. Moreover, it design is centred around and driven by children and young people.Item Presentation of the paper “Usability test of WYRED Platform” in HCII 2018(Grupo GRIAL, 2018-07-18) García-Holgado, A.This is the presentation of the paper entitled “Usability test of WYRED Platform” in the Learning and Collaboration Technologies session at the HCI International 2018 Conference, held in Las Vegas, USA, 15 - 20 July 2018. WYRED (netWorked Youth Research for Empowerment in the Digital society) is a European H2020 Project that aims to provide a framework for research in which children and young people can express and explore their perspectives and interests in relation to digital society, but also a platform from which they can communicate their perspectives to other stakeholders effectively through innovative engagement processes. It will do this by implementing a generative research cycle involving networking, dialogue, participatory research and interpretation phases centered around and driven by children and young people, out of which a diverse range of outputs, critical perspectives and other insights will emerge to inform policy and decision-making in relation to children and young people’s needs in relation to digital society. The WYRED Platform is already developed, but the target group, young people, should accept it to ensure project aims. This paper presents the usability test done to evolve the Platform.Item WYRED Platform. New features(Grupo GRIAL, 2018-06-18) García-Holgado, A.; García-Peñalvo, F.
