1. Working with your media lens of Plato’s cave allegory, reflect on a time when you’ve witnessed people around you treating a new technology as if it were the ‘sun’ from Plato’s cave allegory. What did you notice initially? A few months or years later? 2. Reflect on any line, probe, phrases from the excerpt you read in the Gutenberg Galaxy. 3. Reflect on ways that you see digital technology changing what is often considered a print-dominant culture or how you see new manifestations of orality and literacy manifesting in the ‘global village.’ Or...if you want to critique McLuhan’s idea of the global village, that is an option as well! 4. Reflect on the image posted of American media conglomerates. What stands out to you? 5. Choose a few lines from the Understanding Media reading for this week and write your reflection in response to those lines. Paste them on the top of your page and write about why they stood out to you, what it makes you think about, etc. They could be representing an idea you really like, something that confused you or something you disagreed with. It really doesn’t matter- as long as you are engaging with the ideas represented in the lines you choose. .

This activity, created for MoMA's Art & Activity MOOC, involves students in closely looking at artwork from Post World War I Germany, which they have studied in their world history class. The activity has students looking at artwork in three different group sizes to determine a central idea and to draw conclusions based on prior knowledge, discussion, and personal reflection. Students are engaged as investigating, recording, reporting, and reflecting throughout this activity. The activity relies the following "big question" to frame investigation: Do you think the central idea of this work reflects what you have learned about Post World War I German society?

L. Rodrigues ENGL 1020 Spring 2014 Project I: Analysis To write your Analysis essay for Project 1, please choose from among the following prompts. When composing your essay, be sure that your paragraph offers a summary of the essay(s) you’re analyzing. This opening/ summary paragraph should be followed by a shorter paragraph (3-5 sentences long), containing your Analytical Thesis. 1. Write an analysis of Lam’s “I Tweet, Therefore, I Am” (p. 24) by focusing in on one of his major ideas (e.g., an image or emphasized phrase). Discuss the role that this idea plays in his overall argument. Then, distinguish your own views from his. In order to make this distinction, cite one example from your own experience with social media, news media, instantaneous communication, and/ or any of the platforms Lam mentions in his piece (i.e., YouTube, Facebook, etc.). 2. Write an essay that analyzes how Lam and Hayles frame the effects of new media in different ways. Take care to explain how each writer’s framing of the issue sets up: a.) the claims that they make, b.) the evidence that they present, and c.) the consequences to which they allude. In order to get your point across, be sure to cite from the two articles. In your conclusion, you might consider discussing which perspective (Lam or Hayles) you find most useful. 3. Write an essay that analyzes how Turkle and Gopnik frame the effects of new media. In your essay, consider how Turkle and Gopnik frame how they think about the ways new media are rewiring us. Consider, for example, how Gopnik puts communication media such as the telegraph, books, and telephone into historical perspective; also consider how Turkle discusses communication media such as Twitter, and so on. What does this show about does the perspective of Gopnik’s commentary on Turkle’s book? 4. Presents your own perspective on the issue of whether new media are rewiring us by linking together one main idea from each of the unit’s 4 readings. For this prompt, you will need to first present your own view on this topic, and then support it by examining a major point from each of the writers we’ve read. The task here is to keep a kind of dialogue going between all of these writers (i.e., by extending and linking their ideas) while also articulating your own perspective (i.e., distinguishing your views). 5. Come up with your own prompt! Just be sure to email it to me for approval, or discuss it with me, by Thursday, Jan. 29, 2015. 1000 Words Project 1 is DUE… For Sections 037 & 040: Thurs., Feb. 5 For Sections 035 & 039: Mon., Feb. 9 Please remember to bring your essay saved to a flash drive—No hard copies! ...

What are Altmetrics and what can they do for me? Alternative metrics, or altmetrics, are being rapidly applied in a variety of contexts for the STEM community. They are providing a number of new assessment tools for the research community. However, their application isn't just for academic publishers. There are a variety of ways in which trade, commercial and other publishes can use data to make better decisions, improve their operations, enhance discovery and hopefully improve their bottom line. During this session, we will explore what alt metrics are, how they are derived, and and how they are applied. We will also consider some ways in which data analysis can be applied to the publishing business.

1.What are the main issues facing Fargo and Town Manager Susan Harlow? Fargo and Town Manager Harlow are on a slippery slope to corruption. I think that Harlow is handling her position the correct way by trying to remain neutral and sticking to a code of ethics so the problem really comes down to the political actors in the town. It is good that Harlow declined the invite to the dinner party, and cracked down on employees playing politics at work, that is a step in the right direction to removing the possibility of political corruption. 2.What is the basis for your answer to question #1? At the end of the article Harlow remembers another city manager saying “you never have more authority than the day you walk into your office” What I get from that, and what I think Harlow got from that is that when you come into a position as a public manager everyone is going to want something from you. Political actors are going to want political favors, quid pro quos, you have something that everyone else wants and they are going to try and get that from you. 3.What are your recommended solutions to the problems you identified? I think the best thing to do would be to continue to try to remain neutral. It will always be impossible to please absolutely everybody so the best thing to do is try to avoid doing everything everyone asks and stick to some sort of code of ethics. 4.What points do you agree, disagree or want further discussion from your fellow classmates and why? (tell them not me) I think the overarching theme of this article is that people are going to want things from the government. I agree with Harlow's steps to avoid political corruption in her administration by cracking down on political favors with the snow plows and referring to the ICMA code of ethics. .

1. Writing: Practice in Reading a Photograph Attached Files: Bachman, Ieshia Evans, Baton Rouge (2016).jpg (277.283 KB) For this assignment, you will practice analyzing how various rhetorical elements contribute to the overall meaning of a visual image--in this case, a photograph. To begin, click on the attached image. By way of some context, this photo was taken in 2016 at a protest rally in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The woman in the photo is named Ieshia Evans. The photographer is named Jonathan Bachman. Bachman's photo, which was first published by Reuters, was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize in 2017. You can use this information to do more research on the image, if you like. Now, review once again the Elements and Methods of Visual Rhetoric document and select from it three elements that you wish to discuss in relation to this photo. Please note that this is not a formal essay assignment, so do not treat it as such. For example, you do not need to create a formal introduction. Begin by simply providing an interpretive claim --i.e., stating what you believe is the meaning or message of Bachman's photo. Ideally, this should be just one sentence (tho you can write two if necessary). After that, your document simply needs to contain three paragraphs , one for each rhetorical element you have selected. In each paragraph, you need to explain fully how the particular element contributes to the overall meaning or message of the image. Note: Your assignment must be submitted as an attached .doc or .docx file. Name your file correctly, using your last name and brief description of assignment (e.g., Martinez, Photograph.docx). 2. DB: Interpreting Political Ads In this discussion board, you will be discussing and interpreting a recent political ad entitled "Mourning in America," which was produced by The Lincoln Project, a political action committee (PAC). If you are not familiar with the group, take a moment to research it, as that context will add to your understanding and interpretation. You can click here to view the ad. As you watch "Mourning in America", think carefully about how this political advertisement compares and contrasts with Ronald Reagan's "Morning in America" ad, in terms of its rhetorical methods as well as its overall message. You will be asked to comment on three specific rhetorical elements, so decide which ones stand out most to you and take careful notes on those to prepare for the discussion. When you are ready, click the link above to enter the Discussion Board, and then follow the instructions in the first thread posted in this forum for responding to this material. Questions:- Mourning in America COLLAPSE Your task here is to share with your peers your ideas on how three specific rhetorical elements or your choosing are used in this ad to make its appeal to an audience and to convey a message. 1. Identity the three rhetorical elements that you have selected and then explain how each .

1.The following clause was added to the Food and Drug Act: “the Secretary [of the Food and Drug Administration] shall not approve for use in food any chemical additive found to induce cancer in man, or, after tests, found to induce cancer in animals.” After this clause was adopted, no new additives could be approved for use in food if they caused cancer in people or animals. The public loved this and industry hated it. What do you think of this clause? Do you support it or do you oppose it? At the top of your post, please indicate SUPPORT or OPPOSE and then give your rationale. Then after you can view your classmates' posts, make your case to your fellow students. 2.There was a law that individuals who were indigent and who wished to litigate could apply to the courts for a total waiver of the normal filing fee. In the legislative session, however, a statute was enacted which limits the courts' authority to waive filing fees in lawsuits brought by prisoners against the state government. Under this new law, a court has to require the prisoner to pay a filing fee "equal to 20 percent ... of the average monthly deposits made to the prisoner's [prison] account ... or the average balance in that account", whichever is greater (unless this calculation yields a figure larger than the normal filing fee). A prisoner (who was indigent) wanted to appeal his case and was to be charged this fee. He filed suit claiming it was unconstitutional to charge this fee to prisoners. Choose the side of the prisoner or the side of the state and tell why you would rule for the side you chose. At the top of your post, please indicate SUPPORT PRISONER or OPPOSE PRISONER and then give your rationale. After you can view your classmates' posts, make your case to your fellow students. 3.A defendant pleaded guilty to receiving and possessing child pornography and was sentenced to 108 months in prison. The sentencing judge raised the defendant’s base offense level….by two levels because "a computer was used for the transmission" of the illegal material. The appeal filed challenged the punishment enhancement (not his guilt of the base punishment.) The defendant argued the law did not apply to him because he did not use a computer to transmit the material. (ie He was the receiver, not the sender, of the child pornography.) Do you believe that the sentence enhancement should be upheld? Give an economic analysis and rational for your choice. At the top of your post, please indicate SENTENCE UPHELD or SENTENCE REVERSED and then give your economic analysis/rationale. After you can view your classmates' posts, make your case to your fellow students. 4.The ordinance was enacted that gives tenants more legal rights including: the payment of interest on security deposits; requires that those deposits be held in Illinois banks; allows (with some limitations) a tenant to withhold rent in an amount reflecting the cost to him of the landlord's v.

1. This week, we’ve been introduced to the humanities and have taken some time to consider the role of the humanities in establishing socio-cultural values, including how the humanities differ from the sciences in terms of offering unique lenses on the world and our reality. Since one of the greatest rewards of being a human is engaging with different forms of art, we’ve taken some time this week to learn about what it means to identify and respond to a work of art. We’ve learned about the difference between abstract ideas and concrete images and concepts like structure and artistic form. To help you deepen your understanding of these foundational ideas, your Unit 1 assignment will consist of writing an essay addressing using the following criteria: Essay Requirements: • 1,000 words or roughly four double-spaced pages. • Make use of at least three scholarly sources to support and develop your ideas. Our course text may serve as one of these three sources. • Your essay should demonstrate a thorough understanding of the READ and ATTEND sections. • Be sure to cite your sources using proper APA format (7th edition). Essay Prompt: • In this essay, you will consider the meaning of art and artistic form by responding to these questions: o To what extent does Kevin Carter’s Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph (figure 2-5) have artistic form? o Using what you’ve learned in Chapters 1, 2 and 14 explain if you consider Carter’s photograph a work of art? Be sure to point to specific qualities of the photograph to support/develop your response. o How do you measure the intensity of your experience in response to Carter’s photograph? What does it make you see/feel/imagine and how does your response/reaction support Carter’s image as a work of art? .
