Creating to Learn: Addressing Transgression in School Video ProductionRenee Hobbs
When students have the freedom to use digital media to create, communicate and disseminate messages, distinctly carnivalesque and transgressive creative projects are often part of the mix. In this paper, I situate in-school youth media transgression in the context of pedagogical theories of participatory culture, art education, and digital and media literacy education. Using interviews with five experienced high school media production educators, I examine how educators perceive school situations where behavior or student media work products are transgressive. Teachers conceptualize the distinctions between students who use transgression as a form expressive creativity, a reproduction of the tropes of mass media and popular culture, the result of novices making mistakes as part of learning, an attempt to gain social power and status among their peers, or a challenge to adult authority. They perceive creative control to be a negotiation between students and teachers on issues of content, format, production and distribution processes.

Rhetorical Analysis Response
Renee Hobbs describes three practices of academic writing that help you develop new ideas in relation to the books, videos, websites and other information you encounter for learning.
Rogerian Analysis
Life is
about
Compromise
Rogerian = You Win and I Win
Rather than traditional argument, Rogerian argument establishes common ground through shared values and assumptions.
Common ground is established by summarizing and restating the opponent’s position.
Purpose
The Rogerian argument is designed to bring together two opposing views and show where/how they reach common ground.
Once common ground is established, decisions can be made that all parties can agree to.
Carl Rogers (1902-1987)
Believed in nondirective or client-centered therapy in psychology and clinical therapy situations.
Rogerian viewpoints believes “that the most personal feelings are also the most common and most likely to be understood by others” (Mauk and Metz 537).
Rogers’ Theory
Rogers wrote “Mutual communication tends to be pointed toward solving a problem rather than toward attacking a person or group” (qtd. in Barnet and Bedau 455).
Uses for Rogerian
Sensitive topics
Abortion
Gun Control
Death Penalty
Stem Cell Research/Cloning
Business meetings
Conflict negotiations
Anytime two or more views are in conflict
Emphasis
Great for psychological and emotional arguments
Pathos and ethos emphasized more than logos and strict logic
Disadvantages of Rogerian
You have to be willing to try reaching common ground
Seems like you are giving ground to your opponent.
Writer must be willing to change personal views – a risk to many people.
Advantages to Rogerian
Release tension and disagreement
Encourage negotiation and cooperation
Controls uneven power relationships
According to Barnett and Bedau, Rogerian argument is
Nonconfrontational, collegial, and friendly
Seeks some degree of assent rather than convince utterly.
Rogerian Strategy
Conveys to the reader that he is understood
Delineates the area within which he believes the reader's position to be valid
Induces him to believe that he and the writer share certain moral qualities (Writing Commons)
The Process
Introduction
Introduce the issue and state the opposing position in order to show that you understand it.
Present the problem
Challenge yourself to risk change
Elaborate on the value of opposing positions
Where and under what circumstances is the opposing view valid?
The Process Cont’d.
Describe the context in which your position is valid.
Show how the opposing position would be strengthened if elements from your position were added.
Arrive at an agreeable compromise or reconciliation.

ESSAY #4—PERSUASION/ARGUMENT
Essay 4 is a persuasive essay. Your goal is to present a convincing argument on one of the prescribed topics by using outside sources to support your argument. You MUSTuse the movie, Crash, as your major source.
Genre/Medium: Persuasive/Argumentative Essay—Typed
Purpose:
Unlike an editorial, the persuasive essay is not merely your personal opinion about a topic, but an argument that provides scholarly evidence of research (i.e. various sources, interviews, quotes, and sufficient statistical data) to support your position. Because of the length and complexity of this project, it is essential that you choose a topic that you really care about, one that you truly want to learn more about, and one that you will be interested in writing about.
Format:
Your seven-to-nine paragraph essay must contain a concrete closed thesis statement at the end of the first paragraph. In addition to your introduction, three supporting paragraphs and conclusion, your essay will also contain a paragraph of opposition and a paragraph of refutation. You will use MLA documentation to write your paper and we will consult with each other about your topic before the final draft is written.
Audience:
This essay will target a scholarly audience. Therefore, your language and style should meet the intellectual needs of individuals who read on a collegiate level. As you think about your audience, write to pique the interest of your audience by considering what your readers already know and what they need to know.
Stance:
For this essay, it is imperative that you take a stance and present ideas that convey your stance throughout your essay. Never contradict your thesis.
Requirements:
Although your final requirement for this project is a completed essay, you will carry out the steps for writing a research paper by participating in four separate graded activities that lead up to your final essay. Before you submit your final essay you will complete the following:
1. The Research Proposal /Thesis Statement Defense (Unit Quiz #4)
2. An Annotated Bibliography (Unit Quiz #5)
3. A Peer Review
4. Final Essay
Getting Started
Before choosing your topic you should consider what you want to write about. Once you have chosen your topic, you should decide where you stand on the issue. Next, you want to develop your position with evidence—research—that will validate your point. You will need to use at least 3 sources of support for your essay. Finally, you will present your argument in a way that convinces the reader that your perspective is a valid one. Remember, this essay, like the others you have written, should have a specific, detailed, three-point thesis statement.
Dos and Don'ts
· Don’t deviate from the topic.
· Don’t debate the obvious; go beyond the surface.
· Don’t rely strictly on your feeling ...

Media Literacy, Artificial Intelligence and American ValuesRenee Hobbs
Delivered at the Holland Symposium at Angelo State University, February 15, 2024.
Digital tools are used to create a tsunami of entertainment, information, and persuasion that floods into our daily lives because media messages influence knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behaviors. Some people are overwhelmed and others are exhilarated by the rise of generative AI, which is quickly becoming normative for both creators and consumers alike. At the same time, mistrust and distrust are rising because it’s so easy to use digital media tools to activate strong emotions, simplify information, and attack opponents. Thanks to algorithmic personalization, new forms of propaganda are being created and shared on social media. Tailored to our deepest hopes, fears, and dreams, these messages can, at times, seem irresistible.
But the practice of media literacy education offers a humanistic response to the changing nature of knowledge caused by the rise of big data and its reshaping of the arts, business, the sciences, education, and the humanities. Learn how educators can help learners to ask critical questions that enable people to recognize the subtle forms of manipulation embedded in all forms of symbolic expression. Gain an understanding of the business models and technological affordances of AI, machine learning, and big data in order to distinguish between harmful and beneficial AI tools, texts, and technologies. Learn why creative and critical thinking, when it is combined with intellectual humility and empathy, help people develop the identity of a lifelong learner. When media literacy is embedded in education at all levels, people can find common ground, restore trust, and deepen respect for the shared human values of care and compassion.

Media Literacy Education in a Global SocietyRenee Hobbs
What We’re Learning and What We Still Need to Know
By Renee Hobbs
Media literacy education has greatly increased in visibility as increasing political polarization continues to threaten democratic societies. Around the world, tech companies invest in media literacy education, hoping that it will stave off regulation of their digital platforms. Journalists and politicians hope media literacy education will increase the public’s appetite for quality journalism to improve civic education. Parents expect that media literacy will help protect their children against the harms and risks of growing up with social media. And educators at all levels are beginning to recognize that the 4 C’s of media literacy (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills) are increasingly central to an emerging conceptualization of a “new liberal arts” education. Which of these themes and areas of emphasis are privileged as media literacy education is implemented around the world? What are the most urgent needs still to be addressed? How can the many stakeholders for media literacy better coordinate their efforts to accelerate implementation?

Improving Reading Comprehension by Using Media Literacy Activities
By Renee Hobbs
Some literacy educators still hold to the idea that audiovisual media and digital technologies are the enemies of print culture, but a growing number of educators are exploring the synergistic relationship between different forms of reading that occur when the concept of text is expanded to include images, graphic design, multimodality, moving image media, and online content. At home, parents cultivate children's understanding of story structure by engaging in activities that involve children's re-telling of books, cartoons, games, and short films. They pause children's videos to ask questions, comment on action and predict what will happen next. Such practices cultivate viewing as a cognitively active process, a concept that was first articulated in the 1970s but continues to be more deeply appreciated with the rise of YouTube culture, where the distinction between authors and audiences is diminished. During the elementary grades, teachers use media literacy competencies when reading children's picturebooks, calling attention to when the words of a story and the image of the story conflict or deliver different messages. Active "reading" of picture books is a practice that foregrounds the meaning-making process and elevates reading comprehension beyond mere decoding. When educators reframe their work with youth as less about passing high-stakes tests and more about learning to navigate the multiple literacy contexts in which they live, learn, and work, students' motivation for reading increases. For this reason, literacy specialists are exploring links between disciplinary literacy, inquiry, and media literacy. Media literacy instructional practices honor students' popular culture and lived experience, and offer opportunities for students to bring their affect, emotion, imagination, and social interaction into reading practices that examine and challenge cultural conventions like materialism and consumerism that are reproduced in media culture on a daily basis.
Educators are themselves citizens who express and share political views as part of their personal identity. They may care deeply about issues including climate change, immigration/migration, growing economic inequality, health and wellness, racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination, or other topics of concern. But in the classroom, some educators do not feel confident or comfortable exploring controversial issues with students, while others make clear their particular positions on political issues without necessarily reflecting on the inequality in power relationships that may silence their
students. The practice of critical media analysis and reflection help teachers navigate both the opportunities and the challenges of exploring contemporary controversies in the
classroom. Teachers benefit greatly from safe and structured opportunities to talk about the ethical and moral implications of their decisions to address or ignore controversial issues in the classroom.
Create to Learn: Advancing Collaboration and CreativityRenee Hobbs
Academic librarians, technologists, and higher education faculty have been actively experimenting with new forms of digital learning during the global pandemic. In the process, they have discovered some valuable strategies and practices that will continue to fuel innovation in teaching, learning, and scholarship for years to come. In this session, we’ll discuss why it’s more important than ever before to have complicated conversations about all the literacies - information, media, news, digital, critical, and those that are yet to be named. How do these competencies get integrated into all programs and courses across the liberal arts and sciences? In this session, we’ll take time to experiment, working in small groups, using create-to-learn pedagogies that can provoke intellectual curiosity by combining play and learning. Then, we’ll reflect on how creative collaboration can offer a liberating way to open up spaces of possibility and adaptation for the stakeholders in our own institutions and communities.

Is Ripping for Fair Use Still Important? Considering DMCA 1201 in 2020 and Beyond
Presented by Renee Hobbs
Media literacy educators rely on the ability to access movies and popular culture and use them for learning purposes. As “create to learn” pedagogies become increasingly common, students, educators and library patrons continue to rely on ripped excerpts from DVDs. After all, ripped clips of movie DVDs can be educationally useful in presentations as well as in composing remix media production projects. Thanks to the DMCA 1201 exemption, ripping DVDs is legal for educational and creative purposes. But with the rise of streaming media and screencasting, is the process of “ripping” DVDs still as relevant and important as it was in 2006? In this discussion, we’ll consider the future of DMCA 1201, the law that impacts educators, learners, creative people, and librarians. Using an open discussion, we’ll consider the question: Given the rise of streaming video and screencasting and the decline of DVD players in schools, is it worth the effort to preserve the exemption? Why or why not?

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. The Conversation Has Been Going On
Before You Arrived
In fact, the discussion had already begun long before any
of them got there, so that no one present is qualified to
retrace for you all the steps that had gone before. You
listen for a while, until you decide that you have caught the
tenor of the argument; then you put in your oar. Someone
answers; you answer him; another comes to your defense;
another aligns himself against you, to either the
embarrassment or gratification of your opponent,
depending upon the quality of your ally’s assistance.
However, the discussion is interminable. The hour grows
late, you must depart. And you do depart, with the
discussion still vigorously in progress. (Kenneth Burke,
110-11, Philosophy of Literary Form)
4. They Say, I Say
• Academic writing is highly social: through writing, we
engage with the work of others
• We enter an academic conversation using the ideas of
others as a sounding board or launch pad for our own
ideas
• We can agree with, challenge or respond to the ideas
presented by others
• Templates or models can help writers structure their ideas
5.
6. Using and Citing
Sources
There are three ways to incorporate other
people’s ideas into your writing:
1. Summarizing
2. Paraphrasing
3. Quoting directly from the source
7. SUMMARIZING
When you condense the main ideas of a
writer’s argument or evidence, you are
summarizing. You do not use the wording
of the writer, but you put the main ideas
into your own words. You show your
reader that the information you read has
passed through your mind, that you have
interpreted it and analyzed it, and that you
are not just copying from the original
source.
8. EXAMPLE OF
SUMMARIZING
THEY SAY: Boys and girls also have different
content preferences, with girls having more interest
in media that features human relationships,
romance and friendships, celebrities and music.
Girls are more likely to use chat rooms and boys are
more likely to prefer media that features action,
violence and competition (Lemish, Liebes &
Seidmann, 2001).
I SAY: Parents influence the way that children
engage with media content; how adults respond to
different genres and formats of movies, TV shows
and print media helps set norms and expectations
for children.
9. PARAPHRASING
When you focus on one or two sentences of a
writer’s work and put them into your own words,
you are paraphrasing. You paraphrase when you
want to highlight the details, facts or specific
information provided by an author.
10. EXAMPLE OF
PARAPHRASING
THEY SAY: Patterns of media use and access
to media show that in the U.S. and most Western
European nations, two-thirds of girls play electronic
games and an increasing number use the Internet.
However, media use is still somewhat
stereotypically gendered. For example, when asked
which medium children would prefer as a birthday
gift, girls are most likely to choose a television set
and boys are most likely to prefer a computer or
computer-related accessory (Livingstone & Bovill,
2001).
I SAY: Although family influence is important, the
ubiquitous presence of consumer merchandising of
toys, games and media is almost certainly a factor in
the maintenance of gender stereotypical responses
of children.
11. DIRECT QUOTATION
You may want to quote the source directly
if the language in a specific quote is very
powerful or the ideas in the quote are
very important to your argument.
You should try not to use too many direct
quotes or quotes that are too long – if you
did this, the writing would not truly be your
own work. When you quote, you must
alert your reader that you are quoting by
enclosing the quote in quotation marks
and make sure you copy the quote exactly
as it appears in the text, punctuation
included.
12. EXAMPLE OF DIRECT
QUOTATION
THEY SAY: Boys watch more television and
play more videogames; girls read more magazines
and books, listen to more music and watch more
movies. As Roe (1998, 23) has put it, "In this period
of their lives, boys and girls increasingly inhabit
different media worlds."
I SAY: Today there is very little media that can be
comfortably watched by boys and girls, parents and
children alike. Therefore, I contend that the extreme
specialization of media content is contributing to
increasing isolation among family members and a
diminishment in the quality of family life;

– He claims that _______, and I have mixed
feelings about it. On the one hand, I agree
that ______. On the other hand, I still insist
that_______.
– Although I grant that ____, I still maintain
that _____.
18. Citing your Sources
You should use a combination of:
• attributive tags
• in-text citations
to document the sources you used in
your work.
19. ATTRIBUTIVE TAGS
Attribution (n). Assigning to a source
Language that tells the reader that you are using another’s
ideas.
According to AUTHOR…
AUTHOR states that…
AUTHOR goes on to say that…
Attribution may be used with SUMMARIZING,
PARAPHRASING or DIRECT QUOTATION.
20. IN-TEXT CITATION
After summarizing, paraphrasing, or direct quotation, use
the (author-date) method of citation, following
guidelines for style (MLA, APA, Chicago, etc).
For summarizing or paraphrasing: (Author, year of
publication)
For direct quotation: (Author, date, page)
