Internship at 55,000 Degrees: In Search of College-Educated Adults by Danny ...Brown Fellows Program
55,000 Degrees is a Louisville organization dedicated to increasing the number of college-educated adults. The author interned with 55,000 Degrees and conducted research on the accessibility of state financial aid programs. The research found that from 2010-2013, over half of the 78,568 students declared eligible for the College Access Program and Kentucky Tuition Grants did not receive funds, leaving 54,142 students without aid. The internship provided experience with education policy work, strengthening the author's passion for education reform.Friends of the Children by Maddie Hooper
Friends of the Children is a nonprofit organization that provides long-term mentoring for vulnerable children from kindergarten through high school graduation. It aims to break cycles of abuse, incarceration, and poverty by selecting children most in need and matching them with professional mentors for 121⁄2 years. Research shows the program generates $3.4 million in social benefits per graduate. It has expanded to other cities and countries, and plans to serve 7,500 children by 2026. Madeline Hooper interned as a communications intern, observing mentors and children, writing blog posts and articles, researching partners, and handling social media and publicity. The internship helped her realize she wants work putting her in direct contact with people and

The document provides tips for chapters to proactively improve their image with five important publics: the university community, parents, alumni, and the public. It suggests establishing relationships with university PR, sending press releases about new members and events, having a presence at orientation activities, regularly communicating with alumni through newsletters and social media, and publicizing philanthropic events to local media and the community.
Students are the Story: Using Personalization to Create Shareable Content
The document discusses how higher education institutions can personalize news stories about student achievements and activities to create engagement. It recommends focusing on distributing these personalized stories through hyperlocal media outlets and social media. Personalized stories that provide details about individual students are more likely to be shared online and seen as relevant by local communities. This can help raise awareness of the institution and support recruitment and alumni engagement.
In defense of citizen journalism
Citizen journalism has grown significantly with the rise of the internet and smartphones, altering the traditional role of professional journalists. It allows ordinary people to play an active role in collecting and reporting news and information. While this removes the gatekeeping role of professional journalists in ensuring accuracy and verification, citizen journalism provides local perspectives and coverage of issues mainstream media may miss. It also engages communities more and supports activism, though there is debate around who qualifies as a journalist in this new media landscape. Overall, news organizations are embracing citizen journalism as a way to promote democratic participation and disseminate information through new channels.

UTA Shorthorn 2010 kickoff meeting
The document discusses challenges faced by college newspapers in the digital age and strategies for adapting. It notes that while early attempts to replace print with highly customized digital newspapers were unsuccessful, the key now is embracing social media, mobile platforms, and niche/local content. The author advocates experimentation and acting as a content partner to engage the community while exploring new revenue sources like advertising. The overall message is that different platforms require different strategies and there is no single expert model, just ongoing learning from attempts.
Pr And The Media Establishing Experts
The document discusses how experts fit into public relations and news reporting. It defines an expert as someone with specialized knowledge or skills in a particular subject. Experts can help generate news stories and provide authoritative information to journalists. Some key factors in establishing someone as an expert include their academic degrees, years of experience in their field, previous media exposure, and recommendations from other experts. The document also provides tips for preparing experts to interact with the media and examples of typical expert outreach from journalists.

Social media vs traditional media
The document discusses the rise of social media and its impact on traditional media. It notes that internet usage and social networking sites have grown dramatically in recent years. As a result, newspaper circulation is declining and many papers now face threats of closure. The document argues that if consumers are online, businesses need to reach them online as traditional media becomes a thing of the past.
Citizen Journalism
The document discusses the rise of citizen journalism and its implications. It defines citizen journalism as members of the public playing an active role in news and information through independent websites, personal broadcasting sites, and participatory news sites, rather than professional journalism. It provides examples of how citizen journalism grew after events like 9/11 and the 2004 tsunami as people wanted immediate coverage. It explores blogging, open source reporting, and the impact citizen journalism has had on revealing news stories. It asks discussion questions about the impact on youth and ability to impact government affairs.

This document discusses the launch and results of MyMissourian, a citizen journalism website created by the Missouri School of Journalism. It launched in 2004 to give non-professional community members a voice and help train students. It was successful and generated enough content to launch a print edition in 2006. While there were initial concerns about credibility and control, the site found that citizens generally followed simple rules and produced compelling, original content. The project provided lessons for both teaching journalism and integrating audiences into the reporting process.
Reimagining Journalism in the Age of Social Media
A presentation about how journalism might be reimagined in an age when more people are embracing the precepts of social media.

Doing Mediaptation: Learning from the Protest Camp discusses using media for social change and adapting media practices and social change objectives. It emphasizes developing critical media literacy through a dual adaptation approach where media and objectives are adapted to each other. This involves co-opting different roles like teacher/student and managing mainstream media at protest camps to create their own frames of reference. True media literacy requires understanding power dynamics and one's own role through activities like parody and discussion of how change happens. Future research should untangle definitions of civic action from media literacy objectives and map them to best practices that develop "civic capability".

95% of Americans aged 65 and older get their news from traditional cable companies in the last week, though cable subscribership has dropped in recent years. 40% of Americans would pay to watch or read news online. People over 65 are much less likely to use the internet for news compared to millennials, most of whom say staying up to date with the latest news is at least somewhat important. Social media allows for more user interaction and earned media opportunities for news organizations and advertisers, helping internet-based news reach wider audiences than traditional forms.
Citizen Journalism
Pivoting off Jay Rosen's definition of citizen journalism, this presentation draws on Steve Outing's "11 Layers of Citizen Journalism" to illustrate some of the key features of this form of newswork.
Guerrero, manuel public-connection-civic-deliberation-salzburg-2015
This document summarizes the findings of a 2003-2006 study on media consumption and public engagement. The study was replicated across Europe, the Americas, and New Zealand. It used both quantitative (surveys) and qualitative (interviews, diaries) methods to examine how people understand and engage with public issues through their media diets. Key findings included that digital media do not replace traditional sources; social media consumption does not imply online deliberation; and communicative deliberation does not necessarily lead to political engagement. The study also found that traditional models in political science do not fully capture new forms of participation emerging online.
Final defense
The document discusses citizen journalism and how marginalized youth can use digital media to empower themselves and create positive social change. It focuses on a study of Kenyan teens infected or affected by HIV/AIDS who participated in a program called JUMP that used podcasts, videos and personal stories to share their experiences. The study found these digital stories helped the youth feel empowered and that citizen journalism is an effective way for global youth to create social change.
Contemporary Social Issues. Media Impacts on Teens.
The document discusses the effects that media has on teens. It covers how media portrays unrealistic body images and glorifies risky behaviors which can influence teens. It also examines how excessive social media and video game use has been linked to increased aggression, violence, and depression in teens. The social disorganization theory is presented as a way to understand how rapidly changing social norms from media exposure can disrupt societies expectations of teens.
The impact of citizen journalism
Citizen journalism has significantly impacted the media in several ways. It has provided additional fact-checkers for professional journalists and given citizens a way to both consume and create news content using new online mediums. This participatory culture has led media companies to adjust their online content and styles. Studies show that most Americans now get their news from multiple sources, both online and offline, and often share news links on social media. While citizen journalism has grown, professional journalism is not necessarily endangered if it can incorporate crowdsourcing techniques without replacing reporters.
Volunteering for credit
The document discusses a partnership between TCU and a volunteer center to create volunteer internships for college credit. The program identifies opportunities where students can volunteer and earn credit by meeting requirements for hours worked, academic relevance, and submitting a formal report. Some available internships include IT assistance, tutoring grades K-6, teaching basic money management, and assisting social/health/civic services. The benefits are said to include giving students a competitive edge, increasing faculty-student interaction, offering internships in various majors, and helping the community while building partnerships.
UN Millenial Development Goals
The document discusses decent work and economic growth, specifically focusing on providing opportunities for young people through internships and trade jobs to gain experience and support themselves financially. It suggests advocating to local leaders and going into high schools to spread awareness of existing opportunities and discuss the importance of finding decent work. Social media could also be leveraged through posting articles, word-of-mouth, and sponsorship on platforms like Facebook and Instagram.

Disability Accommodation in the Workplace
John, an employee of Talk2Me Inc., began experiencing migraines in 2014 that caused frequent absences and reduced productivity. After various attempts to accommodate John through modified duties and arrangements, it was discovered that John had a brain tumor requiring surgery and lengthy rehabilitation. John was provided disability benefits but was eventually told he may no longer qualify. Talk2Me must now determine how to reasonably accommodate John upon his return to work or termination of benefits, considering its legal obligations and undue hardship factors.
How to Communicate With Your Professors
The document provides 5 rules for communicating effectively with professors: 1) Use proper greetings and address your professor formally; 2) Be patient as professors are busy and check emails for proper grammar and spelling; 3) Avoid contacting professors at inappropriate times like late at night and give them sufficient time to help; 4) Be aware of professors' social media policies and don't waste their time with non-academic posts; 5) Face-to-face communication is still important so meet with your professor in person when possible.

Social Media in Practice
65% of U.S. high school students use the internet several times a week for news and information, with 50% using mobile devices for this purpose. Social media is an effective way for newspapers to reach teen audiences where they spend their time online and on their phones. Using platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and emerging technologies teaches students digital media skills while helping publications raise awareness of their programs and showcase their work. It is important for newspapers to have a presence on social media in order to teach news literacy and online safety to the next generation.

Here are the key insights from the focus group:
- Students enjoy social events like concerts, game nights, and mixers where they can interact with others. Educational events need interactive elements.
- A loose, flexible student organization structure works best as schedules vary. Events should not require a long-term commitment.
- Social media, word-of-mouth, and flyers around campus are best ways to communicate. Messages need to be brief and highlight benefits of attending.
- Students care about causes like clean water but feel overwhelmed by global issues. Focusing on local impact and how they can directly help would resonate best.

News Literacy, Fall 2021 Week 10 Lecture
The document outlines a 7-step process for deconstructing news to assess its reliability. The steps are: 1) compare the headline to the main points of the story, 2) evaluate the evidence and whether it is direct or indirect, 3) evaluate sources using the IMVAIN criteria, 4) assess the transparency of the reporter's work, 5) determine if the facts are placed in proper context, 6) check if key questions are answered, and 7) determine if the story is fair and balanced. The overall goal is to evaluate if the information is "actionable" and allows the reader to reach conclusions, take actions, make judgments or decide to share the information.
News Literacy, Spring 2021 -- Week 9 Lecture
This document distinguishes between news and opinion journalism. It notes that while news reports can include opinions of sources, news reporting aims to inform while opinion journalism aims to both inform and persuade. Well-done opinion journalism can provide insight but must still adhere to standards of verification, independence, and accountability. The document provides examples of how different types of media clearly label or blur the lines between news and opinion. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing labeling and identifying language that indicates when the reporting stops and commentary begins.
News Literacy, Spring 2021: Week 3 Powerpoint
The document discusses factors that determine what stories are considered newsworthy. It outlines that there are three main factors: 1) Universal News Drivers like importance, conflict, proximity etc. that make certain elements inherently newsworthy. 2) Editorial judgement by news editors in determining what is interesting and important. 3) The audience and their preferences which news outlets must consider as businesses seeking viewers. Powerful images can also increase a story's prominence. Newsworthiness is a combination of these objective drivers and subjective forces.
News Literacy, Fall 2021: Week 14
The document discusses evaluating the reliability of news and information online. It introduces the IMVAIN system for assessing source credibility which looks at whether a source is named, authoritative, independent, has information that can be verified, and is corroborated by multiple sources. It emphasizes that readers must carefully evaluate sources and information to determine what is reliable and can be shared.
News Literacy, Fall 2022: Week 13 Lecture
A 1960s presidential debate uncovered that those who listened to the debate on radio thought Nixon won, while those who watched it on television thought Kennedy won. Print journalism can tell stories that don't have great video and require more time, while cable news feels an urgency to always have breaking news even if the stories lack importance. Most Americans still rely on video for news due to advantages like seeing events unfold in real time and developing a shared national experience, but video risks oversimplifying issues and distracting from facts.
News Literacy, Fall 2020: Week 11 Lecture
This document outlines a 7-step process for deconstructing news reports to assess their reliability. The steps include: 1) summarizing main points and comparing the headline to the story; 2) evaluating evidence and whether it is direct or indirect; 3) evaluating sources using the IMVAIN criteria; 4) assessing transparency; 5) evaluating context; 6) checking if key questions are answered; and 7) determining fairness. The overall goal is to determine if the news is actionable by allowing conclusions, judgments or actions to be taken.
News Literacy, Spring2021: Week 9 Lecture
The document discusses the differences between news reporting and opinion journalism. News reporting aims to inform objectively, while opinion journalism aims to both inform and persuade. Some outlets clearly separate news and opinion, while others blur the lines, especially on television. Well-done opinion journalism can provide insight into complex issues and challenge assumptions, if it is clearly labeled and grounded in facts. The document encourages readers to pay attention to labels and language to distinguish news from opinion and to identify unsupported assertions.
News Literacy, Spring 2024 -- Week 10 Lecture
1. Fairness in journalism is achieved through fair presentation of facts, fair language, and fair play over time rather than in a single story.
2. While balance, or equal time/space for opposing views, can promote fairness, it can also create false equivalencies, especially for developing or disputed stories.
3. Bias is seen as a pattern of unfairness over multiple stories from a single outlet, not from occasional errors, opinion pieces, or advertisements. Cognitive biases like confirmation bias and selective exposure to partisan media can fuel perceptions of bias.
News Literacy, Spring 2024: Week 7 Lecture
This document discusses evaluating the reliability of sources when consuming news and information. It provides guidelines for source evaluation including applying the IMVAIN criteria - whether a source is Named, Authoritative, Independent, Verifiable, has Multiple sources supporting their claims. Key points are to always ask "says who?" when evaluating a source, consider a source's potential biases or conflicts of interest, and look for corroboration from other reliable sources before acting on or sharing information from a single source. Evaluating sources is important for critical thinking and making well-informed judgments.
News Literacy, Spring 2024: Week 6 Lecture
1. Technology has made it harder to distinguish facts from fiction due to the ease of manipulating evidence and the increased speed and volume of information.
2. Verification through fact-checking sites or seeking direct evidence from authoritative sources allows statements to be checked.
3. When fact-checking, look for verification, accountability, and independence (VIA) and note the use of direct versus indirect evidence.
News Literacy, Fall 2022: Week 5 Lecture
1. Journalistic truth is based on gathering facts and evidence about events, but recognizes that as more evidence is collected, understanding of the truth may change.
2. Providing context is essential for journalistic truth, as isolated facts could mislead without full perspective.
3. Transparency about sources and limitations is important for reliable journalism, as the full truth may not yet be known.
News Literacy, Week 4 Lecture
This document discusses how to distinguish between different types of information by thinking of them as existing in different "neighborhoods". It defines journalism as requiring verification, independence, and accountability (VIA) and contrasts this with other neighborhoods like advertising, propaganda, entertainment and raw information. It emphasizes that while other types of information may resemble journalism, their primary goals are often persuasion, promotion or entertainment rather than informing the public.
What Is Newsworthy? And Who Decides?
The document discusses factors that determine what stories are considered newsworthy. It outlines that there are three main factors: 1) Universal News Drivers like importance, conflict, proximity etc. that make a story more compelling; 2) Editorial judgement of what is interesting and important; and 3) Audience preferences and what will attract their attention. It also notes the increasing role algorithms and audience data play in news selection and presentation.
News Literacy -- Spring 2021, Lecture 2
The document discusses the power of information and misinformation. It notes that humans have an innate need for information as shown by prisoners of war who missed uncensored information the most. Digital media amplifies the power of information through images and moving images. However, misinformation is also spread which makes it important to verify information by checking sources and evidence. The document then discusses how governments and others seek to control information, though a free press is important for democracy according to thinkers like John Locke and foundations of the US system. It outlines protections for press freedom in the US Constitution but also exceptions and ongoing debates around what press freedom means.
News Literacy -- Fall 2020, Lecture 1
This document discusses news literacy and its importance. News literacy is defined as using critical thinking skills to evaluate the reliability and credibility of news reports from various sources.

Coverage of Women's Sports
This document summarizes a presentation given at AEJMC 2016 about the double standard in media coverage of women's sports. The presentation addressed how college sports editors and desks tend to default to and be dominated by coverage of male sports due to a "boys club" mentality. It provided recommendations to promote more equitable coverage, such as having more women sportswriters as guest speakers, addressing gender issues in sports coverage and classes, and examining who is doing the reporting beyond just the amount of coverage.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
