Many of us nowadays invest significant amounts of time in sharing our activities and opinions with friends and family via social networking tools. However, despite the availability of many platforms for scientists to connect and share with their peers in the scientific community the majority do not make use of these tools, despite their promise and potential impact and influence on our future careers. We are being indexed and exposed on the internet via our publications, presentations and data. We also have many more ways to contribute to science, to annotate and curate data, to “publish” in new ways, and many of these activities are as part of a growing crowdsourcing network. This presentation will provide an overview of the various types of networking and collaborative sites available to scientists and ways to expose your scientific activities online. Many of these can ultimately contribute to the developing measures of you as a scientist as identified in the new world of alternative metrics. Participating offers a great opportunity to develop a scientific profile within the community and may ultimately be very beneficial, especially to scientists early in their career.

Snap. Snip. Send.: How Mobile Media is Transforming Storytelling in the Class...Brett Atwood
Journalism and communication educators are grappling with new ways to engage students in the classroom using mobile apps and media platforms. As new content creation tools and distribution platforms continue to emerge, many mobile-savvy millennials are finding themselves on the frontlines of experimentation in the creation and curation of cutting-edge mobile content. Because modern media teachers are beginning to integrate Snapchat, Periscope and even 360-degree VR storytelling into their education mix, the focus of this presentation will include a discussion of how students are eagerly using video apps to instantly edit and distribute news to both select and wide audiences.
This is a quick overview of some considerations in creating video for a web journalism format. Topics include lighting and camera angle/aesthetic considerations.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Are Bloggers Journalists?
• 52% of bloggers consider themselves to be
journalists
• 20% of bloggers derive the majority of their
income from their blog work
• But are bloggers the same as journalists?
Source: 2010 PRWeek/PR Newswire Media Survey
3. Is It Journalism?
• Most have not “trained” to be journalists
– 57% of bloggers include links to original sources
either “sometimes” or “often.”
– 56% of bloggers spend extra time trying to verify
facts they want to include in a post either
“sometimes” or “often.”
SOURCE: PEW INSTITUTE 2006 SURVEY
4. Opinion & Ideology
• Blogging is often personal in nature and told
from a definite point of view
• “Traditional journalism” is different
5. Traditional Journalism
• “Fair and balanced” reporting is the goal
• Despite limitations of time and resources, we
strive to gather and present facts in an
unbiased way
6. It’s not about “You”
• Challenge your own assumptions and those of
your readers
• Logic, intellect and research should prevail
over emotion, gut instinct and personal belief
systems
7. Bias
• Bias in the news and blogging can take many
forms
– Word choices
– Image choices
– Omission of information
– Selection of sources
– Story framing & context
8. Word Choices
• Whether intentional or not, the words you
choose may reveal your personal views
• Stay neutral and stick to the facts
• Interactive Exercise:
– Word Choices
– Headline Choices
9. Image Choices
• What graphic or image should accompany
your story?
• Can you think of examples where the image
captures something different than the
physical reality of the event?
• Interactive Exercise: Image Choices
10. Omission of Information
• Who sets the mainstream media news
agenda?
• What gets covered or ignored?
• Interactive Exercise: Omissions
11. Selection of Sources
• Should you exclude a viewpoint to reinforce
your own agenda or belief?
• Interactive Exercise: Sources
12. Story Framing & Context
• On the Web, the earliest reports are often
amplified by others
• Stories are “framed” and contextualized by
the journalist (but also by others)
• Interactive Exercise: Story Framing
13. Examples: The Aggregators
• Drudge Report
– Conservative in nature
– Monica Lewinsky/Bill
Clinton Scandal
• Huffington Post
– Liberal response to
Drudge Report
14. The Aggregators
• Beyond news, there are
several popular
aggregate blog sites for
specific areas of interest
• Examples:
– Technorati.com
– BoingBoing.net
16. What is “Crowdsourcing?”
• A collaborative form of reporting
• Each contributor researches and contributes a
component to the overall piece
• The actual story may or may not be written by a
collaborator
• Content is usually overseen by a centralized editor
17. “Pro-Am” Journalism
• Crowdsourcing is often referred to as “pro-am
journalism”
– A combination of both professional and amateur
contributions
