YouTube is one of the most globally utilised online content sharing sites, enabling new commercial enterprise, education opportunities and facilities for vernacular creativity (Burgess, 2006). Its user engagement demonstrates significant capacity to develop online communities, alongside its arguably more popular use as a distribution platform to monetise one’s branded self (Senft, 2013). However, as a subset of Alphabet Incorporated, its access is often restricted by governments of Asian Pacific countries who disagree with the ideology of the business. Despite this, online communities thrive in these countries, bringing into question the sorts of augmentations used by its participants. This article reframes the discussion beyond restrictive regulation to focus on the DIY approach (augmentation) of community building through the use of hidden infrastructures (algorithms). This comparative study of key YouTube channels in several Asia Pacific countries highlights the sorts of techniques that bypass limiting infrastructures to boost online community engagement and growth. Lastly, this article reframes the significance of digital intermediation to highlight the opportunities key agents contribute to strengthening social imaginaries within the Asia Pacific region.

What are the opportunities and the challenges offered by emerging modes of technologically-inflected communication and decision-making? What is our role and responsibility as educators and as developers of research and teaching digital infrastructures? What do students need in the 21st century? As education institutions and providers struggle to respond to the first two questions, are we abrogating our responsibility to the last?
In this talk, Matt Ratto will describe some of the opportunities and the challenges we currently face, laying out a model of action for how to potentially address the questions raised above. Core to his thinking are two related points; first that we must help students develop a greater sense of how the informational world and its attendant infrastructures helps shape how and what we think, and second, that a good way to do this is to give students the space to engage in reflexive acts of technological production – what Matt has termed ‘critical making.’ He will provide concrete examples from both his research and his teaching that demonstrate the value and importance of reflexive, hands-on work with digital technologies in helping students develop the critical digital literacy skills they need to function in today’s society.

Using social media strategy in building the corporate brand image is a route a lot of people imagine they know - what with the number of influencers, opinion leaders, trend watchers, and spotters laying claims to so-called virile strategy which generate likes, impressions and conversations. However, that is not all there is to capturing corporate essence in an era of great cynicism. Using Social Media as a route to build corporate stature requires the need to develop and manage strategic partnerships, the monitoring of trends and applications of knowledge from trends in building conversations while measuring the impact of efforts in order to intensify or discontinue a course of action. Beyond this, this presentation attempts a historical perspective of the social media phenomenon as well as platform possibilities looking at the Nigerian context.

Optimistic interpretations: ignoring social relations that influence the social distribution and impact of the new ICT. The new digital technologies function as commodities, and their distribution – at least initially – tends to follow existing divisions of class, race and gender. Rather than assisting with equalization, the new information and communication technologies tend to reinforce social inequality, and lead to the formation of socially and technologically disadvantaged and excluded individuals (Golding, 1996; Zappala, 2000).

‘I don’t want to live their lives!’ The dynamics of Vietnamese digital mediaUniversity of Sydney
Vietnam demonstrates advanced levels of digital media use. Online content creators have adapted to thrive within a media ecology against non-authentic media by evolving towards experience translators. Through interviews with Vietnamese creative industry experts, online content creators and young users, this article articulates how Vietnamese digital media is similar to outside models but has its own distinctiveness, rewarding its users by providing a generally positive space for online communication. Through a de-Westernised lens, it is possible to observe Vietnamese digital media is broadly progressive, inclusive, and at an arms-length from hate speech, misinformation and vitriol content. Vietnam’s focus on positivity and support for communities over individuals has provided a burgeoning digital media market for a variety of industries. Vietnamese digital media demonstrates a pushback against commercially oriented individuals that use their platformed affordances for capital gain, in preference for content from what can be described as online experience intermediators.
How might generative artificial intelligence (AI) and automation be undertaken to produce social good? In an increasingly automated digital media world, user agency is challenged through the loss of interaction functionality on the platforms, technologies and interfaces of everyday digital media use. Instead, algorithmically designed decision making processes function for users to assist them in making sense of these environments as a means of assisting them to seek out content that is relevant, of interest and entertaining. However, if the last five years are anything to go by, these sorts of recommendations, particularly across social media, have caused anything but social cohesion and unity amongst users, and have instead spread misinformation, vitriol and hurtful media. Would our society be different had we designed systems that focused on, while still entertaining, content that places the wellbeing of humans at the forefront over content that is, for the most part, popular?
This presentation uses the lens of digital intermediation to explore how civic algorithms might be designed and implemented in digital spaces to improve social cohesion. By unpacking the technologies, institutions and automation surrounding the cultural production practices of digital intermediation, it becomes clearer how these leavers can be adjusted to nudge and encourage platforms, users and content creators to engage in improved civic processes. As a digital intermediation challenge, creating and working with civic algorithms presents as a potentially useful approach towards improving the cornerstone of our democracies by ensuring citizens have access to accurate information, are engaging in the discussions that are important and relevant to them, and are operating within digital environments that value social good alongside commercial gains.
Are newsbots really able to 'converse' with their audiences? Maybe. This presentation explores 16 newsbots and highlights some of the advantages and challenges of automating the news through bots.

From KPIs to KOLs: Regulating social media and influencers within VietnamUniversity of Sydney
The recent Facebook livestream by Nguyen Phuong Hang, which lasted for over three hours, vocally criticised, and called-out online celebrities for their dysfunctional behaviour, signifies a new era for social media and influencers within the country. As a key opinion leader (KOL) herself, Nguyen Phuong Hang has the capacity to swing public opinion, triggering a key regulatory moment for the Vietnamese government. As an already regulatory-tight country, Vietnam faces a paradoxical social media regulation moment: significant investment in its digital media future, while maintaining a consistent political line. As a result of this Facebook livestream, the Vietnamese government are looking to pressure KOLs and online influencers by increasing control over livestreaming: any social media account that has more than 10,000 followers must provide their contact information to the authorities. Social media platforms will be asked to remove content that has been flagged as problematic by government officials, highlighting Vietnam’s position on regulating foreign social media platforms, not only YouTube or Facebook specifically. This research draws on algorithmic visibility literature to examine the current state of regulation for Vietnamese social media users with a specific focus on KOLs. Drawing on several recent case studies, we highlight the current state of social media regulation in Vietnam, while also extrapolating the tension the country faces as it invests in and develops its digital and creative industries.

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.

He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
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”.
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.

7. Digital intermediation is the combination of these agents within a new
media ecology:
• data: presenting as online content producers with new approaches
towards highly visible content (maybe shareable?) across platforms;
and
• algorithms: singularly and as the combination of algorithmic
decision making, predictive media decisions, machine learning and
possibly artificial intelligence within automated media systems.
Digital intermediation describes the process of and between the
infrastructure for information exchange processes of cultural
intermediation.
Digital intermediation creates new forms of online communities and
knowledge exchange, suggesting new power relations and production
methodologies also emerge within an entrepreneurial social media
ecosystem.
8. Social Imaginaries
• A “social imaginary … is shared by large
groups of people, if not the whole
society” (Taylor, 2003)
• They often manifest through “techniques
and design principles that are used to
create software or to implement networking
protocols [and] cannot be distinguished
from ideas or principles of social and moral
order for these informants” (Kelty, 2005)
• Social imagination, then, is a combination of
individuals and the materialities they use to
create a legitimate process of constructing
and engaging with their surrounding society.

19. Micro-platformization suggests a new digital intermediary has emerged who acts as an agency for digital agencies, in many
ways ensuring advertisers receive the most appropriate influencer for their products or services. In a similar way that
platformization makes data platform ready, micro-platformization makes influencers brand ready. While the marketplace of
culture is still the process of providing audiences to advertisers across social media, the introduction of two significant
stakeholder groups have demonstrated the specialist focus of communicating across social media. To send messages
across social media effectively, one needs a unique vantage for their content production, but also requires the distribution
capacity of the digital intermediaries that bring cultural production audiences and producers together.
