This document summarizes and analyzes images from two photographers, Terry Richardson and Steven Miesel. For Richardson's work, it discusses themes of objectifying and sexualizing women for male pleasure, and how Richardson sometimes includes himself to argue he also objectifies men. It notes some criticize Richardson as a sexual predator. For Miesel's work, it analyzes images depicting torture and the normalization of such imagery in high fashion, and how this poses torture and cruelty to viewers as justified for national security or power. The conclusion finds Miesel's social commentary more thought-provoking than Richardson's seemingly self-serving images.
These are slides I use in my feature writing classes, at the University of Iowa, the University of Oregon and Linfield College. The graphics may look unimpressive, but you'll find the content is an excellent springboard for a discussion about writing that critical first sentence of any article.
Feminist Criticism: is a literary form of criticism that gives the perspective of writing through a feminist perspective. It is a political form of literature that analyzes the questions of how male and females relate to each other and the world, the repression of women and how women are portrayed in literature
Postmodern feminism refers to the feminist theory system that is inclusive of postmodern ideals
and post-structuralism theory. In this regard, it is believed that postmodern feminism goes past
modernist polarity of open-minded and far-reaching feminism. Various forms of entertainment
media have been out to use by postmodern feminists for purposes of furthering their ideologies.
The effect of this is influence of feminist studies that intersect sexuality, race, gender and race
issues. Film and TV are among the media widely used for purposes of furthering intersecting
roles.

In this short talk I will give an overview on ideas for using new technologies such as multi touch, tabletops and more to assist researchers in various tasks. We think of it as a research suite, where we go from very small devices and displays, such as a research pod and research pad, to extremely large displays, such as research on a tabletop, wall projections or even a projection dome. Specifically in this talk I will give an example of a researchpod app and a tabletop app. More! is a mobile application that has been developed for getting more information of a researcher during a presentation at a conference. This information includes all the papers, various contact information and even the slides of the presentation currently going on. Science table, a tabletop vizualisation, is a first attempt of providing easy access to publication data in a research field by showing connections between papers and its authors in various ways.

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.

8. Men’s Pleasure | Objectify Women
“To be born a woman has been to be
born, within an allotted and confined
space, into the keeping of men.”
“A naked body has to be seen as an
object in order to become a nude
(The sight of it as an object
stimulates the use of it as an
object.)”

16. Men’s Pleasure | Male Objectification
"A lot of it starts with me saying to a
girl, 'Do you want to do nudes?' And
they're like, 'I don't want to be
naked.' So I say, ' I'll be naked and
you take the pictures. You can have
the camera. You can have the
phallus...And since I'm in so many
of the pictures, aren't I
objectifying myself a bit?”
– Terry Richardson
