This document summarizes a lecture on issues related to gender and identity online. It discusses how women were underrepresented in computer science and online in 1997, and faces harassment. It then examines current statistics showing most influential online figures and Wikipedia editors are still predominantly men. The document also explores the hashtag #mencallmethings, debates around regulating misogyny online, and the role of feminist blogs in online discussions.
An examination of three traits encouraged by social networks--narcissism, insecurity, and isolation--that lead to negative behaviours among users and, ultimately, unhappiness.

The days of the rebel without a cause are gone. In contrast to the “against” status that defined youth in previous decades, today’s young people are hackers rather than revolutionaries, more interested in driving incremental change than in rejecting authority.

Eu sou Bagheera, uma ágil e valente pantera negra. Eu me movo rápida e silenciosamente em meio à selva e estou atenta a todos os seus sons e movimentos.
Conheço os segredos para sobreviver: um deles é cuidar do corpo para ficar forte e capaz de se defender dos males que podem me atacar.
Cuidar do corpo significa:
- alimentar-se bem;
- manter-se limpo(a);
- fazer exercícios físicos;
- evitar acidentes;
- viver em lugares limpos;
- prevenir doenças;
Cada qual é responsável pelo seu próprio corpo. Se você pretende ter um corpo forte e sadio, faça como eu!
Language of politics cannot be separated from the politics of language. The notion of "Political Discourse" does not remain limited to the "institutional" field of politics (e.g. parliamentary discourse, election campaigns, party programmes, speeches, etc.) but opens to all linguistic manifestations that may be considered to be political, provided that it is convincingly argued what makes them "political". In order to illuminate new and old forms of political discourses inter- and transdisciplinary perspectives and elaborated linguistic methodologies have to complement each other.

The author of this article is on the bad sides of social media. Parents, politicians and the society at large have neglected their role and left it to the children to lead and guide themselves. Too much violence, sex and vulgar language is cropping to the current generation an alarming rate. This effect has been contributed by the use of movies, television shows and recordings beyond child's age. Though the government appears ready to intervene but it cannot do all the job without the help of parents. Parents should therefore be cautious on what their children watch on social media.

Research Proposal: Sexism on Social Media
The research question that is driving my inquiry is why social media has a bias against
women. This is an important question because sexism has been a problem that has plagued
women all over the world for centuries and the emerging use of technology and social media
only allows more avenues for sexism. As technology has advanced and become part of our daily
lives so too has the use of social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit. In this day
and age social media has become a part of our culture, allowing us to connect and share our lives
with others. While this may seem very positive and beneficial, my research has shown that it also
creates new outlets for bias and harassment, largely against women, as degrading and sexist
posts, images, and comments can now be repeatedly sent to a single person or made public to
anyone that has a social media account.
Although social media is a newer addition to technology, there are arguments discussing
how social media both harms and helps women. Those such as Marwick, Buni and Chemaly, and
Daniels and Zurbriggen argue that social media does more harm as it facilitates violence,
harassment, and negative stereotypes against women. Many social media sites allow images
depicting violence against women and comments threatening women to circulate around their
site as well as permit pages dedicated to hating women to stay on the site. On top of that, many
social media sites reinforce female stereotypes by encouraging women to present themselves in a
certain light online. However, there are some, such as Chittal, who believe that social media can
Seballos 2
help women. Chittal argues that social media gives women a voice and allows them to speak out
against violence and injustices in a more public setting.
While many argue that social media is very beneficial to women, especially in recent
years with the new wave of feminism, I argue that social media is still a place that fosters sexism
and encourages bias and violence against women. Recently, many women have recognized and
spoken out about this problem and are pushing social media companies to do something about
this issue, such as hiring more people to perform moderation on the sites or being more
transparent about what can be said online. I agree with their demands and believe that social
media companies should take responsibility for the harassment that occurs and create harsher
guidelines that define and regulate what can and cannot be said on their websites.
There are multiple counterarguments that I may encounter while conducting further
research. One is the argument that social media companies should not regulate the sexist
comments and posts because it would be a violation of that user’s freedom of speech. Another
argument is that social media c.

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.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
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 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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Answer: Internet 'trolling' is the anti-social act of
causing of interpersonal conflict and shock-value
controversy online.
Named for the wicked troll creatures of children's
tales, trolling is purposely sowing hatred, bigotry,
racism, misogyny, or just simple bickering between
others. Trolls themselves are emotionally-immature
users who thrive in any environment where they are
allowed to make public comments, like blog sites,
news sites, discussion forums, and game chat.
