Media Life is a course intended for undergraduate students across campus. Its goal is to make people aware of the role that media play in their everyday life. The key to understanding a "media life" is to see our lives not as lived WITH media (which would lead to a focus on media effects and media-centric theories of society), but rather IN media (where the distinction between what we do with and without media dissolves).
Presentation and teaching material: Communication Theory - Cultivation Theory by George Gerbner. Research on Television and Violence based on the Cultural Indicators Project

Si les prises de parole concernant les générations Y et Z sont légion, il était primordial pour Starcom d’adopter une prise de position limpide sur ces termes surexploités.

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.

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.

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.

Editor's Notes
1. Reports on mental health & well-being among media professionals around the world suggest something of a mental health crisis (and a lack of mental health literacy, as well as little or no industry resources and policies to deal with this)
2. The reason why this is important for us as media scholars #1: ethical duty of care for what we study, our students who want careers in the media, and if professionals who are responsible for our news (and entertainment) are unhappy/unhealthy this impacts the quality (i.e. health) of our democracies and societies
deregulation & rise of atypical work in the context of mass layoffs and decline of traditional media business models
3. Following Reese and Shoemaker’s (2016) modelling of influences on the complex factors that shape how media get made, it is possible to parse out different yet interlocking explanations for the current mental health crisis in media work: (macro) rise of the risk society (where hazards are machined, giving rise to ontological insecurity, and a greater sense of fear and other intensely negative emotions), fueled by an ongoing emotionalization of culture (society isn’t necessarily becoming more emotional, but emotions are becoming increasingly commodified, through advertising especially after its Marlboro moment – and shift to lifestyle marketing, entertainment, and especially the news such as for example the Gulf War), and of course the global financial crisis of 2007-2008; (meso) increasing deregulation of media/telecom/tech industries in the 1990s onward, decline of traditional media business models (advertising, sales, subscriptions) and the rapid rise of digital/online, automation/datafication, (micro) casualization of labor, rise of atypical work (full-time employment is being replaced by contingent and flexible working biographies that are pieced together by individuals in constant states of transition and self-reinvention), cross-subsidizing work, portfolio careers, ‘boundaryless’ or ‘spiral staircase’ careers, dunkelziffer of freelancing, and a burgeoning focus on work as an arena for individuals to find meaning and purpose (meaningfulness derived from work as being purposeful and contributing to self-realization) since the late 1990s.

4. All of this leads to higher risk of coronary heart disease, work disability, increased blood pressure, depressive disorders, lack of innovation, professionals deciding to leave the profession. Bottom line: lack of control (over what happens to you and your work) plus high work pressure/ stress produces mental health disorders
5. in the medical literature a rich tradition of work outlines key work-related psychosocial risk factors for stress-related mental disorders (exhibiting the largest increased risk/incidence of SRD, varying from 60% to 90%), which generally seem to be typical for the media: effort and reward imbalance, low organisational justice, and unusual high job demands; and reason #2: this works vice versa: research that suggests clear relations between different kinds of worker well-being (pleasure & meaning), employee engagement, job performance, and overall quality of the work and the end-product or service being delivered;
6. What has the literature (and specifically media/communication/journalism studies) done to addres this thus far? Studies on (pseudo-problematization of) precarity and atypical work, Hesmondhalgh & Baker’s good work approach (similar to literature on meaningful work), Happy Productive Worker thesis
7. What can we (as scholars, educators, current or future media professionals) do? overall: mental health literacy, (macro) creative justice, (meso) collective organization & organized networks, good work-principled management, best industry practices, (micro) different/new individual mental models of media work.
mental health literacy: knowledge and beliefs about mental disorders which aid their recognition, management or prevention (Anthony Jorm, mid-1990s Australia, also founded mental health first aid training). Mental health literacy consists of several components, including:
the ability to recognise specific disorders or different types of psychological distress;
knowledge and beliefs about risk factors and causes;
knowledge and beliefs about self-help interventions;
knowledge and beliefs about professional help available;
attitudes which facilitate recognition and appropriate help-seeking; and
knowledge of how to seek mental health information.
