This document explores the evolution of communication technologies from the telegraph in the 1830s to the modern internet. It discusses how the internet has allowed for near-instant global communication but also enables hacking and risks to privacy and security. China is presented as disconnecting itself from the global internet for security reasons, raising the question of whether Western nations should also consider disconnecting or limiting their internet access.
The document discusses the relationship between technology and human rights from historical and philosophical perspectives. It explores how weapons have empowered both the strong and weak over time. Simple weapons like rifles gave individuals power, while complex weapons amplified the power of authorities. The document also examines how the internet has both enabled free expression but also introduced new methods of censorship, surveillance, and lack of privacy. It questions whether we are heading toward an Orwellian or Huxleyan future as technology shapes society.

The power of mass self communication in national disastersunnyzhang0702
Eyewitnesses at the scene of the 2005 London bombings used their mobile phones to capture photos and videos of the aftermath and share them with news organizations like the BBC within minutes, transforming how breaking news is reported by providing immediate access to images; while these citizen journalist images provided a new perspective, they also raise issues around verifying accuracy, obtaining permissions, and respecting victims' privacy during vulnerable moments.
The power of mass self communication in national disastersunnyzhang0702
Citizen journalists used mobile phones to capture photos and videos of the 2005 London bombings, providing eyewitness images to news organizations within minutes; while these images gave a immediacy to coverage, they also raised ethical issues around verifying accuracy, obtaining permissions, and photographing victims without consent. The rapid spread of amateur content from mobile phones demonstrated how technology is transforming news gathering but also requires consideration of risks, rights, and respecting privacy in crisis situations.

An ecosystem is composed of communities of organisms and their physical environments. Producers (autotrophs) can produce their own food, while consumers (heterotrophs) obtain energy by eating producers or other consumers. Primary consumers eat producers, secondary consumers eat primary consumers, and decomposers break down dead organisms into detritus. A food chain represents a single pathway of energy transfer starting with a producer, while a food web depicts overlapping food chains within an ecosystem.
This document discusses effective vocabulary teaching strategies. It begins by highlighting the importance of vocabulary acquisition for communication and thinking.

The rest of the document outlines various strategies for presenting, practicing, and evaluating new vocabulary, including using illustrations, definitions, contexts, translations, cognates, and examples of different word types. It also discusses challenges in vocabulary teaching and the need for multiple exposures and practice opportunities for students to fully acquire new words.
This document discusses the generation gap between parents and children. Each generation believes the other does not understand them and wants to go in their own direction. However, each generation is a reflection of the other and shares a common thread. The truth is that no one is too old or too young to learn from those of other generations.
This document provides information on comparatives and superlatives in English. It explains that comparatives are used to compare two or more objects or people, and are formed by adding "-er" to adjectives of one syllable or "more" to adjectives of two or more syllables. Superlatives show the maximum or minimum degree and are formed by adding "-est" or using "the most". Examples of comparative and superlative forms are given for different adjective types. Exercises are included for students to practice forming comparatives and superlatives.
This document discusses approaches to teaching grammar and provides examples of tasks that can be used. It describes both descriptive and generative grammar. The inductive approach is suggested, proceeding from examples to help learners induce rules. Tasks should involve meaningful context and activities to internalize and generate rules. Errors should be prioritized and corrected based on communicative needs to avoid demotivation.

The document provides a history of the English language from its origins to modern English. It began as Anglo-Frisian dialects brought by Germanic settlers to Britain between the 5th-6th centuries AD. Over time, Old English dialects emerged before eventually being influenced by Norse invaders and later Norman French following the Norman conquest of 1066. This led to a period of Middle English before the language modernized from the 16th century onward, incorporating extensive vocabulary from Latin, Greek and other languages through globalization and imperialism.

The document discusses the history and challenges of regulating media in the UK. Historically, regulation was medium-specific but the internet has complicated this approach. There is a debate between censorship and self-regulation, with moves toward the latter. However, regulating the internet is difficult due to its global nature and borderless sharing of content. The future of regulation may focus more on interactive and video game media as these mediums continue to blur boundaries between platforms.

The document discusses issues around privacy, surveillance, and the changing boundaries between public and private in the digital era. It notes tensions between privacy rights and sharing information online through social media. Several examples are given of private information being accidentally or deliberately shared publicly, and risks to individuals' reputations. Questions are raised about how much control individuals have over their data and privacy on platforms owned by corporations.
This document summarizes a presentation by Aram Sinnreich on media innovation. It discusses how digital networks have disrupted traditional linear business models and cultural production. While industries lobby for stronger copyright laws, studies show the entertainment industry has still grown and "piracy" may benefit economies. The greatest threat is over-regulation that limits civil liberties and fair use. The presentation argues we need to abandon myths of scarcity and lone authorship, and instead of over-protection, prepare for a configurable culture through business, political and social innovation like copyleft and copyright reform.

Popular Issues in (Digital) Media LiteracyAlec Couros
A presentation on Popular & Contemporary issues in (Digital) Media Literacy for EC&I 831, Feb. 10/09, by Dr. Alec Couros. More on the course at http://eci831.wikispaces.com
The document discusses various topics related to technology and information control, including file sharing, social media, censorship, surveillance, denial of service attacks, and copyright. It argues that trying to legislate and control technological development through command and control is difficult. Instead, more open licensing and voluntary approaches may help guide technological progress in a democratic way.
The document discusses issues around privacy, social media, and the changing boundaries between public and private information in the digital era. It notes that private information is increasingly shared publicly through platforms like Facebook and lifecasting, and that both corporations and governments are engaging in more surveillance. Questions are raised about how willing sharing of personal information online could impact individuals' reputations and about the degree to which social media has reshaped traditional concepts of public and private.

Important dates mentioned include 1996 when an ISP was raided for obscenity, 2012 when David Cameron discussed mandatory web filters, and 2009 when extending cleanfeed filtering to certain websites was discussed. Reasons given for censorship include offense and harm. Views of figures like David Gauntlett on media harm studies and John Gilmore on internet routing around censorship are also summarized.
The Digital Economy Act was rushed through parliament back in April ahead of the election with 10% of the normal debating time that a bill of that size should get. Why? So Lord Mandelson, our unelected then Business Secretary, could appease his friends in the recording industry by introducing draconian laws that could see internet connections cuts and websites blocked without trial, possibly signalling the end of free wi-fi.

Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
