The document discusses the opportunities and challenges of increased participation in internet culture. It finds that while internet usage in India has grown significantly, with over 120 million users, only 19% of users actively create or share content online. New media tools have allowed for more interactivity and collective participation. However, barriers like lack of skills, tools and interest prevent many from content creation. Increased participation culture through the internet can empower users but also raises issues around transparency, gatekeeping and ethics that challenge traditional media forms.

Since the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project first started tracking teen cell phone use, the age at which American teens acquire their first cell phone has consistently grown younger. In Pew Internet's 2004 survey of teens, 18% of 12-year-olds owned a cell phone. In 2009, 58% of 12 year-olds own a cell phone. We also have found that cell phone ownership increases dramatically with age: 83% of teens age 17 now own a cell phone, up from 64% in 2004.
Mary will discuss the Pew Internet Project’s latest research on Americans’ use of social media, including how different demographic groups use various platforms. She’ll also present findings from a recent report looking at the phenomenon of “Facebook fatigue,” and help us to understand how usage patterns might be shifting in the future.

Online Demographics and Online Use Habit of Indian Women: An OverviewSantosh C. Hulagabali
The presentation, titled 'Online Demographics and Online Use Habit of Indian Women: An Overview', attempts to bring Indian women netizens in limelight. It is presumed and apprehended, commonly, that the men have a monopoly over access to Internet in India. However, the research findings reveal that the women using Internet, in particular and technology in general, are increasing exponentially. On the other hand, the Indian women are considerably making their identity felt in as software professionals, content writers, transcriptions, online instructors, editors, information scientists etc. are women professional these days. It also traces the detailed findings of the research reports undertaken so far to understand Indian women Internet users and their use habits.
Lee Rainie will discuss networked information and the different ways users receive, process, create, and share it. He will describe the ways in which the new media ecosystem has affected the way people learn things and make decisions. And he will share Pew Internet findings about where major media organizations fit into the ecosystem for their audiences.
Lee Rainie explores the role of social networks – the technological kind as well as the real-world kind – in shaping the way people gather community information and make sense of it.
In this talk to medical librarians (conference website: https://3bythesea.pbworks.com/Program), Lee Rainie covered how e-patients and their caregivers have become a force in the medical world. In addition, he looked at the many ways that e-patients are using the internet to research and respond to their health needs and to share their stories using social networking sites, blogs, Twitter, and other social media.
Lee also discussed how medical librarians can exploit Pew Internet’s tech-user typology to find new ways for engaging e-patients and their families.

Trends in internet use - how public radio fits inLee Rainie
This combines a speech given to the Public Radio Program Directors in Cleveland and a webinar to public broadcasters arranged by the National Center for Media Engagement.
Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center Internet Project, shows how the large, loosely knit social circles of networked individuals expand opportunities for learning, problem solving, decision making, and personal interaction. The new social operating system of “networked individualism” requires us to develop networking skills and strategies, work on maintaining ties, and balance multiple overlapping networks. The “triple revolution” that has brought on this transformation: the rise of social networking, the capacity of the Internet to empower individuals, and the always-on connectivity of mobile devices. Drawing on extensive evidence, Rainie examines how the move to networked individualism has driven changes in organizational structure, job performance criteria, and the way people interact in workplaces. He presents a glimpse of the new networked enterprise and way of working.

Pew Internet Director Lee Rainie was asked to present about the state of social media, in particular how non-profit groups might think about using social media to promote their missions. He cites the newest data from Pew Internet Project surveys and describes how the “messaging environment” for non-profits is changing. He also describes how digital technologies affect the operations and outreach strategies of members of organizations. More: pewinternet.org
The findings of this research study (purchase on Amazon.com) examines the impact social media has on consumers and decision-makers around the world and characterizes the impact of social influence models. The Social Mind research explores the best practices of using social business as a platform to strengthen sustainable methods for working and living in new, interactive and collaborative business world. It identifies key characteristics and insights into the engagement behaviors of influencers and individuals, and how organizations can maximize reach and influence to execute on what we call the new Principals of Engagement in the Millennium.
Social business is dynamically changing the face of human interaction and communications globally. The emergence of new social behaviors and interrelationships between individuals, organizations, thought leaders and influencers are evolving in new and previously unforeseen ways primarily because of social media networks and peer groups.
A disruption is in the making, but this time, human behavior is the driver, not technology. People want and need to get the information they need at the time they desire it, especially from those they consider to be experts. We are returning to the “apple cart” of yesteryear. However, this time around we are armed with digital devices to extend our global ability to talk with the companies and people who inform our decisions.
This paradigm shift is a major communications innovation in all markets, which is radically changing the way people and organizations engage and behave online. There is also a strong link between social networking and what might be called “a new global anthropology” that is developing because of these new behaviors, interactions and interrelationships between cultures enabled through social business.
Over the past three years Vanessa DiMauro, Peter Auditore and myself, all Society for New Communications Research fellows, have embarked on a series of research studies to understand this new and evolving business platform and its impact on social communications and influence.

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.

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.

10. “ While to adults the Internet primarily means the World Wide Web, for children it means email, chat, games and here they are already content producers. Too often neglected, these communication and entertainment focused activities, by contrast with the information-focused uses at the centre of public and policy agendas, are driving emerging media literacy. Through such uses, children are most engaged— multi-tasking, becoming proficient at navigation and manoeuvre so as to win, judging their participation and that of others”- Livingstone , (2003, pp.15-16) ,

13. Hypothesis Internet as a communication medium has increased the ‘active participation’ of Citizens individually and socially in the media content when compared to other media forms. Internet tools especially new media tools have increased the interactivity between the communities there by increasing the ‘communication competence’ of individuals, initiating ‘self organized action’ and influencing decision making process. Therefore Participation culture can result in collective and active social participation of all forms of groups in the society .
