What can you say with a handshake?
The Art of the Handshake
Do you see anything wrong with this handshake?
When Microsoft founder Bill Gates shook hands with South Korea President Park Geun-hye, the country was outraged!
Why?
His one-hand shake in Korean culture - and also in Asia - is notably casual, done only when the other party is a good friend, of the same or younger age.
Using one hand with the other tucked in the pants pocket is considered rude in South Korea, done when one is expressing superiority to the other
Handshakes can “say” a lot!
Handshakes gone wrong
Definition
Nonverbal communication = any meaning conveyed through sounds, behaviors, and artifacts other than words
we use nonverbal communication to share meaning with others
nonverbal behaviors are typically sent with intent…
However, people can derive meaning from your nonverbal behaviors whether they are intentional or not
Nonverbal Communication
What is she saying?
One person will be the actor and the other person will be the guesser
The actor will face the screen or have the list of 10 actions on the next page in front of them
The Actor is to act out the phrases nonverbally without using any spoken words
The guesser’s job is just that-guess that your partner is trying to convey
Guessers write down your answers and number them #1-10
See how many messages you can accurately convey without using any spoken words
Nonverbal Exercise
Ask a friend to do this with you…
1. Shame on you
2. What time is it?
3. Sit next to me
4. Calm down
5. I can’t hear you
6. I’m confused
7. I’m glad that is over
8. He’s crazy

Functions of Nonverbal Communication
We use nonverbal communication to duplicate verbal communication
Obvious examples include a head-nod or a head-shake to duplicate the verbal messages of “yes” or “no”
When we duplicate our verbal message with nonverbals we use things that are recognizable to most people within a particular cultural group
Functions of Nonverbal Communication
We use nonverbal communication to replace verbal communication.
If someone asks you a question, instead of a verbal reply “yes” and a head-nod, you may choose to simply nod your head without the accompanying verbal message
When we replace verbal communication with nonverbal we use nonverbal behaviors that are easily recognized by others in our cultural group
Functions of Nonverbal Communication
We use nonverbal cues to complement verbal communication
Example:
If a fri.

What Science Fiction Can Teach Us About Building Communities: EdinburghDawn Foster
Presented at LinuxCon Europe in Edinburgh.
Communities are one of the defining attributes that shape every open source project, not unlike how Asimov's 3 laws of robotics shape the behavior of robots and provide the checks and balances that help make sure that robots and community members continue to play nicely with others. When looking at open source communities from the outside, they may seem small and well-defined until you realize that they seem much larger and complex on the inside, and they may even have a mind of their own, not unlike the TARDIS from Doctor Who. We can even learn how we should not behave in our communities by learning more about the Rules of Acquisition and doing the opposite of what a good Ferengi would do. My favorite rules to avoid include, "Greed is eternal", â"You can always buy back a lost reputation" and "When in doubt, lie". This session focuses on tips told through science fiction.
Educators know that learning happens best when learners are motivated and supported, so how can we support learning activities where students use the technology at their disposal? Our faculty used mobile and web technologies to create interactive tours and collaborative field research for students to engage with content situated in authentic contexts. Building on this experience, the Mobile Learning Incubator has been evaluating the integration of game elements into newer field research tools. In this session, we'll get in touch with our inner college student to understand the breadth and scope of mobile as a learning tool, synthesize our different perspectives in small groups, analyze and evaluate how current uses of mobile in higher education teaching and learning support these perspectives, and create a set of challenges and strategies around mobile learning for higher education IT to address.
OUTCOMES: Learn about several types of mobile-enhanced T&L activities * Inhabit a student's view of mobile * Create and share a range of potential learning activities based on that perspective * Evaluate how IT can address mobile learning needs, based on a T&L focus

English 113A
Rhetorical Prospectus
Answer the questions below as fully as you can about your chosen topic
for the “Adding to a Conversation” essay. Be as reflective and detailed as
possible. Remember you are trying, in a sense, to convince me as your
potential “editor” both that your topic is worthy of your and others’ time,
and that you’ve sufficiently researched what others have said to be
prepared to contribute to the conversation.
1. Why am I invested in this topic? Why do I care? How does it matter to
me?
2. Summarize the nature of the conversation about your topic in 2-3
paragraphs. Be sure to include the variety of positions people hold
about your topic—i.e. don’t reduce it to a pro/con or argument or
either/or topic—the groups which hold these different positions, and
the reasons these different groups might take the positions they do.
3. What is your purpose in “adding to this conversation”? What do you
want to communicate with your paper? (e.g., inform, persuade, argue,
shoot down another position, propose a solution, etc.)
4. Who do you want to address your paper to? Why this group given your
purpose and your reading of the conversation?
5. What do you think this audience needs to know or consider that they
don’t already know?
6. What kind of reaction do you want to get from your readers? What do
you hope they’ll do as a result of reading? (e.g. take a specific action,
change their opinions, get angry, etc.)
7. What kinds of written sources will you need to help you accomplish
your purpose?
8. What kinds of written sources will be most convincing or needed by
your audience? Why?
9. What other kinds of information can you draw off of in this paper
(personal experience, surveys, etc.)?
10. If you could imagine publishing this paper in a public venue, where
would you like it to appear?
11. What questions do you have about writing this paper? What do you
think will be most difficult about what you plan to do?
Connected, but alone?
Sherry Turkle, March 2012
Just a moment ago, my daughter Rebecca texted me for good luck. Her text said, "Mom, you will rock." I love this. Getting that text was like getting a hug. And so there you have it. I embody the central paradox. I'm a woman who loves getting texts who's going to tell you that too many of them can be a problem.
Actually that reminder of my daughter brings me to the beginning of my story. 1996, when I gave my first TEDTalk, Rebecca was five years old and she was sitting right there in the front row.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

5. The
other
thing
you
learn
when
traveling
is
how
others
view
your
own
culture
6. Which
is
oRen
quite
different
from
your
own
percepSon…
7. Behavioral
Programming
In
Japan,
people
bow
oRen
–
even
on
the
phone!
ARer
4
years
there,
my
body
language
became
a
weird
mix
at
Smes…
8. Kiasu?
Society
and
culture
shape
behavior.
Singaporeans
“love
to
queue”
maybe
because
they
are
worried
about
missing
out.
9. “The
Accident
of
Birth”
ARer
living
in
6
countries
and
visiSng
dozens,
my
current
view
is
that
our
character
is
dominated
by
our
cultural
and
societal
programming.
This
is
not
a
happy
thought
for
me.
10. Just
like
you
computer
is
approached
by
viruses,
we
are
invaded
by
ideas
all
day
long
12. Issues
• Default
se^ngs
• Get
in
the
way
of
social
interacSons
• Undermine
happiness
The
key
problem
is:
those
ideas
are
not
YOU
and
do
not
reflect
what
makes
YOU
happy
And
they
get
in
the
way
of
your
social
life.
This
will
be
the
focus
for
the
rest
of
the
talk
14. Field
ObservaSon
I
looked
around
me
for
learning
about
social
interacSons.
I’ll
share
some
observaSons
here.
15. How
do
you
feel
about
this
guy
eaSng
alone?
If
so,
you
might
have
enjoyed
discovering
local
culture
&
quirks
16. A
photography
project
in
Singapore
interviewing
people
dining
alone.
The
social
sSgma
is
there
but
many
are
actually
quite
self-‐confident
and
like
being
by
themselves.
17. A
social
place?
Cafes
look
like
social
places
but
quite
oRen
this
is
closer
to
what
you
see…
18. Is
this
seat
free?
This
is
a
situaSon
where
you
might
like
to
have

social

This
is

example

Note
the

it
looks…
21. Field
Research:
Santa
Con
(London)
My
own
experiment
with
idenSty
in
a
a
special
costumed
group.
Santa
Con
is
as
much
about
partying
as
it
is
about
Christmas
:-‐)
33. The
Real
Trouble:
Disengagement
The
reason
people
are
guarded
when
engaging
or
being
engaged
is
because
there
is
no
clear
Sme
limit
to
the
interacSon.

• How
long
should
you
wait?
• Is
it
based
on
%me,
or
distance?
• Is
it
a
percentage
of
the
total
Sme/
distance?
• Is
it
the
same
whether
the
flight
is
one
hour
or
thirteen
hours?
40. Classics
• “Hi!
I’m
Ben”
(handshake)
• “Heading
home?”
Some
classic
lines.
Second
one
is
much
beler
as
it
starts
a
conversaSon,
not
just
a
polite
exchange.

When

(1)

That’s
