2016 Fan Studies conference paper on Three Stages of FandomLiza Potts
Outside of the Royal Hospital of St Bartholomew in London, fans of the television show Sherlock have left notes and messages behind--but for whom? On the walls, on the windows, and on a nearby telephone box, fans have left notes, musings, art, and hashtags.
Over the course of several years, fan participation has moved through three distinct phases. First, this participation was aimed squarely at content producers; namely, these fans spoke
directly to Steven Moffat and Mark Gattis in their writings and art, asking that the producers alter the show and respond to the fans. The second stage of these writings revolved around fans acknowledging each other as a community, leaving behind tumblr
links, hashtags, and responses as if asking to connect with each other. The third stage of participation relied heavily on fan fiction, with many of the notes discussing shipping (Johnlock), crossovers (Wholock), and sketches of fan art.
In effect, St. Bart’s has become a place where fans have created a space of participatory memory for themselves and their Sherlock fandom. Observing and analyzing their work over the past several years has made these three stages visible. For while the space is not sanctioned by the government or the producers of Sherlock, it has become an area where fans have agency to congregate, write, and respond.
At locations across the globe, people are creating impromptu spaces to memorialize and celebrate events. From the peace walls of Belfast to the memorials left after 9/11 in New York City, participants are writing on walls, leaving notes, and placing mementos on chain-link fences. While these spaces are outside of any officially sanctioned monument, they serve as a way for people to participate in memory-making activities.
Paris is a city where memory-making takes places in public cemeteries (in particular, at the grave sites of Jim Morrison and Oscar Wilde, which are literally covered in mementos) and on bridges (where lovers cover the chain-link fences with locks engraved with their names), the location where Princess Diana's fatal car crash occurred is of particular interest because of its international participation and resilience. While the immediate, overwhelming sense of mourning in 1997 was enormous, there are still participants who make pilgrimages to the site and participate in the space today, inscribing the space with writings in various languages, colors, and textures. Composing on the concrete slabs that surround the bridge above the tunnel where the crash occurred, these participants write of her loss, their shared grief, and their recovery. Examining this space in particular, we can discuss the writings of these participants, the spaces they inhabit, and the need for preserving and curating their participation.
The RCA interdisciplinary group consisting of fine arts, humanities, architecture, and communication design, coming together to explore the role of documentation, archive, fiction, voice, identity and imagination, in relation to our own work and relative to the work of other members of the group. A definition of document is ‘to record the details of an event, a process’. A definition of archive is ‘a collection of historical records relating to a place, organization, or family’. Therefore, the archive is almost documenting over time. This temporal location specific quality of research comparison is a focus of this research sub-group. Archives can function as visual references as well, we can look at history within the art and art within the history. We are advocates of the archives and are using fictional methods to foster the public's imagination about what happened, what should not have happened and what might happen in the future This group aims to find the ways in which the true nature of an artist is documented. The documentation of the presence of the artist (whether that be physical , metaphysical or even spiritual) provides the viewer with alternative forms and modes of communication between the artist and viewer, viewer and beyond. Identity is a developed invisible inner world, a whole subterranean world of one's own archive of memory
The self-archival of memories, thoughts, feelings and ideas, through the process of writing, sifting and editing, has always connected me with a highly-vocal inner-voice and with a sense of my true-identity. These temporal moments of self-documentation have at one-time-or-another, provided a sense of sanctuary and refuge through the achieving of greater clarity.
Fantasy is everything that was not there before, even if impossible. Invention is everything that was not there before, but not exclusively practical and not concerning aesthetics problems. Creativity is everything that was not there before, but achievable in an essential and global way. From many individual research projects where nothing seemed to fit, arrives a connection, a linkage, a place where it’s safe to explore and an environment of sharing, spontaneity and imagination. An evolution of the conversations necessary to both shape our research techniques and our relationships as collaborators.
The purpose of this research hub is to explore the ways in which artists work in different subjects. The topics discussed include literature, archives, fiction, sound, imagination, and identity. Our discussion every week as we go deeper in different topics to find mutual influence points, the release of content at different points in time has been affecting the creative thinking of artists.
The Role of Public Intellectuals in Cooperative Extension Anne Adrian
Shouldn't Extension experts, members of an organization that has always prided itself on providing impartial research-based information, share a place at the table with the nation’s leading public intellectuals? We contend that establishing a core group of public intellectuals at both the state and national levels of discourse should be a core strategy in helping us separate our message from others in this enormously competitive information environment. As a moral obligation Extension educators at all levels have a responsibility, not only as scholars but as public servants, to help put highly complicated, even controversial issues, into sharper perspective on behalf of their clients with the goal of improving their lives. “…no scholar, historian or anyone else is — merely by being a scholar — ethically excused from their own circumstances. We are also participants in our own time and place and cannot retreat from it…” Extension educators are now struggling to navigate their way across an increasingly steep, jagged divide between techno-skeptics, who harbor a deep mistrust of technology and its long-term implications, and techies, who, despite some misgivings, generally believe that each technological advance ultimately works to secure a better life for all of us. With this refinement has come a clearer understanding of the environmental costs associated with scientific and techno Who is better equipped to serve the bridging the gap that exists in understanding environmental costs, benefits, and technological process.
There will be an increasing need for public intellectuals from many different disciplines within Extension to explain how this new farming model will be expressed and how it ultimately will affect them. Herein lies an enormous opportunity for Extension — an opportunity for profound organizational transformation. This presentation was conducted at Galaxy 2013.

Keynote address at the Information Technology in Education itie 2016 conference held in Wuhan, China:
On the surface, makerspace and academic libraries might seem an incongruous match. The ever-changing, and seemingly chaotic environment of makerspace contrasts starkly with the stereotype of the quiet and reserved academic library. Sharing lessons learned while transforming an underutilized branch library into a vibrant hub of collaborative and problem-based learning, Colegrove explores emergent roles of makerspaces in university libraries, effecting learning, teaching, and serving the general community.

Meeting an Unmet Need: Extending the Learning Commons Concept Through On-Campus Partnerships and Branding
La Loria Konata, Georgia State University
Libraries have reinvented themselves to remain relevant in the 21st Century. Establishing a Learning Commons space is an example of libraries using a business model to remain relevant to its clientele – the students. The goal or end result sought for Learning Commons is to become integrated into the academic and cultural life of the Georgia State University undergraduate experience. To achieve this outcome, the Learning Commons department decided to embark on a new journey of collaboration and marketing. La Loria will detail methods used at Georgia State University Library to turn its Learning Commons space into a place. With programming, additional services such as writing support, and marketing, the Learning Commons is slowly becoming an example of library as place. She will describe examples of programming done with the marketing approach used and the outcome of each event; collaboration and partnership opportunities with various campus units such as the Office of New Student Programs and Orientations; and the focus on customer service via improving reference services.
La Loria Konata, <llkonata>, is the Learning Commons Coordinator at Georgia State University Library.

popular cultural is an important means of understanding any era in history. What people are watching, listening to, reading, making, and doing can tell us a lot about the time and society in which they lived the technology, the social norms, class difference, societal tensions, and more. In class we discussed how black culture started making its way into the mainstream in the 1930s. We also saw how music was used during the great depression era, and watched a film meant to illustrate the dangers of marijuana use amongst teens. For this exam, you are going to analyze an elemnt of 1930s popular culture. You will pick a topic ( a person, a film, an event, a radio show, a sport, etc.) and explain its history and background.
You will examine how the topic you picked reflects the time in which it was popular.
Why did it spread?
What did it mean to people?
What were the technologies involved?
Who was the audience?
was anyone excluded?
What else was going in America and around the world at the time?
These are just a few of the questions you can address in your essay as you try to understand a popular cultural phenomenon of the interwar period.
Topic ideas:
Speakeasies,dance halls and other hangouts.
Jazz( a specific jazz musician, a type of jazz, etc.)
Movies
Music
Popular literature
Boxing, basketball, &other sports Charles Lindbergh
Drug culture
Folklore & urban legends

A Study in Sherlock: Bridging the Digital Wilds & the Language ClassroomShannon Sauro
This reflective practice presentation builds on prior work that has looked at the use of fandom tasks (Sauro, 2014) for language learning. Such tasks include those that focus on fanfiction, defined by Jamison (2013) as "writing that continues, interrupts, reimagines, or just riffs on stories and characters other people have already written about" (p. 17). Initial investigation of fanfiction in the advanced English classroom has shown that collaborative fanfiction tasks that makes use of blog-based role-play to tell a missing moment from a story can be useful in bridging both language and literary learning (Sauro & Sundmark, in press 2016). However, although such tasks borrow from digital and linguistic practices found in online fan communities, the resulting stories do not fully reflect the linguistic or literary norms of the fanfiction in the digital wilds. This was a concern for language learners whose interest in publishing their online fanfiction was to communicate with online fans and fan communities.
The means of addressing this may lie in better integrating fan practices and fan voices in the tasks themselves and in actual classroom practice. This presentation, therefore, explores the revision and implementation of collaborative fanfiction tasks and instructions that do just that.
Building on previous blog-based fanfiction projects, the current project, A Study in Sherlock, was carried out as part of a course for students in the teacher education program at a Swedish university who were specializing in teaching English at the secondary school level. Students self-organized into small groups of 4-6 to write and publish online a collaborative mystery inspired by a Sherlock Holmes story. As part of their preparation, students were guided in the reading of several Sherlock Holmes mysteries, but were also required to read Sherlock Holmes fanfiction that had been identified by online fans as representative of the tropes and specific fan genres found in this type of fan writing. In addition, online several fanfiction writers were contacted to share writing activities they used when helping other novice fanfiction writers and these were incorporated into class instruction. Once completed, these stories were shared with online Sherlock Holmes fan communities.
Analysis of the language, content, and formatting of the 16 completed online stories as well as the reaction of fans, in particular to the six stories that were published to online fanfiction archives, revealed advantages for integrating fan practices into task design and teaching to support greater mastery of fanfiction genres in a manner more likely to reach (fan) readers and thereby link the digital wilds with the language classroom.

Hi,
Please assist with the literature review. The topic is charter school enrollment, parent choice, of
white parents in diverse urban areas. This should be the ongoing theme that connects the
articles. Why would white parents (who have lots of school choice) pick charter schools, or
diverse charter schools? Please use APA format
There are 12 articles, some longer than others, I do not expect you to read them all but to
thoroughly skim for main idea to right a well written literature review. 12 articles, $10 each.

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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.

7. Fandom refers to a community of people who are passionate about something, whether it’s a
film, a band, a television show, a book, or a sports team. [1] The growing availability of media
and social networks have provided individuals more opportunities to discover content and
then more easily find groups of like-minded people with whom they can share and exchange
proof of their fandom (discussions, writing, art, etc.).
How It’s Developing
For many, the idea of fandom may be most
readily associated with the television series
Star Trek and the Trekkies who led letter-
writing campaigns to extend the series and
attended conventions where they met the
actors and creators of the series. Fandom,
however, might find even earlier origins in
the Lisztomania frenzy over the pianist Franz
Liszt, the fans of the Sherlock Holmes
