software to video record interaction through Skype video conference
by Gabriela Bulla 25 Dec '10

25 Dec '10

Dear AIR list members, My name is Gabriela da Silva Bulla, I am a PhD student in Applied Linguistics at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS, Porto Alegre, Brazil), and my PhD research proposal focuses on the joint construction of collaborative learning communities in online additional language courses. Therefore, one of the interactional data I am going to deal with is going to be generated while participants are engaged in pedagogical activities through Skype video conferences. Thus, I would like to know if any of you could give me a little help by *suggesting any software that would make it possible for me to video record the computer screen and the participants’ voices at the same time while interacting through Skype video conferences*. Thanks in advance! Sincerely, Gabriela. -- Gabriela da Silva Bulla Doutoranda em Linguística Aplicada (PPG-Letras) Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Porto Alegre/RS, Brasil gsbulla(a)gmail.com

IXmaps project
by Paterson, Nancy(Academic) 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

Item for posting: IXmaps - TrGen Please consider downloading and running our tracegen program - TrGen - it assists to populate the database for the project. Thanks! [http://www.ixmaps.ca] is an interactive tool under development designed to permit internet users to see the route that data packets take across North America. Project goals are to render visible to users interesting aspects of the internet core related to everyday usage, e.g. NSA surveillance, deep packet inspection (DPI), carrier hotel ownership, energy (in)efficiency; so as to counteract the tendency to regard the internet core as an immaterial, virtual, placeless 'cloud', by showing its geographical and physical concreteness and contingency; promote an understanding of the internet core amenable to public policy engagement; develop a research tool for conducting critical internet backbone investigations, and for presenting findings publicly; and enroll others (users, activists, researchers) in building a database of internet sites of interest. IXmaps is affiliated with The New Transparency Project: Surveillance and Social Sorting project at the Faculty of Information, University of Toronto. The project team consists of Dr. David J. Phillips, Associate Professor and Chair of Doctoral Studies, Faculty of Information and Dr. Andrew Clement, Professor, Faculty of Information and Coordinator, Information Policy Research Program as well as Dr. Nancy Paterson, Associate Professor, Ontario College of Art & Design and post-doctoral fellow, Faculty of Information. Happy Holidays!

23 Dec '10

Can anyone provide a citable statement of how SIPRNet started? -- it's where the WikiLeaks cables came from? What person/agency came up with the idea of putting all the US State Dept and US Defense Dept diplomatic secret and confidential cables on the internal net to keep all of them in the know.

by Gordon Carlson 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

*** Please distribute widely. This is a perfect target for Internet and Non-Internet researchers alike. Works from practitioners is also welcome. A PDF of this document is available on the website. *** *SCLCR Call for Media (CfM): 2011 Winter Conference on Conceptions in Communication Research* The Society for Conceptual Logistics in Communication Research (SCLCR; http://www.sclcr.com) is proud to announce its 2011 Winter Conference: Conceptions in Communication. SCLCR works to connect scholars, students, and practitioners in innovative and useful ways. The 2011 Winter Conference on Conceptions in the study of communication seeks your submissions. This is a virtual conference, presenters are not required to physically travel to a conference location but instead provide their presentations to viewers online. It’s completely free to submitters and viewers. The goal of the conference is to share the work being done with conceptual logistics in communication research. In the context of SCLCR, Communication is not treated as a closed “field” or “discipline.” Every field serves and is served by human communication. As such, SCLCR and its conference are neither inter-disciplinary nor trans-disciplinary; instead we approach communication as an important endeavor studied via any number of conceptions. We use the term conceptual logistics to address the ability to think about and apply these conceptions in ways that aid communication research. Our emphasis is on the dynamic character of conceptualizing in the research process. *Submission Possibilities:* This online conference encourages the use of multiple media and formats. As such you are invited to submit work that explicates a communication conception (such as a theory like “framing” or a method like “network analysis” whether established or new) using any number of approaches including, but not limited to: - Novel Diagrams, especially graphical ones - Interactive Applications - Video - Animation - Comics or Cartoons - Audio presentations - Photography, edited or not - Written Essays (maximum 5,000 words) Originality is encouraged and group works are accepted. You might address a conception you are currently using in your research or perhaps this is your chance to look into an area new to you. Interactive video or audio based items should not exceed 10 minutes in length and, if applicable, take no more than 200 megabytes. Essays should be no longer than 5,000 words long and follow APA style guidelines. Visit the conference website at www.sclcr.com/conference *Open Society:* All content will be available to all members of SCLCR. The conference is open in the sense that any member may submit and any member may “attend” the virtual conference for no charge. Further, members may comment on the materials to provide feedback and foster discussion. Work will be posted indefinitely and be accessible to members in the future. You are submitting your work under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial No Derivatives license which protects your work: others may reference, build on, and share it with others but they must credit you and cannot use your work for commercial purposes. And best of all you retain the rights to your own work so you can use it later on without worrying about technicalities or paperwork. *Journal of Conceptual Logistics:* Selected presenters will be asked to submit their work for inclusion in SCLCR’s multimedia journal, The Journal of Conceptual Logistics. Authors will be contacted by the Journal’s editors. *Submissions, Contacts, and Questions:* Submissions are due on or before midnight *Jan 15, 2011* as a great way to ring in a New Year. Submissions will be evaluated via blind review. You will notified about the status of your presentations by *January 30, 2011* when the journal entries will be posted. To submit, ask questions, or get more details visit the conference website at http://www.sclcr.com/conference You may direct questions to the conference director: gordon(a)sclcr.com We look forward to your submissions. Thank you. -Gordon Carlson -Director, Society for Conceptual Logistics in Communication Research -http://www.sclcr.com

programs in social media
by lhellers＠endicott.edu 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

I am hoping the readers of air-l can direct me to academic programs in social media. I am finding myself frustrated because when I search using a variety of key words, I end up with the urls of colleges and university's social media sites, not actual degree granting programs. (I did find the program at Birmingham School of Media). Thanks in advance! Laurel Hellerstein, Ph.D Dean, School of Communication Endicott College
