Dear AOIRst, "In social media network you cannot really control what people will say, but you can suggest what people will talk about". I have been desperately trying to search for the article with this quote which I have read two or three years ago. Unfortunately then I did not took note of the title of the article which I like to include in a research. Has anyone come across it (or something similar)? I will really be very grateful for the trace route! Thanks Norman Pena UPS (Phd Candidate) Rome, Italy

Dear colleagues, First of all, a thousand thanks to all who have responded both on-list and off-list: all most helpful as I continue to work through these issues. Because of various logistical considerations, I will need another week or so to garner more of some of the relevant information as suggested by both on-list and off-list responses. Presuming I thereby gain some clarity that can further be appropriately reported on this list, as I anticipate will be the case, I will most happily do so. (In addition, this would seem to make for a good case study to append to the AoIR ethics guidelines 2.0 - with any luck, will be able to write this up one of these days.) Again, a thousand thanks and I hope to have something useful soon as a return favor for all of the excellent responses and helpful suggestions. Best in the meantime, - c.

Blended Synchronous Learning Handbook Available for Download
by Lee, Mark 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Dear colleagues, In 2011-2013 the Australian Government Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT) provided funding for a project aimed at exploring Blended Synchronous Learning, which entails bringing together on-campus and distributed learners to partake in shared, real-time experiences. The project focused on three technologies—videoconferencing, web conferencing and 3D virtual worlds—as well as learning designs involving the use of these technologies to simultaneously engage students and teachers in collaborative activities irrespective of their location. An Australia and New Zealand-wide scoping survey was conducted, and seven case studies were followed and investigated through participatory evaluation. The Blended Synchronous Learning project team is pleased to announce that the OLT has approved the Blended Synchronous Learning Handbook without condition and it is now freely available for download from: - http://blendsync.org/handbook The Handbook includes a Blended Synchronous Learning Design Framework that offers pedagogical, technological and logistical recommendations for teachers attempting to design and implement blended synchronous learning lessons (see Chapter 14). It also includes a Rich-Media Synchronous Technology Capabilities Framework to support the selection of technologies for different types of learning activities (see Chapter 4), as well as a review of relevant literature, a summary of the Blended Synchronous Learning Scoping Study results, detailed reports of each of the seven case studies, and a cross-case analysis. For those who are interested, the BlendSync Final Report and External Evaluation Report are also from the OLT website at the following URLs: - http://www.olt.gov.au/system/files/resources/ID11_1931_Bower_Report_2014.pdf - http://www.olt.gov.au/system/files/resources/ID11_1931_Bower_Report_evaluat… A list of academic papers and links to recordings of presentations that have arisen out of the project is posted at http://blendsync.org/publications . The project team would also like to take this opportunity to invite all those with an interest in area to join the Blended Synchronous Learning Collaborator Network to abreast of events and updates in the future. Instructions on how to do this can be found at http://blendsync.org/network . There is not a lot of traffic from the network mailing list (usually less than one message a month), and those who are on the list can unsubscribe at any stage.

Relationships between text and media objects
by Daniel Jung 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Hi all, I have a question, or a request for literature. Short version: Is there a general taxonomy, or model, of text/image-relationships for web design? Long version: In his excellent book "Information Design : An Introduction" (John Benjamins 2002), p. 40, Rune Pettersson postulates four relationships between text and media objects, such as images or film. - redundant (similar information conveyed, such as sub-titles for TV) - relevant (supplementing information) - irrelevant (pictures and text and probably sound in TV programmes dealing with different things) - contradictory (disastrous in information design, but possibly beneficial for persuasion) This book describes a general framework and not specific design areas. The preface states explicitly that modern web design is not included. I have been looking for a kind of general taxonomy of relationships between text and images in web design, but haven't found anything really satisfactory. I have found some novel-, or work-specific articles. One of the most interesting articles is Thomas Wartenberg, 'Wordy Pictures: Theorizing the Relationship between Image and Text in Comics' in Meskin's "The Art of Comics: A Philosophical Approach" (2011). In a critique of Scott McCloud, he claims four functions of text in comics: thought or speech; narration; pictorial element; sonic event. But this is too specifically targetted on comics. I would like to see a model like Pettersson's, but more fleshed out, newer, and, above all, applied to (or coming from) web design. Does anyone have a pointer for me? Thank you very much! - Daniel

an ethical question or two
by Charles Ess 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Dear AoIRists, I am editing a piece for a forthcoming journal issue; it includes two screenshots of tweets from Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) and a screenshot of the Facebook page of a politician running for office in 2014, including their pictures and names. These are public figures very intentionally engaged in a public activity in a medium that functions as a de facto public sphere (or at least an approximation thereof). There is nothing in the screenshots that could be construed as potentially embarrassing, much less libelous, much less potentially warranting protection as private. I have gained the impression over the past few years that both in practice and in emerging guidelines codes, and law (specifically, based on what [little] I know of law surrounding freedom of speech and privacy issues in journalism in the U.S., the E.U., and Scandinavia), it is permissible to publish these without permission from the politicians in question. At most, if these were tweets and FB pages posted by U.S. politicians aimed at U.S. voters, we would have to note that the tweets and pictures were de facto copyright by their authors; to my knowledge, however, there is no parallel requirement on this side of the pond. Of course, it's usually when I think I know a good response to an ethical dilemma that I turn out to be missing something crucial - so: am I missing something crucial, or are we indeed on reasonably safe ground to publish the screenshots as is, no permissions required, no copyright notices included? Many thanks in advance, - charles ess Professor in Media Studies Department of Media and Communication University of Oslo P.O. Box 1093 Blindern NO-0317 Oslo Norway email: charles.ess(a)media.uio.no

AAG 2015 CFP – From Online Sweat Shops to Silicon Savannahs: Geographies of Production in Digital Economies of Low-Income Countries
by Mark Graham 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

*From Online Sweat Shops to Silicon Savannahs: Geographies of Production in Digital Economies of Low-Income Countries* AAG Annual Meeting <http://www.aag.org/cs/annualmeeting/call_for_papers>, Chicago, April 21-25, 2015 *Organizers:* Mark Graham <http://www.oii.ox.ac.uk/people/?id=165>, Nicolas Friederici <http://www.oii.ox.ac.uk/people/?id=332>, and Isis Hjorth <http://www.oii.ox.ac.uk/people/?id=169> University of Oxford Throughout the early 21st century, Internet and mobile phone access in developing countries has skyrocketed, and today the majority of people on the planet are connected through information and communication technologies (ICTs). Yet, while basic ICT access is increasingly level across income groups and geographies, production in the global digital economy is still, and maybe increasingly, dominated by incumbent multinational technology corporations or fast-scaling web startups. These businesses tend to roll out their products (with some local adaptation) across the globe, but maintain their coordinating and creative activities in places like Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv, or London, exploiting both agglomeration and dispersion economies in digital production (Malecki & Moriset, 2007; Moriset & Malecki, 2009). How does digital production in low-income countries fare in the face of this dominance? Policymakers and the private sector in several low-income countries (especially in Sub-Saharan Africa) have set out to transform their economies through ICTs, explicitly emphasizing local digital production. Two sectors that are often seen as promising are (1) low-skill/cost-competition, such as business process outsourcing and digital microwork, and (2) high-skill/entrepreneurial innovation, such as startups developing and commercializing mobile and online applications. However, what are the concrete and realistic potentials and possibilities for low-income countries to become important hubs for digital production? What are palpable economic outcomes of Kenya’s status as the “Silicon Savannah” or Lagos as the “Silicon Lagoon,” and who are the winners and losers of local ICT entrepreneurship and innovation? Do ICTs really deliver economic inclusion and employment to remote geographies and low-income groups, or are we witnessing the rise of online sweatshops that further enhance exploitation of vulnerable populations? This session will explore these themes, encouraging contributions from a variety of perspectives. We invite authors to consider digital production in low-income/developing countries through lenses such as: - Empirical or theoretical perspectives on digital production and its (uneven) geographies - Discourse around digital production and its promises and risks - Distributions of value creation and extraction across actor groups (winners/losers) - Tensions of scaling versus local adaptation in digital production, in application to geography and inclusion/exclusion effects - Uneven production geographies within countries, in particular, differences and divides between rural/peri-urban/urban clusters - Socio-demographic analyses of economic actors engaging in digital production - Case studies of low-skill/cost-competition digital production (e.g., business process outsourcing, microwork, etc.) - Case studies of high-skill/entrepreneurial innovation in digital production (e.g., mobile/online applications startups, technology innovation hubs) - Analyses and recommendations for local and international policy pertaining to digital production *Submission Procedure:* To be considered for the session, please send your abstract of 250 words or fewer, to: mark.graham(a)oii.ox.ac.uk, nicolas.friederici(a)oii.ox.ac.uk, and isis.hjorth(a)oii.ox.ac.uk The deadline for receipt of abstracts is October 1 2014. Notification of acceptance will be before October 7. All accepted papers will then need to register for the AAG conference at aag.org.
