AU - McConnel, J. T2 - International Journal of Research and Method in Education AB - Eye tracking methodology offers insights into human attention, decision-making processes, and user behaviours. In the context of teacher learning, data generated from eye-tracking technology has the potential to provide important information about teachers’ behavioural patterns and cognitive processes that may or may not be occurring during learning experiences. This review analyses existing studies that use eye tracking methodology for studying teacher learning. The authors accessed three different databases (ERIC, PsycNet, and EBSCOHost) for their review. An iterative process of reviewing and coding the articles led to an in-depth review of 10 recently published articles. Emergent themes resulted from the in-depth review and include information processing, multimedia learning, learning tools and resources, and expert-novice knowledge construction. The reviewed articles also highlight how eye tracking can be used to determine teachers’ engagement with learning material, reading patterns, and sense-making strategies. Additional study characteristics, including context, data sources, eye tracking device and metrics were also reviewed. Results of this review shed light on how educational researchers can effectively use eye tracking methodology to investigate teacher learning at different career stages. This, in turn, can inform educational stakeholders about how to optimize learning opportunities and environments.

ER - TY - JOUR TI - “Evil Is Part of the Territory”: Inventing the Stepmother in Self-Help Books AU - Renegar, Valerie R. AU - Cole, Kirsti K. T2 - Women's Studies in Communication AB - The “wicked stepmother” is a popular cultural commonplace, but when women become stepmothers, many find themselves trapped by the cliche with few resources to navigate or resist it. In this article, we examine the rhetoric of self-help books, one of the few print genres aimed at stepmothers. We argue that these texts reify a particular identity by perpetuating cultural stereotypes, reinforcing negative connotations about stepmothers, and providing inadequate solutions to common issues that arise as a result. The books reinscribe the primacy of biological mothering and relegate stepmothers to a secondary status at the same time as they subject stepmothers to the contradictory expectations of intensive mothering. The privilege of motherhood is granted, deflected, and denied across these advice books. We seek to move beyond the negative expectations of this common parenting role and point to the inadequacies of the solutions offered in self-help books to expand and diversify the visibility of and possibilities for alternative familial configurations.

This volume adds to the growing study of nontheatrical films by focusing on the ways filmmakers developed and audiences encountered ideas about race, identity, politics, and community outside the borders of theatrical cinema. The contributors to Screening Race in American Nontheatrical Film examine the place and role of race in educational films, home movies, industry and government films, anthropological films, and church films as well as other forms of nontheatrical filmmaking. From filmic depictions of Native Americans and films by 1920s African American religious leaders to a government educational film about the unequal treatment of Latin American immigrants, these films portrayed—for various purposes and intentions—the lives of those who were mostly excluded from the commercial films being produced in Hollywood. This volume is more than an examination of a broad swath of neglected twentieth-century filmmaking; it is a reevaluation of basic assumptions about American film culture and the place of race within it.

Public- and expert-facing communication AU - Reid, Gwendolynne AU - Anson, Chris M. T2 - Science Communication on the Internet AB - This chapter describes a qualitative case study of digitally-mediated production and communication of research in the biological sciences. The study focuses on the citizen science “Heartbeats Project,” conceived by a U.S.-based evolutionary biology lab to explore the data behind the well-known rule that, on average, mammals’ hearts beat one billion times per lifetime. Our analysis describes three ways that polycontextuality and context collapse figured in the team’s production of digital, spoken, and print-based genres arising from their work. These dynamics complicate traditional understandings of the relationships between scientific and public genres, as well as existing conceptions of composition, genre, authors, and audiences in the production and circulation of scientific findings and the (re)production of science.

We must understand how skills "influence and shape the discursive activities surrounding their use" (Selber, 1994). This paper reports the results of a study of people trained in humanities disciplines like communication, English, writing studies, technical communication, etc., on how they have found means to employ their training in their workplace and keep what is humanistic about writing and communicating at the foreground of their interactions with information technologies. Instead of focusing on technology alone, this research encourages a unified approach to preparing students for the workplace.

By recovering the pervasive influence of Aristotelian faculty psychology on The Spanish Tragedy, Aristotelian ethics on Titus Andronicus, Lucretian atomism on Hamlet, Galenic pneumatics on Antonio’s Revenge and Epictetian Stoicism on The Duchess of Malfi, this book reveals how the very atmospheres and ontological assumptions of revenge tragedy exert their own kind of conditioning dramaturgical force. The book also revitalises our understanding of how the Renaissance stage, even at its most lurid, functions as a unique space for the era’s practical, vernacular engagement with received philosophy.

Through this work, the culture of teaching and learning on our campus is being transformed from teacher-centered to student-centered instruction that promotes higher-order thinking across a diverse array of disciplines. Participating faculty engage in intensive faculty development; create discipline-specific classroom activities and assignments; become adept at providing students feedback on their thinking skills; and engage in a learning community to share and provide peer feedback on pedagogical innovations. The primary student learning outcome (SLO) is for students to apply critical and creative thinking skills and behaviors in the process of solving problems and addressing questions. Methods to achieve the institutional transformation include implementation of a comprehensive faculty development focused on the use of evidence-based pedagogy that promotes higher-order thinking, and rigorous outcomes assessment to provide means for continual improvement. The program has expanded into multiple phases, and involves strategies to create a more sustainable culture of critical and creative thinking through formal and informal learning and scholarship.

While scholars of historical television have dismissed formal criticism for its ignorance of contexts of production and reception, I argue that the content and form of TV in its developmental years directly contextualize industry and society. In its first decades of mass use, television refigured spatial relationships by creating an uncanny liminality between the public sphere of commerce and entertainment and the private sphere of the home. These newly blurred boundaries had profound implications for postwar conceptions of gender, home, and family. Through both form and content, programs as wide-ranging as the science-fiction anthology The Twilight Zone (CBS, 1959–64) and domestic sitcoms The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (CBS, 1950–58) and The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (ABC, 1952–66) developed modes of address to articulate and work through their viewers’ anxieties. In order to probe the wide-reaching implications of the new medium’s intimate address, I argue that scholars of historical television must be as attentive to program content, textuality, and form as they are to technological and industrial developments.

T2 - 2019 23RD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE INFORMATION VISUALISATION (IV): BIOMEDICAL VISUALIZATION AND GEOMETRIC MODELLING & IMAGING AB - The Virtual St Paul's Cathedral Project (https://vpcp.chass.ncsu.edu/) demonstrates the capabilities of digital modeling technology for visualizing the past through simultaneous integration of multiple sets and kinds of data. It also illustrates the challenges model-makers face when the historic data on which they depend for accuracy is fragmentary, missing, or contradictory. The Virtual Cathedral Project addresses these challenges by distinguishing between portions of the visual model based on verifiable data (such as measurements of the original structures either surviving from contemporary surveys or derived from archaeological examination of ruins) and portions based on representative data (such as information derived from other examples of the same kind of structure). Often, the modeling of any specific structure includes both kinds of data; our model of the Cathedral's deanery, for example, combines descriptive data about size and arrangement of rooms derived from a contemporary survey of the property with representational data from other cathedral deaneries of that time about construction materials and other features of the building's appearance. This presentation uses the process we employed in recreating the Cathedral's West Front to illustrate how we support our claims to have created a historically accurate model of St Paul's Cathedral and its environs while acknowledging that our use of the word “accurate” is relative to the quality of the data available to us for visualization.

Even when addressing the fascination with black skin, common in pre-classical cinema, we inevitably find ourselves face to face with "black presence," that ineffable, limited conception of blackness. This essay shows how black images in silent and early sound films exposit soul, pleasure, and excess. With Duke Ellington's first film role in Dudley Murphy's film, Black and Tan (1929), as a test case, I shift attention from black skin to black soul. Confronting the limits of traditional iconic image analysis—the seemingly clear criteria for recognizing blackness—I show how the aesthetics of photogénie, one of cinema's earliest theories, shares the overdetermined tendencies of the folk concept "soul" as problematized during the Harlem Renaissance and early black film era. Soul seems to direct black image analysis to an impasse: aesthetics leading in one direction (haunted by the specter of photogénie), while politics veer off in the other. Yet this needn't be an either/or dilemma. The essay shows that a renewed emphasis on aesthetic cinematic effects, not reducible to meaning in the sense of conventional interpretation, complements established political approaches to African American Cinema.

T2 - LEARNED PUBLISHING AB - Over the past decade, text recycling (TR; AKA ‘self‐plagiarism’) has become a visible and somewhat contentious practice, particularly in the realm of journal articles. While growing numbers of publishers are writing editorials and formulating guidelines on TR, little is known about how editors view the practice or how they respond to it. We present results from an interview‐based study of 21 North American journal editors from a broad range of academic disciplines. Our findings show that editors' beliefs and practices are quite individualized rather than being tied to disciplinary or other structural parameters. While none of our participants supported the use of large amounts of recycled material from one journal article to another, some editors were staunchly against any use of recycled material, while others were accepting of the practice in certain circumstances. Issues of originality, the challenges of rewriting text, the varied circulation of texts, and abiding by copyright law were prominent themes as editors discussed their approaches to TR. Overall, the interviews showed that many editors have not thought systematically about the practice of TR, and they sometimes have trouble aligning their beliefs and practices.

Edited by richard s. pressman San Antonio, TX: Early American Reprints, 2017 326 pp. For nearly a decade now scholars of early American literature have been calling for readers and scholars to move beyond Charlotte Temple, Susanna Rowson's most popular work, and to pay more attention to the wide variety of texts Rowson produced in her long and constantly evolving career. In their 2011 special issue of Studies in American Fiction "Beyond Charlotte Temple," Jennifer Desiderio and Desiree Henderson argue that "Susanna Rowson is an author who deserves our full and engaged attention" (xxvii), and the essays in their valuable collection suggest that scholars are indeed taking notice of Rowson's plays, poetry, schoolbooks, and multiple novels. Despite this very welcome development, however, print editions of works other than Charlotte remain few and far between, thus making it challenging for scholars to introduce Rowson in all her variety to students or for nonspecialists to encounter Rowson as an author of far more than the sentimental phenomenon that is Charlotte. A new edition of Trials of the Human Heart (1795) published by Early American Reprints is thus a very welcome addition to the list of Rowson texts available in print. Aside from its being "the first best-selling novel in the United States," a key reason for the popularity of Charlotte Temple among teachers of early American literature has surely been its brevity; it's easy to find a place for Charlotte on a crowded syllabus. While Trials of the Human Heart is decidedly not brief (it was originally published in four volumes), it has other qualities that recommend it to educators trying to engage their students' interest in early American literature and culture. [End Page 601] Its heroine, Meriel Howard, is in many ways far more intriguing and likely to provoke lively discussion than poor Charlotte. The "trials" Meriel faces over the course of the sixteen years covered in the novel include attempted rape-incest at the hands of the man she believes to be her father, her nearly becoming a prostitute in order to provide for her destitute mother, an unhappy marriage, and shipwreck. As the novel draws to a close, however, the mood lightens and Meriel reunites with a lost true love and with her real parents, and finally achieves a happy marriage and home. These events surely make for an exciting narrative, but what gives the novel greater depth and interest is the fact that we hear these events narrated by Meriel herself in letters to her friend Celia, who remains throughout the novel in the French convent where Meriel herself spent her childhood. The epistolary form of the novel enables readers to consider Meriel's own explanations of how she chooses to respond to the various villains and misfortunes she encounters, and to ponder whether the naïve Meriel of the early chapters gains wisdom along with experience. Along with its epistolarity, gothic and picaresque elements in the novel make it an ideal vehicle for discussing the various subgenres of the eighteenth-century novel. The supplementary materials in this Early American Reprints edition are excellent. The footnotes are helpful enough to enable undergraduates to read the novel, and the introduction provides useful, concise information about Rowson's life and career and argues, insightfully, that Trials "exceeds the bounds of the marriage plot even as it delivers one" (11). The inclusion of the epilogue to "Slaves in Algiers" (written just a year before Trials), in which Rowson boldly proclaims that women "were born for universal sway," provides an interesting counterpoint to Trials, raising questions as to what extent Meriel is ever able to achieve agency in the patriarchal world in which her adventures take place. An excerpt from William Cobbett's "A Kick for a Bite," a misogynist attack on Rowson and her work, further highlights the way questions about gender relations and women's role in public life shaped Rowson's writing. Editions like this one make it possible for students and general readers to see for themselves the fuller...

The entire front vowel system, including monophthongal /aɪ/ as in ride, is shifting toward the national standard. Previous network studies in sociolinguistics have focused on individual-level network characteristics, such as integration in dense local networks or contact with speakers from different neighborhoods or ethnic groups. By contrast, the Raleigh study focuses on individuals’ positions in the community network structure as represented by a bipartite network of people and the schools they attended. Bipartite networks indicate social proximity between people via their shared participation in an event or organization.With a 189-speaker sample of Raleigh natives, the network measure of structural equivalence offers a view of Raleigh’s community network structure and of the individual’s role in advancing the shift away from the Southern vowel system. Structural equivalence is the extent to which nodes inhabit similar positions within a social network. In this case, it describes the extent to which pairs of speakers attended the same schools. A distance matrix containing each pair’s network proximity is used to predict speakers’ linguistic similarity. The role of the individual and of the social indexicality of Southern variants is considered in the context of aggregate patterns of variation.

AU - Mielke, Jeff AU - Magloughlin, Lyra AU - Wilbanks, Eric T2 - GLOSSA-A JOURNAL OF GENERAL LINGUISTICS AB - English /ɹ/ is known to exhibit covert variability, with tongue postures ranging from bunched to retroflex, as well as various degrees of lip protrusion and compression. Because of its articulatory variability, /ɹ/ is often a focal point for investigating the role of individual variation in change. In the studies reported here, we examine the coarticulatory effects of alveolar obstruents with /ɹ/, presenting data from a collection of sociolinguistic interviews involving 162 English speakers from Raleigh, North Carolina, and a pilot corpus of ultrasound and lip video from 29 additional talkers. These studies reveal a mixture of assimilatory and coarticulatory patterns. For the sound changes in progress (/tɹ/ and /dɹ/ affrication, and /stɹ/ retraction), we find increases over apparent time, but no effect of covert variability in our laboratory data, consisting mostly of younger talkers. When a sound change has already become phonologized to a new phonemic target with a correspondingly different articulatory target, the original variability is obscured. In comparison, post-lexical coarticulation of word-final /s z/ before a word-initial /ɹ/ more closely resembles /s z/ in tongue posture, with an effect of anticipatory lip-rounding that introduces a low-mid frequency spectral peak during the sibilant interval, and greater reduction in the frequency of this peak for talkers who transition more rapidly to the /ɹ/. In order to uncover the role of covert variability in a sound change, we must look to sounds that exhibit synchronically stable articulatory variability.

It also compares DCA with an early study of (ING) in Detroit in 1968. The analysis indicates important differences in how social factors correlate with (ING) over both space and time, as socioeconomic status and gender show differential intersections that distinguish the earlier AAL sample from Washington, D.C., from a comparable AAL sample from Detroit, as well as the D.C. sample a half-century later. Internal constraints from the current CORAAL study tend to align with those indicted in other studies, but some minor constraint effects indicate structural diversity. The comparative results point to a more nuanced understanding of the features that characterize AAL over time and place as well as a more informed perspective on how (ING) functions as a general sociolinguistic variable.

In the United States national controversies about the speech of African Americans have erupted periodically for more than a half-century now, from the difference-deficit debates in the 1960s (Labov, 1972) to the Ebonics controversy in the 1990s (Rickford, 1999) and linguistic profiling in the 2000s (Baugh, 2003, 2018). Further, the adoption of performance genres from AAL into languages other than English, such as hip-hop and rap, has given the speech of African Americans even wider international recognition and global status (Omoniyi, 2006). The curiosities and controversies about African American speech symbolically reveal (1) the depth of people's beliefs and opinions about language differences; (2) the widespread level of public misinformation about language diversity; and (3) the need for informed knowledge about language variation in public life and in education.

Because, however, durability is a characteristic of the work, it seems to me problematic. Survival, rather than durability, appears to be the rubric we are discussing. It is not a characteristic of the work, any more than of a historical individual who survives a critical event like the French Revolution or the Holocaust. We identify survivors only retrospectively. A myriad of contingencies—time and chance—will obtain for any text to survive. Historiographical competition is ferocious, and worthy of study. Like Tolstoy's unhappy families, each historical text that fails to survive will have its own history. Why Gibbon and not Volney? We can adduce reasons, of course, but they are looks backward; in the late eighteenth century, no predictions were certain. Both Hayden White and Frank Ankersmit have, each in his own way, suggested the characteristics of the best histories. I believe they are mistaken, if best is to be taken to mean: most likely to survive. This is a characteristic of the ongoing reception of the work. As in an ongoing conversation, the historical work may advance the discourse, or contradict it, or change the subject. Whether it will have influence after the speaker has departed is up to those who remain and are added to the group. This rhetorical survival in the conversation is what is in question here. As such, it is profoundly historical, and not “beyond time.” DA - 2019/1// PY - 2019/1// DO - 10.1111/hith.12094 VL - 57 SP - S9-S14 SN - 1468-2303 KW - survival KW - durability KW - Hayden White KW - Frank Ankersmit KW - rhetoric KW - conversation ER - TY - JOUR TI - Partial devoicing of voiced geminate stops in Tokyo Japanese AU - Hussain, Qandeel AU - Shinohara, Shigeko T2 - JOURNAL OF THE ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA AB - Tokyo Japanese has a constraint against voiced geminate stops in its native lexicon. The present study investigates whether recently introduced word-medial voiced geminate stops [C1V1C(C)2V2] are differentiated from voiceless geminates and voiced singletons in terms of duration, voicing during closure, and spectral moments of stop release bursts. The findings suggest that the voiceless and voiced singleton stops were clearly differentiated by C2 duration. In contrast, C2 duration of the voiceless and voiced geminate stops was not significantly different. The devoicing of the word-medial stops was not only observed in voiced geminates, but voiced singletons also showed devoicing. The duration of the preceding vowel (V1) distinguished the voicing contrast in both singleton and geminate stops. The first four spectral moments of C2 stop release bursts did not distinguish the length and voicing contrasts in stops. These results indicate that, although word-medial voiced geminate stops are fully or partially devoiced, the Tokyo Japanese speakers lengthen the preceding vowels (V1) to maintain a voicing contrast. Production patterns of the voiced geminates are considered in relation to marginal or intermediate phonological contrast.

The literature suggests that there are three main problem areas: transparency, learnability, and usability. Looking at questions asked in user communities for chemistry software projects, the author found that for software supported by feature-based documentation, problems of transparency and learnability are prominent, leading users to have difficulty reconciling disciplinary practices and values with software operations. For software supported by task-based documentation, usability problems were more prominent. The author considers the implications of this study for user support and the role that technical communication could play in developing and supporting open-source projects.
