Contemporary Chinese Print Media - Zheng Yi - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

This book examines the transformations in form, genre, and content of contemporary Chinese print media. It describes and analyses the role of post-reform social stratification in the media, focusing particularly on how the changing practices and institutions of the industry correspond to and accelerate the emergence of a relatively affluent urban leisure-reading market. It argues that this reinvention of Chinese print media vis-à-vis the creation of a post-socialist taste (class) culture is an essential part of the cultural and affective transformations in contemporary Chinese society, and demonstrates how the reinvention of such taste culture effectively creates, through new kinds of reading materials and carefully demarcated target audiences, a middle-class civility that serves as the locus of the new niche media market.

Scales for Rating the Behavioral Characteristics of Superior Students--Print Version - Joseph Renzulli - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Scales for Rating the Behavioral Characteristics of Superior Students are commonly referred to as the - Renzulli Scales - or - Renzulli-Hartman Scales - . Now in its third edition, the Renzulli Scales are the nation''s most popular tool for identifying gifted children. Supported by 40 years of research, the Renzulli Scales are used by gifted and talented programs across the country. This standardized instrument is completed by teachers and provides an effective method for identifying gifted children. The Renzulli Scales are designed to obtain teacher estimates of a student''s characteristics in the following areas: - Learning Characteristics - Creativity Characteristics - Motivation Characteristics - Leadership Characteristics - Artistic Characteristics - Musical Characteristics - Dramatics Characteristics - Communication Characteristics (Precision) - Communication Characteristics (Expressiveness) - Planning Characteristics - Mathematics Characteristics - Reading Characteristics - Technology Characteristics - Science Characteristics Each scale contains multiple items that are rated using a Likert-type scale. The first four scales (learning, creativity, motivation, and leadership) are used by most schools that use the Scales . The remaining 10 scales are focused on specific areas. They are used by schools when those areas seem appropriate for a gifted program''s goals. For example, a program serving gifted math students would use the mathematics scale, a science academy would use the science scale, etc. Research shows that gifted children tend to exhibit certain observable behaviors, such as using advanced vocabulary, grasping underlying principles, and making generalizations from complex information. The Renzulli Scales asks teachers to rate children in comparison to their peers on a host of these observable behaviors. The children who score high on the scales are more likely to be gifted. Using a tool like the Scales , a school can narrow the number of students who will be fully evaluated for a gifted program. The items were chosen from a comprehensive body of research concerning the characteristics of gifted students. Based on a multiple talent approach to the identification of gifted students, the scales help identify student strengths.

The Comprehension and Miscomprehension of Print Communication - Wayne D. Hoyer - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

First Published in 1987. To writers and visualizers, this study sets a range of expectations for comprehension and miscomprehension—pointing the finger of caution that even what seems the simplest of language can be misunderstood, but also calling forth their best efforts, because this benchmark study shows that some communications can be much more successful than others and there is usually room for improvement. To advertisers, the study says that perhaps we often take comprehension too much for granted, being satisfied when consumers respond with something in the general area of our message, rather than in the precise area of what is meant. To academicians, the study gives reliable reference points for thought and dialogue among themselves and the advertising and publishing communities. It underlines what intuitive editors and writers have always known but have not always practiced: that words and ideas are fragile—handle with care if you hope to deliver them intact from one mind to another.

Mass Media Writing - Elise K. Parsigian - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

This innovative book is the first to identify and describe the systematic process that drives the day-to-day work of writers in the real world of print and broadcast journalism, public relations and advertising. The key to creative problem solution for both simple and complex assignments in media work is engagingly detailed in this thought-provoking guide.

Each chapter is a discovery of how this reliable partnership for solving writing problems in media applies to both anticipated and unexpected communication situations. Making known what media professionals have learned through trial and error on the job, here is a thinking and writing dynamic that students, new hires, and aspiring free-lancers can now acquire before entering the world of print or broadcast journalism, public relations or advertising.

The American Journalist in the 1990s - David H. Weaver - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Who are U.S. journalists? What are their backgrounds and educational experiences? Why did they choose journalism as an occupation? What do they think about their work? What are their professional and ethical values? What kinds of work do they consider their best? Do men differ from women on these questions? Do ethnic and racial minorities differ from the majority? Do journalists working for different print and broadcast news media differ? This book uses findings from the most comprehensive and representative study ever done of the demographic and educational backgrounds, working conditions, and professional and ethical values of 1,410 U.S. print and broadcast journalists working in the 1990s to answer these questions, including separate analyses for women and minority news people. It also compares many of these findings with those from the major studies of the early 1970s and 1980s. As such, it should be the standard reference on U.S. journalists for years to come. In addition, this study goes beyond the previous two in adding more open-ended questions to explain and enrich quantitative findings, in the belief that the numbers by themselves are not enough to provide explanations for the patterns that emerge. This book includes more of the journalists'' own words to fill this gap, as well as an analysis of samples of their self-selected best work.

Law Library Collection Development in the Digital Age - Michael Chiorazzi - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

While the digital revolution has touched every aspect of law librarianship, perhaps nowhere has the effect been more profound than in the area of collection development. Many of the materials law libraries traditionally collected in print form are now available in electronic format. Digital technology has affected the way we select, order, and process legal materials. The World Wide Web has created an explosion of both commercial and private online publishing. The cost of electronic publishing has caused many traditional law book publishers to sell their companies rather than invest in the needed technologies to compete in the 21st century. Small publishers and book jobbers have been forced to reinvent themselves. The amount of legal information available and its costs continue to soar. Law Library Collection Development in the Digital Age deals with these and other issues related to law library collection development. Chapters range from the theoretical to the practical. Inspired by Penny Hazleton’s seminal paper “How Much of Your Print Collection is Really on Lexis or Westlaw?” the editors and chapter authors of Law Library Collection Development in the Digital Age endeavor to expand on professor Hazleton’s work, with examinations of: - - the role of law libraries in strategic planning for distance learning - - Web mirror sites - - trust vs. antitrust issues - - access vs. ownership issues - - how law libraries deal with electronic court records, dockets, and filings - - the growth of e-journals as they relate to legal publishing - - how the Hein Greenslips and Blackwell North America’s Bookservice cover legal materials - - past, present, and future roles of specialized book jobbers - - and more! Anyone interested in law librarianship or the information industry will find this book informative and useful. Make it a part of your professional collection today.
