The Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How of Designing and Assessing Assignments The Paralegal American Association for Paralegal Education Volume 32, No. 2 FALL/WINTER 2017 The Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How of Designing and Assessing Assignments See article on page 12 Open Letter to the AAfPE Membership As you know, the AAfPE bylaws were amended last year to add the words “or legal studies” to the definition of Affiliate Membership, paving the way for AAfPE to seek out new affiliate members that do not offer paralegal programs but instead offer extensive legal studies programs within their institutions. Previously, the bylaws of the association prevented any institution or organization that did not offer a paralegal education program from joining the association, which precluded a large number of vocational schools, colleges, universities, and other higher-education institutions throughout the country that offer extensive programs in legal studies from AAfPE membership. By approving the change, AAfPE members acknowledged the association’s need to not only increase membership numbers but also bring in a diverse body of membership that would contribute to the collective knowledge base and strength of the association—both key factors in AAfPE’s long-term viability. Today, AAfPE launches a new logo, reflecting the membership’s decision to include both paralegal and legal studies programs. This new logo represents the next step in AAfPE’s mission to promote quality paralegal education, develop educational standards, and encourage professional growth, in order to prepare graduates to perform a significant role in the delivery of legal services. It is an essential piece of AAfPE’s plan to grow membership in both numbers and diversity. It demonstrates the commitment of both the association and its members to promote high standards for all legal education, regardless of the forum. Please join me in celebrating this significant investment in AAfPE’s future by sharing AAfPE’s new logo.

There it was, gathering dust sitting in a bin at Amvets, obviously passed over by bargain hunters, but if you had witnessed my reaction that day, you would have thought I discovered a priceless heirloom … and, indeed, I had. I stare at it every day I’m at work. When I returned from New York City on a trip where I had the great pleasure of seeing the musical Hamilton (thank you, Steve Dayton), the first thing I did when I got back to my office was look for Alexander’s signature next to the New York delegation and appreciate his fine penmanship. Yet even with the success of a musical celebrating our nation’s origination, and all the discussion of Constitutional conflict in the news, I cannot tell you how many people walk into my office and barely notice it hanging right inside my door, much less comment on it … and it is hard to miss. But I bet my AAfPE friends and colleagues would notice it and appreciate its intrinsic value. I know this to be true because I know we all honor the law and our profession. As educators, our ability to teach the principles of this document that our country was founded upon and to which many of us have sworn an oath, now, perhaps more so than ever, is a reward in and of itself.

  • CFP: Special Issue for Journal of Popular Film and Television: Korean Popular Cinema and Television in the 21St Century
    H-Asia CFP: Special Issue for Journal of Popular Film and Television: Korean Popular Cinema and Television in the 21st Century Discussion published by Jihoon Kim on Monday, August 8, 2016 Call for Submissions to a Special Issue: Korean Popular Cinema and Television in the 21st Century Edited by Jihoon Kim, Dept. of Film Studies, Chung-ang University, South Korea During the last several years, both Korean cinema and Korean television dramas (and K-pop tracks/stars as well, to be sure) have gained not simply dramatically increased popularity beyond the Pan-Asian scope of the first ‘Korean wave (hallyu)’ (across North and South Americas and Europe), but also critical attention in the academia of cinema studies, cultural studies, and East Asian/Korean studies. Despite these situations, previous studies on Korean cinema and television have highlighted only a limited set of texts: despite a couple of recent edited collections dedicated to nationally popular genre films such as horror and film noir, most scholarly writings on Korean cinema have still privileged films directed by so-called ‘auteurs’ (Kim Ki-duk, Hong Sang-soo, Park Chan-wook, Bong Joon-ho, and Lee Chang-dong) that were already established in global film culture and academia, thus leaving unexamined a series of popular Korean films that have not simply had enormous commercial success in the domestic box office but also had notable cultural influences on Korean audiences’ collective desire, historical imaginary, and optical unconscious. Likewise, most of the existing studies on Korean television have discussed only a few canonical television dramas in the first Korean wave era.

  • The Changing Face of Korean Cinema, 1960 to 2015 / Brian Yecies and Ae-Gyung Shim
    The Changing Face of Korean Cinema The rapid development of Korean cinema during the decades of the 1960s and 2000s reveals a dynamic cinematic history that runs parallel to the nation’s politi- cal, social, economic, and cultural transformation during these formative periods. This book examines the ways in which South Korean cinema has undergone a transformation from an antiquated local industry in the 1960s into a thriving international cinema in the twenty-first century. It investigates the circumstances that allowed these two eras to emerge as creative watersheds and demonstrates the forces behind Korea’s positioning of itself as an important contributor to regional and global culture, especially its interplay with Japan, Greater China, and the United States. Beginning with an explanation of the understudied operations of the film industry during its 1960s take-off, it then offers insight into the challenges that producers, directors, and policy makers faced in the 1970s and 1980s during the most volatile part of Park Chung Hee’s authoritarian rule and the subsequent Chun Doo-hwan military government. It moves on to explore the film industry’s profes- sionalization in the 1990s and subsequent international expansion in the 2000s. In doing so, it explores the nexus and tensions of film policy, producing, directing, genres, and the internationalization of Korean cinema over half a century. By highlighting the recent transnational turn in national cinemas, this book underscores the impact of developments pioneered by Korean cinema on the transformation of “Planet Hallyuwood”. It will be of particular interest to students and scholars of Korean Studies and Film Studies.

Abstract The focus of this dissertation is to show how the media of contemporary Korean popular culture, specifically films, are transformed into “hybrid cultural forms” through the practice of genre transformation. Since the early 21st century, South Korean popular culture has been increasingly spreading across the globe. Despite its growing attention and popularity, Korean pop culture has been criticized for its explicit copying of Western culture with no unique cultural identity. Others view the success of Korean media, both its creative mimicry and its critique of the West, as a new hybrid form that offers the opportunity for reassertion of local identity as well as challenging the global hegemony of the West.

  • The Celebration Bicentennial Louisiana Supreme Court
    The Celebration of the Bicentennial of the Louisiana Supreme Court Ceremonies The Louisiana Supreme Court celebrated its 200th anniversary on March 1, 2013. As a special session of court, the Louisiana Supreme Court justices presided over the Bicentennial ceremony, which commemorated the Court’s two centuries of legal heritage. The ceremony took place at the Louisiana Supreme Court’s courtroom at 400 Royal Street in New Orleans. The event was free and open to the public, with the option of one hour of CLE accreditation for Louisiana attorneys. Justice Greg G. Guidry chaired the Court’s Bicentennial Committee, which was in charge of planning the ceremony. Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Jay Dardenne was the master of ceremonies. After Lieutenant Governor Dardenne’s opening address, the Washington Artillery presented the colors, which was followed by the Pledge of Allegiance, led by Donna D. Fraiche, President of the Supreme Court of Louisiana Historical Society. Bishop Shelton J. Fabre gave the invocation, and Chief Justice Bernette J. Johnson delivered welcoming remarks to the attendees. Four speakers discussed various aspects of the Court’s history, including A Walk Through the Streets of New Orleans at the Time of the Court’s Foundation, by Tulane Professor Richard Campanella; The Civilian Aspects of Louisiana Law, by LSU Law Professor John Randall Trahan; The Role of the Louisiana Supreme Court in the Early Civil Rights Movement, by UNO Emeritus Professor Raphael Cassimere, Jr.; and The History of the Louisiana Supreme Court, by UNO Emeritus Distinguished Professor of History and Bicentennial Court Historian Warren M. Billings. Students from the International High School of New Orleans took the stage following the speakers to present a short, trilingual play entitled An Uncommon Birth: Shaping Louisiana’s Legal Tradition for Statehood.

  • PRESENTS a BONG JOON HO FILM Language: Korean
    PRESENTS A BONG JOON HO FILM Language: Korean Runtime: 127min The following press notes have been adapted from the film’s original 2003 release, as to accurately reflect updates involving both recent cast and crew achievements and developments on the real life case from the film. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT | September 2, 2020 This film is based on the real-life serial murder case that happened in South Korea. The case was severely traumatic to the Korean public, and it was a mystery that would never be solved like the Zodiac Killer in the US or Jack the Ripper in the UK. The victims and their families, innocent suspects who were hauled and tormented, failed detectives who found themselves in despair, people of those times who trembled with fear… This case occurred in the dark era of military dictatorship in the 80s, and truly created a further and darker abyss. But what is surprising is that if you take a step back, this case is an intertwined web of tragedy and black comedy—the eerie comedy that blooms within the air during the most absurd of times. The film is an uncanny, yet natural, mixture of horror and comedy because we were truly living in such times. The actual case and this film have passed through a long tunnel of time. And now, this film will newly encounter the audience in US theaters. The case itself recently saw a dramatic turn. (Please wait until you have finished the film before googling what happened to the actual case.) I once threw my entire body and soul to create this film, and now my eyes are on how this film will plow through the long tunnel of time as it greets a new chapter in the fall of 2020 in the US.
