The program, as designed at the University of Alberta, was used to teach beginning French students toread and write in the target language. The program represented approximately one semester of introductOty French instruction. The subjects consisted of two classes of grade ten French students who used different texts during regular class hours, and who were bused to the University during regular French periods for one and a half hours of CAI twice weekly for a period of 10 weeks. Results of achievement comparison tests between CAI and conttol groups indicate that the CAI students did not suffer in terms of prescribed school curriculum even though they spent up to 30 hours less time in its use than regular groups.X questionnaire designed to measure attitudes toward FRAND was administered to the students when they had completed the final achievement test. Attitudes in both experimental groups were very positive.

  • NELLY WRAP-UP 2.Indd
    PRESENTS A PARTY HONORING NELLY MAY 7, 2008 THE GUEST OF HONOR Grammy Award winner Nelly is back on the scene with a hot new album, Brass Knuckles, from Universal Records. A savvy pop-rapper with crossover appeal, Nelly seemed like a novelty when he first debuted in the summer of 2000 with “Country Grammar (Hot),” yet he was no one-hit wonder, consistently returning to the pop charts with successive smash hits like “Hot in Herre.” His universality is partly rooted in his hometown, St. Louis, Missouri, which set him apart from all of the prevailing rap styles of his time. He wasn’t from the East or West coast, nor was he from the South; located in the middle of the United States, St. Louis is a Midwestern city built on the banks of the Mississippi River. Nelly never shied away from a pop-rap approach, embracing a sing-along vocal style that made his hooks catchier than most. Resulting was a rapper capable of crossing practically all boundaries, from the Dirty South to TRL and everything in between. Working with other artists such as Ashanti, the St. Lunatics, Cedric the Entertainer, Nelly continues to top the Billboard charts. Nelly David Zinczenko & Bevy Evan Stein, Ezra Ashkenazi, Nelly & Saul Ashkenazi THE ATMOSPHERE The Luxe Laboratory was transformed with sights and sounds of the music industry, including Nelly’s music videos and tracks from Ashanti. The space also featured an assortment of iHome docking stations, with a variety of design features and aesthetics, showing the depth of the collection.

  • The Effect of Handheld Devices on Student Achievement in Algebra
    1 The Effect of Handheld Devices on Student Achievement in Algebra. Irina Lyublinskaya Nelly Tournaki College of Staten Island /CUNY 2800 Victory Blvd Staten Island, NY 10314 [email protected] 718-982-3714 718-982-3743 (FAX) Pre-publication draft: quote with permission of the author 2 The Effect of Handheld Devices on Student Achievement in Algebra. Abstract This study compares the respective achievements of students in an integrated algebra course taught with two different types of handhelds over a period of one year. The experimental group was taught with TI- Nspire handhelds and was compared to the control group taught with TI-84 graphing calculators. The teachers of each groups received on-going professional development in the same format. Student achievement was measured via a midyear department test; Fall and Spring semester grades; and New York State Regents exam scores and passing rates. Results indicated that the group taught with the TI-Nspire outperformed the other group in all assessments, including passing rates on Regents but not on the Regents exam scores. Further analysis indicated that girls outperformed boys in an identical pattern. No significant differences in achievement by race were observed. Keywords: handheld technology; gender differences; secondary education; algebra; student achievement. 3 The Effect of the Use of Handheld Devices on Student Achievement in Algebra As recently as a few years ago, handhelds were widely considered to be useful organizers, though they were seen as compromised by their limited memory and low-resolution grayscale screens. Today, in a radically changed reality, educators are using handhelds for word-processing, Internet browsing, PowerPoint, grading, scheduling, attendance, lesson-planning, e-mailing, and data collection.

Although its gender and race relations have historically been problematic, they have recently transformed in particular ways. This study examines the forty-one best-selling rap videos of 2007– 2008. Through a qualitative content analysis of videos and lyrics several themes emerged. Hip-hop’s focus on conspicuous consumption, buttressed by the success of entrepreneurial rap moguls, has merged with strip club culture to create a new gender relation based on sexual transaction.

  • The Symbolic Rape of Representation: a Rhetorical Analysis of Black Musical Expression on Billboard's Hot 100 Charts
    THE SYMBOLIC RAPE OF REPRESENTATION: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF BLACK MUSICAL EXPRESSION ON BILLBOARD'S HOT 100 CHARTS Richard Sheldon Koonce A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2006 Committee: John Makay, Advisor William Coggin Graduate Faculty Representative Lynda Dee Dixon Radhika Gajjala ii ABSTRACT John J. Makay, Advisor The purpose of this study is to use rhetorical criticism as a means of examining how Blacks are depicted in the lyrics of popular songs, particularly hip-hop music. This study provides a rhetorical analysis of 40 popular songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles Charts from 1999 to 2006. The songs were selected from the Billboard charts, which were accessible to me as a paid subscriber of Napster. The rhetorical analysis of these songs will be bolstered through the use of Black feminist/critical theories. This study will extend previous research regarding the rhetoric of song. It also will identify some of the shared themes in music produced by Blacks, particularly the genre commonly referred to as hip-hop music. This analysis builds upon the idea that the majority of hip-hop music produced and performed by Black recording artists reinforces racial stereotypes, and thus, hegemony. The study supports the concept of which bell hooks (1981) frequently refers to as white supremacist capitalist patriarchy and what Hill-Collins (2000) refers to as the hegemonic domain. The analysis also provides a framework for analyzing the themes of popular songs across genres. The genres ultimately are viewed through the gaze of race and gender because Black male recording artists perform the majority of hip-hop songs.

  • Swag Or Peacocking? Rappers Use Big Bling to Show Off Clout
    Swag or Peacocking? Rappers Use Big Bling to Show Off Clout By Steven Zangrillo As August winds down and we start to tuck away our beach bodies, once again the focus returns to Fall fashions and lifestyles for 2011. It’s interesting to see how the dating world is affected by our turbulent economy. Since we now need to tighten the strap, we also need to re-evaluate the way we spend money on that special someone — you know the drill… flowers, drinks, dinner, a new outfit. That new outfit, in particular, can really bust the bank and cause a headache or two. However, if you reside in the “young and wealthy rapper” demographic, chances are that you can still use that chunk of bling to woo the lady of your dreams. It’s difficult for most of us to work up the cash to don a $3000-$8000 chain and pendant. Rappers of the right means, however, have the ability to display their fiscal clout. Financial stability displayed through ostentatious mediums is a tried and true recipe for romantic success (although it may not always attract the right partner). Psychologists call this bold style of dress for the purpose of attracting a romantic partner “peacocking”, but if you ask a rap artist… they’ll flash a gold and diamond encrusted smile at you and utter one word. “Swag.” According to Andrew Streyer, Director of Evaluations at Pawngo.com — the new online pawnshop by the founders of Groupon at Lightbank — you might be surprised at the cost for some of these pieces.
