  • Serie Netflix 13 Reasons Why: Consideraciones Para Educadores
    Serie Netflix 13 Reasons Why: Consideraciones para Educadores Las escuelas desempeñan un papel importante en la prevención del suicidio de los jóvenes, y la toma de conciencia de los posibles factores de riesgo en la vida de los estudiantes es vital para esta responsabilidad. La serie de moda de Netflix 13 Reasons Why (13 Razones por qué), basada en una novela de adultos jóvenes del mismo nombre, está planteando tales preocupaciones. La serie gira alrededor de Hannah Baker, de 17 años de edad, quien se quita la vida y deja grabaciones de audio para 13 personas que dice de alguna manera fueron parte de por qué se suicidó. Cada cinta relata acontecimientos dolorosos en los cuales uno o más de los 13 individuos desempeñaron un papel. Los productores del programa dicen que esperan que la serie ayude a los que pueden estar luchando con pensamientos de suicidio. Sin embargo, la serie, que muchos adolescentes están viendo en exceso sin la orientación y el apoyo de adultos, está planteando preocupaciones de expertos en prevención de suicidios sobre los riesgos potenciales que plantea el tratamiento sensacionalista del suicidio juvenil. La serie representa gráficamente una muerte por suicidio y aborda en detalle desgarrador una serie de temas difíciles, tales como la intimidación, la violación, el conducir ebrio y la vergüenza. La serie también destaca las consecuencias de que los adolescentes sean testigos de agresión e intimidación (es decir, espectadores) y no tomen medidas para resolver la situación (por ejemplo, no hablar en contra del incidente, no decirle a un adulto sobre el incidente).

This work focuses on Anne with an E, the Kevin Sullivan 1984 film, the 1934 George Nicholls Jr. film, and the original novel based on Anne’s Bildungsroman characteristics. Through the analysis of how Anne and the narrative interact with concepts of gender, race, class, sexuality, and ability status, emerges how the very definition of what it means to be a ‘girl’ and how it has changed.

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

  • Does Netflix Glamorize Tobacco? 79% of Top Streaming Shows Feature Cigarette-Smoking in Hundreds of Scenes, Study Finds
    Does Netflix glamorize tobacco? 79% of top streaming shows feature cigarette-smoking in hundreds of scenes, study finds dailymail.co.uk/health/article-5519215/79-streaming-shows-feature-cigarette-smoking.html March 3, 5877521 About 79 percent of shows popular among teens and young adults depict tobacco use, a new study has revealed. Researchers found cigarette use is more prominent in Netflix shows - like Stranger Things, which had 182 scenes featuring characters lighting up - than it is in broadcast and cable television. Health advocates warn the findings are alarming given the scores of studies showing teenagers are much more likely to take up smoking as a 'cool' habit if they see actors smoking on screen. One of the researchers behind the study, by the advocacy group Truth Initiative, went as far as to say TV shows have as much glamorized smoking tobacco ads despite the global push to make young people aware of cigarettes' links to cancer. Winona Ryder who stars Stranger Things frequently smokes cigarettes on the series 1/5 Researchers found Stranger Things had 182 scenes of characters lighting up in one season Robin Koval, CEO and president of Truth Initiative, said shows like Stranger Things, which drew an estimated 15.8 million viewers within three days of its second-season launch, said she was stunned by the amount of smoking in a show in 2018. 'We expected to see quite a bit of smoking, but the magnitude of what we saw was shocking,' Koval said. She and her colleagues used a nationally sourced sample to identify the 14 most popular television shows among people between 15 and 24 years old.
