Cognitive development theory and sociocultural theory contend that play contexts can support children in the construction of their knowledge through explorations with different play materials and engagement in social interactions with peers during CPS experiences. However, there is a lack of research studying children’s CPS during play in their everyday preschool classrooms, and particularly, cross-culturally. Therefore, this dissertation, that includes three manuscripts, was designed to investigate (a) preschool children’s different patterns of engagement in play and CPS in Chinese and US preschool classrooms and (b) their teachers’ beliefs about their roles and pedagogical decisions for supporting children’s CPS in particular settings in these two cultures. In the first manuscript, a systematic literature review was conducted framed by PRISR, and it was found that there is a lack of cross-cultural studies that have investigated (a) preschool children’s CPS during play in their everyday classroom contexts and (b) teachers’ roles in children’s development of CPS. These research gaps were addressed in the second and third manuscripts by conducting (a) a 10-month, ethnographic informed observational study in a Chinese kindergarten and a US preschool center that included (b) semi-structured, teacher interviews with the integration of the visual stimulated recall approach. The data and findings are presented, based on over 960 minutes of (a) 16, four- and five-year-old children’s video recordings, (b) six classroom teachers’ interview transcriptions from two early care and education centers, and (c) the researcher’s field notes and journal entries. Findings support that there were cultural and gender differences in children’s engagement in their types of play iv (constructive play, fantasy play, and rough-and-tumble play) and CPS (debating and mentoring). Further, teachers in both cultures showed similarities and differences, within and across the cultural contexts, in their beliefs and pedagogy regarding their image of the child, their role as teachers, and their arrangements of classroom environments. v Table of Contents Chapter 1.

  • What Can Apple TV™ Teach Us About Digital Signage?
    What can Apple TV™ teach us about Digital Signage? Mark Hemphill | @ScreenScape July 2016 Executive Summary As a savvy communicator, you could be increasing revenue by building dynamic media channels into every one of your business locations via digital signage, yet something is holding you back. The cost and complexity associated with such technology is still too high for the average business owner to tackle. Or is it? Some of the traditional vendors in the digital signage industry make the task of connecting and controlling a few screens out to be a momentous challenge, a task for high paid experts. On the other hand, a new class of technologies has arrived in the home entertainment world that strips the exercise down to basics. And it’s surging in popularity. Apple TV™, and other similar streaming Internet devices, have managed to successfully eliminate the need for complicated hardware and complex installation processes to allow average non-technical homeowners to bring the Internet to their television screens. This trend in consumer entertainment offers insights we can adapt to the commercial world, lessons for digital signage vendors and their customers, which lead towards to simpler, more cost-effective, more user-friendly, and more scalable solutions. This article explores some of the following lessons in detail: • Simple appliances outperform PCs and Macs as digital media players • Sourcing and mounting a TV is not the critical challenge • In order to scale, digital signage networks must be designed for average non-technical users to operate • Creating an epic viewing experience isn’t as important as enabling a large and diverse network • Simplicity and cost-effectiveness go hand in hand By making it easier to connect and control screens, tomorrow’s digital signage solutions will help more businesses to reap the benefits of place-based media.

  • Technology Ties: Getting Real After Microsoft
    i c a r u s Winter/Spring 2005 Technology Ties: Getting Real after Microsoft The D.C. Circuit’s 2001 decision in United States v. Microsoft opened the door for high-tech monopolists to tie products Scott Sher together if they can demonstrate that the procompetitive Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati justification for their practice outweighs the competitive harm. Reston, VA Although not yet endorsed by the Supreme Court, the [email protected] Microsoft decision poses a significant threat to stand-alone application providers selling products in dominant operating environments where the operating systems (“OS”) provider also sells competitive stand-alone applications. In the recently-filed private lawsuit—Real Networks v. Microsoft1— Real Networks included in its complaint tying allegations against Microsoft, a dominant OS provider, claiming that the defendant tied the sale of its OS to the purchase of (allegedly less desirable) applications for its operating system. The fate of lawsuits such as Real is almost assuredly contingent upon whether courts follow the Microsoft holding and resulting legal standard or adhere to a more traditional tying analysis, which requires per se condemnation of such practices. These cases and the development of the law of technology ties are likely to have a profound effect on the development of future operating systems and the long-term viability of many independent application providers who offer products that function in such OS’s. With dominant OS providers like Microsoft reaching further into the application world— through the development and/or acquisition of applications that function on their dominant OS environments—OS providers increasingly are becoming competitors to independent application providers, while at the same time providing the industry-standard OS on which these applications run.

  • DIGITAL Media Players Have MEDIA Evolved to Provide PLAYERS a Wide Range of Applications and Uses
    2011-2012 Texas 4-H Study Guide - Additional Resources DigitalDIGITAL media players have MEDIA evolved to provide PLAYERS a wide range of applications and uses. They come in a range of shapes and sizes, use different types of memory, and support a variety of file formats. In addition, digital media players interface differently with computers as well as the user. Consideration of these variables is the key in selecting the best digital media player. In this case, one size does not fit all. This guide is intended to provide you, the consumer, with information that will assist you in making the best choice. Key Terms • Digital Media Player – a portable consumer electronic device that is capable of storing and playing digital media. The data is typically stored on a hard drive, microdrive, or flash memory. • Data – information that may take the form of audio, music, images, video, photos, and other types of computer files that are stored electronically in order to be recalled by a digital media player or computer • Flash Memory – a memory chip that stores data and is solid-state (no moving parts) which makes it much less likely to fail. It is generally very small (postage stamp) making it lightweight and requires very little power. • Hard Drive – a type of data storage consisting of a collection of spinning platters and a roving head that reads data that is magnetically imprinted on the platters. They hold large amounts of data useful in storing large quantities of music, video, audio, photos, files, and other data. • Audio Format – the file format in which music or audio is available for use on the digital media player.
