October, 1996 GKEETINGS On behalf of the Board of Directors of the New York State Speech Communication Association, I am pleased to welcome you to our 54th Annual Convention. The conference theme, "Culture, Communication and Media,"' was chosen to encourage other disciplines to join us in enlarging and deepening our understanding of communication as we approach the 21st Century. I hope you will have an exciting and enriching experience as you attend this year's conference panels and special events. With sixty panels to choose from and fifty­ five universities and colleges represented, the theme is reflected in the rich inix of interests and perspectives. This year, as always, we welcome new and old faces including young scholars. By encouraging their research and showcasing their findings we hope we have begun a long-term relationship with our new members. While your intellectual senses are being aroused, we hope you will have the opportunity to experience the changing season and all the facilities available at Kutsher's Country Club. Bringing a convention together involves the contribution of many people who have given of their time this year.

The primary concern of this presentation is the communicative value of silence. The panelist looks into the importance and functions of silence in communicative situations Mark Golubow, New York University Teachers and students of the arts exchange subtle nonverbal information during the course of a lesson. Instruction in the Arts is rarely offered over distance learning networks because of this. This presentation will examine the e:-.:periments conducted to find the problems in communication that occurred and how changes in the design of telecommuncation networks could enable this communication to take place.

Following a brief summary of the systems approach and its relationship to the media ecology intellectual tradition, sociolo- gist Niklas Luhmann is identified as an appropriate mediator between Korzybski and McLuhan, for his application of the concept of autopoiesis to the study of society. Korzybski’s key term of abstracting is compared to McLuhan’s emphasis on medium, and suggests that McLuhan’s true concern was with a process of mediating rather than a medium as a thing. Korzybski only dis- cussed abstracting in quantitative terms, i.e., levels or orders of abstracting, but McLuhan’s ap- proach suggests the need to distinguish between qualitative differences as well, in the form of the mode of abstracting.

    0 ***FRIDAY*** Registration (1:00 pm – 5:00 pm) Registration Lobby Session F PM1 (2:00 pm - 3:15 pm) Technology Integration in the Classroom: Pedagogical East Room 1 Challenges and Opportunities Educators recognize that technology in the classroom distracts and disrupts productive thinking. Yet, as educators in the field of communication it is essential that our students know how to engage, utilize, and communicate with that very same distracting technology. Media literacy is a necessity for today’s student. Gunther Kress clearly articulates the complexity that exists at the intersection of media, technology and critical thinking, “The range and forms of available information are changing with the advent of new digital literacies, but we need to be aware that these are not replacing other literacies. Rather they are overlaying them and increasing the complexity of what can and must be learned with the demands of multi-layered meanings and more complex semiotic systems (2003.) Panelists will discuss the pedagogical challenges and opportunities for technology integration in the classroom. Topics to be addressed include: course lessons, technology tools, and curriculum outcomes or goals that use technology in the classroom to foster critical thinking, ignite students’ imagination, mindfulness and thoughtfulness in the classroom through the use of technology in the classroom.
