ARTICULATING SITUATED KNOWLEDGE AND STANDPOINTS IN OUR RESPONSES TO CONTEMPORARY STREET FICTION: A BOOK CLUB CASE STUDY WITH AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The School of Education by Yvette Rachele Hyde B.A., Southeastern Louisiana University, 1997 M.A., Louisiana State University, 2000 August 2015 Acknowledgments I am most grateful to my committee members—Dr. Jacqueline Bach, Dr. Susan Weinsten, Dr. Petra Hendry, Dr. Michelle Massé, and Dr. Kathleen Bratton—for their guidance and support. I am particularly indebted to my advisor Dr. Jacqueline Bach for her patience and encouragement throughout this process and for faithfully meeting with me to read and comment on numerous drafts. I would also like to thank my participants—Belle, Carmen, Davie, Katrina, Kiersten, McKenzie, and Paula—for their enthusiasm, humor and candidness during each book club meeting. I sincerely appreciate their willingness to share their knowledge of contemporary street fiction and reading experiences with me. Without their expertise and participation, this study would not have been possible. Thirdly, I am also greatly indebted to my graduate school friends—Tammy Jenkins, Marcia Speed, Mary Hudson, Candice Hale, Martha Pitts, Sybil Durand, Heather Johnston- Durham, and Erin Scott-Stewart—who were always a phone call, email or text message away when I needed encouragement or feedback on my thoughts and ideas, no matter the day or hour. I am extremely appreciative for your advice and support. Finally, I am especially grateful to my family—my children, Ashanté, Mia, Donielle, and Camden; my grandparents, Rigley and Mamie Martin, Sr.; my parents, Milton and Gaynell Perry; my siblings, Denette, Brandon, Kimberly and Jason; and my many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins—for believing in me. Also, a special thanks to my Bethel Reform Methodist Church family and my uncle Earl Martin, Sr., for their continuous words of encouragement and to my children’s paternal grandmother, Donna Carter, for her support and help with childcare whenever needed. ii Table of Contents

    PREPRINT - MARCH 2021 DO NOT QUOTE WITHOUT PERMISSION Video Meeting Signals A randomised controlled trial of a technique to improve the experience of video conferencing Paul D. Hills, Mackenzie V. Q. Clavin, Miles R. A. Tufft & Daniel C. Richardson* Department of Experimental Psychology, University College London Abstract We found evidence from A rAndomised controlled triAl thAt A simple set of techniques cAn improve the experience of online meetings. Video conferencing technology has practical benefits, but psychological costs. It has allowed industry, education and social interactions to continue in some form during the covid-19 lockdowns. But it hAs left mAny users feeling fAtigued And socially isolated, perhaps because the limitations of video conferencing disrupt users’ ability to coordinate interactions and foster social affiliation. Video Meeting Signals (VMS™) is a simple technique thAt uses gestures to overcome some of these limitAtions. We cArried out A rAndomised controlled trial with over 100 students, in which hAlf underwent A short trAining session in VMS. All pArticipAnts rAted their subjective experience of two weekly seminars, and transcripts were objectively coded for the valence of language used. Compared to controls, seminAr groups with VMS trAining rAted their personAl experience, their feelings toward their group, and their perceived learning outcomes as significantly higher. Also, they were more likely to use positive lAnguAge And less likely to use negative languAge. While future, pre-registered experiments will explore which aspects of the technique are responsible for these benefits, the current results establish thAt VMS hAs greAt potentiAl to overcome the psychologicAl problems of group video meetings. * corresponding author [email protected] Open Science FoundAtion Project pAge https://osf.io/x28ef/ 1 People struggle with communicAtion technologies when they clAsh with sociAl norms.
