  • The Concept of Identity in the East Midlands of England NATALIE
    The Concept of Identity in the East Midlands of England NATALIE BRABER Investigating feelings of identity in East Midlands adolescents Introduction When considering dialectal variation in the UK, linguists have frequently considered the North/South divide and the linguistic markers separating the two regions (see for example Trudgill, 1999; Wells, 1986). But it has been noted that this is not a straightforward division (e.g. Beal, 2008; Goodey, Gold, Duffett & Spencer, 1971; Montgomery, 2007; Wales, 2002). There are clear stereotypes for the North and South – but how do areas like the East Midlands fit into the picture? The boundaries between North and South are defined in different ways. Beal’s linguistic North does not include the East Midlands (Beal, 2008: 124- 5), neither does Wales’ (2002: 48). Trudgill states that in traditional dialectology the East Midlands area falls under ‘Central’ dialects, which come under the ‘Southern’ branch, but in modern dialectology it falls in the ‘North’. Hughes, Trudgill and Watt (2005: 70) contains a map which has the East Midlands in the North. Linguistically, the question has been raised whether there is a clear North/South boundary (see for example Upton (2012) where it is proposed that it is a transition zone). This paper revisits this question from the point of view of young people living in the East Midlands, to examine their sense of identity and whether this cultural divide is salient to them. The East Midlands is a problematic area in its definition geographically, and people may have difficulty in relating this to their own sense of identity.

Please refer to any referenced (items shown in blue) accompanying case studies and campaign evaluation reports for further details. Please note the highlight results listed and accompanying reports provided only capture a sample of the total overall activity undertaken, so is not an exhaustive list of campaigns or activity undertaken. 1. Recruit adopters and fosterers See the evaluation report on National Adoption Week. Other campaigns/activity achieved: • Effective tracking and monitoring of enquiries in place for the first time – individuals are tracked through from an enquiry generated directly from promotional activity to if a conversion is achieved. Better information than ever before is available on how people heard about the Council, which directly informs promotional activity methods. Adoption: • Best ever conversion rate from enquiries to visits – 50% conversion rate achieved, based on 104 adoption enquiries to end November 2012. Whilst the number of enquiries is comparable to 2011, the quality of enquiries has increased due to improved targeting of promotion. The total number of approval is currently unknown. • 86% increase in enquiries during September and October 2012 (compared to same period on 2011) – directly attributable to the ‘back to school’ campaign. • 99% month on month increase web page visits – as a direct result of increased promotion. Fostering: • Improved quality of enquiries – based on 645 enquiries to end December 2012.

  • Into the Newsroom: Exploring the Digital Production of Regional
    INTO THE NEWSROOM Into the Newsroom explores how journalists and the digital technologies with which they are entangled construct television news at the micro level of prac- tice. It challenges orthodox readings of television news production to explore fundamental questions concerning the ways in which we understand how jour- nalists and technologies combine with one another in unpredictable ways in order to create news. Hemmingway investigates the processes of regional BBC news production, by adapting ANT to an ethnographic study of a specific newsroom to reveal how news work is constructed by this contingent and complex interplay of digital media technologies and human actors. The book provides a rigorous investigation of the everyday rituals that are performed in the television newsroom, and offers a unique suggestion that news is both a highly haphazard and yet technologically complicated process of delib- erate construction involving the interweaving of reflexive professional journalists as well as developing, unpredictable technologies. Arguing specifically for a recognition and an exploration of technological agency, the book takes the reader on an exciting journey into the digital newsroom, using exclusive observation and interviews from those journalists working on the BBC’s recent pilot project of local television news as part of its empirical evidence. This book is an essential introduction both for those seeking to understand news processes at the level of everyday routines and practices, and for those students and scholars who are eager to adopt new and challenging ways to theorise news as practice. Emma Hemmingway is a Senior Lecturer in Journalism at the Centre for Broadcasting and Journalism at Nottingham Trent University.
