DESCRIPTORS *Catholic Educators; *Catholic Schools; Computer Assisted Instruction; *Computer Uses in Education; Educational Development; Educational Environment; Educational Practices; *Educational Technology; Elementary Secondary Education; Instructional Innovation IDENTIFIERS Technology Integration ABSTRACT Selected Programs for Improving Catholic Education (SPICE) was initiated in 1996. This venture of the National Catholic Educational Association, in partnership with the Jesuit Institute at Boston College, identifies exemplary Catholic educational programs from around the counLry, and invites the schools and dioceses named to share their ideas and practices in a 3-day gathering called Conversations in Excellence at Boston College. The focus area of SPICE 1999 was "Forming Innovative Learning Environments through Technology." Specifically, the SPICE committee was looking for programs that seamlessly weave the use of technology into every aspect of the learning experiences for students. The 1999 Conversations in Excellence symposium was held at the University of Dayton, running concurrently with another program, "New Frontiers for Catholic Schools." Following an overview of SPICE 1999 (Carol Cimino), this book describes (in chapter 2) each of the 11 model programs selected for SPICE 1999 (Carol Cimino), including ideas for implementation along with contact information about school and diocesan personnel who are willing to help others to replicate or adapt what they have done. SPICE 1999 presentations included in subsequent chapters are: "Technologies of Liberation: Education in the New Century" (David D. Thornburg); "Increasing Students' Participation via Multiple Interactive Media" (Andrey L. Kremer with Christopher Dede); "Approaches for Reflecting on Communication from the Perspective of Catholic Education" (Angela Ann Zukowski); "Computer Literacy-Media Literacy: What's the Connection?" (Frances Trampiets); and "Checkpoints for Excellence in Curricular Technology Integration" (Judith Oberlander). This volume also contains a compilation of a survey on the past SPICE programs (Thomas McLaughlin), and a discussion of the results of the Quality Education Data 1999-2000 Catholic school technology survey (Joseph M. O'Keefe). (AEF) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document. Forming Innovative Learning Environments Through Technology.

With the absence of a national program designed to identify and disseminate outstanding educational programs, SPICE was positioned not only to fill the void, so to speak, but to highlight specifically Catholic educational programs. The idea was to have a particular focus area each year, drawing from exemplary programs around the country that would be chosen and recognized for their merits and effectiveness. In 1996, the focus area was Integrating Mission; in 1997, Providing for the 7 Diverse Needs of Youth and Their Families; in 1998, Creatively Financing and Resourcing Catholic Schools. This venture of the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA), in partnership with the Jesuit Institute at Boston Col- lege, not only identifies the programs, but also invites the schools and dioceses named to share their ideas and practices after receiving input themselves in a three-day gathering called Conversations in Excellence at Boston College. The end result is that creative ideas are first shared and refined among the SPICE participants, then are available for adoption and adaptation by Catholic schools over the country. That is why, in the subse- quent chapter describing each program, ideas for implementa- tion are included along with contact information about school and diocesan personnel who are willing to help others to repli- cate or adapt what they have done. The focus area of SPICE 1999 was "Forming Innovative Learning Environments Through Technology." Specifically, the SPICE com- mittee was looking for programs that seamlessly weave the use of technology into every aspect of the learning experience for students, either through teacher training programs or in the education and training of students in the use of the latest in technology. Sufficient data show the state of technology use in Catholic schools. In 1998, Quality Education Data (QED) published the results of a survey taken of all 8,383 Catholic schools in the United States. Of the 78% that responded, the following pic- ture emerged: O 70% had a technology plan, and QED points to the e-rate as the motivating force behind this statistic. O 67.9% had a technology coordinator. O 60.4% had intermediate- to instructor-level software skill level. O 45% of dioceses incorporated technology use into student content performance standards. O 66% had Internet access. Because of the focus area, the 1999 Conversations in Excellence symposium was held at the University of Dayton (UD), running concurrently with another program called New Frontiers for Catholic Schools. Since 1990, the University of Dayton has hosted the latter four-day institute designed to introduce school teams to the use of technology in Catholic schools. Spearheaded by UD professor Sister Angela Ann Zukowski, MHSH, and Regina Haney of NCEA, New Frontiers has success- fully trained hundreds of teachers and administrators in the in- troduction, application, and use of computer technology in their schools. Eleven programs were selected for SPICE 1999 and invited to Conversations in Excellence. The program representatives and sponsors were asked to share their programs with the other participants by using "cutting edge" technology. Thus, one of the goals of SPICE, the dissemination of outstanding programs and practices, was promoted. These programs are outlined in chapter two. At the end of the time allotted for the SPICE presentations, the New Frontiers teams arrived and both groups spent an entire day getting input from persons expert on both the develop- ment of new technologies and on imagining the future of edu- cation. Dr. David Thornburg focused on three questions: What hap- pened? What

  • Police Interactions with the Community on Facebook: an Examination of the Content Of
    Police interactions with the community on Facebook: An examination of the content of the message police communicate with citizens on Facebook, community response, and factors associated with different communication patterns. A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy (Ph.D) in the School of Criminal Justice of the College of Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services by Bradley Buckmeier 2019 B.A. University of Cincinnati, 2008 M.S. University of Cincinnati, 2009 Dissertation Committee: James Frank, PhD (Chair) Lawrence Travis, PhD Edward Latessa, PhD Charles Klahm, PhD Abstract The nature of interactions between the police and the public has been an important topic in policing research. Social media are a relatively new platform that the police can use to interact with the community. Facebook is a social media website which allows the police to communicate directly with the community and, at the same time, allows the community to respond. Limited research exists about the nature of the interactions the police are having with the community on Facebook. This dissertation will examine police department interactions with the community using Facebook as the means of communication. Specifically, it will examine the nature and content of their messages when communicating with citizens on Facebook, the factors that may be associated with different online communication patterns of the police (i.e., community factors, year of adoption of Facebook) and how the community responds. ii Copyright Notice © Bradley Buckmeier iii Acknowledgments This dissertation marks the end of a long journey in my life that I could not have done alone.

Emily Merritt 06/22/12 An Analysis of the Discourse of Internet Trolling: A Case Study of Reddit.com Student presenter: Emily Rose Merritt Project advisor: Esther Castro-Cuenca With the proliferation of social media and community discussion and forum websites, interest in understanding and explaining communication on the Internet (with an emphasis on language-based communication) is on the rise. Over time, new genres of interaction have developed that take place primarily or exclusively in online communication, and with them has developed the need to investigate the structure of these interactions, what their function is within conversations and communities, what their place is within certain Internet discourses, and over time what effects they have on communication on and offline. Thus far many of these genres have been deemed at best disruptive and at worst anti-social, but when studied from a judgment-free point of view show high levels of complexity and offer us excellent opportunities to understand how the Internet is shaping and being shaped by new kinds and contexts of communication. One of these genres of interaction that has gained significant fame on some very popular forums and discussion sites is called trolling. Trolling occurs on discussion sites or message boards when a user intentionally posts erroneous or inflammatory information with the intention of provoking a strong reaction out of other users. The objective of this study is to understand the complexities of trolling, as well as some of its functions and outcomes in anonymous online communication.

Justus Hartwigsen Bachelor’s Thesis Degree Programme in International Business 2016 Abstract 12.05.2016 Author(s) Justus Hartwigsen Degree programme International Business Report/thesis title Number of pages Content Marketing for Start-ups and appendix pages Case: Motivade Ltd. 54 This thesis deals with content marketing and its importance for a start-up like Motivade. Motivade is active in the Health and Fitness industry and has been online with their web- site/blog and social media for about three years. However there is room for improvement and Motivade made clear to me that they would benefit of a deeper insight into content marketing. The thesis starts with a short SWOT analysis of Motivade’s current Marketing activities. From there the thesis covers the most relevant theory of topics in the exact order of how content is created, published and distributed. The topics covered are content creation cou- pled with search engine optimisation, free as well as paid social media services as distribu- tion channels and email, whatsapp and remarketing as follow up channels. To present the findings data was obtained from online marketing courses, articles/ blog posts as well as several books. The desired outcome of applying the researched information is the ability for Motivade to produce and efficiently distribute quality content which helps to raise brand awareness and to attract new customers.
