School perception is often based on the narrative of those who attended schools years ago. If we are INTENTIONAL about walking into every conversation knowing it could be the one they talk about for years to come, we OPEN DOORS for the outside to see us for who we are and BUILD MOMENTUM by creating a culture where every story matters. We have a tremendous opportunity to impact the narrative of our students, teachers, and community. Special Sessions Session Session Title and Presenter Name 10:10 AM World Language Teacher Collaborative Workshop Moderators: Sarah Loveless, Natascha Parrish - Calloway County Schools Please join area world language teachers as we meet virtually to collaborate, connect, and regroup.

Session 1 10:10-11:00 AM CST Session Session Title and Presenter Name Room 1 Lead Where You Are Dr. Joe Sanfelippo “I’m just...It’s a phrase we hear all the time. I’m just a teacher, I’m just an assistant principal, I’m just a tech director, I’m just a custodian….the list goes on and on and is always followed by reasons something CAN’T happen. Leadership is not a title, it’s an action...and it starts from within. Identifying leadership traits in yourself changes your mindset when thinking about leading those around you. Part of our responsibility as a leader is to identify leadership traits in others. The opportunities are endless for those who choose to lead...it’s our job to find those traits, focus our efforts on growth opportunities, and foster an environment where everyone has a chance to lead. This fast-paced and engaging session will help you identify your own leadership traits and implement practical ways to increase your capacity to find them in others.

  • Congo's Enough Moment
    Congo’s Enough Moment The Case for Conflict Minerals Certification and Army Reform John Prendergast October 20101 At rare moments during the course of a war, a confluence of factors come together to provide a window of opportunity for real conflict transformation. Now Congo has a unique opportunity to bring an end to more than 125 years of having its people and resources pillaged by colonial powers, international traders, neighbors, and foreign and domestic armed groups. Growing international attention to atrocities in Congo, both recent and historical, and widespread interest in conflict minerals has shined a spotlight on eastern Congo as it has never done before—from the U.S. Congress, from regional heads of state, and from multinational companies. This has opened a significant new window for policy reform and it is time for the U.S. government and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to help leverage the end of the war in eastern Congo through leadership on two of the issues that will catalyze a broader solution to the cycles of violence there: minerals certification and comprehensive army reform. Consumers and human rights activists in America and around the world are saying “Enough is Enough” of the killing, raping, and smuggling that has helped to satisfy our demand for cheaper cell phones, laptops, and other products powered in part by conflict minerals from the Congo. The result is congressional legislation—signed by President Obama—that requires real transparency from those companies profiting from this exploitation.2 That message has echoed from the board rooms of multinational compa- nies to the presidential palaces of Central African leaders, right down to the rank and file of the rebel groups and army units that feed off of the war.

  • SHIRLEY MACLAINE to RECEIVE 40Th AFI LIFE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
    SHIRLEY MACLAINE TO RECEIVE 40th AFI LIFE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD America’s Highest Honor for a Career in Film to be Presented June 7, 2012 LOS ANGELES, CA, October 9, 2011 – Sir Howard Stringer, Chair of the American Film Institute’s Board of Trustees, announced today the Board’s decision to honor Shirley MacLaine with the 40th AFI Life Achievement Award, the highest honor for a career in film. The award will be presented to MacLaine at a gala tribute on Thursday, June 7, 2012 in Los Angeles, CA. TV Land will broadcast the 40th AFI Life Achievement Award tribute on TV Land later in June 2012. The event will celebrate MacLaine’s extraordinary life and all her endeavors – movies, television, Broadway, author and beyond. "Shirley MacLaine is a powerhouse of personality that has illuminated screens large and small across six decades," said Stringer. "From ingénue to screen legend, Shirley has entertained a global audience through song, dance, laughter and tears, and her career as writer, director and producer is even further evidence of her passion for the art form and her seemingly boundless talents. There is only one Shirley MacLaine, and it is AFI’s honor to present her with its 40th Life Achievement Award." Last year’s AFI Tribute brought together icons of the film community to honor Morgan Freeman. Sidney Poitier opened the tribute, and Clint Eastwood presented the award at evening’s end. Also participating were Casey Affleck, Dan Aykroyd, Matthew Broderick, Don Cheadle, Bill Cosby, David Fincher, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Ashley Judd, Matthew McConaughey, Helen Mirren, Rita Moreno, Tim Robbins, Chris Rock, Hilary Swank, Forest Whitaker, Betty White, Renée Zellweger and surprise musical guest Garth Brooks.

  • Gender Inequality in the Movie Industry
    Running head: GENDER INEQUALITY IN THE MOVIE INDUSTRY Gender Inequality in the Movie Industry: A Big Data Analysis of Female Underrepresentation Sebastián Cole Poma-Murialdo Student ID: 11351446 Master Thesis Graduate School of Communication Research Master in Communication Science University of Amsterdam Supervisor: dr. Jeroen Lemmens February 1st, 2019 GENDER INEQUALITY IN THE MOVIE INDUSTRY 1 Abstract The current study aimed to evaluate gender inequality in the movie industry. The gender of the cast and top crew positions from all 4885 feature films that received a wide release in United States between 1982 and 2017 were evaluated. Data was collected by scraping online movie databases. In the first part of the study, three types of representation were considered. First, the analysis of the numerical representation confirmed that there is high gender inequality in both cast and crew. Second, the examination of the quality of these representations revealed that, while all genres are male dominated, comedy, drama, romance and music have a higher proportion of women that the other genres (female genres). An analysis using the Bechdel test, used as a measure of female independence, showed that most movies from female genres pass the test, while movies from other genres fail it. Third, the analysis of the centrality of the representations showed no significant difference between big and small studio size, as both were male dominated. The relationship between cast and crew indicated that a higher proportion of women in the crew increases the proportion of women in the cast, especially for female genres. Finally, the second part of the study evaluated the relationship between the cast and crew’s gender and movie success.

Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue? What aspects should people put more effort on and what factors should people focus on when they try to higher the revenue of a movie? http://localhost:8888/nbconvert/html/Desktop/MyProjects/Pr_085/FinalProject.ipynb?download=false Page 1 of 62 FinalProject 25/08/2018, 930 PM Hypothesis: We predict that the following factors contribute the most to movie revenue.
