  • An Exploration of Intersubjectivity in Clinical Interactions Involving Children with and Without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
    An exploration of intersubjectivity in clinical interactions involving children with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD) Kerrie Megan Delves ORCID identifier: 0000-0002-8966-1352 Doctor of Philosophy September, 2017 The School of Languages and Linguistics, The University of Melbourne. The thesis is being submitted in total fulfilment of the degree. Abstract This thesis explores interactional behaviours related to achieving intersubjectivity in clinical interactions involving children with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Intersubjectivity is shared understanding between participants and this study views communication as the site for the establishment, maintenance and restoration of intersubjectivity. The study of intersubjectivity in children with and without ASD is potentially revealing as impairments in social communication are a core component of ASD (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) and difficulties understanding others’ perspectives are well-documented in ASD research (Leslie, 1991). This study uses a corpus of approximately 60 hours of dyadic interactions involving 40 children participating in standardised cognitive tests administered by a researcher in a laboratory setting. Half the children are typically developing (TD) and half have ASD. Interactions were transcribed and analysed using Conversation Analysis (CA) methodology. The data is established as institutional due to the goal-oriented focus of the interaction and the participants’ prescribed roles as test- administrator and test-taker. The study presents an overview of interactional behaviours demonstrating problems with intersubjectivity, including repair sequences. Repair sequences containing open class repair initiation (OCRI) (Drew, 1997) are examined in detail. OCRI consists of repair initiated by the other, in the next turn, using a token such as ‘sorry?’, ‘huh?’ or ‘what?’.

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

Following its sensational arrival, the politics of popular musical culture has however moved from the shared experience of protest movements and picket lines and to an individualised and celebrified consumerist experience. As a consequence what emerged, as a controversial and subversive phenomenon, has been de-fanged and transformed into a mechanism of establishment support.

  • The 7.39 Written by David Nicholls
    THE 7.39 WRITTEN BY DAVID NICHOLLS Carnival Films and BBC One The 7.39 Carnival Films and BBC One’s new two-part romantic drama written by David Nicholls (One Day, Starter For Ten), The 7.39 stars David Morrissey (The Walking Dead), Sheridan Smith (Mrs Biggs), Olivia Colman (Broadchurch) and Sean Maguire (Scott & Bailey). Writer, David Nicholls says, “The 7.39 is a love story for grown-ups, the sort of drama that has not been seen on television for a while. I'm delighted to be writing for the BBC again and working with such a terrific cast and production team.” Carl Matthews (David Morrissey) is stuck. At the age of 45 his life has become routine. Every morning Carl fights his way onto the 7.39 train where he sees the same unhappy faces doing the same daily commute into Waterloo. Happily married to his best friend from college, Maggie (Olivia Colman), with whom he has two healthy, if sullen, teenage kids, life for Carl has become predictable. Sally Thorn (Sheridan Smith) has recently moved out of London, where she still works as the manager of a health club. But she’s unsure if she likes her new suburban life and is anxious about the prospect of marriage to Ryan (Sean Maguire), an enthusiastic personal trainer. Ryan is desperate to start a family, get married, settle down. Not that there’s much time to worry about these things, not while she’s running to catch the 7.39. Over a fight for a seat one morning Sally and Carl begin talking and suddenly their daily commute becomes a lot more interesting.

  • The Development of the UK Television News Industry 1982 - 1998
    -iì~ '1,,J C.12 The Development of the UK Television News Industry 1982 - 1998 Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Alison Preston Deparent of Film and Media Studies University of Stirling July 1999 Abstract This thesis examines and assesses the development of the UK television news industry during the period 1982-1998. Its aim is to ascertain the degree to which a market for television news has developed, how such a market operates, and how it coexists with the 'public service' goals of news provision. A major purpose of the research is to investigate whether 'the market' and 'public service' requirements have to be the conceptual polarities they are commonly supposed to be in much media academic analysis of the television news genre. It has conducted such an analysis through an examination of the development strategies ofthe major news organisations of the BBC, ITN and Sky News, and an assessment of the changes that have taken place to the structure of the news industry as a whole. It places these developments within the determining contexts of Government economic policy and broadcasting regulation. The research method employed was primarily that of the in-depth interview with television news management, politicians and regulators: in other words, those instrumental in directing the strategic development within the television news industry. Its main findings are that there has indeed been a development of market activity within the television news industry, but that the amount of this activity has been limited by the particular economic attributes of the television news product.
