[email protected] [email protected] Alex Moseley Alan Cann Course Design and Development Department of Biology Unit University of Leicester University of Leicester Leicester LE1 7RH, UK Leicester LE1 7RH, UK. [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The impact of social networks on lives of the majority of young adults has been enormous, although their impact on education is less well understood. Some consideration has been give to the role Facebook plays in higher education and in the transition from secondary to tertiary education, but little analysis has been conducted on the role of the microblogging social network Twitter. By examining the use made of this service by two cohorts of students, this study found that Twitter is easy for students to use and popular with the majority once they have experience with it. For this study different patterns of use between individuals in the study and between the two different student cohorts were observed, as was the emergence of informal online peer support networks. The results of this study suggest models for future use of microblogging services. Keywords: computer-mediated communication; cooperative/collaborative learning; Twitter, learning communities; learning spaces, microblogging Introduction For some time, students have used their mobile cell phones to maintain local and distant networks whilst studying at university or college.

  • Muralinaction Faith Matters ( Launched in 2006 As a Vehicle to Enable Faith Communities to Reduce Conflict Using Conflict Resolution Tools
    #MuralInAction Faith Matters (www.faith-matter.org) launched in 2006 as a vehicle to enable faith communities to reduce conflict using conflict resolution tools. Faith Matters works on integration, cohesion, hate crime and countering extremism projects. Faith Matters was one of six organisations working together to address the increase in anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim sentiments in Europe by supporting tolerance and respect for different faiths, religious beliefs and ethnicities within MURAL (‘mutual understanding, respect and learning’), a project that ran from 2018-2019 in six European countries – Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and the United Kingdom. The MURAL project was led by the British Council. It promoted the principles of pluralistic and democratic societies. It aimed to foster transnational cooperation, exchange of knowledge and exchange of best practice to encourage tolerance and counter attitudes that contribute towards acts of hatred and discrimination. MURAL partners brought together an empowered network of social activists and key stakeholders who became agents of positive change in their communities. The project harnessed people’s power for advocacy and their desire for social change to creatively engage the people they live and work with. Some of the MURAL social action projects led by Faith Matters UK participants were around improving critical thinking and social media literacy skills that can help counter extremist, hateful, and racist narratives online, assist in identifying bots and cyborgs, and provide practical ways to resist and counter extremist narratives. As part of this, Faith Matters UK participants have developed this series of toolkits to provide practical and legal information around discrimination and hate crimes.

Informatics programs are technological-oriented in nature, hence students and academics themselves would arguably be quite adept at using SMTs. Students undertaking Informatics programs are trained to thrive in challenging, advanced technical environments as manifestations of the fast-paced world of Information Technology. Students must be able to think logically and learn “how to learn” as “knowledge upon demand” is one of the expected capabilities of Informatics graduates.

The Godey Quilt: One Woman’s Dream Becomes a Reality Sandra Staebell The Godey Quilt is a 1930s appliqué quilt composed of fifteen fabric portraits of men and women clothed in fashionable mid-nineteenth century attire. The dream of Mildred Potter Lissauer (1897−1998) of Louisville, Kentucky, this textile is a largely original design that is not representative of the majority of American quilts made during the early 1930s. Notable for the beauty and quality of its workmanship, the quilt’s crafting was, in part, a response to the competitive spirit that reigned in quiltmaking at the time. Significantly, the survival of the materials that document its conception, design, and construction enhances its significance and can be used to create a timeline of its creation. Reflecting Colonial Revival concepts and imagery, the Godey Quilt is a remarkable physical expression of that era.

    The Relationship Between Natural Environments and Subjective Well-being as Measured by Sentiment Expressed on Twitter Yian Lin A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science University of Washington 2021 Committee: Joshua J. Lawler Sunny L. Jardine Spencer A. Wood Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Quantitative Ecology and Resource Management © Copyright 2021 Yian Lin University of Washington Abstract The Relationship Between Natural Environments and Subjective Well-being as Measured by Sentiment Expressed on Twitter Yian Lin Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Joshua J. Lawler School of Environmental and Forest Sciences There is growing evidence that time spent in nature can affect well-being. Nonetheless, assessing this relationship can be difficult. We used social media data—1,971,045 geolocated tweets sent by 81,140 users from locations throughout Seattle, Washington, USA—to advance our understanding of the relationship between subjective well-being and natural environments. Specifically, we quantified the relationships between sentiment (negative/neutral/positive) expressed in individual geolocated tweets and their surrounding environments focusing on land- cover type, tree-canopy density, and urban parks. Controlling for multiple covariates such as location types and weather conditions, we estimated three random-intercept partial proportional odds models corresponding to the three environmental indicators. Our results suggest that for a given type of land-use, tweets sent from some
