  • Introduction
    MERLOT Journal of Online Learning and Teaching Vol. 5, No. 2, June 2009 Integrating Online Multimedia into College Course and Classroom: With Application to the Social Sciences Michael V. Miller Department of Sociology The University of Texas at San Antonio San Antonio, TX 78249 USA [email protected] Abstract Description centers on an approach for efficiently incorporating online media resources into course and classroom. Consideration is given to pedagogical rationale, types of media, locating programs and clips, content retrieval and delivery, copyright issues, and typical problems experienced by instructors and students using online resources. In addition, selected media-relevant websites appropriate to the social sciences along with samples of digital materials gleaned from these sites are listed and discussed. Keywords: video, audio, media, syllabus, documentaries, Internet, YouTube, PBS Introduction Multimedia resources can markedly augment learning content by virtue of generating vivid and complex mental imagery. Indeed, instruction dependent on voice lecture and reading assignments alone often produces an overly abstract treatment of subject matter, making course concepts difficult to understand, especially for those most inclined toward concrete thinking. Multimedia can provide compelling, tangible applications that help breakdown classroom walls and expose students to the external world. It can also enhance learning comprehension by employing mixes of sights and sounds that appeal to variable learning styles and preferences. Quality materials, in all, can help enliven a class by making subject matter more relevant, experiential, and ultimately, more intellectually accessible. Until recently, nonetheless, film and other forms of media were difficult to exploit. They had to be located, ordered, and physically procured well in advance either through purchase, library loan, or broadcast dubbing.

  • Curtis Sliwa
    CURTIS SLIWA Curtis Sliwa was born in Canarsie, Brooklyn. He attended Brooklyn Prep, a Jesuit high school and graduated from Canarsie High School, a New York City public high school. Prior to founding the Guardian Angels, he was night manager of a McDonald's restaurant on Fordham Road in the Bronx. Guardian Angels In May 1977, Sliwa created the "Magnificent 13", a group dedicated to combating violence and crime on the New York City Subway. At the time, the city was experiencing a crime wave. The Magnificent 13 grew and was renamed the Guardian Angels in 1979. The group's actions drew strong reactions, both positive and negative, from the police, public officials, residents, and the media. Throughout the early 1980s, the group's distinctive uniform, a military type red beret and white insignia T-shirt, became recognizable as the group grew and courted media attention. In 1992, Sliwa received the prestigious Courage of Conscience Award from the Peace Abbey, at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston. Sliwa, who continues to act as the president of the organization and oversees its worldwide operations, frequently visits chapters throughout the world. As of 2011, the Guardian Angels operate in nine countries and 82 cities with approximately 5,000 members. Radio Sliwa has become a populist conservative radio talk show host. In 2000 he became the co-host, with attorney Ron Kuby, of the long-running Curtis and Kuby in the Morning. The show lasted eight years before Citadel Broadcasting replaced the team with Don Imus. The Curtis Sliwa LIVE program began national syndication on Dec.

Reviewed by Thomas Hilbink (Institute for Law & Society, New York University) Published on H- Law (May, 2000) TRACING THE TRAJECTORY OF A RADICAL LAWYER In my final year of college I was deeply engaged in writing my senior thesis, a history of the Lawyers' Constitutional Defense Committee, a group formed in 1964 to provide legal assistance to civil rights workers participating in the Mississippi Freedom Summer.[1] A number of attorneys mentioned to me that William Kunstler had encouraged them to volunteer for the group.[2] It seemed important that I talk to him. I called, he agreed to be interviewed, and I headed to Greenwich Village. His home and office were in a row house on a small street near Sixth Avenue, his office window looked up from the basement to the street. Upon entering, I found the scene to be just as I imagined it would be: Total chaos. Kunstler and his partner, Ron Kuby, were hard at work. There were mementos all around from icons of the political left. Papers were piled on the desk and his glasses were balanced on his forehead. This was exciting. I spoke to him -- in between shouts to and from Kuby -- for about an hour and then he suggested I accompany him to a class he was teaching at New York Law School.[3] As we walked down the street towards Sixth Avenue he put his arm in mine, the way a grandfather might do for closeness and support.

I'm not a lawyer for hire. I only defen d those I love."[2] He was a polarizing figure; many on the right wished to see him disbarred, while many on the left admired him as a "symbol of a certain kind of radical lawyer." [2] Even some other civil rights lawyers regarded Kunstler as a "publicity hound and a hit-and-run lawyer" who "brings cases on Page 1 and wins them on Page 68.
