DESCRIPTORS Economics; Geography; *Global Approach; High Schools; *International Relations; Middle Schools; Social Studies; State History; *Thematic Approach IDENTIFIERS Global Issues; Globalization; *Indiana; Internationalism; *State Issues ABSTRACT In an era of globalization, Indiana's cultural, geographic, and economic relationships are becoming more prevalent. This guide is designed for use in middle and high school classrooms to encourage teachers and students to examine their own community's international relationships. The materials were developed by Indiana teachers and are organized around four major themes:(1) The World in Your Community (suggests ways of understanding the international influences experienced in communities every day);(2) Indiana's Resources, Goods, and Services (provides a look at the physical and human resources that allow Indiana to play a role on the international scene);(3) Interdependence (deals with the movement of goods and services, skills, people, and ideas to and from Indiana); and (4) Transitions (provides a perspective on the opportunities and challenges of an international economy and encourages students to consider their future careers and develop their own potential). Each thematic unit is designed to address Indiana's academic standards and contains sample lessons, assessments, and suggestions for teaching resources. Lessons are meant to be flexible, and while some are particularly appropriate for teaching concepts in economics, geography, or history, they can also be helpful in teaching the skills students need to move from school to the world of work and responsible citizenship.

  • MOBILE INTERNET and the RISE of DIGITAL ACTIVISM AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS in NIGERIA Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doct
    MOBILE INTERNET AND THE RISE OF DIGITAL ACTIVISM AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN NIGERIA Thesis Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Canberra by Temple Uwalaka News and Media Research Centre Faculty of Arts and Design October, 2017 ABSTRACT ___________________________________________________________________________ Digital activism literature has proposed several ways in which social media impacts collective actions. These include providing news and information not available on traditional platforms, assisting in the coordination of protests, helping users to join political causes, creating opportunities for protestors to interact with one another, spreading enthusiasm and facilitating emotional contagion (Bennett & Segerberg, 2011, 2014; Chadwick & Howard, 2010; de- Zúñiga, Jung, & Valenzuela, 2012; Gerbaudo, 2012, 2016; Halupka, 2014, 2016; Reedy & Wells, 2010). However many of these previous works (a) do not focus upon mobile social networking applications, and (b) are located within either legacy democracies or authoritarian regimes. In order to bridge this research gap, this study focuses upon the use of mobile social networking applications to support digital activism within the nascent democracy of Nigeria, a country that has only recently returned from military dictatorship. Specifically, this study investigates the impact of mobile internet on the rise of digital activism among Nigerian university students from two universities in Nigeria during the 2012 Occupy Nigeria protest against the removal of petroleum subsidies by the Federal Government of Nigeria. The movement lasted for one month and took place in all the major cities in Nigeria. A mixed-methods approach was adopted featuring two principal methods: (a) a cross- sectional quantitative survey of media platforms used by protestors (n=440); and (b) semi- structured qualitative interviews on protestors’ experiences before, during and after Occupy Nigeria (n=19).
