This monograph has been developed to enrich the literature on this essential and crucial subject. Twenty-five different articles are in this monograph on Multiculturalism. Constituent organizations of NYSCEA have submitted very exciting ideas and materials. NYSAFLT, NYSTESOL, NYSABE, NYSCSS, NYSASP, NYLA, NYSAMA, are among the many professional organizations that have made outstanding contributions to the NYSCEA Journal, 1992. Additionally, national leaders such as Albert Shanker of the AFT and Gerry Madrazo ofthe NSTA and New York State leaders such as Toni Cortese of NYSUT have written essays. Academics, College Professors and classroom teachers, Librarians and students also submitted articles. Dr. Irene Lober and Dr. James Hillestad of SUNY New Paltz and Dr. Peggy McIntosh of Wellesley and Dr. Beverly Robinson of UCLA are some of the academics who shared their ideas. Frances Blake, a student from Florida &nd Mary Ann Fallek, a teacher from Poughkeepsie, and Judith Gray, a librarian wrote articles of great interest. Dr. A. J. Williams-Myers''article "Multiculturalism And An Assessment Of Its Critics: Key To An Understanding And Acceptance" examines the need for a multicultural education and analyzes the critics of multiculturalism. Charles Treadwell's graphs and comments illustrate the changing demographics of American Society. Albert Shanker's article on "Multiple Perspectives Or Courting Ethnic Strife" suggests that history and social studies taught from multiple perspectives sounds reasonable, but encourages intellectual dishonesty and promotes divisiveness. Dr. Beverly Robinson in "Fieldwork Studies "Them," Us" and "If" maintains that folk life research is a wonderful opportunity to break down cultural biases and ignorance. It helps communalize communities. Dr. Peggy McIntosh's significant article on "White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack" makes a real contribution to understanding the effects of Racism. Harry Kranepool shared the book by Gerry Madrazo et all, Multiculturalism In Mathematics ScienceAnd Technology. The lessons on "Drs. Charles Drew and Elroy Rodriguez" were selected to illustrate the contents of this new book. Drs. Lober and Dunlap in "Strategies For Implementing Multicultural Education" illustrate designs for curriculum development. Dr. James Hillestad's article "Color Ae" is a powerful philosophical statement suggesting that multiculturalism is intellectual deceit as well as dangerous and destructive. Dr. Dolores Fernandez wrote "The Sociological Psychological and Pedological Implications of Multicultural Education." She gives a lengthy, effective defense of Multicultural Education and suggests fighting institutional racism and helping students develop positive self-concept. She advocates restructuring education for cultural infusion rather

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

    “I still remember the first photo Shelley sent to me, and how I caught my breath at the beauty she captured, but even more, how she was able to capture the relationship between my daughter and her horse. These photos are lifetime mementos that we will treasure always.” Marie Henn HEARTFELT EQUESTRIAN PORTRAITS so you will always remember The bond you share with your horse is special, and it’s a feeling you will always want to remember. The touch of their soft nose, the way they make you laugh, how it feels to ride together through golden fields at sunset… As a fellow horse lover, I understand what it’s like to love a horse so deeply and to want to freeze this moment forever. We never know how much time we have left to enjoy our beloved animals. Investing in beautiful, quality photography is a wonderful way to preserve our memories of them for years to come. SHELLEY PAULSON photographer and horse lover I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love horses. I was that horse-crazy girl who spent summers on horseback, falling in love over and over with these beautiful creatures. One by one I said goodbye to the horses of my youth. I now have only the photographs from those days to bring me back into the moments and the horses that shaped me. Now I have my own little farm and get to be with my sweet horses every day. I can’t help but take photos of them as I watch warm evening light stream into the barn and kiss their fuzzy ears, or see perfectly formed snowflakes land on their velvety winter coats.
