On the Cover Village meeting during the mass movement to adjust land distribution Ten Mile Inn, Hebei Province This picture was taken by David Crook in March 1948 in the village of Ten Mile Inn, which was located in the Jin-Ji-Lu-Yu base area 275 miles southwest of Beijing. During a long village stay in 1947-1948, David and Isabel Crook observed the campaign to adjust an earlier round of land distribution. This photograph was taken at a village meeting conducted by a work team in Ten Mile Inn's temple courtyard. Isabel Crook writes, “The work team made a special point of getting the women to be active in the movement and pressed them to attend. The ones that came were mainly the young wives with their babies. They were not asked to sit separately but this was what tradition called for. Cottage weaving was one of the main cottage industries that supplemented income from farming. Young and middle-aged housewives wound the yarn and set up the frames to load the looms.” Gail Hershatter University of California, Santa Cruz AAS President Photograph by -

Children and Adolescents
CHAPTER 1 Children and Adolescents Unique Audiences Sometimes wise and disconcertingly like adults, children are nonetheless children. To the wonder, joy, and vexation of adults, they are different. As they grow older, they become increasingly like us and therefore intelligible to us, but at each age or stage of development there is something for adults to learn more about, to be amused by, and to adjust to. —Professor Aimee Dorr Television and Children: A Special Medium for a Special Audience (1986, p. 12) Over the past twenty or thirty years, the status of childhood and our assumptions about it have become more and more unstable. The distinctions between children and other categories—“youth” or “adults”—have become ever more difficult to sustain. —Professor David Buckingham After the Death of Childhood: Growing Up in the Age of Electronic Media (2000, p. 77) Children and young people are a distinctive and significant cultural grouping in their own right—a sizeable market share, a subculture even, and one which often “leads the way” in the use of new media. —Professor Sonia Livingstone Young People and New Media: Childhood and the Changing Media Environment (2002, p. 3) 1 2 CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, AND THE MEDIA Unlike the children of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, whose media choices were limited and stood out like isolated, familiar landmarks in communal life, kids today inhabit an environment saturated and shaped by a complex “mediascape” that envelops and bombards them day and night. —James P.

Título De La Ponencia
Virtual Archaeology Review, 7(14): 61-73, 2016 http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/var.2016.4191 © UPV, SEAV, 2015 Received: October 22, 2015 Accepted: April 8, 2016 MULTIMEDIA AND CULTURAL HERITAGE: A DISCUSSION FOR THE COMMUNITY INVOLVED IN CHILDREN’S EDUTAINMENT AND SERIOUS GAMES IN THE 21ST CENTURY Naif A. Haddad Department of Conservation Science, Queen Rania's Faculty of Tourism and Heritage, Hashemite University, Zarqa, Jordan. [email protected] Abstract: Unfortunately, heritage education and awareness remains largely undervalued, as most efforts rely on in-person experiences in formal cultural institutions. While there have been many virtual applications in the field of heritage edutainment with multimedia technology, there are still not enough to make the required and hoped-for change for the children of the digital natives’ generation. However, with the rich resources in 3D imaging and interactive programming already at our disposal, we are well prepared to do so, given a coordinated effort. This paper deals with a key topic that has an importance at the international level: the education of children through the conceptual approach of "edutainment" and "serious games" and particularly focuses on the cultural heritage, considering its tangible and intangible aspects. The paper attempts to clarify, explore and investigate how heritage edutainment multimedia, which bring enjoyment, fun, play and discovery into children’s daily lives, can make a significant contribution to their understanding, curiosity and appreciation of the cultural heritage. The paper also proposes some ideas and storylines for project development, especially for a methodological approach to serious games, which if appropriately planned, can be as entertaining as they are intellectually challenging to young children. -

The intervention consisted of a curriculum unit presented in a kindergarten class of 14 American and 7 Japanese children in Brookline, Massachusetts. Before and after the intervention, the American children's knowledge of Japanese culture was assessed in an interview. Children were presented with five traditional Japanese folktales in English translation. Children were also exposed to Japanese culture through nonfiction books, videos, films, and Japanese children's magazines. Children engaged in such activities as making fans and experimenting with calligraphy, and other activities that focused on housing, food, holidays, and children's activities in Japan. The curriculum was presented in 26 lessons over a 3-month period. As a result of the intervention, American children's responses that indicates a knowledge of Japanese culture rose from a total of 19 in preintervention interviews to 399 in postintervention interviews. A 28-item reference list is provided. Appendices include an annotated bibliography of folktales, nonfiction books, films, and videocassettes; detailed lesson plans for the 26 lessons in the curriculum; sample pre- and post-intervention interviews; and tables of data derived from the interviews. -
2 Town People Among Missing
J u I Y llanrhratrr Ufralft Saturday, July 22, 1989 Manchester, Conn. — A City of Village Charm Newsstand Price: 35 Cents BOY, a SURVIVES CRASH 2 town people among missing By Rick Santos AAanchester Herald An 8-year-old Manchester boy who was on board the United Airlines jet that crashed Wednesday in Sioux City, Iowa, was listed in critical condition late Friday night at a hospital in Sioux City, airline and hospital officials said. His mother and another Manchester resident believed to be on board the plane are not listed among survivors. Two Watertury residents also believed to be on board Flight 232 are not listed among survivors. Jason Feyh, of Brook Haven Apartments at 432 W. Middle Turnpike, was listed in critical condition at Marian Health Center, said Sandy Anderson, a nursing supervisor at the hospital. Anderson would not elaborate on the boy’s injuries, but neighbors of the Feyhs, who had talked to the boy’s father early Friday morning, said he told them the boy had head injuries. The boy was believed to be on the flight with his mother, Brenda. Neither the Marian Health Center nor St. Luke’s Hospital, also in Sioux City, had admitted Brenda Feyh or the other Manchester resident, Walter Williams of 147 Edgerton St. Survivors of the crash were reported to have been brought to those two hospitals. Licia Lindley, who lives in the same building as the Feyhs. said the father, Melvin Feyh, and his teen-age daughter left Friday morning for Sioux City. The boy is a classmate of Lindiey’s son, she said.
