The document discusses the transition from traditional literacy to new literacy in the digital age. It argues that Jewish literacy and identity are shaped by technological changes in how information is represented and shared. Specifically, it notes the crumbling of traditional canons and need for Jewish texts to adapt representation to new visual and collaborative formats online in order to remain relevant to a new generation of readers. The document outlines strategies like transferring old content to new platforms and adopting a "bridging" approach between old and new literacy to ensure Jewish literacy and identity can thrive in the digital world.

Artistic experiments in geographyMichael Gallagher

This document discusses moving beyond traditional representations in geography towards more experiential approaches. It argues that contemporary art can immerse audiences in embodied experiences that engage a wider public and allow for contested meanings, rather than trying to fix definite understandings. Some challenges mentioned are evaluating more subjective experiences and navigating political issues when engaging broader audiences.Transculturation, Transliteracy And Generative Poetics
Transculturation, Transliteracy And Generative PoeticsInteraction Design Association Chapter S達o Paulo
油
This document discusses the concepts of transculturation, transliteracy, and generative poetics in the context of global communications and its effects on language, identity, and creative practices. It analyzes John Cayley's digital work "Translation" which uses machine algorithms to transform text in a way that abstracts it to its underlying structural patterns while removing recognizable semantics. The document argues that meaning depends on context, and that language, culture, identity, and technology should be seen not as isolated concepts but as constantly regenerating networks of relations that inform each other.Second Looks

This document summarizes discussions from the CATaC'10 conference at the University of British Columbia. It touches on several topics, including theoretical frameworks for understanding technology and communication, the relationship between online and offline identities and communities, and how networked technologies are shaping concepts of self and culture. It questions whether individualism is being replaced by a focus on relational and collective identities, and explores how social media platforms commodify user data and identities.Introduction to Semiosphere - 2010

The document introduces Yuri Lotman's concept of the semiosphere, defined as a semiotic environment where multiple systems interact and generate meaning. Key elements include a central 'kernel,' a periphery, and a frontier, illustrating how cultural communication operates within semiotic frameworks. It emphasizes structural heterogeneity, memory dynamics, and the importance of dialogue in creating new meanings within cultural contexts.Urban planning and storytelling
Urban planning and storytelling Moussa S竪ne
油
Urban planning involves using persuasive storytelling to engage communities. Narratives express symbolic meaning and connect people by enhancing understanding of different voices. Storytelling allows diverse groups to find shared visions or help opposing sides work through conflicts. To understand community issues and potential solutions, planners must study how stories are structured. It is important to identify stakeholders, understand a community's foundational narrative, and use storytelling to facilitate collaboration and build trust. Stories must be relevant to the intended audience and adapted based on their culture. Effective community engagement involves communities jointly crafting and sharing stories to create a collective identity from their experiences.Understanding Spatial Metaphors
Understanding Spatial Metaphorscultsem
油
The document discusses Yuri Lotman's concept of boundaries in semiotic theory. Some key points:
1) For Lotman, boundaries are not fixed lines but dynamic, permeable zones that lie between the organized "core" of internal semiotics and the chaotic outside "periphery".
2) Boundaries play a key role in semiotic individuation, defining the limits between one's own organized, safe space and the "other" hostile, chaotic space.
3) Boundaries separate and unite simultaneously. They allow for translation between contiguous semiotic spaces and the transformation of external texts into internal texts. Innovation occurs through such boundary crossings.
4) The entire semiosphere is transectedCulture Text

The document discusses Lotman's approach to developing a cultural typology and analyzing culture texts. Lotman aims to create a uniform metalanguage system that allows examination of particular cultures while also identifying cultural universals. This would provide a means of studying cultures from the perspective of shared structures and comprehending cultural texts as a single, organized system. Key aspects of Lotman's approach include describing cultures using spatial models and considering how cultural models relate to culture texts and sign systems.*Handout10 weave oxford

Katie King discusses the challenges of transdisciplinary work under conditions of global academic restructuring. On one hand, disciplines strengthen identities to maintain authority, while interdisciplinary work is more easily assessed through clear outcomes. However, diverging knowledge worlds complicate such management. She advocates an approach of "knowledge-weaving" that embraces different genres and audiences to address these issues. Transdisciplinary work requires navigating between disciplinary chauvinisms and easily assessed interdisciplinarity under current academic conditions.The Endeaver

This document discusses the concept of multiliteracies and its importance for teaching English. It defines multiliteracies as involving a multiplicity of discourses, being influenced by new technologies and multimedia, and incorporating different representational forms like visual design. Research shows literacy is not singular but takes multiple forms based on one's environment and culture. This shift means teaching English must include situated practice with new literacies, overt instruction on interpreting various meanings, and applying understandings to different contexts. Incorporating popular culture and media can develop important cognitive skills. Teaching multiliteracies requires openness to changing literacies and social relations in digital spaces.Essay On Speech.pdf

A Social Cultural Approach To Discourse AnalysisAsia Smith
油
This document discusses social cultural discourse analysis. It begins by defining discourse analysis and dividing it into 5 categories, including social cultural analysis. Social cultural analysis regards discourse as interactional activities and emphasizes the social function of language. It analyzes how social and cultural factors relate to discourse. Language interacts within social cultural contexts, so discourse meaning depends on context like gender, class, ethnicity, age, and status. Discourse both influences and is influenced by its context in a dialectical relationship. The document then provides examples to illustrate how language builds social realities like activities, identities, politics, and knowledge systems through situated meanings within cultural models in social interaction.343 week 3

LITERACY PAPERGeraldine O'Meara

This document discusses perspectives on literacy and their implications for teaching and learning. It covers two main perspectives: 1) cognitive literacy, which views literacy as a set of cognitive skills, and 2) social literacy, which sees literacy as social practices that are culturally and historically situated. The document argues that the social perspective better captures how literacy is used in real life and should inform educational practice. It discusses theorists like Street who see literacy as embedded in existing social structures and serving ideological functions, not as neutral skills. The document concludes that a sociocultural approach recognizing multiple literacies embedded in social practices offers the most illuminating framework for education.INTRODUCTION TO 21ST CENTURY LITERACIES1

Sustainable Innovation with Immersive LearningLeonel Morgado

Prof. Leonel and Prof. Dennis approached educational uses, practices, and strategies of using immersion as a lens to interpret, design, and planning educational activities in a sustainable way. Rather than one-off gimmicks, the intent is to enable instructors (and institutions) to be able to include them in their regular activities, including the ability to evaluate and redesign them.
Immersion as a phenomenon enables interpreting pedagogical activities in a learning-agnostic way: you take a stance on the learning theory to follow, and leverage immersion to envision and guide your practice.How to Customize Quotation Layouts in Odoo 18

They ruled in Gujarat from the latter half of the tenth century to the beginning of the thirteenth century. Their capital was in Anahilwad. It is not certain whether it had any relation with the Chalukya dynasty of the south or not.

From Orwell and Hemingway to Tagore and Sarala Das, the quiz traversed a global and Indian literary landscape. Unique rounds explored slipstream fiction, constrained writing, adaptations, and true crime literature. It included signature IDs, character identifications, and open-pounce selections. Questions were crafted to test contextual understanding, narrative knowledge, and authorial intent, making the quiz both intellectually rewarding and culturally rich.
