Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racially and economically segregated schools across the United States have hosted many interventions from commercial digital education technology (edtech) companies who promise their products will rectify the failures of public education. Edtech's benefits are not only trumpeted by industry promoters and evangelists but also vigorously pursued by experts, educators, students, and teachers. Why, then, has edtech yet to make good on its promises? In Access Is Capture, Roderic N. Crooks investigates how edtech functions in Los Angeles public schools that exclusively serve Latinx and Black communities. These so-called urban schools are sites of intense, ongoing technological transformation, where the tantalizing possibilities of access to computing meet the realities of structural inequality. Crooks shows how data-intensive edtech delivers value to privileged individuals and commercial organizations but never to the communities that hope to share in the benefits. He persuasively argues that data-drivenness ultimately enjoins the public to participate in a racial project marked by the extraction of capital from minoritized communities to enrich the tech sector.

Book Survey of Academic Library Use of Lecture Capture Technology

Download or read book Survey of Academic Library Use of Lecture Capture Technology written by Primary Research Group and published by Primary Research Group Inc. This book was released on 2013 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study looks closely at the growing role of the academic library in lecture capture technologies now widely deployed across higher education to capture, preserve and capitalize on the enormous intellectual property embodied in millions of higher education course sessions. The report looks at how academic libraries are themselves using lecture capture in information literacy and other applications, and also how they are playing a role in providing metadata, archiving, technology and education services to other end users of lecture capture technology in higher education. The study provides detailed data on product selection, cooperation with other departments of the college or university over lecture capture deployment, use of lecture capture in technology centers, and the impact of lecture capture on library information literacy efforts.

Book A window random access algorithm for environments with capture

Download or read book A window random access algorithm for environments with capture written by Daniel F. Lyons and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In packet radio environments, where users are independent and bursty, the deployment of Random Access transmission Algorithms, (RAAs), is recommendable. Those algorithms are implemented by each user independently, they are insensitive to changing user population, and they induce low delays. Several such algorithms have been proposed, and generally analyzed in idealistic, (noiseless and with no propagation delays), environments, and subject to the assumptions that when simultaneous transmission is then necessary, and that a single transmission is involved packets is lost and retransmission is then necessary, and that a single transmission is always received correctly. In realistic packet radio environments, however, several phenomena occur. Specifically, atmospheric noise, forward propagation delays, and multipath fading are present. Due to the atmospheric noise and the multipath fading, single transmissions are not always received correctly by the receiver. In addition, the differential forward propagation delays may be used beneficially, to allow locking in and thus capture of some packet, when simultaneous transmissions occur.

  • Author : Antoine Traisnel
  • Publisher : U of Minnesota Press
  • Release : 2020-09-29
  • ISBN : 1452963916
  • Pages : 284 pages

Download or read book Capture written by Antoine Traisnel and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading canonical works of the nineteenth century through the modern transformation of human–animal relations From Audubon’s still-life watercolors to Muybridge’s trip-wire locomotion studies, from Melville’s epic chases to Poe’s detective hunts, the nineteenth century witnessed a surge of artistic, literary, and scientific treatments that sought to “capture” the truth of animals at the historical moment when animals were receding from everyday view. In Capture, Antoine Traisnel reveals how the drive to contain and record disappearing animals was a central feature and organizing pursuit of the nineteenth-century U.S. cultural canon. Capture offers a critical genealogy of the dominant representation of animals as elusive, precarious, and endangered that came to circulate widely in the nineteenth century. Traisnel argues that “capture” is deeply continuous with the projects of white settler colonialism and the biocapitalist management of nonhuman and human populations, demonstrating that the desire to capture animals in representation responded to and normalized the systemic disappearance of animals effected by unprecedented changes in the land, the rise of mass slaughter, and the new awareness of species extinction. Tracking the prototyping of biopolitical governance and capitalist modes of control, Traisnel theorizes capture as a regime of vision by which animals came to be seen, over the course of the nineteenth century, as at once unknowable and yet understood in advance—a frame by which we continue to encounter animals today.

Book Mass Capture

  • Release : 2021-11-15
  • ISBN : 0228009332
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book Mass Capture written by Lily Cho and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under the terms of the Chinese Immigration Act of 1885, Canada implemented a vast protocol for acquiring detailed personal information about Chinese migrants. Among the bewildering array of state documents used in this effort were CI 9s: issued from 1885 to 1953, they included date of birth, place of residence, occupation, identifying marks, known associates, and, significantly, identification photographs. The originals were transferred to microfilm and destroyed in 1963; more than 41,000 grainy reproductions of CI 9s remain. Lily Cho explores how the CI 9s functioned as a form of surveillance and a process of mass capture that produced non-citizens, revealing the surprising dynamism of non-citizenship constantly regulated and monitored, made and remade, by an anxious state. The first mass use of identification photography in Canada, they make up the largest archive of images of Chinese migrants in the country, including people who stood no chance of being photographed otherwise. But CI 9s generated far more information than could be processed, and there is nothing straightforward about the knowledge that they purported to contain. Cho finds traces of alternate forms of kinship in the archive as well as evidence of the ways that families were separated. In attending to the particularities of these images and documents, Mass Capture uncovers the alternative story that lies in the refusals and resistances enacted by the mass captured. Illustrated with painstakingly reconstituted digital reproductions of the microfilm record, Mass Capture reclaims the CI 9s as more than documents of racist repression, suggesting the possibilities for beauty and dignity in the archive, for captivation as well as capture.

Book Capture and Reuse of Project Knowledge in Construction

Download or read book Capture and Reuse of Project Knowledge in Construction written by Hai Chen Tan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An organisation’s competitive advantage lies in the knowledge of its employees and the organisation’s ability to harness that knowledge to meet business objectives. Knowledge management is recognised in the construction industry as a potential tool for providing organisational benefits, but for a number of reasons – particularly the project based nature of construction, where teams are transient, multidisciplinary and often from different organisations – implementation has been only marginally successful. Capture and Reuse of Project Knowledge in Construction describes a methodology for the 'live' capture of reusable project knowledge that reflects both the organisational and human dimensions of knowledge capture and reuse, as well as exploiting the benefits of technology. This methodology was developed in response to the shortcomings of current practices in managing project knowledge, the benefits offered by capturing and sharing knowledge immediately after it is generated, and the organisational benefit of reusing knowledge within a project based environment.
