The notion that journalists in an interconnected world increasingly share values typically associated with the so-called “professional model” has gained considerable currency with scholars arguing that ideas such as a belief in journalistic autonomy, public service, objectivity, and the significance of ethics are widely espoused by journalists on a global scale. Underlying this conceptualization is a taken-for-granted assumption regarding the adoption of journalistic values that originated in Western democracies which neglects how they are embraced in non-Western contexts. This paper examines newsroom values in India’s regional television channels, which have emerged as a major news source in the country. Findings indicate that in the case of Indian regional television, local socio-political and economic factors undermine the adoption of professional norms derived from the Anglo-European model by Indian journalists who see such norms as having little functional value or relevance to their work. 相似文献

This article describes a performance improvement project undertaken in the manufacturing unit of a multinational company in India that specializes in the business of engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC). The article includes a brief introduction to the company's business (leaving out the name of the company due to a clause of confidentiality). The objective of the article is to describe a set of performance problems and how various performance theories, models, and tools were used to identify root causes and to implement design solutions for improvement. The article describes how the author as an internal consultant employed various consulting principles to establish a strong platform of understanding and to build a partnership with the clients. In addition, the different stages used in analyzing the problem, applying performance models, and designing solutions are presented. The article concludes with the author's sharing his personal experiences and the feedback he received from project stakeholders. 相似文献

In 2004, Ray Land produced extensive literature on the 12 orientations of academic developers. These orientations provided academic developers with a useful tool through which they have been able to better articulate their roles and their place in academia. We have used the orientations model to establish, compare, and contrast the identity of sixteen academic developers from the UK and from Japan. The findings reveal that research is a key orientation recognised by both groups, although is expressed differently by academic developers from the two countries. The political strategist orientation was considered important amongst managers irrespective of their cultural backgrounds. 相似文献

Large-eddy simulation of atmospheric flow is combined with golf ball trajectory modeling that incorporates local plant canopy information to predict the trajectory of a golf shot at any hole on a golf course in a variety of wind conditions. The model is applied to examine golf shots on hole 12 of the Augusta National Golf Club, which is particularly well known for its wind-induced difficulty. The results indicate that the tree canopies around this hole play a significant role in golf ball trajectories and also induce a strong directional sensitivity on the landing spot of the ball for this hole. 相似文献

This summative/programmatic essay outlines how the field of International Communication today is underpinned by a central concern with issues of “culture.” An epistemic model for how to understand this new use of culture is sketched, arguing that the term “culture” operationalizes issues of nationalism, modernism, capitalism, postmodernism and post colonialism. The relationship of this model for media forms such as television is then undertaken. Detailed End Notes engage with relevant literature from the field of International Communication. 相似文献

Improving course evaluations to improve instruction and complex learning in higher education 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Recent research has touted the benefits of learner-centered instruction, problem-based learning, and a focus on complex learning.
Instructors often struggle to put these goals into practice as well as to measure the effectiveness of these new teaching
strategies in terms of mastery of course objectives. Enter the course evaluation, often a standardized tool that yields little
practical information for an instructor, but is nonetheless utilized in making high-level career decisions, such as tenure
and monetary awards to faculty. The present researchers have developed a new instrument to measure teaching and learning quality
(TALQ). In the current study of 464 students in 12 courses, if students agreed that their instructors used First Principles
of Instruction and also agreed that they experienced academic learning time (ALT), then students were about 5 times more likely
to achieve high levels of mastery of course objectives and 26 times less likely to achieve low levels of mastery, according to independent instructor assessments. TALQ can measure improvements in use of First Principles in
teaching and course design. The feedback from this instrument can assist teachers who wish to implement the recommendation
made by Kuh et al. (2007) that universities and colleges should focus their assessment efforts on factors that influence student success. 相似文献
