In Ep. 103, Dean Jim Shanahan is joined by Bernard Fraga, Professor of Political Science at Indiana University. Tune in to hear about Fraga's research on voter turnout rates, political polls, and gerrymandering and redistricting.
In episode 94, Associate professor Terri Francis and Dean Shanahan discuss the Black Film Center/Archive’s Michael Shultz film series (including To Be Young, Gifted, and Black, Cooley High, Krush Groove and Car Wash), Francis’s upcoming book about the cinematic career of Josephine Baker, and the realities of Afrosurrealism.
Two major innovators in digital cultural documentation meet for a conversation on goals, methods, frameworks, and business models. Michael Frisch, Professor Emeritus of the University of Buffalo and former president of both the Oral History Association and the American Studies Association, has recently created a consulting firm, Randforce Associates, to develop software for indexing and annotating audio and video documentation. P. Sainath received the 2007 Ramon Magsaysay Award (the “Asian Nobel”) for his “passionate commitment as a journalist to restore the rural poor to India’s national consciousness.” He is Founder-Editor of the crowdfunded, volunteer-sustained People’s Archive of Rural India.
During the past decade, field experiments in the social and behavioral sciences have gained in popularity as the internet has made implementing experiments easier, cheaper, and faster. However, although researchers may have a conceptual knowledge of how experiments work, the actual experience of implementing a field experiment for the first time is often frustrating and time consuming. Researchers without prior experience often struggle with a number of issues such as navigating IRB, obtaining true random sampling and assignment, understanding blocking, and interpreting different types of treatment effects. The initial learning curve may be steep but the rewards are plentiful as experiments produce highly valued original data, lend themselves to causal analysis in ways that traditional survey data cannot, and become easier to implement as a researcher’s experience level increases. This talk will introduce social scientists to the basics of a particular type of field experiment -- the correspondence audit -- and walk through a number of design issues that first time users often struggle with. Dr. Gaddis will provide practical examples from his own and others' work to illuminate some of the pitfalls of this method and help the audience gain confidence in embarking on their own field experiments.
Higginbottom article: parody settings of operatic French overtures by Jean-Baptiste Lully (contemporaneous to the composer's lifetime). George Barth article: historical recordings dating chiefly from the early-twentieth century, with modern style-parody recordings deriving from late-nineteenth century style.
There are many tools and platforms for creating data visualizations, but in order to ensure they communicate in an effective way, your visualizations must be grounded in the appropriate quantitative methods. In this workshop, we will present some problematic humanities datasets and case studies, and use them to walk through the structure and assumptions your data will need to meet in order to create effective data visualizations. Introductory quantitative methods and vocabularies will be presented.
For both theoretical and logistical reasons, many social scientists turn to media texts—archival newspapers, radio and television broadcasts, podcasts, Twitter feeds, etc.—to understand the society that produced them. It may seem easy, because as a regular consumer and producer of media, you are already constantly analyzing the mediated discourse around you: parsing sentences, assessing the veracity of a claim, and making judgments as to the authority, intelligence, and background of a writer or speaker. But how might you denaturalize your “native” media literacy and go about this in a more systematic and rigorous way? In this hands-on workshop, we will sample some of the key methods for analyzing mediated discourse: transcription, critical discourse analysis, building and working with a corpus, capturing digital circulation, and multimodal analysis. Some examples will come from Russian media, but this workshop is open to all IU graduate students.
As government funding tightens, folklorists are turning to the private sector for funding. However, we come up against funders who do not understand folklore or the value of funding folklore projects. Participate in a discussion with grantors from business, corporate, private, and family foundations about how to create partnerships for successful fundraising. How do we engage and inform potential funders about the impact of supporting folklore projects that benefit a diverse and inclusive audience?
Diana Hadley has dedicated her career to educating and advocating for new generations of journalists.
After earning a bachelor’s degree from Purdue in 1971, Hadley took a job at Mooresville High School, where she taught English, speech and journalism for more than 30 years. Despite having no journalism experience, she was assigned to advise the school’s newspaper and teach a journalism course. Incidentally, that was perhaps the single most significant assignment of her life.
“It was the best thing I did, and it was a happy accident,” she said.
Through teaching and advising, she developed an admiration for journalism, which inspired her to pursue a master’s degree in journalism from Indiana University. It took eight years to complete. Although it was challenging to continue to teach, advise publications and earn a master’s degree, dean Richard Gray and advisor Mary Benedict scheduled classes after 4 p.m. and during the summer, allowing Hadley to attend. The rich experience forged a loyalty to IU and the High School Journalism Institute she maintained for the rest of her career.
Hadley spent 10 years advising Mooresville’s television news outlet, 23 advising the school’s yearbook staff and all 33 advising its newspaper staff.
Hadley established the school’s television news outlet when the school received a gift of free broadcast equipment. She developed a broadcast class in which students produced the morning and afternoon announcements. She came to school at 6:30 a.m. every day to supervise her students.
In 1986, Hadley received the Indiana High School Press Association’s Ella Sengenberger Adviser of the Year award. In 1996, she was named Distinguished Adviser of the Year by the Dow Jones News Fund. In 2000, she was a finalist for the Indiana Department of Education’s Teacher of the Year award.
In 2004, after retiring from Mooresville, Hadley began a part-time job at Franklin College as assistant director of IHSPA and part-time instructor in Franklin’s journalism school. She eventually became director of IHSPA and served in that role for 13 years.
Though she didn’t directly advise a high school newspaper or yearbook staff, Hadley continued to dedicate herself to improving the field of high school journalism. She corresponded with high school journalism advisors seeking advice and trekked across Indiana to assist teachers and advisors as they struggled through administrative hassles, freedom of press issues and any other problem that might plague a high school newspaper.
Hadley also started a First Amendment Day at the Statehouse each March — giving up to 400 high school students the opportunity to observe the legislative process — and coordinated the evaluation of hundreds of newspapers and yearbooks to create an annual statewide awards program. She also taught at IU’s High School Journalism Institute for more than 30 summers.
Hadley retired from IHSPA in 2017.
Hadley has received honors and recognition from the Indiana Journalism Hall of Fame, the Indiana State Teachers Association, the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication, the Indiana Department of Education, the Independent Colleges of Indiana and the Woman’s Press Club of Indiana/National Federation of Press Women. In 2017, she received a Sagamore of the Wabash.
