Abstract: This paper describes an enquiry-based teaching programme using Scenario Learning and Pedagogy (SLP), an approach to teaching that is cooperative and multi-layered. The authors review teaching professional communication practices by embedding learning to write and reference a journal-style article in the specific real-world scenario of Business Processes Management (BPM), at a development organisation, the Student Health and Welfare Organisation (SHAWCO), based at the University of Cape Town. The aim of the programme was to develop academic writing and social practices to transform and broaden what can be achieved educationally in the classroom. An interpretative approach, based on student and staff perceptions as well as framing the data through the lens of a multimodal pedagogy such as the New London Group’s Multiliteracies Pedagogical Framework seemed the most appropriate methodologically. A qualitative analysis of classroom pedagogical processes as observed, reported and reflected upon was therefore used. In the past, Information Systems Honours programme students wrote an individual essay at the start of the year but with no input on research, planning and writing. In 2009 students investigated BPM (a real world scenario) related to among others: volunteers on specific education and sports projects, or the BPM in place for marketing education projects. The course started with a lecture on SHAWCO and specific education involvements there, and students were handed two academic papers on BPM before starting their investigation of the scenarios in teams of three. In four two-hour workshops students’ learning was scaffolded. Taking turns in their groups, they presented their work and got feedback on their draft products from lecturers in incremental stages. Simultaneously overt instruction on academic writing (e.g. style and citation) was given and students finally submitted their eight- to twelve-page written document as individuals a few weeks later. Viewing the data through a Multiliteracies Pedagogical Framework lens proves useful from both a theoretical and methodological perspective. For students learning challenges and opportunities in critically evaluating BPM in a development organisation were evident. There was also ‘transformation value’ in embedding learning in an institutional scenario in terms of students learning about IS as a social space. As an open-ended problem-solving framework, Scenario Learning and Pedagogy in addition allowed students to develop academic knowledge and practices based on informed reasoning and analysis. In reflecting on the social world contingent on business processes, students developed metalanguage needed to negotiate between different contexts effectively, an aspect of active and critical/reflective learning and mastery. Pleasing byproducts were raised awareness, motivation and collegiality among staff across the university.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the gender identity work of white transgender and other gender non-conforming identified individuals through their stories and the meanings they attach to important artifacts across the lifespan.
Abstract: The purpose of this research was to critically examine the gender identity work of white transgender and other gender non-conforming identified (TgNCi) people through their stories and the meanings they attach to important artifacts across the lifespan. A single question directed the investigation: How do TgNCi individuals describe gender identity work through lifespan narratives? Thirteen volunteers participated in two interviews: the first, a narration of their life stories and in the second, descriptions of the significance of personal artifacts selected by the participants and photographed by the investigator. Participants’ ages ranged from 22 to 66, according to four pre-determined age ranges of the study design. This allowed for investigation within each age group, and also across all age groups. Qualitative analyses were conducted in three layers: (1) content analysis, (2) Critical Discourse Analysis, and (3) multimodal analysis. Content analysis identified three primary categories describing gender identity work: (1) oppression (from outside), (2) suppression (of preferred gender expression), and (3) the desire for visibility (longing to be recognized by others, and to see the self, as Who-I-Am). Critical Discourse Analysis revealed that in response to violent oppression, participants interrupted their natural agentic actions, speech, and thought processes. The term Interrupted Agency was coined to convey these strategic responses of hiding and secrecy. Multimodal analysis of participants' expressed relationships with material objects exposed three primary functions of the artifacts: (1) tools of visibility, (2) messengers, and (3) laminations. The Running Head: INTERSECTIONS OF IDENTITY WORK 12 closing discussion features the researcher’s meaning making of this gender identity work and addresses future study and research.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the Verwendung visueller Aufzeichnungen in den Sozialwissenschaften, the Ausdifferenzierung und Trennung bild-and videoanalytischer Verfahren and the Varianten and Probleme in der Darstellung of Video and Videoanalysen in Texten nach.
Abstract: Der Beitrag zeichnet die Verwendung visueller Aufzeichnungen in den Sozialwissenschaften, die Ausdifferenzierung und Trennung bild- und videoanalytischer Verfahren und die Varianten und Probleme in der Darstellung von Video und Videoanalysen in Texten nach. Mit Blick auf neue Ansatze in der Bildinterpretation und neue medientechnische Moglichkeiten der Videobearbeitung und Darstellung wird der Einsatz kurzer Animationssequenzen fur die Videoanalyse und Videodarstellung in wissenschaftlichen Texten an einem Beispiel diskutiert.
