An Introduction to Interaction

Understanding Talk in Formal and Informal Settings

By: Angela Cora Garcia

This textbook provides an in-depth introduction to the theoretical perspectives and methods of doing conversation analysis, an approach to the study of talk in interaction which grew out of the work of Garfinkel, Sacks, Schegloff, and Jefferson. This book is unique in that it provides comprehensive instruction in both interaction in ordinary conversations in everyday life as well as talk in institutional settings and a wide range of workplace and business interactions, while teaching both major research findings and how to conduct conversation analytic research. The book is designed to be useful for students of linguistics, sociology, and communication studies, and is written in clear and accessible prose. The Companion Website provides additional resources for instructors, such as questions and data excerpts for tests and in class exercises, audio and video clips for transcription practice, and guides for instructors on a range of topics covered in the course.

How New York Became American, 1890–1924

By: Angela M. Blake

Drawing on a wide range of textual and visual primary sources, Blake guides the reader through New York's many civic identities, from the first generation of New York skyscrapers and their role in "Americanizing" the city to the promotion of Midtown as the city's definitive public face. Her study ranges from the late 1890s into the early twentieth century, when the United States suddenly emerged as an imperial power, and the nation's industry, commerce, and culture stood poised to challenge Europe's global dominance. New York, the nation's largest city, became the de facto capital of American culture. Social reformers and tourism boosters, keen to see America's cities rival those of France or Britain, jockeyed for financial and popular support.

25 Years of 22 Minutes

An Unauthorized Oral History of This Hour Has 22 Minutes, As Told by Cast Members, Staff, and Guests

By: Angela Mombourquette

“A great read for anyone who is a fan of the long-running Canadian comedy series—or just TV comedy in general.” —Brioux.tv The final chaotic season of Codco had just wrapped when Mary Walsh sat down at a Toronto bistro with George Anthony, then creative head of CBC TV’s arts programming. She’d been thinking about a news-based comedy show—did he think that would fly? He did. That was the early ‘90s. Twenty-five seasons later, hundreds of thousands of Canadians continue to tune in weekly to This Hour Has 22 Minutes for its unashamedly Canadian, biting satirical take on politics and power. 25 Years of 22 Minutes takes readers backstage to hear first-hand accounts of the show’s key moments—in the words of the writers, producers and cast members who were there. Readers will have a front-row seat to the birth of the show—including a crisis that had producers scrambling in the very first episode—and offer an insider’s take on the highs, the lows, and the daily grind behind the scenes at 22 Minutes. “A book that stands as a shining testament to the many ‘behind-the scenes’ figures who’ve made the show tick for 25 years.” —Halifax Examiner “The book includes unvarnished accounts of cast rivalries, off-air pranks, fast food with prime ministers and satirical moments that influenced the real Canadian news cycle . . . an inside look at the people, characters and moments they’ve come to know intimately through their screens.” —Atlantic Books Today

Fountain

By: Angela Thaden Hahn

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Fountain

By: Angela Thaden Hahn

Historic Fountain lays nestled near the confluence of Fountain Creek and Jimmy Camp Creek. Ute Indians, French fur trappers, covered wagons, and stagecoaches all passed through this fertile valley along the Cherokee Trail until Amos Terrell settled here in the early 1860s, followed by farmers and ranchers. Businessmen soon began to buy town lots as Terrell sold off portions of his land. The railroad eventually pushed its way through town from Denver to Pueblo, while new arrivals of Mexican ancestry came up from the south with their strong work ethic and zesty Southwestern culture. Camp Carson became Fountain's neighbor to the west in 1942, and since then, the small town has seen steady growth as it remains an important hub in the Fountain Valley. Fountain was honored to be named "Millennium City" in 2000, as it represents the diverse character of the entire country.

A History of Ghosts

The True Story of Séances, Mediums, Ghosts, and Ghostbusters

By: Peter H. Aykroyd,Angela Narth

Peter Aykroyd spent his childhood watching his family's parlor séances through the crack of a basement door. Here, for the first time, Aykroyd tells the strange and delightful story that inspired his son, Dan, to make the mega-hit, Ghostbusters. Part history, part family legend, A History of Ghosts starts in 1848 in upstate New York, where the spiritualist craze first began. Aykroyd introduces the reader to notable mediums while telling the story of the development of spiritualism, interweaving a personal history marked by a fascination with ghosts and spirits with the larger narrative about the role the paranormal has played in our culture. Such legendary figures as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Harry Houdini appear and vanish. Everyone loves a good ghost story. Successful TV shows such as Medium and Ghost Hunters are proof that our national obsession with ghosts is here to stay. Millions of Americans believe in the paranormal—and even skeptics have heard a bump in the night and suspected it might be something supernatural.

Scratching Out a Living

Latinos, Race, and Work in the Deep South

By: Angela Stuesse

What does globalization look like in the rural South? Scratching Out a Living takes readers deep into Mississippi's chicken processing communities and workplaces, where large numbers of Latin American migrants began arriving in the mid-1990s to labor alongside an established African American workforce in some of the most dangerous and lowest paid jobs in the country. Based on six years of collaboration with a local workers' center, activist anthropologist Angela Stuesse explores how Black, white, and new Latino residents have experienced and understood these transformations. Illuminating connections between the area's long history of racial inequality, the poultry industry's growth, immigrants' contested place in contemporary social relations, and workers' prospects for political mobilization, Scratching Out a Living calls for organizing strategies that bring diverse working communities together in mutual construction of a more just future"--Provided by publisher.

Diversity and Inclusion on Campus

Supporting Racially and Ethnically Underrepresented Students

By: Rachelle Winkle-Wagner,Angela M. Locks

As scholars and practitioners in higher education attempt to embrace and lead diversity efforts, it is imperative that they have an understanding of the issues that affect historically underrepresented students. Using an intersectional approach that connects the categories of race, class, and gender, Diversity and Inclusion on Campus comprehensively covers the range of college experiences, from gaining access to higher education to successfully persisting through degree programs. Authors Winkle-Wagner and Locks bridge research, theory, and practice related to the ways that peers, faculty, administrators, and institutions can and do influence racially and ethnically underrepresented students’ experiences. This book is an invaluable resource for future and current higher education and student affairs practitioners working toward full inclusion and participation for all students in higher education. Special features: Chapter Case Studies—cases written by on-the-ground practitioners help readers make meaningful connections between theory, research, and practice. Coverage of Theory and Research—each chapter provides a systematic treatment of the literature and research related to underrepresented students’ experiences of getting into college, getting through college, and getting out of college. Discussion Questions—questions encourage practitioners and researchers to explore concepts in more depth, consider best practices, and make connections to their own contexts.

Clarksville

By: Angela Rodesky

Clarksville may have been put on the map as a major tobacco port at the confluence of the Cumberland and Red Rivers, but ever since the founding of Fort Campbell--home of the 101st Airborne Division--in 1942, Clarksville has expanded rapidly and is currently the fifth-largest city in the state of Tennessee. Reinvention of its historic mainstays, such as Austin Peay State University and the Roxy Theatre, has brought new cultural activity to the area. The Monkees' 1966 hit single "Last Train to Clarksville" was inspired by the local Louisville & Nashville Railroad depot. The Leaf-Chronicle, Tennessee's oldest newspaper, has continued to publish in Clarksville, capturing its endless growth and redevelopment. Today, the tight-knit community continues to uphold its brand as "Tennessee's Top Spot.

Educational Psychology

Reflection for Action

By: Angela M. O'Donnell,Johnmarshall Reeve,Jeffrey K. Smith

Teachers help students learn, develop, and realize their potential. To become successful in their craft, teachers need to learn how to establish high-quality relationships with their students, and they need to learn how to implement instructional strategies that promote students' learning, development, and potential. To prepare pre-service teachers for the profession, the study of educational psychology can help them to better understand their students and better understand their process of teaching. Such is the twofold purpose of Educational Psychology – to help pre-service teachers understand their future students better and to help them understand all aspects of the teaching-learning situation. The pursuit of these two purposes leads to the ultimate goal of this text – namely, to help pre-service teachers become increasingly able to promote student learning, development, and potential when it becomes their turn to step into the classroom and take full-time responsibility for their own classes.

Human Resources Management Decision Making Process in King Saud Medical City

How Informed is It?

By: Angela Moore

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: B, University of Sheffield, language: English, abstract: This research study examines the human resources management decision making process in addressing the present and future needs of King Saud Medical City. The main purpose of the study is to investigate the readiness of healthcare managers in meeting present and future challenges faced by the human resources decision making process in healthcare organizations. King Saud Medical City was selected as a model healthcare organization to gain understanding of the HR decision making process for this study. This research adopts grounded theory methodology in establishing tactical decisions being made by health managers. Grounded theory is an appropriate qualitative tool for this purpose because it emphasizes on systematic procedures in understanding critical HR factors impacting decision making and description of the phenomenon as grounded within study participant expressions. The participants in this study comprises of 12 managers from Kind Saud Medical City with experience in healthcare management. A semi-structured interview method was used for the collection of the data. Constant comparative approach was used in the analysis of the interview transcripts by coding and analyzing participant’s expressions in order to identify categories and themes related to human resource decision making in healthcare organizations. Results from the study reveal four core obstacles managers in KSMC face in making decisions regarding human resources. These barriers include organizational culture and structure which was considered as a core determinant hindering decision making, lack of authority was ranked second from participants’ perspective views, third was lack of self-confidence in decision making, and lack of adequate knowledge and skills among managers. The highly centralized approach for HR decision making was found to be the core reason for these obstacles. Understanding the overall phenomenon “highly centralized” healthcare system, and removal of identified barriers in the way of managers significantly alleviates the present situation by offering managers necessarily authority, encouraging self-confidence, and effectively making decisions that would enhance quality and address human resources issues.
