Instead computational thinking is being taught earlier, to teenagers and younger children at school’ (Bradshaw, 2017, p. 1). This essay is a confession, a few excuses, but mainly an explanation why I, and other tertiary journalism educators like me, have not leapt at the opportunity to teach computational thinking and why you should not hate us for it. I remember trying to keep a poker face on, sitting around a table of respectable international colleagues, listening to one advocating passionately for teaching computational thinking to all journalism students. My inner monologue was howling, ‘OMG, No! Not more! My course is full to the brim and bursting’. I looked carefully at the faces around the table. Some were nodding. Others, like me, had tight brows and clenched jaws. We were in Paris at the World Journalism Education Congress in July 2019. The breakout group was the syndicate discussing the topic: ‘Teaching Data Journalism and Computational Skills’. Not a lot of love was shown in the discussion that followed for the idea of wheeling in a barrow-load of computational thinking. We broke it down and talked instead about quantitative literacy; we also talked about math aversion and my poker face dissolved. I am genuinely happy to talk to my students about their learnt number-phobia, experimental design and how to report statistics with confidence (Davies, 2019). Computational thinking felt like a bridge too far though, so I have been pondering why ever since.","PeriodicalId":43557,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Media Educator","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1326365x20970421","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41495010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a constructivist grounded theory approach (Charmaz, 1995, Rethinking methods in psychology, SAGE Publications, pp. 27–65; Charmaz, 2000, Handbook of qualitative research (2nd ed.), SAGE Publications, pp. 509–535; Charmaz, 2015, International Encyclopedia of the social & behavioral sciences (2nd ed.), ScienceDirect, pp. 6396–6399) in which I simultaneously collected and analysed the news stories, I identify three themes or ‘frames’ of disability present in Japanese media about disabled people and their capacity for societal integration through employment. My analysis is theoretically significant in showing how news media in Japan frames stories about disabled people in both traditionally ableist and progressive ways. My findings indicate that some news stories construct disability as tantamount to unproductivity, while others perceive disabled workers as valuable contributors to the country’s labour force. This article will be of theoretical interest to media disability scholars seeking to understand how Clogston’s (1990, Disability coverage in 16 newspapers, The Advocado Press) and Haller’s (1995) models of disability can be applied to the Japanese context. This article will also be of general interest to communication scholars conscious of framing theory, which contends that mass media determines what is salient or ‘newsworthy’ about a story based on how visuals, information and images are selected and presented to audiences.","PeriodicalId":43557,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Media Educator","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1326365X20970423","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43272963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, the study employed quantitative research design, which involved the survey of a sample of 12,000 respondents taken from among the community members constituting the audience of the community radio stations in the country. The study employed multi-stage sampling to first identify 12 community radio stations, in the first instance, followed by the identification of one thousand households in each of these community radio stations and one respondent from each of the selected households, giving due consideration to the parity of gender. The data collected from each of these 12,000 respondents was processed with the help of descriptive statistical tools to arrive at inferences necessary to achieve the purposes of the study. The study revealed that while community members were comfortable in solving simple mathematical sums and calculating their wages, they experienced difficulties in the use of mathematical skills in the computation of interest, discount, percentage and conversion of scales of measurement. The study further revealed that community members listened to radio extensively and were eager to not just listen to radio programmes based on the imparting of mathematical skills but also willing to adopt a participatory approach in their production, based on their competencies.","PeriodicalId":43557,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Media Educator","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1326365x20970431","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47525887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Information and communications technology has become an integral part of everyone’s life in contemporary times. Media professionals are engaged in using various types of digital and online media for their work-related needs. At many times, due to extensive work requirements, they carry their professional commitments outside the office hours. Due to their obsessive media consumption attitude, they lose out on spending time with their families and themselves. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of such media consumption attitude in relation to personal well-being. For this, 429 working professionals from different domains of media across the Indian subcontinent participated in our survey. The results revealed that media usage has a significant role in influencing personal well-being. At the same time, emotional ownership stood to be a mediator in the relationship between media consumption attitude and personal well-being. The findings pave the way to understand the professional and personal challenges faced by media professionals, while suggesting a possible roadmap for achieving a happy and purposeful life.","PeriodicalId":43557,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Media Educator","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1326365X20970424","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42203322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Corpora of the study comprised of 500 editorials published in Pakistani English newspapers, that is, The Daily Dawn and The Daily News (250 editorials from each newspaper) which were analysed with the help of AntConc 3.4.4.0. Results show Pakistani editorial writers use all types of modals (i.e., prediction, possibility, necessity, modal adverbs, reporting verbs, knowledge verbs and generic phrases). The editorial writers use these modals to mark personal stance while commenting, reporting or informing about the state of affairs. Among these modals the use of prediction markers is the most frequent which indicates that prediction is a characteristic feature as well as function in the said newspaper editorials. Results also reveal that there is a difference in the use of modal adverbs in the editorials of both newspapers. In addition, the results reveal that the editorial writers of The Daily Dawn make less use of prediction markers as compared to the editorial writers of The Daily News. The study creates awareness of the stance of editorial writers’ and how it might affect readers’ opinions.","PeriodicalId":43557,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Media Educator","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1326365X20945424","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44949030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
