#OscarsSoWhite: how Stuart Hall explains why nothing changes in Hollywood and everything is changing

ABSTRACT

Stuart Hall’s work on culture, representation, ideology and hegemony positions Hollywood as a cultural institution informed by and informative of US social values and norms. Thus contemporary debates over Hollywood's diversity are indicative of broader social conflicts. Empirically the article examines 2014–2015 news coverage of Hollywood to question the Hollywood paradox—the lack of diversity in film/TV production yet TV’s increasing shift towards on-screen diversity. It maps three discursive frames: Hollywood exceptionalism, economic imperatives, and institutionalized racism and sexism. The article concludes by using Hulu’s East Los High to reflect on TV’s digital turn and innovative models in production and representation.     

Hybrid ants-like search algorithms for P2P media streaming distribution in ad hoc networks

Media streaming delivery in wireless ad hoc networks is challenging due to the stringent resource restrictions,po-tential high loss rate and the decentralized architecture. To support long and high-quality streams,one viable approach is that a media stream is partitioned into segments,and then the segments are replicated in a network and served in a peer-to-peer(P2P) fashion. However,the searching strategy for segments is one key problem with the approach. This paper proposes a hybrid ants-like search algorithm(HASA) for P2P media streaming distribution in ad hoc networks. It takes the advantages of random walks and ants-like algorithms for searching in unstructured P2P networks,such as low transmitting latency,less jitter times,and low unnecessary traffic. We quantify the performance of our scheme in terms of response time,jitter times,and network messages for media streaming distribution. Simulation results showed that it can effectively improve the search efficiency for P2P media streaming distribution in ad hoc networks.     

高等教育大众化背景下的大学生稳定工作

高等教育从精英阶段向大众化阶段的转变，既为高等教育的发展提供了广阔的前景，也产生了一些影响大学生稳定的新因素，如教育资源的相对短缺，学习费用上升，毕业就业困难，特困生增多。当前，要做好大学生稳定工作，必须有针对性地加强形势政策教育，必须建立大学生的舆情调查、分析、反馈体系，必须构建强有力的就业指导，服务体系和帮困体系。     

反思幼儿园教学中家长资源的开发与利用——基于生态教学观视角

从生态教学观视角看,幼儿园教学中家长资源的开发与利用存在着重利用轻开发、重临时轻长远、重配合轻参与等问题,这在一定程度上导致幼儿园教学的生态失调,降低了幼儿园教学的有效性。为此,幼儿园管理者和教师必须树立生态教学观,对家长资源与幼儿园教学的关系进行生态性建构,以期重建幼儿园教学的生态平衡。
