COVID-19 and Schools Policy Stakeholders and School Choice

This book features contributions from leading experts who present peer reviewed research on how the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic affected U. S. teachers students parents teaching practices enrolments and institutional innovations offering the first empirical findings exploring educational impacts likely to last for decades. The COVID-19 pandemic presented the greatest crisis in the history of U. S. schooling with America’s 50 states thousands of school systems and tens of thousands of private and charter schools responding in myriad ways. This book brings together peer reviewed empirical research on how U. S. schools responded and on the educational and health impacts likely to persist for many years. Contributors explore how the U. S. responses differed from those in other countries with slower reopening and both reopening and modes of instruction varying widely across states and school sectors. Compared to European countries U. S. responses to reopening schools reflected political influences more than health or educational needs though this was less true in market-based private and charter schools. The pandemic was a catalyst for school choice movements across the U. S. Many parents reacted to school closings by exploring alternatives to traditional public schools including an important and likely permanent innovation small parent-created or “pod” schools. As the papers here detail long term student learning loss and health and socioemotional impacts of COVID-19 closings may well last for decades. The volume concludes by exploring teacher experiences across different sectors following the pandemic. COVID-19 and Schools will be a key resource for academics researchers and advanced students of education education policy and leadership educational research research methods economics sociology and psychology. The chapters included in this book were originally published as a special issue of Journal of School Choice. | COVID-19 and Schools Policy Stakeholders and School Choice

The Essential Television Handbook

Donald J. Trump's Presidency Communicating Race and Migration

Donald J. Trump's Presidency Communicating Race and Migration

This book captures Donald J. Trump’s presidency by addressing the remarkable tropes that defined that period. It offers research-based investigations of the communicative aspects of Trump’s presidency with a focus on race immigration xenophobia and social conflicts as they interact with communication. The book utilizes research data to capture critical moments of the presidency. Chapters examine metadiscourse during President Trump’s press events where he accused the media of “Nasty Question” and “Fake News” offer computational framing analysis to expose the communication of racism and xenophobia in US-Mexico cross-border wall discourses and provide critical textual analysis of select episodes of CW’s critically acclaimed TV show Jane the Virgin exposing how citizenship or lack thereof shapes one’s relationship to the state and surrounding communities. They also offer textual analysis to demonstrate how a predominantly White newsroom differs from a newsroom that is racially diverse against the backdrop of the coverage of two politically charged issues of Black Lives Matter and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and explore interdisciplinary concepts related to understanding immigrants’ and sojourners’ believability evaluation of disinformation. Donald J. Trump's Presidency will be a key resource for scholars and researchers of communication studies political communication media and cultural studies race and ethnic studies and political science while also appealing to anyone interested in the communicative aspects of Trump’s presidency and American politics. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Howard Journal of Communications. | Donald J. Trump's Presidency Communicating Race and Migration

Wireless and Mobile Networking

Wireless and Mobile Networking

There has been phenomenal uptake of wireless and mobile networking technologies in the past decades. Significant developments have taken place during this time making the wireless technology more affordable effective and reliable. This book explains the fundamental principles and protocols of key existing and emerging wireless networking technologies. The book begins with a review of the fundamentals of wireless communications. It covers the basic theories and terminologies of coding and modulation which maps digital information to the underlying signal as well as the models to capture the dynamics of wireless signal propagation in the environment. It provides in-depth coverage of the WiFi evolution covering both the mainstream WiFi which operates in 2. 4/5GHz with new versions targeting 6GHz as well as some of the niche WiFi standards that operate outside the mainstream bands such as 802. 11af in 700MHz TV bands 802. 11ah in 900MHz to connect the Internet of Things (IoT) and 802. 11ad/ay in 60GHz to support multi-gigabit applications. The book covers the fundamental concepts of cellular networks examines the advancements brought forth by each generation and discusses new applications and the underpinning wireless technologies promised by 5G. It also covers a recently developed long-range low-power wireless networking technology called LoRa which is the fastest growing technology to connect millions of IoT sensors and devices throughout the world. The concluding chapters examine emerging wireless paradigms such as Artificial Intelligence for wireless networking sensing with wireless signals and mobile networking with flying base stations carried by drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). With many worked-out examples illustrative figures and multiple choice questions this book is an ideal for students and a valuable reference for anyone working in this rapidly evolving field.
