Media, Transmedia, and a Girl Named Alice | TeachThought | Scriveners' Trappings | Scoop.it

Ever heard of Inanimate Alice? Understand what all the fuss is? If the answer is “no” to either, take a gander below. Oh, and full disclosure: I’m borderline obsessed with media as a rhetorical vehicle, and find its increasingly addictive nature hugely important as digital presence bleeds into physical boundaries, especially in the field of education. If you’re less curious, you may want to do some skimming. This is about as brief as I can get it.

Exploring Empathy

Exploring Empathy | Scriveners' Trappings | Scoop.it

What is this ability to step into someone else’s shoes? To imagine how they feel - and to hurt for them or be happy for them?  Host Frank Stasio is joined by a panel of experts to discuss empathy, the trait that makes us uniquely human.

 

Lasana Harris is an assistant professor in psychology and neuroscience at Duke University; Jesse Prinz is a Distinguished Professor of philosophy at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York; Pate Skene is an associate professor of neurobiology at Duke University and a second year law student; and Ralph Savarese is an associate professor of English at Grinnell College, a Duke Humanities Writ Large Fellow, and the author of “Reasonable People: A Memoir of Autism and Adoption”
