Does this question/reason extend to other disciplines as well?

Reminds me of something I've been thinking about from Teju Cole:

All technology arises out of specific social circumstances. In our time, as in previous generations, cameras and the mechanical tools of photography have rarely made it easy to photograph black skin. The dynamic range of film emulsions, for example, were generally calibrated for white skin and had limited sensitivity to brown, red or yellow skin tones. Light meters had similar limitations, with a tendency to underexpose dark skin. And for many years, beginning in the mid-1940s, the smaller film-developing units manufactured by Kodak came with Shirley cards, so-named after the white model who was featured on them and whose whiteness was marked on the cards as “normal.” Some of these instruments improved with time. In the age of digital photography, for instance, Shirley cards are hardly used anymore. But even now, there are reminders that photographic technology is neither value-free nor ethnically neutral. In 2009, the face-recognition technology on HP webcams had difficulty recognizing black faces, suggesting, again, that the process of calibration had favored lighter skin.

Sample annotation:

1. Are there any other examples that might fit either type of documentary?
2. Explain whether and why war crime documentaries might be trending a specific direction.

Following from a distance, I was grateful for the many on-site participants engaging with the conference openly.

i.e. I’m Collecting Resources From #OpenEd16 (Sharing Results Here)

Hoping to make the next OpenEd conference with you.

I've heard similar sentiments expressed regularly by online educators, despite the cognitive dissonance this might create when we first think about the idea of online interactions being humanizing.

Reminds me of an article I read in the Chronicle recently

It appears that the "sharp relief" does not necessarily end with Graduate school.

What Do Professors Do All Day

This tension is also addressed in a post from an instructor who recently failed to receive tenure.
