The Sustainability Grand Challenge A Wicked Learning Workbook

The Sustainability Grand Challenge A Wicked Learning Workbook

How do universities tackle wicked sustainability challenges faced by society? The Wicked Learning Workbook is a toolkit for setting up and running an interdisciplinary master-level course in the context of real-world problems such as food waste and loss. The book offers a new pedagogical approach that we call 'wicked' because it is unorthodox ambitious and tackles complex problems that won’t go away. The pedagogy is also international at the course level rather than the conventional exchange semester enabling institutions to embed international approaches to their core teaching. The Wicked Learning Workbook speaks directly to academics who are looking for solutions that provide stimuli for research and teaching while giving students an innovative international learning experience. The approach develops student understanding of the UN Sustainable Development Goals as broad-scale societal issues which are difficult if not impossible to ‘solve’. An important outcome of this approach is the laboratory-style classroom that creates opportunities for faculty students and companies to co-create solutions that are immediately implementable. The resulting methodology is based on industry–university collaboration (such as IKEA and Nestlé). The methodology is of interest to corporate leaders pursuing sustainability goals and business transformation. Achieving sustainability requires cross-boundary cross-disciplinary experimental approaches that allow for scalability. Wicked problems can only be tackled with wicked solution approaches. | The Sustainability Grand Challenge A Wicked Learning Workbook

Accessible Filmmaking Integrating translation and accessibility into the filmmaking process

Accessible Filmmaking Integrating translation and accessibility into the filmmaking process

Translation accessibility and the viewing experience of foreign deaf and blind audiences has long been a neglected area of research within film studies. The same applies to the film industry where current distribution strategies and exhibition platforms severely underestimate the audience that exists for foreign and accessible cinema. Translated and accessible versions are usually produced with limited time for little remuneration and traditionally involving zero contact with the creative team. Against this background this book presents accessible filmmaking as an alternative approach integrating translation and accessibility into the filmmaking process through collaboration between translators and filmmakers. The book introduces a wide notion of media accessibility and the concepts of the global version the dubbing effect and subtitling blindness. It presents scientific evidence showing how translation and accessibility can impact the nature and reception of a film by foreign and sensory-impaired audiences often changing the film in a way that filmmakers are not always aware of. The book includes clips from the award-winning film Notes on Blindness on the Routledge Translation Studies Portal testimonies from filmmakers who have adopted this approach and a presentation of the accessible filmmaking workflow and a new professional figure: the director of accessibility and translation. This is an essential resource for advanced students and scholars working in film audiovisual translation and media accessibility as well as for those (accessible) filmmakers who are not only concerned about their original viewers but also about those of the foreign and accessible versions of their films who are often left behind. | Accessible Filmmaking Integrating translation and accessibility into the filmmaking process
