    Both high-speed Internet access via commingled cables and wireless communications are complex and cutting edge topics in today’s world of ever changing information technology. This Note examines how these issues were addressed recently in Nat’l Cable & Telecomms. Ass’n, Inc. v. Gulf Power Co. (Gulf Power). Part II of this Note provides a review of the Pole Attachments Act, focusing particularly on using the purpose behind the Act to establish the minimum and maximum limitations of its coverage. Part III discusses the factual and procedural history of the Gulf Power case, first addressing the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit’s opinion, and then detailing the U.S. Supreme Court’s reasoning. Part IV analyzes the antitrust implications of the FCC’s competitive approach to regulating the telecommunications and information service technology industries. Additionally, Part IV analyzes the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold FCC regulation of pole attachments providing highly technical services that the commission itself cannot even define. Finally, Part V concludes the Note by arguing that in terms of policy considerations and practical applications, the Supreme Court’s ruling in Gulf Power was not only correct, but it may foreshadow the FCC’s taking a more hands-on approach to regulating the wild, wild west of the information superhighway

    Left hemisphere stroke often results in aphasia characterized by anomia and alexia. Research has shown that treatment focused at the level of the phoneme and phoneme sequences improves anomia (Kendall et al., 2006; Kendall et al., 2008) and phonological/deep alexia (Conway et al., 1998; Kendall et al.,1998; Kendall et al., 2003). This study presents pre and post treatment data for one individual from a group study who presented with mild aphasia and phonological alexia.  Results indicate that multi-modal treatment focused at the level of the phoneme and phoneme sequences can improve naming and reading abilities in an individual post-stroke

    "Technically, I'm the one who came up with the group": The development of a classroom culture of reading and writing in an elementary classroom.

    This dissertation reports on how features of interactions and instruction contributed to an elementary classroom culture of reading and writing that students and their teacher worked together to develop. Positioning theory informed analysis of participants’ interactions as they used texts in social and academic ways. The theory of figured worlds and the sociocultural theory of literacy drove data generation during the eight months spent collecting data in a second grade classroom and during coding and analysis. The research answers the following questions: How do interactions, routines, and rituals in the classroom develop a classroom culture around reading and writing? (a) What kinds of interactions take place between the teacher and the students? (b) What kinds of interactions take place between students? (c) What routines and participation structures become an important part of classroom activities? Findings on the teacher were that her expectations for student interactions fostered storylines of care and respect among students; she used specific terms of address to position students academically and socially; and her expectation for participation led students to engage in talk during literacy instruction that demonstrated consistent agreement with and acceptance of each other’s contributions. That talk did not include purposeful argumentation or challenging of each other’s ideas. Findings about students were that they brought academic talk into social spaces; they brought social talk into academic spaces, and they used language from various sources to engage in simultaneously social and academic positioning. Findings align with existing research on how teachers’ positioning can foster positive student interactions during reading and writing instruction, and how students’ positioning during reading and writing is social and academic. This study also contributes insights about how teachers can engage students in respectful, inclusive participation and dialogue to create space for everyone to discuss texts without silencing. Implications for practice urge teachers to take up forms of talk like those that the teacher in this study used to foster among students care for each person’s worth, and to extend that care as students and the teacher interact in developmentally appropriate critical literacy practices with texts to consider representations of race and gender
