Digital Protest and Activism in Public Education : Reactions to Neoliberal Restructuring in Israel
Digital protest and activism in reaction to the consequences of neoliberalism in public education have become a global phenomenon in the second decade of the 21st century, emerging in countries such as the US, UK, France, and Israel.Teachers, parents, and other stakeholders in education are increasingly using digital media in their protest and activism efforts, yet these efforts have hardly been investigated to date.This book addresses this gap and employs an empirical exploration of the way in which Internet-based protest activity concerning public education issues is constructed, mobilised, and carried out.In doing so it provides key insights for the study of educational politics in the digital age.It shows how digital media is used by teachers and parents to create a bottom-up politics, spanning a common divide in the study of education politics between the macro (policymaking) and the micro (school) levels.The authors propose a novel taxonomy of uses of social media by digital activists, and argue that Internet-based social mobilisations develop different patterns of use of social media, based on the lived experience of their members and potential supporters.Finally, the book situates the rise of digital activism in education within the neoliberal restructuring of national education systems and the rise of neoliberal discourse of competition, budget discipline, and measurable achievements.The authors highlight three cases of Internet-based mobilisations in Israel, in which teachers and parents successfully affected public education policy. By providing a case-study driven analysis of digital protest and activism in education, this book will prove an invaluable text for researchers, leaders and practitioners in the field of education policy and comparative education.

How can the light sensor (photodiode) be read out analog-digital?
The light sensor (photodiode) can be read out analog-digital by using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The photodiode generates a current or voltage signal in response to the incident light, which is then converted into a digital value by the ADC. The ADC samples the analog signal at regular intervals and quantizes it into discrete digital values, which can then be processed and analyzed by a microcontroller or computer. This digital output can be used to measure the intensity of the light and make decisions or trigger actions based on the light level.

What is the light sensor and what is the rain sensor?
A light sensor is a device that detects the presence or absence of light. It measures the intensity of light in its surroundings and can be used to automatically adjust lighting levels in response to changing light conditions. On the other hand, a rain sensor is a device that detects the presence of rain or moisture. It is commonly used in automated irrigation systems to prevent watering when it is raining, conserving water and preventing overwatering of plants.

Is the sensor of my Nikon D5100 a full-frame sensor?
No, the sensor of the Nikon D5100 is not a full-frame sensor. It is an APS-C sized sensor, which is smaller than a full-frame sensor. This means that the field of view captured by the sensor is narrower compared to a full-frame sensor, resulting in a crop factor of approximately 1.5x for Nikon DX format cameras like the D5100.

Anonymity
Formally launched in 2014, ALA’s Center for the Future of Libraries works to identify emerging trends relevant to libraries and the communities they serve, promote futuring and innovation techniques to help librarians and library professionals shape their future, and build connections with experts and innovative thinkers to help libraries address emerging issues.The first volume in a new series presented in partnership with the Center, Anonymity explores the roles and ramifications of this hallmark of technology.In the virtual realm, anonymity means that such bedrock values of librarianship as privacy, free speech, and intellectual freedom coexist uneasily with the proliferation of fake news, sexist and racist sentiments, and repugnant ideologies.As trusted guardians of knowledge, libraries and librarians can fill a growing need for reputable information and open dialog.Macrina, founder and director of the Library Freedom Project and a core contributor to the Tor Project, along with co-author Cooper of The Intercept, discuss apps (Whisper, Secret) and forums (Reddit) that promote anonymity as a central feature, even as so-called true anonymity remains elusive because of pervasive user data tracking.They also examine how anonymous content has become valuable fodder for both news organizations and clickbait websites.Will the rise of anonymity and the vulnerabilities it exposes, especially for governments and businesses, lead to a movement against it? Or have our society and its technology passed the point of no return?Bringing issues and viewpoints from outside the profession into the conversation, this book will encourage libraries to think about anonymity and what it means for the future of our institutions.

Environmental Activism and the Media : The Politics of Protest
For more than 40 years politicians, activists, advocates, and individuals have been seeking ways to solve the problem of climate change.Governments and the United Nations have taken an economic path, while others seek solutions in the equality of climate justice.Taking the step from green consumer to the streets at climate summits and protest camps, as well as taking direct action recasts activists as everything from tree huggers, to domestic extremists, to ecoterrorists.Political policing and new legislation increasingly criminalizes environmental activism, supported by media reporting that recasts environmental activism as actions to be feared. Why this has happened and how activists have learned to circumvent the media’s recasting is the story of Environmental Activisim and the Media: The Politics of Protest.Through media movements to persuade the moveable middle, high court challenges, and gatekeeping, activists have found ways to challenge media and political discourse. This book identifies four key areas to tie together diverse sets of green governmentality, traditional media discourse, and activism: (1) environmental governance and green governmentality; (2) historical media discourse; (3) alternative communication infrastructures; and (4) local to the global.Using data from 50 interviews, archival research, and non-participatory observation from environmental activists from the UK, USA, and Australia, this text will show why protest is important in democratic political participation. From activists to slacktivists, Environmental Activism and the Media: The Politics of Protest is for those with an interest in cultural, social, and political studies; democratic processes; climate and social justice; governmentality; and/or the study of environmental politics, human geography, communication, and sustainability.

Which sensor is this?
This is a photoelectric sensor. It uses a light emitter and a receiver to detect the presence or absence of an object. When the emitted light is interrupted by an object, the sensor detects the change and triggers a response, such as turning on a light or stopping a conveyor belt. Photoelectric sensors are commonly used in industrial automation, packaging, and material handling applications.

Inductive or Hall sensor?
The choice between an inductive sensor and a Hall sensor depends on the specific application and requirements. Inductive sensors are typically used for non-contact detection of metallic objects and are suitable for harsh industrial environments due to their robustness. On the other hand, Hall sensors are used for detecting the presence of magnetic fields and are often used in applications such as position sensing and speed detection. Ultimately, the decision between the two sensors should be based on the specific needs of the application, including the type of target object and the environmental conditions.

What is the difference between a distance sensor and a displacement sensor?
A distance sensor measures the distance between the sensor and an object, providing a continuous reading of the distance. On the other hand, a displacement sensor measures the change in position of an object from a reference point, providing a reading of the displacement from the initial position. In summary, while a distance sensor provides the current distance to an object, a displacement sensor measures the change in position from a starting point.
