It's not me, it's you: Examining the print media's approach to 'Europe' in Brexit Britain
Despite declining sales, the UK print media remains a powerful actor in British political debate. In recent times, nowhere has this seemed more evident than in the run-up to the UK referendum on European Union membership, during which a predominantly Eurosceptic press lent its backing to an ultimately victorious Leave campaign. Through qualitative analysis of reports by two pro-Remain and two Leave-supporting newspapers, during pre- and post-referendum periods, this chapter scrutinises not only the extent of the print media’s influence over the broader discourse about ‘Europe’, but also what this signifies for meaningful democratic debate on emotive but highly complex issues such as Brexit. Crucially, the research establishes three pertinent findings. First, though the Leave press was extremely vocal during the referendum campaign, its influence stems from a far longer-term shaping of the UK’s EU-related debates. Second, the significant role played by newspapers in setting the parameters of wider dialogue about the EU raises critical questions as to whether sufficient checks and balances are operating across the democratic landscape to ensure a diversity of discussion. Third, while one might have expected the Leave vote to create the elbow room for all quarters of the British press to examine the Brexit process with rigour, the Eurosceptic press has instead chosen further to entrench the ‘us versus them’ narrative that has always dominated its coverage of Europe. This arguably has repercussions beyond Brexit, including the issue of whether stepping back from Europe also means distancing the UK from the separate European Convention on Human Rights

Big Data, Big Libraries, Big Problems?: the 2014 LibTech Anti-talk?
The desire to create automatons is a familiar theme in human history, and during the age of the Enlightenment mechanical automatons became not only an “emblem of the cosmos”, but a symbol of man’s confidence that he would unlock nature’s greatest mysteries and fully harness her power. And yet only a century later, automatons had begun to represent human repression and servitude, a theme later picked up by writers of science fiction. Man’s confidence undeterred, the endgame of the modern scientific and technological mindset, or MSTM, seems to be increasingly coming into view with the rise of “information technology” in general and “Big data” in particular. Along with those who wield them, these can be seen as functioning together as a “mechanical muse” of sorts – surprisingly alluring – and, like a physical automaton can serve as a symbol – a microcosm – of what the MSTM sees (at the very least in practice) as the cosmic machine, our “final frontier”. And yet, individuals who unreflectively participate in these things – giving themselves over to them and seeking the powers afforded by the technology apart from technology’s rightful purposes – in fact yield to the same pragmatism and reductionism those wielding them are captive to. Thus, they ultimately nullify themselves philosophically, politically, and economically – their value increasingly being only the data concerning their persons, and its perceived usefulness. Likewise libraries, the time-honored place of, and symbol for, the intellectual flowering of the individual, will, insofar as they spurn the classical liberal arts (with the idea that things are intrinsically good, and in the case of humans, special as well) in favor of the alluring embrace of MSTM-driven “information technology” and Big data - unwittingly contribute to their irrelevance and demise as they find themselves increasingly less needed, valued, wanted. Likewise for the liberal arts as a whole, and in fact history itself, if the acid of a “science” untethered from what is, in fact, good (intrinsically), continues to gain strengt
Student morningness-eveningness type and performance:does class timing matter?
Circadian rhythms have often been linked to people’s performance outcomes, although this link has not been examined within the context of University students. We therefore sought to test whether students’ perceptions of their morning-evening (ME) type had an influence on their performance on modules. We tested this hypothesis using students from a number of modules at two UK Universities. Results indicated that, contrary to our hypothesis, the further the discrepancy between a student’s ME type and the teaching time of the class, the better the student’s performance. These results have implications for teaching as student ME type could be taken into account for timetabling especially if modules need to be taught multiple times. We also provide implications for those seeking to measure ME, as our results are consistent with a 5-item ME scale, a 3-item ME scale, and a single-item ME scale
