This documentary formed part of the South African National Science Week from 2-8 August 2021.
In commemoration of women’s day held annually on 9 August and women’s month observed yearly in August, ASSAf’s Phyllis Kalele had a discussion with Prof. Helen Rees to talk about her life’s journey from childhood to being a global renowned public health scientist and her views on women and their role in science. Prof. Rees was elected and inaugurated as a Member of the Academy of Science of South Africa in October 2006. Her election to membership of the country’s national science academy is confirmation that she has been honoured and recognized as one of the most outstanding and celebrated scholars contributing to scholarly activities in her field of expertise in this country to a significant extent. In addition, Prof. Rees is featured in the ASSAf’s first edition of the Legends of South African Science, a book that introduces Academy Members who rank among the top achievers in the country and that provides a unique collective perspective on contributions by South African scientists and scholars.South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement (SAASTA
And You, Helen
'And You, Helen' was a collaborative project between Charlotte Hodes and poet and researcher Deryn Rees-Jones, (Professor of Poetry, University of Liverpool) commissioned by and for the Ledbury Poetry Festival, supported by Arts Council England and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. The theme of the project was Edward Thomas’s poem ‘And You, Helen’ written a year to the day before he died in World War 1 in 1917, to his wife Helen. This provided a starting point for Rees-Jones’ poetic re-imagining of Helen. Hodes in turn responded to Rees-Jones' 12 part poem in a series of new papercuts, applying her drawing and collage methodology to create an animation made in collaboration with Kristina Pulejkova (Central Saint Martins MA graduate). This was screened live alongside two performances of the poem, read by actor Juliet Stevenson at Ledbury Poetry Festival. One of the performances included a panel discussion about the collaboration with a cabinet display of the papercuts and preparatory drawings. The poem and essay by Rees-Jones accompanied by the papercuts were published by Seren in two formats (hardback and deluxe limited editions: ISBN 978-1-78172-172-8 & ISBN 978-1-78172-218-3). A second version of the animation was produced with the poem spoken by Rees-Jones for subsequent screenings. Papercuts were displayed alongside the book and film at jaggedart, London (3 - 24 December 2014) and two paper cuts were on loaned at the Edward Thomas Study Centre. Petersfield, 2017. The project was presented at the 2017 conference 'Edward Thomas', Artois University, France with a group of prints from the papercuts displayed in their library exhibition
Nick Dynan, Lou Jones, Nichole Sobecki, and Helen Rees discuss, Worth a Thousand Words at Ford Hall Forum, video recording, 4/26/2012
Photographs are among the most compelling media for true stories across the globe, allowing viewers to feel as if we are right there in the action. Photojournalists must not only find shots and visually translate the emotions, but also address reporting ethics and their own biases behind the lens. On top of it all, they grapple with their effect on the subject itself while capturing the moment. Nick Dynan, Senior Web Coordinator for Global Post; Lou Jones, legendary photographer and board member of the Photographic Resource Center; and Nichole Sobecki, Nairobi-based photojournalist and former director of The Tufts University Institute for Global Leadership\u27s EXPOSURE program, join Ford Hall Forum Vice President Helen Rees to focus on the fascinating finer points of photojournalism.https://dc.suffolk.edu/fhf-av/1120/thumbnail.jp

READING AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF HELEN KELLER’S THE STORY OF MY LIFE
Membaca autobiografi adalah membaca suatu peristiwa, memori dan kenangan yang dituliskan oleh pengarang tentang dirinya sendiri. Persitiwa- peristiwa tersebut lebih banyak mengabarkan tentang sebuah kebenaran subjektif daripada fakta yang sebenarnya. Itu dikarenakan pengarang sebagai subjek yang membaca masa lalunya menjadi tokoh utama dalam autobiografi. Hal ini dapat dikaji dan dibuktikan melalui beberapa aspek di dalam autobiografi.
Ruang lingkup dari tulisan ini adalah bagaimana narrator dalam menarasikan cerita dapat membangun wacana dan berbicara langsung dengan narratee. Pengalaman- pengalaman yang diceritakan oleh narrator, identitas yang ditampilkan dan juga peran editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi. Adapun tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mengimplementasikan teori Reading Autobiography yang digunakan untuk menganalisis The Story of My Life yang merupakan autobiografi dari Helen Keller.
Metode yang digunakan dalam tulisan ini adalah metode penelitian kepustakaan dan metode pendekatan teori membaca autobiografi. Metode yang pertama digunakan untuk mengumpul data dan informasi dari sumber-sumber kepustakaan yang mendukung pembahasan. Metode yang kedua digunakan sebagai acuan utama dalam menganalisis aspek yang dominan dalam autobiografi.
Hasil dari analisis menunjukkan bahwa teknik penceritaan yang digunakan oleh pengarang sangat mengesankan, baik dalam segi penceritaan “aku”, ideologi maupun konsep yang dimiliki banyak memproyeksikan tokoh sebagai tokoh yang sempurna secara fisik. Begitu juga pengalaman yang dialami tokoh sengaja dipilihkan pengalaman yang istimewa
Selain itu, identitas yang ditampilkan oleh pengarang bertujuan mengkonstruksikan kesan dirinya seabagai pribadi yang baik kepada pembaca. Di samping itu, adanya peran John Macy sebagai editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi adalah untuk kepentingan sosial. Hal ini dikarenakan John Macy membantu memproyeksikan Helen Keller sebagai tokoh utama yang hampir sempurna walau dengan keterbatasan fisik. Dia juga mampu membantu Helen dalam mengklarifikasi isu negatif yang berkembang pada masa itu
Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld, PhD, Long-Term Care Educator and Author
Today’s guest is Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld. Mary Helen is an associate professor at Towson University in the Department of Health Sciences. Mary Helen is the author of one of the leading textbooks in the field of long-term care, Dimensions of Long-Term Care: An Introduction, and is a recognized leader in long-term care education nationally. In this podcast I talk with Mary Helen about her journey from an early interest in political science and international affairs to discovering the nascent field of health economics in the 80’s, and her transition to an interest in long-term care as a result of having to care for both her father and father-in-law when they suffered from debilitating terminal illnesses. Mary Helen makes a passionate case for long-term care, pointing out the economic opportunities for entrepreneurs, as well as young people looking for a meaningful and well compensated career. I hope you enjoy listening to Mary Helen’s story, and if you find it valuable, won’t you leave us feedback on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify, or wherever you may be accessing this recording. It helps other people discover us. Thanks for listening, and here is Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld
