Ilse Langner's Klytämnestra marks a change in revisions of Clytemnestra, wife of Agamemnon. While authors have traditionally demonized the figure as a murderer or discounted her as a mother in mourning, feminist authors have reclaimed Clytemnestra in order to clear her name. Langner belongs to this tradition, but at the same time breaks free of it. Instead of justifying Clytemnestra's murder of Agamemnon, Langner focuses on the queen's deeds during her reign in Mycene, where she has created an alternative society that denies the primacy of patriarchy and war. This article examines Langner's feminist revision of Clytemnestra. (CCM)

Oregon Graduate Institute reports a laboratory experiment that
compared three different communications modalities (face‐to‐face,
audio‐only, and audio and video) across two co‐operative tasks, which
can be characterized as visual and non‐visual. In each task,
effectiveness varied as a significant function of modality. However, the
directions of these functions were opposite. That is, for the visual
task conversants were more effective in the face‐to‐face and audio and
video modalities than in the audio‐only modality; for the non‐visual
task, conversants were more effective in the audio‐only modality than in
the face‐to‐face modality. Additional analysis of the non‐visual tasks
suggests that modality affects the extent to which asymmetry of
knowledge results in asymmetry of influence between conversants.

"This bestselling text has been relied upon by thousands of graduate students to provide guidance on the different qualitative research genres, building a conceptual framework, and preparing the proposal. Students have appreciated the clarity of the content and writing, the useful examples, tools, and vignettes, and the extensive guide to recommended reading at the end of each chapter. Designing Qualitative Research, Seventh Edition has been updated within the contexts of 2020 during which it was written. Catherine Marshall, Gretchen B. Rossman and new co-author Gerardo L. Blanco have added more on the history and new emerging genres of qualitative inquiry, as well as providing a more sustained and deeper focus on social media and other digital applications in conducting qualitative research. They have added application activities throughout the chapters to provide opportunities for students to try out ideas. The new edition's timely vignettes illustrate the methodological challenges posed by the intellectual, ethical, political, and technological advances affecting society and, hence, those who choose to rely on qualitative research design for inquiry into these challenges. An accompanying Instructor website for the book includes PowerPoint slides and suggestions for class activities"--
