“Uncovering the Discourse of Depression in Hong Kong Online News during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Critical Analysis”
2000 words. Topic: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Depression in Hong Kong Online English News under COVID -19 [i will give you my data set and you have to use antconc 4.2.4 to generate data for Corpus analysis and CDA; 2000 words; no AI used] The study aims to explore how Hong Kong online news media depict depression during the COVID-19 pandemic. By analyzing the language used in online news reports on depression conveyed by media outlets from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2022, the research seeks to uncover the underlying ideologies embedded within the discourse in two English online newspapers over the same pandemic period. This study intends to shed light on how depression is framed and discussed during times of crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, the following research question has been identified in accordance with the objectives of this study: (1) What linguistic patterns being used in news reports about depression in Hong Kong online English newspapers during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 to 2022? (2) How do these linguistic features in news reports about depression in Hong Kong online English newspapers during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 to 2022 reveal or reinforce the underlying social ideologies? [TBC, to fit your analysis content] for your reference: Data for this study was collected from two prominent Hong Kong online English newspapers, namely the South China Morning Post and the Hong Kong Free Press, accessible throughout their website. The first stage of the data collection process involved a keyword search, yielding a total of 278 newspaper articles from the first selection. All included newspaper articles contain two inclusion criteria: (1) the presence of the major search term “depression”, and (2) publication within the two years from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2022. In the second stage, the data filtration process was conducted by eliminating any irrelevant content and news features, leaving only 64 of them to be used as the data. For specificity, all the newspaper articles were filtrated and any of them were found not to primarily contain keywords of (1) “depress”; (2) “COVID”, “pandemic”, “epidemic” or “coronavirus”, and (3) “mental” was excluded. At the same time, newspaper articles with the exclusion criteria were also eliminated: (1) guest-written posts from the News feature of Opinion and Common/Letters; (2) non-local articles covering only China; (3) articles with an entertainment feature like Style magazine; and (4) articles with irrelevant search term usage in the content of this topic like Business, Economy and Law and Crime, as they may only use depression to express a specific crime case, economic situation or person that is not related to the research topic of mental health issue during COVID-19. This yielded a number of 214 news articles excluded, leaving 64 newspapers for inclusion in the database. Among these, 80% were from the South China Morning Post and 20% from the Hong Kong Free Press. At last, before uploading the data into Antconc 4.2.4, all the articles were manually copied and pasted into plain text format (.txt) as a raw document and a text clean-up in order to remove extratextual information such as advertisement and repeated content.

“Reflections on Locke Chinatown: A Journey of Understanding and Collaboration”
Each student submits an essay that reflects on their contribution to the video project. You can use many of the materials researched for your podcast but you need to write this paper yourself.
The paper should have a central theme and includes an abstract of the project, the process of choosing a theme, the research involved, the production itself, evaluation of group working relationships and what you learned about the topic.
How did all this effort contribute to an understanding of the topic in particular and history in general? How could a project such as this be improved for the next class?
Review the work of 2 other group projects and comment on how projects such as this can enhance viewers understanding of Chinese American and Chinese diaspora history.
Resources:
1. learn about locke:
2. description of the project:
“Locke Chinatown: The Intersectionality of Law, Assimilation, & the Rural Life of Chinese Americans” is an exploration of the last rural Chinatown in the United States. Born out of the labor of Chinese workers who transformed swampland into fertile farmland, Locke became a haven where Chinese residents built close-knit relationships amidst discrimination and adversity.
Despite facing harsh working conditions and societal exclusion, the community initially flourished, establishing vital institutions like schools doubling as town halls and gathering places for political organizations. However, the discriminatory policies such as the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and the Alien Land Law of 1913, coupled with forced assimilation efforts, led to the decline of rural Chinese American communities like Locke. Despite its designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1990, Locke’s future remains uncertain, reflecting the broader narrative of assimilation that has shaped the Chinese American experience across the nation.
Through interviews and literary analysis, “Locke Chinatown” delves into the struggles of a community caught between preserving its cultural heritage and navigating the pressures of assimilation in America.
