Cultural studies is a field of theoretically, politically, and empirically engaged cultural analysis that concentrates upon the political dynamics of contemporary culture, its historical foundations, defining traits, conflicts, and contingencies.
Cultural studies views cultures not as fixed, bounded, stable, and discrete entities, but rather as constantly interacting and changing sets of practices and processes.

What lies over the horizon? Scenarios to the Future of Social Sciences in the...Shermon Cruz
The year was 2040 when the social sciences transformed into something really unrecognizable.
The social science catalogue now includes courses like coding and decoding, myth and magic, food futures, reality engineering, micropolitics, macrohistory and macrofutures, decolonization, re-creativity and re-invention, foresight studies, big history and galaxies, robotics and space sciences, spirituality and social transformations, etc. This was the tip of the iceberg. The climate of uncertainty and the explosive success of digital technology not to mention some game-changing events like the Occupy Wall Street, the discovery of the Higgs-boson like particle, the emergence of culture as driver of new economic growth among others continue to influence our ways of knowing and re-perceiving the social sciences.
Recently, many academics have speculated about the future of the social sciences. The shape of things to come will certainly come in a digitized content and more according to experts. This paper explored some scenarios on the futures of the social sciences. It tracked emerging developments and explored the possible, plausible, and preferred social science scenarios in 2040. It employed the futures triangle and archetypal scenario (business as usual, best case, worst case, outliers) methods developed by Sohail Inayatullah and Peter Schwartz respectively.The purpose of this paper is to anticipate events and leverage the changes shaping the future of the social sciences.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. INTRODUCTION
It 's A midday!
What’s an amount of qualitative work you have done
today?
Do you think you are having a qualitative day!
Number of work you have done.
Competition- Quality of the work matters not the quantity
sports- if there is a tough fight betweens opponents, quality of play metters the result
becomes secondary.
But today we are racing against time. its the result of Technoculture.
Advancement of technology, increased the speed of working.
Humans need to work with the increased speed or else they will be thrown out of the world.
4. Paul Virilio’s Dromology
Paul Virilio was a French cultural theorist , urbanist, architect and aesthetic philosopher.
He is best known for his writings about technology as it has developed in relation to
speed and power, (Chautard et al. )
Dromos is an Ancient Greek noun for race or racetrack, which Virilio applied the activity
of racing (Virilio)
Dromology- Logic of speed
Reading of late 20th century Cyberculture; advent of more technology and media, our
lives are under constant surveillance
Socio- political institutions need of speed rather than commerce.
new problems resulting from the fact that the development of industrial capitalism has
reached the stage in which wealth and power in society have been interconnected with
ever increasing speed.(Hauer)
5. New information and communication technology
weapons for a Pure war.
Speed and technology replaces democratic
participation. Farm Bills 2021, CAA 2019
Local time to Global time- Globalitarianism
( Totalitarianism of totalitarianism)
Speed and Technology replacing democratic
participation. (Nayar)
Speeding up is a result of technology
Virilio’s theory shows the far-reaching extent to which the speed conquered all and
everything over the centuries: transportation and production, peace and war, men and
women, urban and rural areas, work and leisure time, arts and commerce. (Virilio)
6. Virilio emphasizes that speed is not a phenomenon, but a relation between phenomena.
The difference between contemporary society and societies of the past consists in the
fact that earlier speed used to be mainly connected with transport, now it concerns relations
within information. (Hauer)
Expansion of virtual real results into loss of trust in “eye reality” (Hauer)
Baudrillard gives us idea of Simulacrum. Virtual games, Horror House, 9D cinemas etc
Scarcity of food speeding up with greenhouse effect and
fertilizers, quality reduced.
technoculture is giving us speed but with risk of our own.
growth of risk society as talked by Ulrich Beck in his work
Technoculture and Risk.
7. Counter Culture- Slow movement Culture
"It is a cultural revolution against the notion that faster is always better. The Slow
philosophy is not about doing everything at a snail’s pace. It's about seeking to do
everything at the right speed. Savoring the hours and minutes rather than just counting
them. Doing everything as well as possible, instead of as fast as possible. It’s about
quality over quantity in everything from work to food to parenting." (Honore)
Don’t live life as if you’re afraid of being late to your own funeral”
-Geir Berthelsen, Founder The world Institute of slowness
Carlo Petrini, an Italian journalist, launched the Slow Food movement in 1986 as a protest
against all that is mass-produced and unethical in food. (“Our history - About us”)
Time poverty a modern malaise. (Faber)
8. Slow education; Slow parenting; Slow TV; Slow lifestyle; Slow travelling. (Roy)
Claxton is of the opinion that “we have developed an inner psychology of speed, of
saving time and maximizing efficiency, which is getting stronger by the day.” (Claxton)
In 1982, Larry Dossey, an American physician, coined the term “time-sickness” to
explain the obsessive concern we have about time, which we think is always fleeting;
there isn’t enough of it. (Dossey)
“how we try to make things better, what do we do? we do? No, we speed them up, don't
we?(Honore)
Why it's hard to slow down?
speed is fun; keep our head busy with distractions; cultural taboo of being called ‘lazy’.
(Honore)
9. Desire for connectedness, quality of food and living, healthy body healthy mind.
Slow movement in India!
Ayurveda- It talks about balance and stability of the body and the mind.(Lad)
10. CONCLUSION
Slow life pulls in the opposite direction to the dominant Western principle of market expansion
(faster, cheaper, more), and it remains to be seen whether the two can co-exist.
Medicine for increasingly atomised urban living. But many of its principles – patience, quality
over quantity, ethical responsibility – are just common sense, perhaps forgotten in the
breakneck passage of life. But none of this is new information.
Have we forgotten the tortoise and the hare?
