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
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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

Coonemara National Park
Connemara, situated at the very edge of Europe, on the west coast of Ireland, is one of the most
beautiful, unspoilt places it's possible to find.
From the rugged Twelve Bens mountain range in the north through lake-rich Roundstone Bog to the
golden beaches reaching out into the Atlantic Ocean, you'll know you're in Connemara by the light that
constantly changes the mood and tone of the landscape.
Connemara has long been regarded as the real emerald of Ireland.
This natural terrain and unspoilt environment offers the visitor a wonderland of sights, experiences,
adventure and activities. The people are warm, friendly and extend a hospitality which is the essence of
Ireland.
The beautiful spring flowers, buds on the trees, newborn lambs dancing on the hills and the call of the
cuckoo all make Spring time a very special and magical time in Connemara. This is an ideal time to take
a break as the countryside is totally renewed. On mellow Autumn days, one can enjoy the Connemara
countryside, now clothed in different colours with each passing day. In the evening enjoy lovely warm
turf fires after a day spent walking, cycling, painting, shooting, fishing or golfing.

Traditional unique elements of Ireland
Irish Peat
Peat can be used to create a fabulous fire.The Irish call it ‘’black gold’’. Peat is really just
decomposed vegetation which has become a soil like substance. Over in Ireland ,peat is called
‘’turf ‘and has been used as a source of energy and heat. A great alternative to timber. Peat
has very little smoke and a wonderful aroma when burnt ,as well as being easy to store and
fuel efficient.
Irish dancing
Irish step dancing, , is notable for its rapid leg and foot movements, body and arms being kept largely
stationary. The solo stepdance is generally characterised by a controlled and rigid upper body, straight
arms and back, and quick, precise movements of feet and legs.. Hard shoes are often called heavy
shoes or jig shoes. They are used to create the beautiful rhythmical percussions. They are made of
black leather with fiberglass heels and taps on the tips of the shoes with a leather strap across the top
of the foot.
Irish football: HURLING
Hurling Irish team game of ancient Gaelic and Irish origin. The game has prehistoric, and has been
played for 3,000 years.
The objective of the game is for players to use a wooden stick called a hurley to hit a small ball called
a sliotar. The sliotar can be caught in the hand and carried for not more than four steps, struck in the air,
12. 4nd Newsletter COOL GOAL 2015-2018
3ST Learning Teaching – 3st Transnational Meeting 16-22 October 2016
or struck on the ground with the hurley. It can be kicked or slapped with an open hand (the hand pass)
for short-range passing. A player who wants to carry the ball for more than four steps has to bounce or
balance the sliotar on the end of the stick and the ball can only be handled twice while in his
possession.
Hurling is played throughout the world, and is popular among members of the Irish diaspora in North
America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Argentina, and South Korea. In many parts
of Ireland, however, hurling is a fixture of life.[1] It has featured regularly in art forms such as film, music
and literature..
The trees are in their autumn beauty,
The woodland paths are dry,
Under the October twilight the water
Mirrors a still sky;
Upon the brimming water among the stones
Are nine-and-fifty swans
