The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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

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.

1) Yellow Munsell- I will use this colour for the subheading (text). I will
also use this colour for the description on the ‘Front Cover’ of my
magazine.

my 'Double Page Spread' of my magazine. This colour represents anger
so I could use this colour for the villains outfit.

my 'Double Page Spread' of my product. I will use this colour for the
‘Front Cover’ background of my ‘Film Magazine’. This colour represents
inspiration and I want the audience to inspire the product that I have
been making.
4) May Green- I will ensure that I'll be using this colour for the 'Front

existing products of there magazines (background)- Empire/Total Film.
5) Raisin Black – I will add this colour to my product, it will be used for the

1) Bold text- This font will be used for the header of my
product. I would like to use bold text because it makes
the header clear to see for the ‘Front Cover’ of my
product.
2) Fancy text- This font will be used for the double page
spread of my ‘Film Magazine’. I will use this font for the
description of my product because I have done some
primary research and I have looked at what type of fonts
they use in there film magazines. I think the fancy font
stands out which should interests the audience.
3) Size of text- I will use this size for the header and the
subheading of my ‘Film Magazine’. I would like to use
this size of the text because I think it would be clear to
see for the audience. I like this size of the text because it
makes it more appealing to read for the audience.
4) Colour text for the header- I will use this colour for the
header and subheading. I would like to use this primary
colour because I think it would appeal to my audiences
interest.
5) Colour text for the description- I will use this colour for
the description on the double page spread of my ‘Film
Magazine’. The yellow colour will make it interesting to
see within my product. The audience would be able to
see the yellow text, I will make the text a bit darker so
that the audience can see the text because the
background of my product will have a dark red/black
background. The yellow and black are contrasting
colours that will best fit my product.
6. Mood Board- (5 images)

1) Barcode: This is important because this is what they use when people want to
buy a product. I will be adding this to the ‘Front Cover’ of my product.
2) Image: I will be adding multiples images to the ‘Front Cover’, for the ‘Double
Page Spread’ I will be adding the main image and I will be talking about it, seeing
as it is the main topic of my ‘Film Magazine’.
3) Upcoming movies/series: I will be talking about upcoming
movies/series to be released. I would be adding this to the ‘Front Cover’ of my
‘Film Magazine’. I think this would interest the audience by how there would be so
much detail with the upcoming films to be released.
4) Winning product for the front cover of my magazine. I
think this would be suitable for the audience If I include winning products because
it would interest the audience to patriciate into something that they could win.
5) Logo for the front cover of my magazine. Why? Also,
consider copyright... I think this would be interesting if I include symbols
of superheroes on the front cover of my product. The audience would be interested
and they would know who the main character will be about for the ‘Double Page
Spread’ of my product.
