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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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.

• CPU tells the sound card to play
• Sound card plays the file
– Programmer creates the code
6. 13A-6
Hardware/Software Interaction
• Code
– Statements written in a programming
language
– Writing code can be tedious
• Code must be perfect
• Order of steps must be exact
– Writing code is quite exciting
• Problems are solved
• New ideas are formed
8. 13A-8
Hardware/Software Interaction
• Machine code
– Recall that computers think in binary
– Code is translated into machine code
• CPU executes the machine code
– CPUs have a unique machine code
10. 13A-10
Hardware/Software Interaction
• Compiler
– Creates an executable file
• Contents are called object code
– Executable can run on its own
– Each language has its own compiler
– C++ and Java are compiled languages
11. 13A-11
Hardware/Software Interaction
• Interpreter
– Runs program one line at a time
– More flexible than compilers
– Slower than compilers
– Always needed to execute program
– Visual Basic and Perl are interpreted
12. 13A-12
Planning a Computer Program
• Plans
– The steps to solve a problem
– Describe the expected results
– Programming without a plan is difficult
13. 13A-13
Planning Tools
• Pseudo code
– Natural language statements that
resemble code
– Describes what must be done
– Can be written by non programmers
– Programmers develop unique versions
14. 13A-14
How Programs Solve Problems

– Order program statements are executed
– Typically executed in order
– Constructs can change the flow
• Decision statements
• Loops
15. 13A-15
How Programs Solve Problems
• Algorithm
– Set of steps
– Always leads to a solution
– Steps are always the same
– Flowcharts can describe algorithms
• Structured tool for drawing algorithms
– Algorithms appear in all programs
16. 13A-16
Hardware/Software Interaction
• Programming languages
– Simplifies the writing of code
• English is used to describe the binary
– Original code is called source code
– Several hundred languages exist
19. Low Level Language
• A low-level language is a programming
language is very close to writing actual
machine instructions.
• Low-level languages are considered more
difficult to use, however, because they require
a deeper knowledge of the computer's inner
workings.
• Two good examples of low-level languages
are assembly and machine code.
13A-19
20. 1. Machine language
• Programming language that can be directly
understood and obeyed by a machine
(computer) without conversion.
• It is different for each type of CPU
• it is the native binary language (comprised
of only characters: 0 and 1) of the computer
and is difficult to be read and understood by
humans
• Hardware dependent: Could be performed
by only one type of computer with a
particular CPU.
13A-20
21. 2. Assembly Language
• An assembly language is a low-level
programming language for microprocessors
and other programmable devices.
• Assembly language implements a symbolic
representation of the machine code needed to
program a given CPU architecture.
• It is not just a single language, but rather a
group of languages.
• Examples: x86
13A-21
22. Higher level Language
• High-level language is any programming language
that enables development of a program in much
simpler programming context and is generally
independent of the computer's hardware
architecture.
• High-level language has a higher level of abstraction
from the computer, and focuses more on the
programming logic rather than the underlying
hardware components such as memory addressing
and register utilization.
• C/C++ and Java are popular examples of high-level
languages.
13A-22
23. Procedural Languages
• Procedural programming language is
a list or set of instructions telling a
computer what to do step by step and
how to perform from the first code to the
second code.
• Procedural programming languages
include C, Go, Fortran, Pascal, and
BASIC.
13A-23
24. Non-Procedural Languages
– A computer language that does not require
writing traditional programming logic.
– Also known as a "declarative language,"
users concentrate on defining the input
and output rather than the program steps
required in a procedural programming
language
– Many are associated with specific
application packages.
• Query Languages:
• Report Writers:
• Application Generators:13A-24
25. Object-oriented programming (OOP)
• It is a programming language model
organized around objects rather than
"actions" and data.
• Historically, a program has been
viewed as a logical procedure that takes
input data, processes it, and produces
output data.
• Examples: C++/JAVA, Smalltalk
13A-25
Editor's Notes
Teaching tip
Chapters 7 and 8 cover software in great detail.
Teaching tip
Open a folder and demonstrate each file. Show what happens when you open each file type.
Discussion point
Page 501 states “Computers are the reason people purchase computers”. This is an excellent quote. Have students list all the things that they do with computers. When done, point out that the majority of items are handled by a software application.
Teaching tip
Figure 13A.4 on page 502 shows an example of binary code.
Teaching tip
Imagine driving from New York City to Los Angeles without a map, directions, cell phone or street signs. This is programming without a plan.
Teaching tip
Briefly describe a loop and an if statement here.
Teaching tip
Figure 13A.8 on page 505 shows a flowchart.
Teaching tip
It is a good idea to show a few different programming environments. In particular, show the same program (Hello World works well) in several different languages. Point out that the result is the same, but the syntax is very different.
