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

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.
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.
Thinking of getting a dog? Be aware that breeds like Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds can be loyal and dangerous. Proper training and socialization are crucial to preventing aggressive behaviors. Ensure safety by understanding their needs and always supervising interactions. Stay safe, and enjoy your furry friends!

9. Honeybee leaving
imbedded stinger
Honey bees are the only hymenoptera
with a strongly barbed sting. When a
honey bee stings a person, it cannot
pull the barbed stinger back out. The
stinger should be removed as quickly
as possible; a delay of a few seconds
leads to more venom being injected.

12. Chigger Bites
After crawling onto their hosts, they
inject digestive enzymes into the skin
that break down skin cells. They do not
actually “bite”, but instead form a hole
in the skin called a stylostome, and
chew up tiny parts of the inner skin,
thus causing severe irritation and
swelling.

14. Bark Scorpion
Musides (Wikimedia Commons)
The Arizona bark scorpion (Centruroides
sculpturatus) is a small light brown scorpion
common to the southwest United States and
Northern Mexico. It is the most venomous
scorpion in North America, and its venom
can cause severe pain in adult humans.
Temporary dysfunction in the area stung is
common; e.g. a hand or possibly arm can be
immobilized or experience convulsions. It
also may cause the loss of breath for a short
period of time. Due to the extreme pain
induced, many victims describe sensations of
electrical jolts after envenomation.

15. Deathstalker
The deathstalker (Leiurus quinquestriatus) can be found in desert and
scrubland habitats ranging from North Africa through to the Middle East. It is
regarded as a highly dangerous species because its venom is a powerful
mixture of neurotoxins, with a low lethal dose.

19. Types of Reactions to Insect Stings
• Local allergic (most common)
• Exaggerated local reaction (entire limb may swell)
• Generalized allergic → anaphylaxis
• Toxic reaction (usually from at least 50 to several
hundred stings) : mostly GI symptoms (nausea,
vomiting, weakness)
• Delayed : resembles serum sickness
• Local infection : more common from yellow
jacket stings than from other species
• Psychiatric reactions
19
21. Fire Ant Stings
The venom of fire ants is composed of
alkaloids derived from piperidine. The sting
swells into a bump, which can cause much
pain and irritation. The bump often forms into
a white pustule, which can become infected if
scratched, but if left alone will usually flatten
within a few days.

23. Dangerous Local Reactions from
Insect Stings
• Direct eyeball sting : may cause atrophy
of iris, abscess of lens, perforation of
globe
• Pharyngeal sting : local edema may
cause airway compromise
23
24. Treatment of Local Reactions
• Remove imbedded stinger (honeybees) by
scraping ; not by squeezing (because this
may inject more venom)
• Ice
• Antihistamines
• Tetanus prophylaxis
• Topical steroid cream (optional and
questionably effective)
24
25. Treatment of Anaphylactic (Severe)
Reactions to Insect Stings
Airway management : high flow O2
• IV access : lactated ringers (LR) bolus if hypotensive
• SQ epinephrine 0.01 mg / kg (0.3 mg in adults) ; IV
epinephrine 0.1 mg if severe shock
• IV diphenhydramine 1 mg / kg (50 mg in adults)
• IV steroids (100 to 250 mg hydrocortisone or
methylprednisolone, etc.)
• Consider IV dopamine or epinephrine drip if
hypotensive despite fluids
• Inhaled beta aerosol if wheezing (metaproterenol 0.3
25
cc or albuterol 2.5 cc in 3 cc NS)
26. Treatment of Severe Allergic
Reactions (cont.)
• Remove stinger
• Ice to sting site
• Tetanus prophylaxis
• Observe at least 4 to 6 hours
• Discharge on at least 3 day course of
diphenhydramine and 3 to 7 days course of steroids
(weaning dose is optional)
• Referral for desensitization to an allergist
• Consider discharge prescription for epinephrine
injection (“Epi-Pen” or “Ana-Kit”)

•
-- delivered as 0.3 ml to a locking point, with the
ability to deliver a second identical dose if necessary
Chlorpheniramine: 2 mg chewable tablets (#4) 30
31. Infections from Insect Stings
• No good studies on infection incidence from
different species
• Infections that do occur are usually due to Strep
• Best rules to follow :
• If sting site red & swollen but mainly pruritic :
treat with PO antihistamines
• If sting site red & swollen but mainly painful :
treat with PO antibiotics
• If sting site red & swollen & pruritic & painful :
treat with both antibiotics & antihistamines
31
33. Brown Recluse Spider Bites
• Often misdiagnosed
• Usually just cause local tissue necrosis → slowly
healing ulcer
• May have systemic symptoms : fever, chills, malaise,
weakness, nausea, emesis, rash : rarely hemolytic
anemia, thrombocytopenia
Rx : Consider local excision ; routine wound care (oral
antibiotics not helpful).
Dapsone (proposed in past as Rx) never actually
shown to be effective.
33
41. Black Widow Spider Bites (cont.)
Rx :
• IV fluids if hypotensive
• Narcotics IV
• IV calcium gluconate (10 ml of 10% solution over 5
minutes)
• Methocarbamol (Robaxin) 1 gram IV over 5 minutes
(optional and less effective)
• Tetanus immunization
• Antivenin : only very rarely indicted for an extremely
compromised patient. (Use one vial, reconstitute and
dilute in 100 to 250 cc of D5W and give over ½ to 1
41
hour IV ; similar to use of snake antivenin)
42. Other Dangerous Spiders
Funnel back spiders from Australia
• Bites can be fatal
• Australian antivenin used
Tarantulas
• Usually just cause local tissue reactions
Note that all spiders can inject toxins, but most
have jaws too small to penetrate effectively into
human skin
42
44. Spider Bite Infections
• As for insects, no good studies reported on
infection incidence rates
• Infections are uncommon with black widow
bites
• Infections after brown recluse bites are
usually due to secondary infection (Staph
or Strep) after local tissue necrosis
44
45. Insect Stings and Spider Bites
Summary
• Assess likely species causing the bite or
sting
• Observe patient for allergic or progressive
symptoms and signs if short time frame
from time of injury
• Treat systemic allergic reactions
aggressively and assure proper follow-up
care
