History Camp 2015 - Decoding and Applying Common Core for Public Historians: ...Mark Gardner
In this session, Western Rhode Island Civic Historical Society archivist and American History teacher Mark Kenneth Gardner (@HistoryGardner) will walk everyone through several hands-on exercises designed to familiarize the museum and historical society folks with the vernacular of the Common Core, in particular close reading, lenses, and response to informational text. Using primary source materials not too different than what many public history institutions already have in great abundance, we will learn how “speak the language” and better understand how we can connect to what high school teachers and students are doing in the classrooms. Mark is the archivist at the Western Rhode Island Civic Historical Society (headquartered at the Paine House Museum in Coventry RI) and serves on the board of directors at the Pettaquamscutt Historical Society in Kingston, RI. He also teaches US History and AP US Government and Politics and is state co-coordinator for Rhode Island Model Legislature. He has been teaching high school social studies and history since 1988.

Covid-19, commonly known as Coronavirus, is a single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus. It is a known fact that RNA-duplex and RNA-DNA duplex is thermodynamically more stable than ds-DNA which in turn is more stable than ss-RNA i.e. it requires more harsh conditions (Like higher temperature) to denature ds-RNA than ds-DNA. So, injecting a modified anti-sense RNA would effectively arrest RNA proliferation by forming a near-neutral duplex (i.e. this Duplex can't be proofread stopping the retrosynthesis) in a Corona-affected patient, which is the key idea of my project.

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.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
2. Crucial Points
• When reading, focus not only on WHAT is
being said but also HOW it is being said.
• All communication is directed towards, and
therefore governed by, the intended audience.
• Texts vary in their purpose: they can be
argumentative, persuasive, descriptive,
historical, fictive, hypothetical, etc. or a
mixture of these. The purpose determines
how a text is organized.
3. Step 1 - Preview
• Preview
– Look at the title, the blurb, section
headings, illustrations (if any)
– Activate pre-knowledge on the subject
4.
5. Step 2 - Skimming
Skimming helps to gather an overall idea of the
passage and makes it familiar
• Skim the passage: Run your eye through the
passage without stopping anywhere
– Read the first and last lines of each
paragraph (try to find the main idea in
each paragraph)
– Detect key words (repeated frequently)
for the passage
– Ask yourself: Is there an argument?
6. Practice Skimming
A controversial new book about the Princess of
Wales claims she attempted suicide on several
occasions over the last decade, and portrays her
as a deeply depressed and unstable character.
Author Andrew Morton insists he has reliable
sources for the allegations, which appear in
Diana: Her True Story. Buckingham Palace would
not comment on any specific claims, and said
Princess Diana did not co-operate with the
biography in any way whatsoever.
7. Step 3 – Close Reading
• Read the entire text carefully and while reading -
• Mark various parts of the text such as
– Introduction (of an idea or concept)
– Argument
– Examples
– Conclusion
–Description
to formulate an outline (flow of ideas) of the passage
• Examine why the text is divided into paragraphs or
subsections
• Underline words or phrases you do not understand
• Determine the tone and purpose of the passage by asking
yourself: is the author arguing, describing, explaining,
historicizing etc.?
8. Answer the following questions
• Part I
1. The author opens her/his text with a question. What purpose does that serve?
2. From the opening page, can you estimate what the writer’s standpoint is, and who
her/his intended audience is?
3. From the first page, point out instances where the author builds a conversational
relationship with her/his audience and how this happens.
4. How does the author indicate the complexity of what she/he is presenting?
5. What, according to the author, is a visible marker of modern science’s methodology?
• Part II
6. What is the focus of this paragraph and in what ways does it connect (or not connect)
to the previous subsection?
7. Is the text that you are reading a stand-alone essay or part of a book?
8. Name the crucial steps in the chronological history that the author draws in this
excerpt.
9. Based on the shifts that the author is tracing of the history of modern science, what
inferences can you draw about the nature of science itself?
10. “Galileo provided persuasive though not totally conclusive evidence for this law…” (5)
– what is the meaning of this sentence?
11. “To us this seems obvious…” (5) – what is the function of this phrase?
12. Pick out some of the more academic/specialist terms that the author has introduced
in these 5 pages.
9. Post Reading
• Compare and Contrast the ideas offered in the
passage to your own impressions on the
subject
