This proposal outlines a short film project about a person stuck in a time loop. The intended audience is mainly 16-18 year old males. Throughout the year, the student has learned video editing skills in Premiere Pro. The concept involves a person exploring a strange hallway that loops back on itself, with changing elements that increase tension. Research will focus on looping shots and human emotional reactions. Post-production techniques will make the loop appear seamless. An evaluation diary and final reflection will assess the work. Filming and editing are scheduled for weeks 3-5.

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.

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.

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

Working Title:
What is it called? This can change if you think of something better later
Audience:
Who is your audience? Be very detailed; age, gender, social status, psychographic etc. Use the
Audience Classifications PowerPoint on Blackboard to help you develop this section.
Why would your project appeal to this person? Discuss each audience element in relation to
content (why would your product appeal to the age group? Why would your product appeal to the
gender? Etc.) I believe that my audience is mainly 16-18 year old males. This is because it is a
college film and it may appeal more to this age group that an older age group.
Rationale (approx. 100 words)
Review your progress throughout the year- what skills and knowledge have you acquired?
Throughout the year I have learned how to use premier pro and have also learned how to use
sound recorders to make sound effects and how to use them effectively whilst editing them in to a
video.
How has the subjects you have studied this year informed your choice for this project?
The subject that I have studied this year has not really informed my choice for this project as the
theme of my current project is going to be different to the themes that have been used in previous
projects from different subjects.
What have you studied and how will it have a direct impact upon your project?
So far I have studied print adverts, film production and editing briefly and I have studied video
games in more detail than the other subjects. The only thing that I think will impact my project is
the film production that I did at the start of the course since I learned some things doing that.
Project Concept (approx. 200 words)
What is the concept for your project and what are you going to make?
I am going to make a short film where there is a person who is stuck in a loop. At the start of the
film the person wakes up due to a noise that they hear in the hallway. They get up and go in to the
hallway to check it out. When they enter the hallway, the door closes behind them and they hear a
strange noise after it. They continue down the hallway and try to open all the doors on they way
yet they all seem to be locked. When they get to the final door at the end of the hallway they open
it and they walk back into the hallway from the door they originally came through. They then go
through the door many times whilst going through a mix of emotions and there become
discrepancies in the hallway as things have changed and new things have appeared. When the
person as on the verge of breaking down, a gun appears in the next loop. The person then picks
up the gun and the screen goes black, and then follows the sound of a gunshot. Then the very
beginning of the first scene repeats.
What research will you need to conduct and how will it help you make your project/
I will need to conduct research on methods of different shots and how to make shots look like they
have looped. I will also need to do research on human emotion and try to get an idea on how a
person would realistically react the that sort of situation.
Production Techniques (approx. 150 words)
What specialist techniques do you need to consider? (e.g. green screen, Steadicam, post-
production, sound, etc)
I will need to consider a specialist technique in post-production to make it look like there is a loop
when the person comes through the doors. I also need to make a lot of sound effects and maybe
some music with an ominous tone to it so that it adds tension to the scene and I could also use
music to throw off the viewer so that they expect one thing but something else happens. An
example of this happening is the music played in game of thrones during “The Battle of the
Bastards”. When Rickon is running there is music playing which is building up to a point where the
viewer would expect there to be a payoff but when the music reaches its final point, nothing
happens for a little while after. I could try to incorporate this sort of sound design in to my film.
Does this require any specialist equipment/training/demos?

I don’t think so yet I am not sure.
Evaluation (approx. 50 words)
How do you plan to evaluate the work? Reference conducting on-going evaluation and your final
self-reflection, analysing your work and its outcomes.
I will be doing a development diary every week that evaluates the work that I have done
throughout the week. I will also do a final evaluation of the work at the end of the project so that I
can find things that went wrong and think of ways that I could fix them.
