The document discusses pre-production planning for a gaming magazine cover and double page spread. It considers different fonts and color schemes that would appeal to gamers. Several screenshots and character images from popular games are presented as potential cover art, along with analysis of what aspects of each image would attract readers' attention. Layouts and health and safety issues are briefly addressed. A 5-day schedule is outlined to design the magazine cover and double page spread using online research and Photoshop.
Understanding the pathophysiology of carcinoma of breast is essential for deciding the optimum treatment for this lethal disease. The bilogical behaviour of the disease should guide radical treatment of the disease. Radical surgery is still the gold standard for treatment. Chemotherapy,radiotherapy and hormonal manipulation are useful adjuncts to surgery.

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.

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

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.

2. Style sheet
“Gamer” font. I like this because it is quite bold
and fits in with the genre very well.
“Game Font” This font stands out to me because
its different and unique with out looking too
weird and obscure. I think that with the right
colour scheme, a title with this font would draw
peoples eyes.
“Vaio Con Dios” font would fit a gaming magazine perfectly because its
bold and has the aspects of the previous two that I like. It has the
curviness and the boldness and those are both the aspects I like about the
other two.
I like this font because its similar to a font used by a very well known game. So the potential customer
will see it and know right away what the magazine is about.
3. All these colours I’ve chosen are common colours used in magazines of this genre. They all stand out
and can be used boldly. I think that I will use some of these colours in my final design because for a
start they stand out and would look good used correctly in a gaming magazine. But also when
looking at similar products, I realised that other game magazines use colours to not only catch
peoples eyes but to emphasise the main character. The colours are either a background from the
game or something to complement the art style of the character. Not something completely random.
4. This wallpaper is made from an in game screen shot that has been
edited to be used for promotional material for the game. The bright
colours and the silhouette's of the buildings and the main character
make this a very unique picture representing the game perfectly. I think
if I were to use this for my magazine it would draw attention to the
magazine and make people pick it up.
He’s walking witch shows he’s busy. You can tell he’s of importance
because the camera is positioned down, he’s not looking down at you
witch shows he’s not a threat. This is true to the character because he’s
a loyal man. He kills, but only people that he feels deserve it. That is
represented perfectly by this image.
5. I think this picture would suit a two page spread rather than the front cover
of the magazine. This is a good representation of the game. It would suit a
two page spread because it’s a landscape picture and its an in game
screenshot that is barley edited and just looks like a good way to show off
what you are able to do in the game.
The bright blue sky in the background and the main character in centre
focus would entice the reader to read a review of this game by seeing a few
images like this.
6. This picture would be perfect for a front cover because its simple and
shows the traits of the character. For example, he's holding his trade
mark silver ballers so instantly long time fans will recognise him. Also
his face is covered up by the shadows witch shows to new fans that
you don’t know very much about him and he's mysterious. More
obviously it signifies that it’s a stealth game and you literally have to
hide in the shadows. The character has been made for promotional art
Overall colours are very masculine. The black on his suit have been
darkened to look more mysterious and to make the whites stand out
more. The colours are very masculine. The red on his tie and the inside
of his jacket are dark, yet the stand out over the black. The red is
almost blood red symbolising the name of the game “blood money”.
He's is stood and his body is facing away from the camera yet his head
and his line of sight is looking directly at you. He is positioned in such a
way where he's almost looking down on you. His guns are pointing
towards the ground, showing he's not a threat. However the fact he
has them out is showing he can be a threat if he wanted to be.
7. This picture would look good on the inside of the magazine rather than the front cover mostly because it’s a landscape
picture. Also because it looks a bit too dark to be on the front cover. The art work is digital art created for promotional
material rather than an in game screenshot.
The shadows on his face show to new fans of the series that he's mysterious, the fact you cant see his face shows that
you don’t know what he's thinking, witch is true to the character because in the games you as the player can choose
multiple ways to play the game. The masculine colours represent the whole feel of the game, the black gloves and sharp
suit are all trade marks of the character and gives fans a very good idea what the game will entail.
He is in his trade mark pose with his trade mark guns. So within one glance fans will know what the article is about.
8. This picture would suit a front cover of a magazine. Unlike the previous images you can see
his face he looks angry but slightly smug. His facial expression is defiantly true to the
character and will show potential readers exactly what his intentions are.
The fact he is holding his fibre wire isn’t a good sign, because he only gets it out when he as
intentions of killing. This is mostly the reason for the look on his face. There is half a shadow
over him symbolising that as the player you can chose how to play, you can chose to be
stealthy or go in all guns blazing.
The pose he's positioned in is quite a signature pose for the character, he's placed in front of
a black background witch I will probably remove for the front cover. His bottom half has
been cut out because his suit and face are showing all that needs to be shown.
