Global Learning as Pedagogy, Not as a Project...
It’s time to move beyond the “wow” factor of a global project designed to connect your students with other kids who happen to live halfway around the world. Most of these projects don’t go beyond students working parallel to each other, contributing their perspective, data, or participating in Q & A sessions via synchronous or asynchronous technology platforms.
Global skills, literacies, and capacities need to push our teachers and students to not just talk about the world, but learn, speak, and collaborate with the world. Let’s explore examples and ideas to connect to experts, mentors, and peers from around the world as a way of teaching and learning.
‣ the amplified possibilities of global connections to move beyond your classroom,
‣ a global learning network at your disposal,
‣ using your imagination to bring the world (language and
culture) to your students,
‣ opportunities to support and embed 21st century skills and
literacies in your curriculum,
‣ a showcase of examples from the World Language
classroom.

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.

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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

2. “To be ready for college, workforce training and
life in a technological society, students need to
be able to gather, comprehend, evaluate,
synthesize, and report on information…The need
to conduct research and to produce and consume
media is embedded into every aspect of today’s
curriculum. Research and media skills and
understandings are embedded throughout the
Standards rather than treated in a separate
section.”

Student Reading Logs
18. I think my writing improved using the blog because I thought anyone could
view the blog and so I wanted it to be good when somebody looked at it.
Using the blog format wasn't hard as I did it more and more. In my opinion I
think my writing improved while using the blog, because I got to practice a lot
more. So I kept getting better and better. The best thing about posting my
letters on my blog was that I could say what I really thought of the book, I
could give my real opinion of it, and be my own person.
All in all I think using the blogs in L.A. class this year was very successful. We
could use them for a number of different things, from writing about our books,
to posting and sharing our work. I think it was a good way to broadcast who we
were to the rest of the class and anyone who was reading. By looking through
older posts I had made at the start of the year I get a flashback of all we have
done.

21. Evaluate the advantages and
disadvantages of using
different mediums (eg. Print
or digital text, video,
multimedia) to present a
particular topic or idea. (RI.8.7)
24. I really enjoyed this project and. I couldn't stop my Fangirl scream and I had
jitters of excitement. One of the most important thing I learned from is is
probably that I understood the characters and the book very well. Another
thing I learned from this project is that it's easy, simple, and fun!
I would do this project again because it was the most fun project I’ve ever done.
What you need to say when you present our movies is “these were done by 5TH
GRADERS”
Did I enjoy it? No I didn’t enjoy it , I loved it. It was funnest book report ever. I
learned and thought about my book a lot than just a regular book report.
I think that other teachers should make book trailers with their students
because of the benefits of achievement, further knowledge with technology
and the students will enjoy it. It’s not one those book projects you dread, every
day you want work on it and make it better until you have a final project you’re
proud of.
26. Make strategic use of digital media in presentations to enhance
understand of findings, reasoning and evidence and to add
interest. (SL. 11-12.5 )

28. Although the CCR anchor standards for language themselves
do not specifically reference using technology some of the
grade level standards do.
In grades 3-8 the expectation is to be able to use glossaries,
dictionaries and later reference materials, both print and
digital, to determine meaning of key words and phrases or its
part of speech.
