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.
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.

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.

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.

7. The issues raised in the targeting of national and local
audiences by international and global institutions
International Issues
The film was released in North America, Australia and New Zealand as The Pirates! Band of Misfits. The official explanation from Aardman was that Defoe's
books don't have "the same following outside of the UK," so it was not necessary to keep the original title. Hugh Grant, the voice of The Pirate Captain, said
that the studio "didn't think the Americans would like the longer title." Response from the director of the film, Peter Lord, was that "some people reckoned
the UK title wouldn't charm/ amuse / work in the US. Tricky to prove eh?" Quentin Cooper of the BBC analysed the change of the title and listed several
theories. One of them is that the British audience is more tolerant for the eccentricity of the British animators. Another is that the film makers did not want to
challenge the US viewers who do not accept the theory of evolution. He also developed his own explanation, in which he notes that the word "scientist" is
rarely used in the Hollywood films due to it not being "cool," representing "the mad scientist or the dweeby nerd that dress funny, have no social skills, play
video games, long for unattainable women.
Russell Tovey as Albino Pirate (UK version)
Anton Yelchin as Albino Pirate (US version
Ben Whitehead as Pirate Who Likes Sunsets and Kittens (UK Version)
Al Roker as Pirate Who Likes Sunsets and Kittens (US Version)
These differences in casting are probably down to colloquial accents or preferences and denotations of accents and idioms in different cultures.
The film has grossed $123,054,041 worldwide. $26 million came from United Kingdom,[35] $31 million from the United States and Canada, along with around
$92 million from other territories, including the UK. This shows that it is likely that more money was made in the UK than anywhere else.
Issues with Unique Communities
In January 2012, it was reported that the latest trailer of The Pirates! attracted some very negative reactions from the "leprosy community". In the trailer that
was released in December, The Pirate Captain lands on a ship demanding gold, but is told by a crew member, "Afraid we don't have any gold old man, this is a
leper boat. See," when his arm falls off. Lepra Health in Action and some officials from the World Health Organization, expressed that the joke shows the
illness in a derogatory manner, and it "reinforces the misconceptions which leads to stigma and discrimination that prevents people from coming forward for
treatment." They demanded an apology and removal of the offending scene, to which Aardman responded: "After reviewing the matter, we decided to
change the scene out of respect and sensitivity for those who suffer from leprosy. The last thing anyone intended was to offend anyone...". LHA responded
that it was "genuinely delighted that Aardman has decided to amend the film," while the trailer was expected to be pulled down from websites, and the
theatrical version of the film has the word "leper" replaced with "plague".
8. The ways in which your own experiences of media
consumption illustrate wider patterns and trends of
audience behaviour
My own personal experiences of the way in which media is changing vary from the differences
in prices but also in the new technologies in which our generation is throwing at us. It’s not
just in cinemas that we watch films anymore. When films first came out it was only at the
cinema that people could consume film, then in the 1970’s it was widely available on VHS.
VHS was then outdated by DVD and then it became available in HD (high definition) which has
now become outdated by blu-ray. It isn’t just on the big screens of cinema that film is
available but also on the big screens at home as televisions are getting bigger, so the film
experience can now be replicated at home. Film has also moved onto the smaller screens of
phones and mp4 players by downloads. Due to this film has to attract its viewers again by
issuing deals for example orange Wednesdays and student Thursdays, and this was targeted
towards kids and students. Media companies are buying rights to show films on television
channels, for example Sky Movies. All of this takes away cinemas viewers and can place them
in the same cinema situations at home. Marketing of films has also changed our experience as
we can almost be brain washed into watching “blockbuster” as they are everywhere,
therefore Warner bros and similar tycoons can almost monopolise the market as smaller film
companies like Shane Meadows can be overshadowed as they cannot afford to market their
films with such authority.
10. Sony
• Sony had a massive influence in this film. Even
though Aardman did all the hard work of
creating the animation and filming the whole
thing, they needed some big companies, in
this case Sony, to boost the production and to
get it out there.
11. Open Season
• In terms of animated films, Sony produced
‘Open Season’. It was released in 2006 and
made $197,309,027 compared too Pirates,
which made $123,054,041 . Sony had a large
part to play in the release of Pirates as
mentioned before, but it shows that if they
release there own animated movie, it has
made more money than if they ‘boost’ the
production of a movie.
12. • As a promotion for the release of The Pirates!,
Sony attached to every DVD and Blu-ray a
code to download a LittleBigPlanet 2 mini
pack of Sackboy clothing that represents 3 of
the characters: The Pirate Captain, Cutlass Liz
and Black Bellamy.
