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 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.

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.
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

3. What is Air?
Air is a precious resource
that most of us take for
granted. Air supplies us with
oxygen, which is essential for
our bodies to live. Without
it, we would die within
minutes.
4. What Is Air Pollution??
Air pollution is the
introduction of particulates
,biological molecules or other
harmful materials into Earth's
atmosphere ,causing diseases,
death to humans, damage to
other living organisms such as
animals and food crops or
the natural or built
environment . Air pollution
may come
from anthropogenic or natural
sources.
Air pollution from a fossil-fuel power
station
5. Types of Pollution
In order to understand the causes of air pollution,
several divisions can be made.
Primary air pollutants can be caused by primary
sources or secondary sources. The pollutants that are
a direct result of the process can be called primary
pollutants.
Secondary pollutants are the ones that are caused by
the inter mingling and reactions of primary pollutants.
6. Primary Pollutants
Major primary pollutants
produced by human
activity,
• Sulfur oxides (SOx)-
particularly sulfur dioxide, a
chemical compound with
the formula SO2.
SO2 is produced by
volcanoes and in varies
industrial process.
Coal and petroleum often
contain sulfer compounds,
and their combustion
generates sulfer di-oxide.
7. • Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Nitrogen oxides-
particularly nitrogen
dioxide, are expelled
from high temperature
combustion, and are also
produced during
thunderstorms by
electric discharge.
They can be seen as a
brown haze dome above
or a plume downwind of
cities.
Nitrogen oxides
(NOx)
8. Carbon monoxide (CO)
• CO is a colorless,
odorless, toxic yet
non-irrigation gas.
• It is a product by
incomplete
combustion of fuel
such as natural gas,
coal or wood.
• Vehicular exhaust is
a major source of
carbon monoxide.
9. Volatile organic compounds
• VOCs are a well-known outdoor
air pollutant.
• They are categorized as either
methane (CH) or non-methane
(NMVOCs)
• Methane is an extremely
efficient greenhouse gas which
contributes to enhanced global
warming.
• The aromatic NMVOCs
benzene, toluene and xylene
are suspected carcinogens and
may lead to leukemia with
prolonged expure.
10. Particulates
• Alternatively referred to as
particulate matter (PM),
atmospheric particulate matter,
or fine particles, are tiny particles
and gas.
• Some particulates occur
naturally, originating from
volcanoes, dust storms, forest
and grassland fires, living
vegetation and sea spray.
• Human activities, such as the
burning of fossil fuels in vehicles,
power plants and various
industrial processes also
generate significant amounts of
aerosols.
11. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
• Harmful to the ozone
layer; emitted from
products currently
banned from use
• These are gases which
are released from air
conditioners,
refrigerators, aerosol
sprays, etc.
• This allows harmful
ultraviolet rays to reach
the earth’s surface.
12. Ammonia (NH3)
• Emitted from agriculture
processes.
• Ammonia is a compound
with the formula NH3.
• Ammonia, either directly
or indirectly, is also a
building block for the
synthesis of many
pharmaceuticals.
• In the atmosphere,
ammonia reacts with
oxides of nitrogen and
sulphur to form
secondary particles.
13. Secondary Pollutants
• Particulates created from
gaseous primary
pollutants and
compounds in
photochemical smog.
• Smog is a kind of air
pollution.
• Smog results from large
amounts of coal burning
in an area caused by a
mixture of smoke and
sulfur dioxide.
14. Ground Level Ozone (O)
• Formed from Nox and VOCs.
• It is also an important constituent of certain regions of
the stratosphere commonly known as the Ozone layer.
• Photochemical and chemical reactions involving it drive
many of the chemical processes that occur in the
atmosphere by day and by night.
15. Sources
• There are various locations, activities or
factors which are responsible for releasing
pollutants into the atmosphere.
• These sources can be classified into two major
categories-
1) Anthropogenic (man-made) sources
2) Natural sources
17. Anthropogenic sources
• These are related to the
burning of multiple types
of fuel.
• Stationary Sources
include smock stacks of
power plants,
manufacturing facilities
and waste incinerators, as
well as furnaces and
other types of fuel-
burning heating devices.
18. • Chemicals, dust and
controlled burn practices in
agriculture and forest
management.
• Mobile Sources include
motor vehicles, marine
vessels, and aircraft.
• Fumes from paint, hair
spray, varnish, aerosol
sprays, and other solvents.
• Waste deposition in
landfills, which generate
methane.
19. Natural Sources
• Dust from natural sources ,
usually large areas of land
with few or no vegetation.
• Methane, emitted by the
digestion of food by
animals, for example cattle.
• Radon gas from radioactive
decay within the Earth’s
crust.
• It is considered to be a
health hazard. Radon gas
from natural sources can
accumulate in buildings,
especially in confined areas
such as the basement.
20. • Smoke and carbon monoxide from
wildfires.
• Volcanic activity, which produces
sulfur, chlorine, and ash particulates.
21. 1. Bunning of Fossil
Fuels:
• Sulfur dioxide emitted from
the combustion of fossil fuels
like coal, petroleum and
other factory combustibles of
pollution.
• Pollution emitted from
vehicles including trucks,
jeeps, cars, trains, airplanes
cause immense amount of
pollution.
22. 2. Agricultural activities
• Ammonia is a very common
by product from agriculture
related activities and is one
of the most hazardous gases
in the atmosphere.
• Use of insecticides,
pesticides and fertilizers in
agricultural activities has
grown quite a lot.
• They emit harmful chemicals
into the air and can also
cause water pollution.
23. 3. Exhaust from factories and
industries
• Manufacturing
industries release
large amount of
carbon monoxide,
hydrocarbons, organic
compounds, and
chemicals into the air
thereby depleting the
quality of air.
24. 4. Mining operators
• Mining is a process
wherein minerals
below the earth are
extracted using
large equipments.
• During the process
dust and chemicals
are released in the
air causing massive
air pollution.
25. 5. Indoor air pollution
• Household cleaning products, painting
supplies emit toxic chemicals in the air and
cause air pollution
27. • The effects of air
pollution are alarming.
• They are known to
create several
respiratory and heart
condition along with
cancer, among other
threats to the body.
28. • Air pollution causes following diseases
in human body:
Cystic fibrosis
Lung disease
Cancer
Difficulty in breathing
Wheezing
Coughing
Asthma
Worsening of existing respiratory and cardiac
condition
29. Effect of Air Pollution on
Materials
• The particulate matter
causes damage to
building.
• The corrosion is
enhanced.
• It causes cracks fading of
pointed surface.
• The particulates
accumulate on the soil
and reduces fertility of
soil.
30. Effect of Air pollution on Animals
• Just like humans, animals also face some
devastating affects of air pollution.
• Toxic chemicals presents in the air can force
wildlife species to move to new place and
change their habitat
31. Air Pollution in Bangladesh
• Basically, there are two major sources
of air pollution in Bangladesh
industrial emissions and vehicular
emissions. The industrial sources
include brick kilns, fertilizer factories,
sugar, paper, jute and textile mills,
spinning mills, tanneries, garment,
bread and biscuit factories, chemical
and pharmaceutical industries,
cement production and processing
factories, metal workshops, wooden
dust from saw mills and dusts from
ploughed land, and salt particles from
ocean waves near the and coastal
lands.
32. • With increased rate of urbanization in the
country, the number of vehicles is also
increasing rapidly, and contributing to more
and more air pollution.
33. Solutions for Air Pollution
1. Use public mode of transportation:
• Encourage people to use more and more public
modes of transportation to reduce pollution.
• Also, try to make use of car pooling.
• If you and your colleagues come from the same
locality and have same timings, you can explore
this option to save energy and money.
34. 2.Conserve energy:
• Switch off fans and lights when you are going
out.
• Large amount of fossil fuels are burnt to
produce electricity. You can save the
environment from degradation by7 reducing
the amount of fossil fuels to be burned
35. 3. Understand the concept of
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle:
• Do not throw away items that are of no use to
you.
• In fact reuse them for some other purpose.
• Foe e.g. we can use old jars to store cereals or
pulses.
36. 4. Emphasis on clean energy
resources:
• Clean energy technologies like solar, wind and
geothermal are on high these days.
• Governments of various countries have been
providing grants to consumers who are interested
in installing solar panels for their home.
• This will go a long way to curb air pollution.
