The document discusses the new media technologies used at each stage of creating a media promotional package. In the construction stage, the student filmed using a video camera and speaker, and took photos with an SLR camera. Final Cut Pro and Adobe software were used for editing. In the evaluation stage, the student created a PowerPoint presentation, conducted an online questionnaire using Facebook, and published results online using various software and hardware, gaining new skills along the way. The student concluded that completing the project required familiarization and use of many new media technologies.

Spil Games: outgrowing an internet startupart-spilgames
This presentation will explain how Spil Games has grown in a short time from an internet startup to a global online gaming company and how we currently are building a global cross datacenter storage solution with MySQL as its backend.
The first part will contain a short summary of where we started with our database engineering department (look ahead at most one week in time), to a more professionalized department (look ahead and plan three to four months in time) to currently growing out of the startup phase (look ahead and plan more than one year in time). This will be illustrated with some examples of the growing pains we encountered with scaling, replication and high availability and leading up to the conclusion that we need to acknowledge our problems and shortcomings to actually be able to overcome them.
The second part of the presentation will contain a comparison of our old architecture against the new architecture. In this new architecture we take into account that failure of a complete datacenter is certain to occur sometime and strive to give our users the best possible experience, even in worst case when data is inaccessible. We also introduce asynchronous calls which enable us to fire and forget most of our writes. The architecture is being built with MySQL, handler sockets, Erlang and Memcache as its building blocks.

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

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.
1. QUESTION 4
HOW DID YOU USE NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN THE CONSTRUCTION
AND RESEARCH, PLANNING AND EVALUATION STAGES?
2. In each stage of creating my complete media promotional package I had to use many different technologies some
new and some which I was familiar with, I had to use both hardware and software and found it was easier to adjust to
those things which were just more advanced to the things we were used to like the video camera which was used
primarily in the construction stage . On the other hand as I was already used to the Adobe Photoshop software to
learn Adobe InDesign wasn’t as complicated and it seemed to be better off in the construction of the CDdigipak. I
have obtained new skill which I can use in the future when creating designs.
3. RESEARCH AND PLANNING
HARDWARE
In my research and planning section I felt I needed to analyse at least four grime music videos to get into the theme of
the grime culture but for this I would need the internet to access youtube, the world biggest video sharing self as this
is where I would be uploading my final main product of my media promotional package. I would be accessing the web
via a windows computer as those were the ones available to me allowing me to access the web and also use the
software word to type up my analysis then paste it on my online blog.
As I was the one to recommend the artist to my group it became my duty to get in contact with him as I knew him on
a personal level therefore it was easier to get in contact with him. To get in contact with him I used the web as well as
a mobile phone device to ask him when and where and to confirm he was still available closer to the filming time. I
also had to go through the same procedure to as my fellow group members any updates about if they are still coming.
We also did a chase sequence to familiarise ourselves a bit with the advanced video camera at first it seems a bit
overwhelming through its size and multiple functions however after some time it became more simple as you begin
to think of it like a normal camera. After we had filmed the chase sequence we went into post production were we
were first introduced to the interface of the MAC PC’s being a Windows PC user my self I found it slightly challenging
however there was many tips and tricks around the room to help us get used to the interface.
SOFTWARE
There was some software evolved in the research and planning section that would be used throughout all the
production stages. The first one was Microsoft word which we used on the Windows PC’s in class to type up the
treatment that i had wrote as we discussed it together.
Another software which we began to practice while doing our chase sequence exercise was Final Cut Pro which I
seemed to get the hang of quite quickly as I watched tutorials on how to do certain things on Final Cut Pro as I knew
this is a software that professionals use.
4. CONSTRUCTION SECTION
HARDWARE
The construction section was where I had to put all my research and planning into action, first off I filmed using the
same camera that I used in the chase sequence exercise so that there wasn’t time wasted in adjusting the functions of
the camera.
Another piece of hardware that was vital that I took from my house to use for the filming session was a Speaker
which I had bring to very filming session as it was vital to have the lip sync good to make the video seem more
professional and if the lip sync was out it’s the most obvious thing to the audience and doesn't make them want to
watch on.
I also had to take my SLR camera so that I could take pictures for my group so that it could be used for our CDdigipak I
took the pictures after we had finished filming on the same day.
I was in constant use of my mobile phone as I was the only one with the artist number as it made sense because the
artist might not be comfortable talking with the others straight away.
We used a hard drive given to use by the college which we used to save our footage on and then return it after we
were done.
SOFTWARE
In the post production, construction of the vide (the editing) I used Final Cut Pro again and it seemed to go
accordingly.
In the creation of the CDdigipak we all used the Adobe Photoshop and InDesign software it was useful because it was
easier to manipulate on Photoshop but easier to bring everything together n InDesign
5. EVALUATION SECTION
HARDWARE
I used the computer throughout each stage of my media promotional package even in the evaluation stage I was
required to answer four primary questions about media promotional package, feedback, effectiveness of the
combination, meaning I would need access to the web in order to screen-shot every aspect of my video and other
grime music videos. I also needed to use a website to further post this on my online blog.
SOFTWARE
The main software I used for the evaluation stage was Microsoft PowerPoint I did this on a Windows PC, because I
had to create the evaluation on the presentation and then upload it using Slideshare.net, this enabled me to then
further upload it my blog on wordpress.com.
I also used Microsoft excel to create pie charts after I had done set up a little questionnaire online for people to fill
in I did this via Facebook.
Sometimes to keep comments anonymous I used paint to crop out peoples names so that they wouldn’t be exposed
on my blog.
6. IN CONCLUSION…
Every stage of my media promotional package has required me to use many new media technologies and I believe I
have adjusted to them well. There uses were limited to me at the start but once I began to familiarise myself with
them they became a skill that I could say that I have achieved after creating a full media promotional package for
my artist. Without any of these media technologies I wouldn’t be able to do even half of the things I did as every
stage required each one of these hardware and software's to be used in some way or another.
