2017 - Liberating Diverse Creativities: The Future of Arts Based Environment...Marna Hauk, PhD
This presentation was designed to support a professional development workshop nurturing liberating creativities, introducing environmental education researchers to arts-based educational research. Together we explore justice and empathy, surface and value diversity through multiple ways of knowing, and engage with arts-informed ways of researching. The slides have an accompanying briefing paper. The experiential dimension of the planned workshop is captured with recommendations for practicing hands-on, interactive infusions and collaborative inquiry. Affirmations, motivations for the work, lenses for the research, approaches, and research examples are included. Emergent movements such as just sustainability arts in research, arts and humanities in environmental educational research, and arts-STEM all highlight the importance of arts-based educational research methods.
This is a North Central University course (EDR 8205) assignment: Ethnographic Research. It is written in APA format, has been graded by an instructor (A), and includes references. Most higher-education assignments are submitted to turnitin, so remember to paraphrase. Let us begin.
his session will speak to the teacher who finds a “sacred activism” in the work of education. We recognize that choosing the path of teaching means we are committed to the struggle of enhancing humanity in ways that empower students to make the world we share a better, more just and equitable place. Participants will be invited to explore the “Four Domains” that define our mission of global competency and ask how they can be “rethought” through a lens of social justice pedagogy. We will work to consider how our classrooms, instruction, and curricula can be used as sites where students are given opportunities to act as globally competent leaders in ways that promote equity and justice. We will search for connections between the concept of “anti-oppressive” education and what it means to teach for global competence while simultaneously showing up for social justice. The goal is for participants to leave with a framework that includes ideas and examples of practical applications for supporting global competence and social justice pedagogy in our daily practice.
Intentional Child and Youth Care Life-Space Practice: A Qualitative Course-Ba...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: This course-based research study explored how child and youth care students both understand
and engage in life-space practice. Data collection strategies included a conversational, open-ended interview and
an arts-based activity. The open-ended interviews were conducted via Zoom and Google Meet.The thematic
analysis resulted in the identification of four themes. The first three themes: a) it is meeting youth where they
are at, b) it is relational, and c) it is intentional practice aredirectly related to the central research question, and
the final theme: d) bureaucratic structures, policies, and procedures was extracted from a sub-question that asked
about what ―gets in the way of‖ effective life-space practice.

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
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

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.

Arts Methods with Young People
1. 6 . A R T S M E T H O D S W I T H Y O U N G P E O P L E
• This section develops your understanding of Participatory Arts-
Based Research (PABR) approaches, specifically in relation to their
uptake with youth groups.
• Secondly, it outlines (some of the many) creative methods that can
potentially be used with young people.
2. PA R T I C I PAT O R Y A R T S -

From the openings that are created by arts research, people – just ordinary
people, you and me, researchers as participants and audiences – can implement
new visions of dignity, care, democracy, and […] ways of being in the
world. (Finley, 2005:689)
• PABR draws on the ideals of PR and Arts-based research, and thus views those
participating in arts-based inquiry as social activists (Finley, 2005).
• Arts-based methods have worked successfully for researchers working in PR
paradigms because of the inherently participatory, collaborative nature of
numerous arts practices (Leavy, 2017). Such practices include theatre, film,
photography, visual arts, narrative writing, music, and collage. There are a range
of methodologies and practices connected to these, such as
photovoice, videovoice, photo elicitation, videography, visual
ethnography, ethnocinema, ethnodrama, ethnotheatre, and art journaling (Leavy,
3. • Arts-based methods, art inquiry and creative orientations to producing research data are popular in
projects with excluded or traditionally marginalised groups. This is because of their potential for
emancipatory outcomes, and the way they enable develop alternative knowledges to be developed
and articulated through multimodal resources (Nind et al., 2012; Finley, 2005).
• The variation of multimodal resources offered in PABR offer more potential to engage with meaning
beyond the verbal practices of more traditional qualitative research methods such as interviews and
questionnaires (Leavy, 2017).

4. • In terms of expressing and legitimising marginal knowledges (Freire, 1996),
arts practices are argued to connect and develop embodied knowledge
drawn from sensory experience (Fox, 2016).
• In this way, arts provide a new dimension through which to explore
individuals’ subjective realities, and when used with excluded
or marginalised groups, open up new discourses to challenge established
ones that may work to exclude or marginalise people in the first place.
5. PA R T I C I PAT O R Y A R T S - B A S E D R E S E A R C H
W I T H Y O U N G P E O P L E
• PR studies with young people have identified the liberating potential of arts-based practices in traditional education
contexts, where the different communication media of creative activities allowed young people to ‘try on’
new selves, and explore important aspects of their lives which the paradigm of their education context did not allow
for (Goessling, 2017; DeJonckheere et al., 2014; Nind et al., 2012; Holloway & Lecompte, 2001).
• The process of using art in research can provide alternative spaces which enable participants to critically inquire
into their contexts, and to express developing identities in relation to these (Goessling, 2017; Nind et al., 2012).
• Arts-based research projects with marginalised groups have also noted the benefits of creative activities as
cathartic ways to engage with emotional experiences (Finley, 2005). As outlined above, young people are a group
who can experience marginalization through the dominant social discourses that justify their regulation.

• As mentioned earlier, education contexts are argued to be particularly fertile ground for arts-
based participatory methods with young people, because of the connections PABR has with the
interests of arts pedagogy.
• Finley sees an integral point of arts-based methods to be how they enable new ways of
understanding people and their contexts:
‘As an educator, I want children to learn early to become lifelong activists who are equipped for
guerilla warfare against oppression […] Performing social change begins with artful ways of seeing
and knowing ourselves and the world in which we live.’ (2005:692)
