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.

This presentation provides a briefing on how to upload submissions and documents in Google Classroom. It was prepared as part of an orientation for new Sainik School in-service teacher trainees. As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
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.

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.

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
2. Assisted/Adaptive Technology
• As an educator we all know that differentiated instruction, instruction that is
personalize and customized for the student, is of utmost importance.
• When creating a differentiated classroom, a teacher must provide flexible
choices of instruction.
• A great way to discovering students interests, abilities, and learning styles is to
create a learning profile for each student. Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences is the
perfect tool for this.

4. The Universal Design for Learning or UDL realized that
technology had the ability to help with differentiated instruction.
It was originally developed with special needs students in mind
but soon it was realized that it benefited all learners of all
abilities. The more we use varying strategies, materials,
assessments, and creativity in our teaching, the more students we
can reach.
Technology is of the utmost importance to UDL. While print
materials are important, digital materials can be stored, searched,
created, and adapted for varying needs.
The UDL uses three networks:
• Recognition Networks-neutral networks in the brain that help identify sensory
data such as objects, facts, and patterns.
• Strategic Networks-neutral networks that control processes for planning,
executing, and monitoring your acitions.
• Affective Networks-neutral networks that relate to feelings and emotions, and
which influence motivation for and engagement with a particular goal, method,
medium, or assessment.

5. Assistive technology is when an item or piece equipment or
technology is used to improve or maintain functional capabilities of
individuals with disabilities.
A student with and IEP will often have assistive technology included
in their educational plan.
Adaptive software can help students with physical, cognitive, visual,
auditory, and other disabilities.
Positioning of computers, adapted keyboards, mouse adaptations,
word processing apps, word prediction apps, and communication
apps benefit these students.
By addressing the needs of all students we are providing the best
education possible.

approach. Belmont, CA: Wadsworth.
6. Diversity
Diversity is important when using
technology.
An effective teacher should understand
and utilize the unique cultural attributes
and experiences of all students. Today’s
classroom continues to more and more
culturally diverse.
7. A collaborative classroom environment is important to all
students, especially in a cultural diverse classroom. Students learn
and benefit from the vast differences in one another.
Students should feel free to question and collaborate.
8. Students should have equitable access to appropriate digital tools
and resources.
Students should have teachers who have great knowledge of
technology and all of the technological materials that are available
to them.
Teachers need to be culturally aware and knowledgeable of not
only their culture but also the culture of others. The teacher
should work with their students to help them understand and
respect their own and other student’s cultures.
9. The classroom must have equitable access to technology and must develop cultural understanding for all
students.
The classroom should always be learning centered.
The teacher must be a model of equitable access of technology to best prepare students.

based approach. Belmont, CA: Wadsworth.

fairly immediate access to
resources about Assistive
Technology (AT) devices
and strategies is one
approach that may help
practitioners more readily
use AT with infants and
toddlers.”
