Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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. Procrastination is the avoidance of doing a task that
needs to be done. Emotions create the blockage, and
reasons for procrastination which include feelings of
guilt, inadequacy, depression, and self-doubt. Poor
organizational skills compound the problem by making
even small steps to complete the task difficult to
seemingly impossible.
What is Procrastination?
3. Reasons for procrastination include:
Fear of failure.
Lack of interest in the task.
Feelings of anger or hostility toward someone—usually the one who gave you the assignment
The impression that the task is too time consuming—the task will take large blocks of time, and
nothing can be done until you have one large chunk of time.
Lack of knowledge or skill.
Low self-confidence and low self-esteem.
Too busy—real or imagined.
Stubbornness—"Don't think you can tell me what and when to do it."
Manipulation—procrastination may be used to control or manipulate the behavior of others.
Why Procrastinate?
4. Types of Chronic Procrastination
Thrill seekers wait until the last minute to complete the task to get a “rush.” They
believe they work better under pressure.
Unfortunately, when you wait for the last minute, the work you produce is often of
inferior quality—because there is no time to make corrections.
Avoidance procrastination occurs for many reasons, including avoiding perceived
unpleasant tasks; fear of the completion of the task will be a reflection of self-worth,
lack of self-confidence in ability; or fear that successful completion of the task will
instill high expectations for future performance on similar tasks.
Avoidance procrastinators may prefer being viewed as lacking in effort instead of
lacking in ability when they fail.
5. Recognize that you have the ability to be in control and then make a commitment
to yourself to change.
• To learn a new habit, set up a new routine that contrasts with the old one. Create
reminders to keep yourself on task, and announce your new plans to friends for their
support.
• Practice, practice, practice the new habit.
• When you make exceptions, it takes much more effort to recover control than to
maintain it from the beginning—it is like binging during a diet.
Set deadlines for yourself and keep them – use reminder notes!
Break down big projects into smaller steps and set deadlines for each part.
Tell people about your deadlines, so they can check up on you.
Set up a reward system for each part and then reward yourself when you have
completed a deadline – Give yourself a treat!
Curing the Procrastination Blues
6. Ask yourself questions to determine why you are procrastinating.
• Is this a recent or reoccurring pattern?
• What is the root cause? Fear? Avoidance? Self-confidence? Perfectionism?
• Is this a personal problem beyond school?
• Is it the assignment the problem or placing social activities over school activities?
• Are you afraid to be labeled a “nerd”?
Do you think that college is just an extension of high school, and you can get away with
incomplete work without consequences?
Change your self-statements and restructure your thoughts to take responsibility for your actions.
These statements blame others for your failure:
◦ It’s not my fault. . . .
◦ I could have done it, but. . . .
◦ Yes, it was due, however. . . .
◦ Yes, but. . . .
Focus on when and where external attributes versus internal attributes may cause the problem.
Could you have avoided the problem by beginning earlier?
Battling Procrastination
7. Bits and Pieces
Focus on the smaller subsets of the task, rather than the entire task. Write out the steps
necessary to complete the steps and then go through them step-by-step.
The “5-Minute” Plan
Break the task 5-minute subsets and do them step-by-step. This is for people who prefer
to have a set amount of time to work on things.
80% Success Rule
Be realistic with your goals. Complete at least 80% of the task. This is a good start, and
after completing the 80% you know you can go further and complete the whole task.
Social Support of Task Completion
Seek help from people who complete tasks. Build a social network of support, so there is
someone who can push you on when you lose sight of the goal.
8. Think of one thing you are currently procrastinating doing. Write
the task on a sheet of paper. It might be personal, school, or work-
related.
Now write all the reasons for your delay. Take five or ten minutes
because some of them may be hidden from you. These reasons are
the controlling influences. Write down as many as possible.
List arguments against delay and argue against all the reasons for
delay in a convincing manner. If you can argue against them
successfully, you will be able to start the task.
Practice What You've Learned
9. Plan for tomorrow and establish priorities—some students find that
simply writing down reasonable starting and stopping times help them get
going – wrist watch during exams (start/stop time)
Expect some backsliding. Occasionally, your plans will not work. Accept
the setbacks and start again. Do not fixate on failure, but rather learn from
it. Why did you have the setback—now figure out how to prevent them in
the future.
General Hints
10. Take control by learning new habits:
Understand why you are procrastinating, so observe what you do (or don’t do)
and then determine the underlying cause.
When you know the cause, focus on ways to overcome your procrastination.
Create a plan and then practice the new habits until they become a part of you.
Break tasks down to small steps
Learn how long it takes to do a task
Organize tasks
Find models to emulate
Practice, practice, practice good habits
Don’t beat yourself up if you backslide, just start practicing the new habits again.
