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
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.
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.

3. Introduction
This is the first part of a series of four courses (Basic Arabic Grammar: Parts A - D). By the end of
the fourth course students should be able to recognise almost all of the grammatical constructions in
any Arabic text, and understand the text with the use of an appropriate dictionary.
This first part focuses on correctly forming basic nominal and verbal sentences.
There are ten video lessons which accompany this textbook. Students will also need the following
texts to derive the maximum benefit from this course:
● Basic Arabic Grammar: Part A - Answer Key
● Vocabulary Tickets Pack
This grammar course assumes an understanding of the Arabic alphabet and vowel system, and the
basic rules for reading and writing Arabic, as covered in the course Reading and Writing the Arabic
Script (TAS001A).
It is suggested that students work through the ten chapters in this course in the following manner:
1. Read through each chapter;
2. Watch the video lesson for the chapter;
3. Re-read the chapter - you should now have a thorough understanding of the main grammar
points covered;
4. Memorise the vocabulary for the chapter using the Vocabulary Tickets Pack;
5. Attempt all of the translation exercises in writing, and check your answers in the Answer
Key. Make sure you've understood any mistakes that you made.
6. As you work through the textbook, periodically review the translation exercises from prior
chapters until you're able to complete them orally, without hesitation.
Before beginning this grammar course, students should read through the course Introduction to
Learning Arabic (TAS003A), which explains how the vocabulary lists are organised, and gives a
vocabulary memorization technique.

4. 1 Definite and Indefinite Nouns, and the Nominal Sentence
A The Noun in Arabic
Arabic nouns are either indefinite or definite.
Indefinite nouns take a tanwīn on their final letter, and are generally translated into English using
the word 'a':
a boy ولد
a book كتاب
a man رجل
To make these nouns definite, we remove the tanwīn and fix the word ال
1 to the beginning of the
word. This is generally translated using the word 'the':
the boy الولد
the book الكتاب
the man الرجل
Unlike in English, adjectives in Arabic are also either definite or indefinite, just like the nouns. We'll
come back to this point in the next chapter.
B The Nominal Sentence
The most basic sentence in Arabic is called the nominal sentence. This is of the form 'X is/are Y',
such as 'The boy is tall', or 'The books are big.'
X is usually a definite noun, and is known as the subject. Y is usually an indefinite noun or an
indefinite adjective, and is called the predicate.
This is illustrated below. Note that in Arabic we don't have a word for 'is/are' in the nominal
sentence.
3
5. Consider the following nominal sentences:
The door is big الباب
كبير
The man is a teacher الرجل
أستاذ
C The Singular Detached Pronouns
We can replace the subject of a nominal sentence with a pronoun. For example, rather than saying
'The man is tall', we might want to say, 'He is tall'. The Arabic pronouns we use for this replacement
are called the detached pronouns.
Detached pronouns are fully covered in Chapter 8; only the singular forms are given here. Note
there are different words for 'you' in Arabic for addressing a male and a female person. We'll
differentiate in English by using SRm (singular masculine) and SRf (singular feminine) in subscript.
I أنا
1
youSRm أنت
youSRf أنت
he/it2
هو
she/it هي
1 The ا of أنا
1 is silent, so it is pronounced as if it were: أن
1 .
2 Note that there is no separate pronoun for 'it'. Instead, we just use هو
1 or هي
1 depending on whether the subject
being referred to is masculine or feminine respectively (see Chapter 3).

is/are
tall is The man
طويل الرجل
The Nominal
Sentence
English Example
Arabic Example
PREDICATE SUBJECT
6. Consider the following sentences:
YouSRm are tall أنت
طويل
He is short هو
قصير
I am young أنا
صغير
D Using 'And' in the Nominal Sentence
The word for 'and' in Arabic is و
1 . Its use in the nominal sentence is very intuitive. Consider the
following nominal sentences, each of which has more than one predicate:
The door is big and beautiful الباب
كبير
و
جميل
The man is a teacher and a student الرجل
أستاذ
و
طالب
The street is long and wide الشارع
طويل
و
واسع
'And' can also be used to link two nominal sentences together:
The sea is big and the river is small البحر
كبير
و
النهر
صغير
The man is a teacher and the boy is a student الرجل
أستاذ
و
الولد
طالب
The chair is old and the door is new 7
يالكرس
قديم
و
الباب
جديد

3 A single Arabic word may have a number of plurals. This is true of a few English words too (e.g. the plurals of
antenna are antennas and antennae, the plurals of fungus are fungi and funguses), but is much more common in
Arabic.
4 Notice that unlike most of the other words here, شوارع
1 doesn't have a tanwīn ending. Such words are called
diptotes, and will be covered in Basic Arabic Grammar: Part B. For now, treat such words like any other, except
that they must never have a tanwīn ending. You will also encounter other odd-looking plurals in the vocabulary
lists (e.g. Lضأرا
1 in Chapter 3 and ىO
رق
1 in Chapter 10); these words should of course be learnt, but will be dealt
with in Basic Arabic Grammar: Part B.
5 Many Arabic adjectives have plurals. This is needed for agreement between nouns and adjectives (see Chapter 7).

.
14. The teacher is tall and the student is short.
15. The book is small and new, and the chapter is short and beautiful.
6 This should be translated as if it were: 'The chair is big and old and broken.' As a general rule, in Arabic we use و
1
to separate items in a list like the three predicates in this example, where in English we would use commas.

10. 2 Adjectives and Definiteness Agreement
A Adjectival Agreement
There are two things we must remember about adjectives in Arabic:
Firstly, they come after the nouns that they describe, unlike in English, where they occur before the
nouns. So, whereas in English we would say 'a narrow sword', in Arabic we say 'a sword narrow':
قH
يض سيف
1 .
Secondly, the adjective must agree with the noun it describes in four ways:
1. Definiteness
If the noun is definite, its adjective must also be definite; if the noun is indefinite, its
adjective must also be indefinite.
2. Gender
[See Chapter 3]
3. Case
[See Chapter 4]
4. Number
[See Chapters 6 and 7]
This chapter will focus on definiteness agreement. Consider the following phrases, in which the
adjectives agree with their nouns in being definite or indefinite:
a narrow sword قH
يض سيف
the narrow sword قH
يالض السيف
a clean cup نظيف فنجان
the clean cup النظيف الفنجان
a narrow, ugly, dirty house وسخ قبيح قH
يض بيت
9
11. the narrow, ugly, dirty house الوسخ القبيح قH
يالض البيت
Note that when there is a series of adjectives, as in the last two examples, each one must agree with
its noun in the four ways described above.
B Adjectives in the Nominal Sentence
We can now make our nominal sentences more sophisticated, by giving the subject and/or the
predicate their own adjectives. This is illustrated below:
Consider the following sentences:
The narrow house is clean البيت
قH
يالض
نظيف
The good teacher is short الستاذ
الحسن
قصير
The ugly garden is hot and dirty البستان
القبيح
%
رحا
و
وسخ
C Forming Questions
By putting the particle هل
1 or the particle أ
1 in front of a statement, we turn that statement into a
question:
YouSRm are tall طويل أنت
Are youSRm tall? ؟ طويل أنت هل
10
is/are
طبيب
حسن الرجل
ويلB
طال
The Nominal
Sentence
(with adjs)
Arabic Example
PREDICATE
+ ADJ.
SUBJECT
+ ADJ.
English Example a good doctor is The tall man
12. He is short قصير هو
Is he short? ؟ قصير هو أ
The narrow house is clean البيت
قH
يالض
نظيف
Is the narrow house clean7
? البيت هل
قH
يالض
؟ نظيف
The good teacher is short قصير الحسن ستاذI
لا
Is the good teacher short? هل
؟ قصير الحسن ستاذI
لا
In response to such questions, the word for 'yes' is نعم
1 , and the word for 'no' is ل
1 .
Questions are fully covered in Chapter 19.
7 When we put the particle هل
1 in front of a word which begins with a connecting hamzah, such as ال
1 , we
encounter the double-sukūn problem: the ل of هل
1 and the ل of ال
1 both have a sukūn, and they are consecutive
letters (remember, we're ignoring the connecting hamzah). To make the word pronounceable, we have to give the
first ل a kasrah, which turns it into: هل
1 . This is the default way to avoid double-sukūns: change the first sukūn to
a kasrah.
