A successful foreign language instruction program must effectively engage learners in ways that personalize and enliven the curriculum while motivating students to apply their learning to the real world. The learning environment is a key factor in determining the efficacy of learning, and as such it must be optimized. In this session, participants will discuss strategies for building a warm and active online community through welcome letters, discussion forums and group activities for collaborative learning. We will also focus on how to write an online course syllabus, and review the use of online assessment tools in online teaching.

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.

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

1. Best Practices in Student Master Shell Design and Next Steps with Orientation Barbara Thoeming, Jack Hawkins, Douglas Renfro and Scott Bane
2. What are the necessary components? Course and navigation information Content / Lessons in consistent format Interaction tools / Collaboration Feedback Assessment
3. Course Information This section should contain the syllabus, policies, procedures, and navigation information. The Course Information area should remain consistent throughout the system so students know where to go to get this information in any course.
5. Content and Lessons Separate content into manageable pieces Content Folders to group/chunk information and lessons Are tools incorporated into the lessons to make content more interactive? Fonts and colors should be consistent Don’t overload the screen! Keep it clean. Images are important in helping students visualize concepts.
8. Instructional Methods and Tools Online Cooperative learning and collaboration - Projects, multimedia presentations, wikis, blogs web conferencing, discussion boards Modeling - Video clips that show a process in action or being taught, powerpoint presentations Discussions - Discussion board, blogs, emails, chat, web conferencing as well as journals for reflective interaction with instructor Hot Spot quizzes, self tests, and drills to help with remembering information Lectures - podcasts, web conferencing, narrated Powerpoint Simulations - animations, video Tutorials
9. Interaction and Collaboration Interaction with content Interaction with peers Interaction with the instructor and/or tutor Collaboration can take place in a Collaborate room, through chat, discussion boards, etc. but is an important component of k12 learning
10. Feedback Students need to know where they stand on their work. Provide clear, concise feedback using the comment area of the assessment. Emails and/or phone calls can be used to discuss assignments when necessary. Track student progress each week to determine if a student is working appropriately or not. If not, communicate concerns and intervene. Online students need to be monitored closely to help them reach success in an online environment. Respond to student emails, calls, etc within 24 hours. If communication is received on a weekend or holiday, it should be returned on the first business day you return. Use a virtual classroom, such as Collaborate, to provide more direct interaction and feedback with students.
11. Assessment Assessments should be varied just as they are in the brick and mortar classroom. essays hot spot quizzes blogs journals projects discussions casestudies research short answer tests as well as multiple choice answer tests collaborative assignments portfolios
12. Dashboard Everything that has been covered to this point is firmly researched based. In Metro Nashville we have recently been adding an additional component. This is the heads up page for each course that the students are enrolled. The teacher has some flexibility in determining what information will be displayed on this page.
13. Orientation Talking Points Focus on size and course length Focus on design and ease of use Work toward an orientation that can provide the best of these three: Mobile: can pieces be viewed and accessed from any device? Social: is there an student-to-student bonding and learning element? On Demand: is it a go-to resource for ongoing training and help?
14. Size and Course Length Searching for the balance of rich, effective content and a fast enough pace to keep it from being drudgery We like 1 hour to 90 minutes at most for core concepts
15. Essential Content Our primary purpose is to equip students to have the best experience possible and limit the challenges of the new medium. Navigation best practices Create the proper expectation Encourage practice Provide a show-then-do format to working with course tools
20. Search for a fit to the audience Seems obvious but we’ve developed our third design based on student feedback For most students this is their first impression ever of the online classroom Design starts as graphical elements but quickly moves into more architectural substance
24. Mobile Angel has a “syndicated content” folder we like to use Makes content pages sharable through RSS Allows simple podcast configuration for audio files Think of the orientation as a way to add overall value to the students’ online learning experience Just link to other useful and engaging apps as you become aware of them Bb Mobile Learn App is excellent for discussions and checking progress
25. Social Provide a venue for students to just “talk” A get to know you group can have a dramatic impact on future engagement Increase their feel that there are “real people” behind the computers Provide opportunities for students to teach and learn from other students Cascading permissions allow you to make students creators of orientation content
26. On Demand You’ll never get every bit of training needed in 1 hour Encourage frequent re-use of the Orientation by making it a storehouse for all your training material Personal repositories allow easy sharing of great material If students are subscribed to a content folder, it’s easy to see when new things arrive Course mail could work just as well

Editor's Notes
Every mobile device that can access web applications (apps) has a Facebook app. It’s just like that NFL mobile commercial… students can access group content from their school PC, home PC, phone or tablet.
