The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non-governmental organization founded in 1912 by the film industry to be responsible for the national classification and censorship of films in the United Kingdom. It was established by the film industry to self-regulate censorship rather than have government censorship. Its legal basis comes from the 1909 Cinematograph Act which required cinema licenses but courts later ruled licensing criteria did not need to be restricted to health and safety issues alone.

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.

1. BBFC Research
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), before 1985 known as British
Board of Film Censors, is a non-governmental organisation, founded by the film
industry in 1912 and responsible for the national classification and censorship of
films within the United Kingdom.
Members of the film industry, who would rather manage their own censorship,
than have national or local government do it for them, established the BBFC in
1912 as the British Board of Film Censors. It began operating on 1 January 1913.
Its legal basis was the Cinematograph Act 1909, which required cinemas to have
licences from local authorities. The Act was introduced for safety reasons after a
number of nitrate film fires in unsuitable venues (fairgrounds and shops that had
been hastily converted into cinemas) but the following year a court ruling
determined that the criteria for granting or refusing a licence did not have to be
restricted to issues of health and safety.

After researching these certifications we have decided to classify our
film as a 15. This is because most films in the film noir genre would
fit into the 15 and 18 categories. As drugs may possibly be included,
although only talked about, and since it includes elements of violence
and crime it made us come to the conclusion that our film would be
classified as a 15.

Films under this
category do not have
limitation on the foul
language that is used.
Hard drugs are
generally allowed, and
explicit sex references
along with detailed
sexual activity are also
allowed. Scenes of
strong real sex may be
permitted if justified by
the context. Very
strong, gory, and/or
sadistic violence is
usually permitted.
Strong sexual violence
is permitted unless it is
eroticized or
excessively graphic.
