Vast amounts of survey data are collected for many purposes, including governmental information, public opinion and election surveys, advertising and market research as well as scientific research
Survey data underlie many public policy and business decisions
Good quality data reduces the risk of poor policies and decisions and is of crucial importance
StatJR is a software system that can interoperate with other statistical software.
For example there is a StatJR template to fit a regression in many packages including SPSS.
SPSS is often used for training in the social sciences.
We have extended StatJR’s functionality so that it can automatically create ‘bespoke’ SPSS training materials.
A statistical software package written in Python and first released in 2013.
Named after our former colleague Jon Rasbash and pronounced “Stature”.
Stat-JR is meant to appeal to novice users, expert users and other algorithm developers
It has its own MCMC estimation engine built into the software but also allows interoperability with other software packages (this talk).
Has several interfaces including an electronic book interface including “statistical analysis assistant” features (talk 2).
Can also be used to create “bespoke” training materials in combination with the SPSS software package (talk 3).
Random coefficient models
Allowing individual-level relationships to vary across groups
Linking individual and group level explanations – cross level interactions
Two level random intercept models
Comparing groups – the variance components model
Quantifying group differences – the variance partition coefficient
Adding predictors at the individual and group level – the random intercept model

The research combines walking methods and participatory theatre –working with migrant mothers, girls and migrant women with no recourse to public funds - to understand the lives, experiences and sense of belonging and place making – involved in enacting citizenship
to reflect on the social construction of reality
to Identify social structures which lead to oppressions
to try out interventions for social action
to validate participants’ local, subjugated knowledge.
A recursive model is one where all causal effects are uni-directional and disturbances are uncorrelated
A non-recursive model contains one or more ‘feedback loops’ or ‘reciprocal’ effects
1.Establish satisfactory measurement model for key concepts using latent variables
2. Fit regression paths between concepts
These are the ‘structural equations’ which specify how concepts are related to each other
2. Test hypotheses on model parameters
3. Assess model fit
We look at generating research data, engaging participants in dialogue with other social groups
policy makers and practitioners in an integrated way from research, to dissemination.
In these slides, I, Susan Banducci and Iulia Cioroianu from the University of Exeter talk about online data sources and how you use those to answer questions about information exposure.
Community studies have evolved as more sophisticated methods have emerged, as well as in response to criticisms.
One example is the development of on-line research methods to study on-line communities.

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.

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.
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.
