Differentiated Learning Exemplars for
Students’ Academic Achievement in English
Grade 9
This research evaluated and assessed the learning competency level of the respondents in English and the
different determinants that hinder their learning capability in English. It utilized descriptive survey method
during the conduct of the study. To determine the subjects of the study, universal sampling techniques was
utilized. In addition, respondents’ socio economic status and learning preferences were also investigated. To
answer the socio economic status, a tool was used that was adopted from the Bureau of Census and National
Statistics quoted from the study of Pansit (2018) on “Enhanced MTB Strategic Intervention Materials for
Reading” is used with a statistical treatment on simple percentage. It was found out that education level of
respondents’ parents is in Elementary level with a percentage 63.16% which means that parents could not provide
an appropriate academic information to their children .Meanwhile, in determining, learning styles of the
respondents, adopted questionnaire from the study of Ocampo (2018) on Pedagogical Exemplars in Mathematics
Across Learning Styles utilizing weighted mean. It found out, that the highest ranked of learners’ learning style is
visual which has a weighted mean of 2.36. This is a great manifestation that learners learned best if lessons were
presented interestingly and visually given. Visuals that are chunked into bit of ideas for easier understanding.
Hence this increases student's interest in the subject matter. Meanwhile, it was revealed that, the over-all learning
competency level of the respondents, is in below average. This implies that more exposure of exercises must be
done for the learners to gain mastery of these learning competencies. Therefore, it is encouraged to craft
differentiated learning exemplars fitted to their learning styles and engage them on the different exercises for the
improvement of their academic performance.

Global Education Patterns
The Concept of Globalization
Globalization started in economics but spread to many parts of our lives, like how we work, live, and share ideas. It's like a big change that has affected the whole world, making things different in the way we do stuff.
Cogburn (2000) posits that globalization encompasses profound structural transformations in the production and distribution processes within the global economy. Globalization, a fundamental concept influencing economic, social, and cultural policies, has sparked debates on its merits and drawbacks.
Globalization doesn't just affect buying and making things, or services that everyone uses, like schools. It also changes the way people live and what they value. Often, it makes local cultures similar to a standardized global culture, which can be a lot for them to handle (Kuehn, 1999).
Factors Leading Globalization
Globalization is shaping the world order, affecting social, political, and economic structures. English, used as a first or second language in nearly 100 countries, has become a universal language in media, computer, and trade. Other leading factors of globalization include:
• Increasing global communication via fiber optics, satellite and computer technology
• Integrated and coordinated product design, production, sale
• Increasing numbers of free trade agreements at international level
• Advancement of regulations and standards for trade, finance, work, product and services in whole world
• Financial markets’ giving services during 24 hours everyday
• Increasing numbers of foreign investments in many countries and increasing effects of foreign control on workers (Deniz, 1999).
Benefits of Globalization
1. Conceptual Shifts
2. Information-Intensive Economy
3. Challenges in Education
4. Interdisciplinary Approach
5. Symbol Manipulation Skills
6. Independent Thinking
7. Scientific and Technical Training
8. Addressing Information Age Challenges
9. Exchange of Ideas
10. Technological Integration
The Aim and the Importance of Global Education
The aims and importance of global education are as follows:
Let those who participate education process gain skills of new cultures
Develop the ability of distinguishing intercultural differences
Assist the people criticizing events from global perspective
Explain how different cultures affect the activities of organizations
Help students realize how attitudes are shaped and how they affect the behaviors
Develop the language and harmony skills of the managers who will work in different cultures
Provide the ability of working together with the people coming from different cultures
Develop the skill of multi-sided thinking by causing them gain the cultural sensitivity and experience
Teach how to behave according to cultural differences
Develop the way of thinking from individuality to globosity (Deniz, 1999).

Contract cheating in Canada - exploring legislative options 2021-10University of Calgary
Slides from our webinar in which we offered an introductory discussion about the commercial contract cheating industry (e.g., term paper mills, homework completion services, and paid imposters who take exams on behalf of students). One question people often ask is, “Why aren’t these services illegal?” The short answer is: Academic cheating services are not currently illegal in Canada, but they are in other countries. In this session we’ll provide an overview of which countries have successfully enacted legislation against predatory industry that profits from academic misconduct. We will provide an overview of the legal structures in Canada that might facilitate or present barriers to such legislation being enacted in this country. We do not promise answers or solutions to the complex issue of contract cheating, but instead provide an evidence-base for deeper discussion.
The intended audience for this session is primarily for those in Canada interested in contract cheating from the Canadian legal context. Participants from other regions are also welcome.
By the end of this session engaged participants will be able to:
Describe what contract cheating is
Understand how legislation against contract cheating has been enacted in other countries
Discover legal aspects of contract cheating in Canada and beyond
Facilitators: Alicia Adlington, Dr. Sarah Eaton, PhD

Presented by the co-chairs of the Alberta Council on Academic Integrity working group on contract cheating, Sarah Elaine Eaton and Sheryl Boisvert. In this webinar we talked about contract cheating in Alberta. We discussed essay mills, homework completion services, unethical tutoring services, and thesis consultation services that all cross the line into academic misconduct. Participants learned about the size and scope of this predatory industry and how it preys on our students, including engaging in blackmail and extortion.

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
