21st Century Pedagogy: Teachers as Co-Learners & CSRE Approach- the Launching...DrAnsari MQ
Learner autonomy in the context of 21st century pedagogy needs to be redefined. Today’s learners are tech savvy and knowledge is at their fingertips. Teaching and learning profile has changed dramatically. This paradigm shift has narrowed its focus on learners and learning rather than on teachers and teaching; but it doesn’t reduce the role of teachers. On the contrary, teachers and teaching have tactfully withdrawn to peripheral roles letting the floor for learners to flourish.

Two years ago, BCPS decided to make cross-curricular literacy its educational focus. As a result, I was approached by a middle school principals who asked me to create a literacy plan. I had already observed the success of close-reading strategies and had researched the idea of school-wide literacy. I quickly became a proponent of both notions and decided to use them to frame the literacy plan. After the first full year of implementation, overall reading proficiency scores increased over 14 points! I would love to share the GTN-approved initiative with educators from around the state.

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.

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. "Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future."-John F. Kennedy Cassandra Rusie
2. Through my numerous experiences in the classroom, I have developed a philosophy incorporating education and experience. I believe that if students enjoy being in the classroom, then their possibilities for success are endless. I also believe, as a teacher, I must be nurturing, understanding, and motivational in the classroom to obtain optimum results. Please explore my portfolio and look at some of the wonderful experiences I have had in the classroom. I am eager to discuss everything I have discovered about myself and my teaching style. Welcome to my portfolio!
3. About Me I am a Wayne State University graduate I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Secondary Education with grades 6-12 English and History Endorsements I have had the privilege to teach in a variety of settings.

Please click image above to view segment.
9. University Prep – Community Outreach One of the key components of University Prep’s “Big Picture” model is the Learning Through Internship (LTI) program. Each teacher assists each student in securing a mentor from a job field he or she is interested in. Every one of my 17 students had an internship, a rare feat at University Prep. I planned and organized a large group outing to see how a city operates. See pictures from that LTI experience HERE.

20. Teaching and Learning Statement Students need to learn and experience. Experience and education need each other to thrive. Students take accountability for their education. It is my role as teacher to guide students as they take an active role in their learning. I will engage my students in discussion and encourage them to raise questions. I believe that students will benefit from a variety of assessments. These include written, oral, presentation, and formal testing, among others. Link to Full Teaching and Learning statement
21. Beliefs into Action I will create an environment where students can question their knowledge and be active participants in their education. A student-centered classroom fosters the development of high-level intellectual skills. I believe that learning should be fun. Students should enjoy their lessons and want to learn. Learning to love to learn is the key to students’ success. I am the moderator of interactive lessons where students can make choices about how to complete their assignments. This creates accountability and the life skill of analyzing actions and consequences. I encourage communication among students. Learning is not a solitary activity and the various talents, and experiences of each student are the best educational tools a teacher can have. I think that students learn best when they can relate their lives to the lesson. This includes creating cross-curricular connections between subjects to create a sense of fluidity in their education. Our brains do not contain separate, divided portions, so education should not be either.
22. Beliefs into Action I set high standards for academic achievement and personal conduct. If students have attainable goals to aspire to, then they will work hard to accomplish them. However, if standards are impossible, students will be discouraged and give up. I continuously evolve my teaching methods in order to enhance the quality of education I provide my students. A good teacher is a lifelong learner. I incorporate technology in the classroom. It is vital for me to keep up with the resources my students use daily. Using these tools will help to interest my students of the technology generation with conventional lessons. I take an interest into my students’ personal lives. Life does not stop when they enter the classroom and the baggage they bring with them is crucial to the success or failure of their academic performance. Above all else, I believe in teaching children. No matter what subject matter or grade level, I believe that when children are the focus, it is impossible to fail.
