The document is a report submitted by a group of students for their Introduction to Business module assignment on organizing a charity drive to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Welfare Association. The group sold homemade Malaysian foods and drinks including taufu fah, soya bean, grass jelly, popiah and chickpeas. They raised a total of RM2594.45 for the charity. The main competitors were another student group selling seaweed-wrapped popiah and a group sponsored by a popular ice cream brand.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.
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. Executive Summary
In groups of 4, Foundation in Natural and Built Environments students who
took the Introduction to Business module were involved in an annual charity
drive. The purpose of this assignment is to raise funds for a charity
organization.This gives us an opportunity to run a business venture and
also to gain experiences about how a business is run throughout a week.
Our team decided to raise funds by selling homemade foods and drinks
made by ourselves and of course to find a sponsor. Our products we
decided on was taufu fah, soya bean, grass jelly, popiah and kacang kuda
(chickpeas). We chose food and beverage as our products because our
products is more unique and students can seldom find them in our
university.
All profits will be donated to the Breast Cancer Welfare Association
(BCWA), a selfhelp support group. Its members comprise of breast cancer
survivors, family members of breast cancer patient, related professionals
and interested persons. The mission of BCWA rests on the philosophy that
a volunteer or a breast cancer survivor uses her experience to help other
women recovering from with breast cancer. We chose this charity
organizations because breast cancer is very commonly known among
Malaysians but not many people actually understands about it.
A total of RM 2594.45 was raised by our team, Girl Power for BCWA.

➢ 5th floor, Bangunan Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah, 16 Jalan
Utara, 46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia
➢ +60 37954 0133
The reason we decided to donate to BCWA is because breast cancer is
very commonly known among Malaysians but not many understand the risk
and the actual reason of the pink ribbons.
The pink ribbon evokes traditional feminine gender roles, caring for other
people, being beautiful, being good, and being cooperative. The pink ribbon
represents fear of breast cancer, hope for the future, and the charitable
goodness of people and businesses who publicly support the breast cancer
movement. It is intended to evoke solidarity with women who currently have
breast cancer. And since we are all girls in this group, why not support
women?

3. Target Market
● Students
Most students in Taylor’s Lakeside University come early for morning
classes due to the limited parking spaces and do not have time for their
breakfast. Most of them would usually buy some convenient food such as
waffle and snacks from the vending machine. Most stalls in campus sell
foods that are packaged, students can just come and buy it and go for their
class, which is very convenient for them to do so. Judging by the fact that
there are a lot of students would spend their money on luxury stuff such as
Starbucks, Chatime etc., we believe that students in Taylor’s University
have high spending power.
● Friends
We promoted about what we are doing and what we are going to sell on
social medias like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, our friends would
know about this charity drive and support us. And because it is easier to
communicate with them about our products compare with strangers,
therefore it would also be easier to persuade them to buy our products. The
purpose of our charity drive is to earn profit in order help our charity
organization, so we would emphasize this fact to persuade our friends to
support our charity organization. Most of them have normal spending
power.

4. Competition Analysis
Our competitors are of course the other groups in our business class that
were also involved in the same charity drive as us, but the two of our main
competitors were:
1) Hazel Ong’s Group
They were also selling homemade popiah like us but with seaweed wrap
like the Hosaka Japanese Snack Food in Sunway Pyramid. Besides that,
they also sold homemade cookies and few sliced fruits.
We were worried that no one would buy our popiahs as we heard quite a
number of customers claiming that the other group’s popiah had seaweed
and our popiah tasted a little too dry and plain.
● Strengths: Wide varieties of food.
● Weaknesses: Nonhalal and this would decrease the amount of
customers they would get.

8.
2) Khoo Zer Kai’s Group
Pretty sure that this group is the strongest among all and is most of the
other group’s competitor. This group was sponsored by Softsrve ice cream,
one of the most famous sensation in Subang. As you can see from the
picture above, their booth were crowded and people were lining up
throughout the five days of charity drive.
● Strengths: They did not have to walk
around with trays of what they are selling to
ask others if they are interested or not,
instead, people come over and ask if they
are ready to sell.
● Weaknesses: They sell out really fast
and sometimes the voltage needed to freeze
the ice cream in the ice cream machine is
not enough.

5. Product & Packaging
5.1 Products
The products that our group sold was tau fu fah, soya bean, chickpeas,
popiah and grass jelly. All these products are homemade with fresh
ingredients which would bring back childhood memories.
The actual reason we chose to sell these food is because we think these
are suitable for breakfast and there are no authentic homemade taufoofah,
soya bean, popiah or kacang kuda around campus unlike the powder made
pudding like taufoofah available from SugarKid.

10.
● Tau Fu Fah (priced RM5 per pack)
It is a homemade taufoo fah sponsor by an aunty in the morning market at
PJS 7 . It is an Asian delicacy made from tofu, a very smooth and soft kind
of pudding, usually served with white sugar and also brown sugar. It can be
eaten warm or chilled. Customers would definitely buy this because this
traditional taufoo fah is rather rare to find in a modern era like nowadays.
● Soya Bean (priced RM5 per bottle)
The aunty also sponsored us the homemade soya bean that we sold. It is a
traditional food uses of soybeans include soy milk, and from the latter tofu
and tofu skin as well. Soybean is good for all of us because it is full of
antioxidants such as vitamin E and B complex, which will help to restore
the radiance of our skin.

11.
● Chickpeas (priced RM3 per cup)
In malay, it is known as kacang kuda. It has a delicious nutlike taste and a
texture that is buttery, yet somehow starchy and pasty. Eating chickpeas
provides you with a vegetarianfriendly source of protein, Also, it is a rich
source of dietary fiber which will help keep your colon healthy. We serve
these chickpeas fresh and hot from the steamer and that is what makes
customers to keep buying them.
● Popiah (priced RM6 per tray)
It is fresh spring rolls we made ourselves. We serve A vegetable popiah
that full of vegetables such as carrot, cucumber, mengkuang and others.
The popiah skin is a soft, thin paperlike crepe or pancake made from
wheat flour. It was a good choice for our customer as our popiah can take
as lunch and it was a healthy food to choose with as there are many
vegetables inside the popiah.
10
12.
● Grass Jelly (priced RM3 per cup)
Grass jelly was also freshly made by
ourselves. It is traditionally made with an
herbal grass jelly, water and simple sugar
syrup. Grass jelly is made from an herbal plant
which have special healthful effect of cooling
the body. The solidified grass jelly can be cut
up and served warm or cold in a syrup.
5.2 Packaging
In order to reduce cost and wastage, we used recycled plastic containers
and plastic bottles to package all of our products. We also used the pink
ribbons that BCWA gave us and stick them on our products as seen in the
picture below.
We decided to use transparent plastic containers instead of paper cups is
because we think that the product itself is the main attraction and eye
catching to most of the people who walk past our booth.
11
13.
6. Pricing
The selling price of our products are as follow:
> 2 popiahs for RM6 in a tray, chickpeas RM3 per cup, grass jelly RM3 per
cup, soya bean RM5 per bottle, taufoofah RM5 per container.
For the soya bean and taufu fah, we decided to have a promotion where
you can get 2 taufoofah or 2 soya bean or even one taufoofah and one
soya bean for RM8.
Cost Price Selling Price Units Revenue
Popiah (2 per tray) RM 2.70 RM 6 67 RM 402
Chickpeas RM 1 RM 3 41 RM 123
Soya Bean (sponsored) RM 5 132 RM 660
Taufoofah (sponsored) RM 5 108 RM 540
Cincau RM 0.50 RM 3 20 RM 60
Promotion (sponsored) RM 8 52 RM 208
Total revenue RM 1993
From the table, the cost prices of popiah and chickpeas are RM2.70 and
RM1 respectively. Thus, with the sales prices of RM6 for popiah and RM3
for chickpeas, we are able to generate a revenue that is on average of 2.22
times the cost price of popiah and a 3 times the cost price of chickpeas.
Our taufoofah and soya bean are sponsored by the aunty. Since the aunty
is also selling the taufoofah and soya bean at the market at a price of RM2
per bottle, so we decided to sell it for RM5 per bottle during the charity
drive.
12
14.
7. Promotion
● Social Network
A Facebook page was created to show
our group poster, menu and others to the
public before the charity drive. Other than
that, posts were also done on Instagram
to increase publicity. We would always
update our new information through
Facebook and Instagram.
13
15.
● Poster
An A3 poster and A4 sized menu was designed by Cynthia Fong using
Adobe Photoshop and printed. This is to allow passersby can have a quick
glance of what we were selling and the price of our food and beverage also
shown in the poster.
With this A3 poster, we hope that they would stop to read and donate. The
quote ‘cancer messed with the wrong girl.’ to help attract everyone’s
attraction.

8. Sponsors
We have approached a few individuals and corporate for sponsorship as to
support BCWA and our charity drive.
Individuals
1. Audrey Ting and family RM 100
2. Cynthia Fong and family RM 200
Corporate
> WOW Family Karaoke Snooker & Lounge
The reason we approach them for funding our
charity drive is because we know them
personally and they are financially generous.
We contacted the individuals by telephone
calls and face to face meeting, corporate by
sponsorship letter and telephone calls.
In addition, WOW Family Karaoke Snooker
and Lounge is willing to sponsor us an amount of RM 800 in total and
packaging needed for our products such as plastic cups and small plastic
containers. The money was handed to us in cash.
15
17.
9. Distribution
The products we sold were homemade popiah, chickpeas, soya bean, and
taufu fah. We had to wake up early in the morning during the charity drive
to prepare and finish the popiah and chickpeas before 8am because they
have to be freshlymade. After finishing our popiah and chickpeas, we will
have to drive to Cynthia’s house to get the taufoofah and soya bean.
Customers can order our product online as we did promote our products on
social media such as Instagram and Facebook. We also started selling our
products a few days before the charity drive at the open space outside the
library.
During the week of charity drive, customers came to our stall just in front of
the Student Life Centre to buy our homemade food or to make a donation.
Customers do not have to wait for our products as we already packaged
and prepared them nicely and it is just a fivesecondsmatter to put it in a
plastic bag for the customers. We also walked around the campus to ask
for donation and sell our products during lunch hours at studios and in front
of lecture halls for students’ or lecturers’ conveniences.
10. Green Measures
As all of our products are food and beverage, relatively few environmental
waste is produced. Only for the recycled plastic packaging for our products,
everything else is environmentallyfriendly. Other than that, we reduced the
carbon footprint by carpooling when we go SS15 to buy our ingredient for
popiah.
Besides that, electricity is only used to power the steamer. The steamer we
had is for the chickpeas, as mentioned before, we serve warm and fresh
chickpeas.

11. Human Resource Planning
According Lecture 4.1 of our Introduction to Business class, organizing is a
component of the management process would improve productivity and the
communication within a certain group or business becomes more efficient.
Hence, a clear job scope is important to direct and guide each member to
do their respective roles and the workload will be evenly divided.
