The document discusses the issues of teenage pregnancy, high school dropout rates, and how child grants may help or exacerbate the problem. It notes that teenage pregnancy has become normalized in some communities, negatively impacting learners and the community as a whole. Students presented findings that teenage pregnancy is caused by various intersecting factors and occurs globally, and that while child grants have been implemented in other places, their impact requires further examination.

Teen Pregnancy
The problem at hand is the issue of teen pregnancy. Teens are young people who have just joined adulthood. The issue seems to be more prevalent in the rural areas. Sexual activities by the teenagers are on the rise this result to young girls getting pregnant. This issue is a big problem to the nursing practitioners in these rural communities; this challenge is intensified by presence of barriers to open discussions concerning teen pregnancy for instance , many rural southern communities social and cultural aspects discourage the open discussions on safe sexual practices it’s like a taboo (Weiss, 2012). The problem is important for healthcare administrators to study for cases of teen pregnancy are associated with increased infant and maternal risk complications and hardships, this settles more on costs related handling such situations. These teens are forced to drop out of school , lead marriages that break easily and in many situation they lead a life of poverty .this affects both the infant and the teen whose skills and ability to bring up a baby are insignificant in case where a concerned grown up does not intervene. Understanding how to handle those situations and challenges will increase the efficiency on service provision units dealing with teen children especially girls at the rural community health centers.
Research purpose
The purpose of this research was to analyze the essays written by high school students to gain insight concerning teen pregnancy rate in the rural community. This will help to establish the contributing factors to the problem of teen pregnancy eliminate barriers to successful discussions on teen pregnancy issue and implement appropriate interventions to manage teen pregnancy problems within the rural communities (Weiss, 2012).

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
