The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

8. Alfonso XIII was the last king of the Spanish Restoration. He
was the son of Alfonso XII and was proclaimed king in 1902.
During his reign, there were serious social and political conflicts
in Spain. For example:
- Strikes. Labour unions organized them to get
better job conditions for workers.
- Nationalism. Groups in Catalonia,
the Basque Country and Galicia
demanded autonomy.
- The war in Morocco. Many Spanish
soldiers died and Spain lost territories
in the north of Africa. That area was
controlled by the Spanish army.

10. Taking advantage of the social and political conflict, General
Primo de Rivera led a coup in 1923. In a coup, a person or a group
takes control of a government by force.
Primo de Rivera established a military dictatorship. He assumed all
powers of state, abolished the Constitution, banned all political
parties and labour unions, and limited freedom for citizens. King
Alfonso XIII supported the dictatorship, but he was not part of the
government.
Primo de Rivera won the war with Morocco, and many roads,
railways and other public works were built under his rule. However,
the population opposed his dictatorship and wanted more
freedom. In 1930, Alfonso XIII stopped supporting Primo de Rivera
so the dictator had to resign.
General elections were held in 1931. The republican parties won,
and Alfonso XIII went into exile.

25. The first years of the
dictatorship were difficult.
People who had supported
the Republic faced harsh
repression. Many were arrested
or killed, and others went into
exile.
During these years, Spain
became internationally isolated.
As a result of the Spanish
dictatorship, many countries
broke off diplomatic and
commercial relations with Spain.

consequences do you think Spain could have because of this isolation?

think they belong to?
- Why do they need
these services?
- Are these organizations

27. Franco’s dictatorship started in 1939 and Spain was not
accepted by other countries at the beginning. However, from
the 1950’s, Spain started to become accepted internationally.
During this period, many agreements were signed with
different countries, including the United States of America. In
1955, Spain was accepted as a member of the United Nations
(UN).
From 1960, the economy started to improve: industrial
production increased, agriculture was modernized with new
machinery and new infrastructure was developed. Tourism
became one of the main economic activities. In Andalusia the
tourism in La Costa del Sol became very important.
As a result of these changes, life became better in our country.
Read, think and discuss.

escalated.
Labour unions were still banned, but they started to organize
underground, which means they met in secret.
In addition, students participated in demonstrations that
demanded a democratic form of government.
On 20th November, 1975, General Franco died and the
dictatorship ended. It was the beginning of a new era in which
democracy was established.
