1) A convention of interviews is using a mid or medium close up shot of the interviewee at eye level with the camera so the audience can see them and some of the background. The background should be relevant to the subject or documentary.
2) Another convention is using the "rule of thirds" where the interviewee is positioned just off center and looking at the interviewer rather than the camera, giving them space to speak.
3) Conventions of editing include removing the interviewer's questions so it seems the interviewee is speaking freely, and using cutaways and archive footage to cover jump cuts.

An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

2. Cinematography
One convention of an interview is the shot which is used, normally during
interviews either a mid or a medium close up is used. This is so that the
interviewee is at eye level with the camera and so that the audience can still see
some of the background. For example this image shows a mid shot of the
interviewee, showing the background. This also means that another convention is
that the background has to be relevant to either the subject or the documentary
itself. In this shot the background is some posters of the film the Jaws which is
relevant as the documentary is about Jaws.
Another cinematography convention is that rule of thirds are used. This is
when the interviewee is positioned just off centre and looking at the
interviewer instead of the camera. By using the rule of thirds it means that
the interviewee has space to talk into. This image of the left shows that the
interviewee is at eye level and is using the rule of thirds which is a
convention.
3. Editing
One main conventions of interviews is that the questions that are asked by the interviewer are
edited out after filming. This is so that it looks like the interviewee is talking freely about the
subject of the documentary and not like they are being prompt by question. Another
convention is that cutaways and archive footage are used to cover jump cuts in the editing
process. These cutaways and archive material has to be relevant to the to type of documentary.
For example, this printscreen for the documentary ‘Simpsons 20th Anniversary’ shows the band
that play the theme song of The Simpsons doing a concert.
4. Mise-en-Scene
One of the main convention of the mise-en-scene in interviews is that
the background in an interview has to be relevant to either the
subject or the topic that the documentary is about. For example in
this screenshot it shows that they are interviewing the creator of
Family Guy, and to make sure that the background is relevant they
have put posters of Family Guy in the back to conform to this
convention.
Depending on the content of the documentary either high key or low key lighting is used, for example if
there was a documentary on fears then they would used low key lighting as this would work well with the
themes. However, in both these documentary for example the ‘In the teeth of Jaws’ and ‘Simpsons 20th
Anniversary’ they both use high key lighting as this goes with there theme. Another convention, is that
when the interviewee is being interviewed they are sat down in a chair, this is so that they look more
relaxed and it is easier to get a steady and clear shot of the interviewee.
5. Graphics
One of the conventions of graphics in interviews
is that when the person who is being
interviewed shows up the name and role/ job is
also shown. This is only shown once when the
interviewee is first seen on screen. The
conventions of having these graphics is that they
the name of the interviewee is in a larger font
than the role of the occupant. This is due to the
fact that the name is more important and
relevant to the audience. The font of these
names also has to be relevant, for example this
printscreen of the Simpsons 20th Anniversary
shows the font is the same to the Simpsons
titles.
