Religious and Imperial Transformations
The Protestant Reformation influenced the ideas of people that would travel to North America:
What were Martin Luther’s critiques?
Explore what these three terms mean: Protestantism, Calvinism, and Anglicanism.
What was the Catholic Counter-Reformation?
I. Religious and Imperial Transformations
A. The Protestant Reformation
1. Martin Luther’s critiques—Arguing that faith led to salvation, Luther launched a critique of the Catholic Church, whose leaders had embraced indulgent materialism as a path to salvation. Luther’s philosophies gained the attention of a wide audience.
2. Protestantism, Calvinism, and Anglicanism—Luther’s followers became known as Protestants; his teachings appealed to literate middle-class Europeans. John Calvin created his own version of Protestantism based on the theory of predestination, or the notion that God had determined salvation at the beginning of time and that humans could not control their destinies. Anglicanism, or the Church of England, was established in the 1530s by King Henry VIII when the pope refused to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.
3. Catholic Counter-Reformation—In an effort to stamp out the growth of Protestantism, the Catholic Church, along with governments in Spain and France, sought to reform the corrupt practices bishops and priests engaged in and founded seminaries to generate new confidence in the church.
4. Impact of religious turmoil—Europeans of both Catholic and Protestant faiths encouraged the spread of their beliefs across the Atlantic, and struggles at home sent religious minorities seeking religious freedom in North America. Conflicts in Europe generated growth in the Americas.
As the Reformation took shape, Spain established centers of control and trade in North America
As Reformation gets going in Europe…Spanish lay claims to North America.

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.

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.

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.

4. Objectives
Students should know:
The economic reasons Europeans colonized North
America.
The religious reasons Europeans colonized North
America.
5. The First Voyage to the First
Settlements
In 1492, the Spanish
explorer, Christopher
Columbus, set off from
Spain to North America
in order to trade, sell,
and buy goods.
Virginia’s settlements
began in 1587.
Maryland was founded
in 1632.
6. Virginia
Many Europeans
immigrated to North
America so that they could
own their own land and
start farms.
The Virginia settlement
used tobacco as a “cash
crop” to help keep the
colony alive.
Many of the farmers had
“indentured servants” who
worked for them to pay off
their ticket to North
America from Europe.
7. Maryland
Religious freedom was
another big reason Europeans
wanted to come to North
America.
Maryland was the first
settlement that tolerated all
Christian faiths and became
very popular with the
Catholics.
Indentured servants were also
used throughout Maryland.
This lead to many of the
settlers being young males
which caused not as many
settlers having families.
