Convention on the Rights of the Child
The Convention on the Rights of the Child is the first legally binding international instrument to incorporate the full range of human rights—civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. In 1989, world leaders decided that children needed a special convention just for them because people under 18 years old often need special care and protection that adults do not. The leaders also wanted to make sure that the world recognized that children have human rights too.
Sciennes has a focus on three UNCRC articles from P1-P7:
The right to learn
The right to be safe
The right to play
Classes focus on other articles when these are relevant to the learning.
Information about child rights in the world. Why it is important to know for a teacher, because of a is the person who develops the personality of a student. Only a teacher can develop the concept in students how they can protect themselves and gets their rights from the socity.

This marks the first time that two expert United Nations committees have joined forces to set out a common interpretation of the obligations on states to ent harmful practices. Th

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.

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
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.

2. INTRODUCTION
What is the UN Convention on the Rights of
the Child?
• The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is a
comprehensive, internationally binding agreement
on the rights of children, which was adopted by the
United Nations General Assembly in 1989. It is the
most widely ratified human rights treaty in history: all
countries have ratified it with the exception of the
United States of America and Somalia.
3. • When countries ratify an international treaty or
convention, such as the UN Convention on the Rights
of the Child, they enter a binding agreement to meet
its provisions and obligations. Ireland signed the UN
Convention on 30 September 1990, and ratified it on
28 September 1992. This means that the Irish State
committed itself to promote, protect and fulfill the
rights of children, as outlined in the UN Convention.
• A child is defined in the UN Convention as a person
under the age of 18 years. The UN Convention
acknowledges the family as the fundamental unit of
society. It stresses the role of parents as the primary
care-givers with responsibility for the up-bringing of
their children and obliges governments to support
parents in fulfilling their essential role.
4. • The UN Convention consists of 41
articles, each of which details a different
type of right. These rights are not ranked
in order of importance; instead they
interact with one another to form one
integrated set of rights. A common
approach is to group these articles
together under the following themes:
5. • Survival rights: include the child’s right to
life and the needs that are most basic to
existence, such as nutrition, shelter, an
adequate living standard, and access to
medical services.
6. • Development rights: include the right to
education, play, leisure, cultural
activities, access to information, and
freedom of thought, conscience and
religion.
7. • Protection rights: ensure children are
safeguarded against all forms of abuse,
neglect and exploitation, including
special care for refugee children;
safeguards for children in the criminal
justice system; protection for children in
employment; protection and
rehabilitation for children who have
suffered exploitation or abuse of any
kind.
8. • Participation rights: encompass
children's freedom to express opinions,
to have a say in matters affecting their
own lives, to join associations and to
assemble peacefully. As their capacities
develop, children should have increasing
opportunity to participate in the
activities of society, in preparation for
adulthood.
9. Four General Principles
• that all the rights guaranteed by the Convention must
be available to all children without discrimination of
any kind (Article 2);
• that the best interests of the child must be a primary
consideration in all actions concerning children
(Article 3);
• that every child has the right to life, survival and
development (Article 6); and
• that the child’s views must be considered and taken
into account in all matters affecting him or her
(Article 12).
10. Article 1 (Definition of the child)
The Convention defines a 'child' as a
person below the age of 18, unless the
laws of a particular country set the legal
age for adulthood younger. The
Committee on the Rights of the Child,
the monitoring body for the Convention,
has encouraged States to review the age
of majority if it is set below 18 and to
increase the level of protection for all
children under 18.
11. Article 2 (Non-discrimination)
The Convention applies to all children,
whatever their race, religion or abilities;
whatever they think or say, whatever type
of family they come from. It doesn’t matter
where children live, what language they
speak, what their parents do, whether they
are boys or girls, what their culture is,
whether they have a disability or whether
they are rich or poor. No child should be
treated unfairly on any basis.
12. Article 3
(Best interests of the child)
The best interests of children must be
the primary concern in making decisions
that may affect them. All adults should
do what is best for children. When
adults make decisions, they should think
about how their decisions will affect
children. This particularly applies to
budget, policy and law makers.
13. Article 4 (Protection of rights)
Governments have a responsibility to take all available
measures to make sure children’s rights are respected,
protected and fulfilled. When countries ratify the
Convention, they agree to review their laws relating to
children. This involves assessing their social services, legal,
health and educational systems, as well as levels of funding
for these services. Governments are then obliged to take all
necessary steps to ensure that the minimum standards set
by the Convention in these areas are being met. They must
help families protect children’s rights and create an
environment where they can grow and reach their
potential. In some instances, this may involve changing
existing laws or creating new ones. Such legislative changes
are not imposed, but come about through the same
process by which any law is created or reformed within a
country. Article 41 of the Convention points out the when a
country already has higher legal standards than those seen
in the Convention, the higher standards always prevail.
14. Article 5 (Parental guidance)
Governments should respect the rights and
responsibilities of families to direct and guide their
children so that, as they grow, they learn to use their
rights properly. Helping children to understand their
rights does not mean pushing them to make choices
with consequences that they are too young to handle.
Article 5 encourages parents to deal with rights issues
"in a manner consistent with the evolving capacities
of the child". The Convention does not take
responsibility for children away from their parents
and give more authority to governments. It does place
on governments the responsibility to protect and
assist families in fulfilling their essential role as
nurturers of children.
15. Article 6 (Survival and development)
Children have the right to live.
Governments should ensure that children
survive and develop healthily.
16. Article 7 (Registration, name,
nationality, care)
All children have the right to a legally
registered name, officially recognized
by the government. Children have the
right to a nationality (to belong to a
country). Children also have the right to
know and, as far as possible, to be
cared for by their parents.
17. Article 8 (Preservation of identity)
Children have the right to an identity –
an official record of who they are.
Governments should respect
children’s right to a name, a
nationality and family ties.
18. Article 9 (Separation from parents)
Children have the right to live with
their parent(s), unless it is bad for
them. Children whose parents do not
live together have the right to stay in
contact with both parents, unless this
might hurt the child.
19. Article 10 (Family reunification)
Families whose members live in
different countries should be allowed
to move between those countries so
that parents and children can stay in
contact, or get back together as a
family.
20. Article 11 (Kidnapping)
Governments should take steps to stop
children being taken out of their own
country illegally. This article is
particularly concerned with parental
abductions. The Convention’s Optional
Protocol on the sale of children, child
prostitution and child pornography has
a provision that concerns abduction for
financial gain.
21. Article 12
(Respect for the views of the child)
When adults are making decisions that affect children, children have
the right to say what they think should happen and have their
opinions taken into account. This does not mean that children can
now tell their parents what to do. This Convention encourages
adults to listen to the opinions of children and involve them in
decision-making -- not give children authority over adults. Article 12
does not interfere with parents' right and responsibility to express
their views on matters affecting their children. Moreover, the
Convention recognizes that the level of a child’s participation in
decisions must be appropriate to the child's level of maturity.
Children's ability to form and express their opinions develops with
age and most adults will naturally give the views of teenagers
greater weight than those of a preschooler, whether in family, legal
or administrative decisions.
22. Article 12
(Respect for the views of the child)
When adults are making decisions that
affect children, children have the right
to say what they think should happen
and have their opinions taken into
account.
23. Article 13 (Freedom of expression)
Children have the right to get and share
information, as long as the information is
not damaging to them or others. In
exercising the right to freedom of
expression, children have the responsibility
to also respect the rights, freedoms and
reputations of others. The freedom of
expression includes the right to share
information in any way they choose,
including by talking, drawing or writing.
24. Article 14 (Freedom of thought,
conscience and religion)
Children have the right to think and believe what they want
and to practice their religion, as long as they are not
stopping other people from enjoying their rights. Parents
should help guide their children in these matters. The
Convention respects the rights and duties of parents in
providing religious and moral guidance to their children.
Religious groups around the world have expressed support
for the Convention, which indicates that it in no way
prevents parents from bringing their children up within a
religious tradition. At the same time, the Convention
recognizes that as children mature and are able to form
their own views, some may question certain religious
practices or cultural traditions. The Convention supports
children's right to examine their beliefs, but it also states
that their right to express their beliefs implies respect for
the rights and freedoms of others.
25. Article 15
(Freedom of association)
Article 15 (Freedom of association):
Children have the right to meet
together and to join groups and
organizations, as long as it does not
stop other people from enjoying their
rights. In exercising their rights, children
have the responsibility to respect the
rights, freedoms and reputations of
others.
26. Article 16
(Right to privacy)
Children have a right to privacy. The law
should protect them from attacks against
their way of life, their good name, their
families and their homes.
27. Article 17
(Access to information; mass media)
Children have the right to get information that
is important to their health and well-being.
Governments should encourage mass media –
radio, television, newspapers and Internet
content sources – to provide information that
children can understand and to not promote
materials that could harm children. Mass
media should particularly be encouraged to
supply information in languages that minority
and indigenous children can understand.
Children should also have access to children’s
books.
28. Article 18 (Parental responsibilities;
state assistance)
Both parents share responsibility for
bringing up their children, and should
always consider what is best for each child.
Governments must respect the
responsibility of parents for providing
appropriate guidance to their children –
the Convention does not take
responsibility for children away from their
parents and give more authority to
governments. It places a responsibility on
governments to provide support services
to parents, especially if both parents work
outside the home.
29. Article 19
(Protection from all forms of violence)
Children have the right to be protected from being hurt and
mistreated, physically or mentally. Governments should ensure
that children are properly cared for and protect them from
violence, abuse and neglect by their parents, or anyone else
who looks after them. In terms of discipline, the Convention
does not specify what forms of punishment parents should
use. However any form of discipline involving violence is
unacceptable. There are ways to discipline children that are
effective in helping children learn about family and social
expectations for their behavior – ones that are non-violent, are
appropriate to the child's level of development and take the
best interests of the child into consideration. In most countries,
laws already define what sorts of punishments are considered
excessive or abusive. It is up to each government to review
these laws in light of the Convention.
30. Article 20 (Children deprived of family
environment)
Children who cannot be looked after by
their own family have a right to special
care and must be looked after properly,
by people who respect their ethnic group,
religion, culture and language.
31. Article 21
(Adoption)
Children have the right to care and
protection if they are adopted or in
foster care. The first concern must be
what is best for them. The same rules
should apply whether they are adopted
in the country where they were born, or
if they are taken to live in another
country.
32. Article 22
(Refugee children)
Children have the right to special
protection and help if they are refugees
(if they have been forced to leave their
home and live in another country), as
well as all the rights in this Convention.
33. Article 23
(Children with disabilities)
Children who have any kind of disability
have the right to special care and
support, as well as all the rights in the
Convention, so that they can live full
and independent lives.
34. Article 24 (Health and health services)
Children have the right to good quality
health care – the best health care
possible – to safe drinking water,
nutritious food, a clean and safe
environment, and information to help
them stay healthy. Rich countries should
help poorer countries achieve this.
35. Article 25
(Review of treatment in care)
Children who are looked after by their
local authorities, rather than their
parents, have the right to have these
living arrangements looked at regularly
to see if they are the most appropriate.
Their care and treatment should always
be based on “the best interests of the
child”. (see Guiding Principles, Article 3)
36. Article 26
(Social security)
Children – either through their
guardians or directly – have the right
to help from the government if they
are poor or in need.
37. Article 27
(Adequate standard of living)
Children have the right to a standard of
living that is good enough to meet their
physical and mental needs.
Governments should help families and
guardians who cannot afford to provide
this, particularly with regard to food,
clothing and housing.
38. Article 28
(Right to education)
All children have the right to a primary education,
which should be free. Wealthy countries should help
poorer countries achieve this right. Discipline in
schools should respect children’s dignity. For children
to benefit from education, schools must be run in an
orderly way – without the use of violence. Any form
of school discipline should take into account the
child's human dignity. Therefore, governments must
ensure that school administrators review their
discipline policies and eliminate any discipline
practices involving physical or mental violence, abuse
or neglect. The Convention places a high value on
education. Young people should be encouraged to
reach the highest level of education of which they
are capable.
39. Article 29
(Goals of education)
Children’s education should develop each child’s
personality, talents and abilities to the fullest. It should
encourage children to respect others, human rights and
their own and other cultures. It should also help them
learn to live peacefully, protect the environment and
respect other people. Children have a particular
responsibility to respect the rights their parents, and
education should aim to develop respect for the values
and culture of their parents. The Convention does not
address such issues as school uniforms, dress codes, the
singing of the national anthem or prayer in schools. It is
up to governments and school officials in each country to
determine whether, in the context of their society and
existing laws, such matters infringe upon other rights
protected by the Convention.
40. Article 30 (Children of
minorities/indigenous groups)
Minority or indigenous children have
the right to learn about and practice
their own culture, language and religion.
The right to practice one’s own culture,
language and religion applies to
everyone; the Convention here
highlights this right in instances where
the practices are not shared by the
majority of people in the country.
41. Article 31
(Leisure, play and culture)
Children have the right to relax and play,
and to join in a wide range of cultural,
artistic and other recreational activities.
42. Article 32
(Child labor)
The government should protect children from work
that is dangerous or might harm their health or their
education. While the Convention protects children
from harmful and exploitative work, there is nothing
in it that prohibits parents from expecting their
children to help out at home in ways that are safe
and appropriate to their age. If children help out in a
family farm or business, the tasks they do be safe
and suited to their level of development and comply
with national labor laws. Children's work should not
jeopardize any of their other rights, including the
right to education, or the right to relaxation and
play.
43. Article 33
(Drug abuse)
Governments should use all means
possible to protect children from the
use of harmful drugs and from being
used in the drug trade.
44. Article 34
(Sexual exploitation)
Governments should protect children
from all forms of sexual exploitation and
abuse. This provision in the Convention
is augmented by the Optional Protocol
on the sale of children, child prostitution
and child pornography.
45. Article 35
(Abduction, sale and trafficking)
The government should take all
measures possible to make sure that
children are not abducted, sold or
trafficked. This provision in the
Convention is augmented by the
Optional Protocol on the sale of children,
child prostitution and child pornography.
46. Article 36
(Other forms of exploitation)
Children should be protected from any
activity that takes advantage of them or
could harm their welfare and
development.
47. Article 37
(Detention and punishment)
No one is allowed to punish children in a
cruel or harmful way. Children who break
the law should not be treated cruelly. They
should not be put in prison with adults,
should be able to keep in contact with
their families, and should not be
sentenced to death or life imprisonment
without possibility of release.
48. Article 38
(War and armed conflicts)
Governments must do everything they can to
protect and care for children affected by war.
Children under 15 should not be forced or
recruited to take part in a war or join the
armed forces. The Convention’s Optional
Protocol on the involvement of children in
armed conflict further develops this right,
raising the age for direct participation in
armed conflict to 18 and establishing a ban
on compulsory recruitment for children
under 18.
49. Article 39
(Rehabilitation of child victims)
Children who have been neglected,
abused or exploited should receive
special help to physically and
psychologically recover and reintegrate
into society. Particular attention should
be paid to restoring the health, self-
respect and dignity of the child.
50. Article 40
(Juvenile justice)
Children who are accused of breaking
the law have the right to legal help and
fair treatment in a justice system that
respects their rights. Governments are
required to set a minimum age below
which children cannot be held
criminally responsible and to provide
minimum guarantees for the fairness
and quick resolution of judicial or
alternative proceedings.
51. Article 41 (Respect for superior
national standards)
If the laws of a country provide better
protection of children’s rights than the
articles in this Convention, those laws
should apply.
52. Article 42
(Knowledge of rights)
Governments should make the
Convention known to adults and
children. Adults should help children
learn about their rights, too. (See also
article 4.)
53. Articles 43-54
(implementation measures)
These articles discuss how governments
and international organizations like
UNICEF should work to ensure children
are protected in their rights.
