Creating a positive classroom atmosphere requires managing student behavior through positive attitudes. The teacher should be passionate about teaching, provide clear expectations and meaningful lessons, and give encouraging feedback and respect to students. Getting feedback from students through reflection journals allows them to take responsibility for their learning, set goals, and improve. Regular reflection helps students and teachers understand progress and how to enhance the learning experience.

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
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

This presentation provides a briefing on how to upload submissions and documents in Google Classroom. It was prepared as part of an orientation for new Sainik School in-service teacher trainees. As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
2. Classroom Management
• In order to be an effective teacher .. You need
to manage your classroom.. And believe it or
not.. It all begins with YOU.. So.. Here are
some .. Simple ideas.. To make your classroom
a place of learning.. And to ensure a postive
atmosphere.
3. It’s all in your attitude !!
• ““The greatest discovery of all time is that a
person can change his future by merely
changing his attitude .
• Oprah Winfrey
4. BUT first..
• “The remarkable thing is, we have a choice
everyday regarding the attitude we will
embrace for that day.”
• Charles R. Swindoll
5. More Attitude ..
• “We awaken in others the
same attitude of mind we
hold toward them.”
• Elbert Hubbard
6. So change your attitude
• “Adopting the right attitude can convert a
negative stress into a positive one”
• Hans Selye
7. Ten Tips for creating a positive
atmosphere.
• Always have a genuine purpose for your
lesson and a clear agenda.
• Always try to engage your learners with
meaningful material.
• Allow your learners to direct their own
learning.
• Let your pupils know what to expect from you.
• Be passionate about what you are teaching
8. More Tips
• Encourage all the pupils’ efforts.
• Support them along the way with positive
feedback and a SMILE !
• Listen to them and respect their ideas and
opinions even if you don’t agree with them.
• Be a role model.
• Make success about their learning and not
your teaching.
9. AND when things go wrong..
• Re-examine your approach.
• Don’t give up
• Don’t take a bad lesson or day too hard.
11. Getting Feedback from Students
• Students need feedback to learn and get better at
what they are doing – learning.
• By asking students to evaluate their own learning
you are teaching them to take responsibility for the
process of learning.
• There are many ways to get feedback from students
on where they are and if they are satisfied with
where they are.
12. Ways to get Feedback
• Instant feedback – by asking questions , a
show of hands.. Etc..
• Ongoing journals/ logs etc..
• Written feedback pages – formative/
summative
15. Formative Feedback
This type of feedback should be done
during a lesson , a unit or a semester
to find out what is going on and be
able to make a change .
.
16. Take a moment to reflect
• I found the material in the unit interesting
• I completed the work my teacher asked me to.
• I took the work seriously
• I learned something new
• I improved my vocabulary
• I did my best
• I am satisfied with my progress
• I need to work harder/ make more of an
effort.
17. Summative Feedback Pages
• There are other forms of feedback which are
summative . These can be used at the end of
the semester. They should allow the kids to
relate to the teacher, the class , the material
taught and himself as a learner.
18. Sample questions for end of the Year Feedback
• Part ONE: The lessons:
• 1. were interesting – always, often, sometimes, not often
• Part TWO: ME –as a pupil, I.
• 1. made an effort – always, often, sometimes, not often
• 2. did my homework- always, often, sometimes, not often
• PART THREE : THE teacher
• 1. was supportive of me – always, often, sometimes, not
often
• 2. came prepared to class – always, often sometimes , not
often
• 3. treated me fairly – always, often, sometimes, not often
19. Setting Goals
• Goals are powerful tools than can produce
great returns in most areas of a student’s life.
• By setting goals the student chooses where s/
he wants to go and what they want to
achieve.
• They can then concentrate on how to improve
in the areas that they choose.
20. By setting goals:
Students:
• Improve their performance
• Increase their motivation
• Increase pride and satisfaction
• Improve their self- confidence
• Suffer less from stress
21. Remember
• Goals can be set on a weekly basis, a monthly
basis or each semester.
• Teachers need to provide the students with
ample opportunities to set goals and help
them monitor the progress.
22. Reflection Journals
A method to help the teacher
teach responsibility, self
assessment and develop critical
thinking in students.
23. Why Reflect ?
Because learning in schools is
traditionally dominated and
controlled by adults, students
seldom make decisions about their
own learning (Goodlad, 1984).
24. Using Reflections Journals in
English class are useful because
they ..
• Encourage students to take
responsibility for their learning
• Encourage students to think
• Encourage students to set goals
• Encourage natural writing in
English
• Encourage a real dialogue between
teacher and student
26. What Research says..
• When we help students develop an
awareness about their own thinking and
learning processes, we are helping them
think about the effectiveness of the
strategies they use in reaching the goals
they have set. Essentially, they are
"thinking about thinking," a process known
as metacognition. .....monitoring our
progress, and evaluating the results is an
effective way of helping students take
more control of their own thought and
feeling processes (Barell, 1985).
27. • A journal is different from a
diary. Diaries keep track of
what's going on around you.
Journals help you reflect on
what's going on within you.
Keeping a journal is like carrying
on a continuing conversation with
yourself.
28. How to start
• Explain what you want the students to do
• Set aside time once a week in class for the
students to use for writing
• Have the students bring in small notebooks
• Provide the students with “prompts” to get
started..
• Encourage all of them to write..- Make it part
of the class requirement !
29. Possible prompts..
• Write about one positive and one negative
thing that happened in English class this week.
• Write a list of what you remember learning
this week and explain why you remember it .
• Explain what or who helped you learn in class
this week.
• Write about your feelings while doing the test,
the unseen, writing the essay , doing your
homework etc..
30. Questions to reflect on..
• How did the teacher relate to me this week ?
• How did I participate in class this week?
• What did we learn in class this week that was
useful to me? Why ?
• What was especially enjoyable to me this week.
• In what areas do I feel I have improved ?
• What areas do I need to do to improve in..
( writing, reading strategies, listening skills..etc..)
and how will I do this??
31. Why feedback is so important..
• LISTENING to your pupils will build an
atmosphere of trust and respect and
encourage the students to share with you
what they feel.
• It will foster positive classroom behavior
• It will create a classroom culture of success
• It will make both you and the pupils aware of
their progress
32. THE END ..
Or The Beginning..
• Thank you.. For listening,,
for taking part and for
reflecting with us.. AND
Remember..
• “To effectively communicate, we
must realize that we are all
different in the way we perceive
the world and use this
understanding as a guide to our
communication with others.”
• Anthony Robbins
Editor's Notes
Ask the audience why kids should assess themselves?? Ask for ways they get their kids to assess themselves.. ? Discuss the picture !!! Tell them you are going to give some ideas ..
I will discuss a few ways today.. But there are many more.. We must get our students to learn to think about the part they play in the learning process. WE can be great teachers and know our material but if the kids are NOT with us (for a million reasons then we won’t be teaching them anything)
Discuss the importance of Feedback from kids in all ways, shapes and forms. Ask if anyone uses them . HOW.. Say that there are summative and formative.
Ask if they know what formative feeedback is ?? An xample of the beginning of a feedback page.. What does it do to the kid when s/he reads the first questions.. (ASK them )
Intro summative pages.. WHY ? WHEN..
Discuss the importance again of having them decide what is important to them.. Maybe write your goals on the board.
READ and ask for reactions..
There are many ways of setting goals.. Short term.. Longer term. Etc.. We can use different ways with different classes.. With different age kids etc.. BUT we must allow them to try this way and teach them how to do. It.. WE must also be consistent.. And review the goals..etc.. Make them part of our teaching process.
My rationale..
Before showing them.. ASK them to tell you what will come up.. To answer why they are useful
Why is it important to think ??
Something to show your kids.. In order to market the idea.. And tell them why they are doing it ..
