Wall Murals Enhancing History .Part 2.
This presentation is on 2 walls mural projects. One with the S.Gieger Public School. Grades 5 & 6, 16ft X 8 ft. Massey, Ontario. The 2nd mural was completed with the N'Swakamok Alternative School in Sudbury.
This study is part of on-going action research between an Art and Design programme at the University of the West Indies with local children aged 4 – 12. This paper reports on a service learning and participatory design project undertaken between the urban university students and children from Guayaguayare, a rural beach village in Trinidad and Tobago the Southern Caribbean. This intervention was developed around a reading programme, where schools are supplied with books by an NGO that then creates fun reading ‘experiences’ around the donated books. In this specific programme, groups of children from the primary school were partnered with Design and Fine Art students of the university. The design students guided the children aged 7 – 9, through the development of their own storybooks based on the donated books. By using a design and literature-centred approach, the activity aimed to interest the children in aspects of the primary school curriculum such as reading and writing, and to help them connect with curriculum content such as language arts and mathematics, as well as introduce non-curricular aims such as building their confidence in themselves and their identities as Caribbean children. This paper analyses and documents the experiment and shares its successes and challenges, and the resulting storybooks created by the young children and their university student mentors.

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.

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
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.

12. Wall murals Enhancing History These projects can be linked to the following subjects in the curriculum; Native Studies, Art, Math and Language Arts. These art related projects do not have to be on the wall directly , nor on panel boards. They can include collage canvas ideas, and found objects. These projects are digitized in process. It is my intent to show the process as to the faces of the participants.
13. N’Swakamok Alternative School This was a 12 hour project working with 12 or so students in the alternative education program at the Sudbury Native Friendship Centre. The students partook in laying out all four walls of their class room and incorporating as many of their own designs as possible. This was an overall rewarding project for those students who appreciated what they were doing.
