A developmental delay is when a child does not reach expected developmental milestones. Common types of delays include speech, motor, cognitive, vision, and social/emotional skills. Signs of delays include lack of babbling, grasping, following objects, walking, and interacting with others by certain ages. If suspected, parents should speak to their pediatrician who may screen the child and refer them for early intervention services to address any delays.

Temper tantrums are unpleasant, disruptive behaviors or emotional
outbursts. They often occur in response to unfulfilled needs or desires.
Tantrums are more likely to occur in younger children or those who
cannot express their needs or control their feelings when they are
frustrated.
A child’s body and mind are still developing, so his physical and emotional reactions are different from adults. The professionals at East Tennessee Children's Hospital's Developmental-Behavioral Center are trained to examine and treat children in ways that will help children relax and feel comfortable in order to achieve the most accurate diagnosis and the greatest results from treatment designed just for them.

Why do children with autism need special care in the first place?Children with autism are different. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental disability; signs typically appear during early childhood and affect a person’s ability to communicate, and interact with others. Some of the behaviors associated with autism include
•delayed learning of language
•difficulty making eye contact or holding a conversation
•narrow or intense interests
•poor motor skills
•sensory sensitivities
Autism is a complex developmental condition that typically appears during early childhood and is characterised by difficulties in social interaction, communication, restricted and repetitive interests and behaviours, and sensory sensitivities. It is called a ‘developmental’ condition because symptoms of autism generally appear in the first two years of a child’s life. It is called a ‘spectrum’ disorder because it is most influenced by different combinations of genetic and environmental factors and affects people differently and to varying degrees. Each autistic person has a set of strengths and challenges that are distinct from any other autistic person and the way (s)he/she learns, thinks or solves problems can range from highly skilled to severely challenged. ASD may occur in persons across all ethnic, racial, and economic groups.

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

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.

1. What Is a
Developmental Delay

2. Do you suspect that your baby or toddler might
have a developmental delay? A developmental delay
is often diagnosed when a child does not reach
their developmental milestone when expected. They
can range from minor to something more
significant.
3. Most developmental delays are not serious and
usually correct themselves. And for some, there
is no known cause. However, if your child does
have some form of developmental delay, there
are things that you can do to address it.
4. What Are the Signs of a Developmental
Delay?
There are many types of possible developmental delay in
babies and toddlers; speech, vision and motor skills are
just a few. It can be hard, especially for first-time parents
to distinguish a simple lagging behind with a true
developmental delay in their child. The following are the
warning signs for different types of developmental delays
in children from newborns to two year olds.
5.
6. Speech and language delay in toddlers are very common. In fact, they are
the most common form of developmental delay. While speech refers to
verbal communications, language is more about how your little one is able
to express and receive information. If your toddler is not speaking at the
same age as his older sister did, or some other kids his age is ahead of him
please do not worry. Early language development is very uneven and
happens in spurts, a few months difference is not significant and your
child will catch up before you expected, and it will likely happen all of a
sudden when he has a big vocabulary growth spurt. One language delay
cause that you should investigate though is a potential hearing loss, luckily
this is rather easy to rule out, but if you are worried check with your
child’s pediatrician. If your school-aged child is still struggling with
language you may need to look into a possible learning disability (like
attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD), and autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). If you suspect a speech delay, your pediatrician will likely
refer your child to be evaluated by a speech-language pathologist.
7. If you suspect that your baby or toddler has a language delay, here are some signs to watch out for:
• Does not babble or respond to
loud noises by 3 to 4 months
• Does not attempt to imitate
sounds by 4 months
• Does not respond to sounds at
all by 7 months
• Does not use any single words
by age 1
• Cannot speak at least 15
words, can only imitate
speech, or does not use speech
to communicate by age 2
8. Are you afraid that your baby or toddler is not walking when he
or she should be? Or maybe you have noticed that your toddler
is having difficulty grasping a spoon. If so, then it is possible that
he or she may have a gross motor or fine motor delay. Gross
motor delay affects the ability to crawl or walk. Whereas a fine
motor delay will impact your baby or toddler’s ability to use
utensils or hold a crayon properly. Common causes include
premature birth, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, vision problems, and
cognitive delays. If you suspect a delay in motor skills, your
pediatrician may recommend physical therapy for gross motor
delays or occupational therapy for fine motor delays.
9. If you suspect that your baby or toddler has a motor skills delay, here are some signs to watch out for:
• Does not reach for, grasp, or hold
objects by 3 or 4 months old
• Does not roll over in either
direction by 5 months
• Cannot sit up without help by 6
months
• Does not actively reach for objects
by 7 months
• Does not crawl or cannot stand
while being supported by age 1
• Cannot walk or push a wheeled
toy by 18 months
• Still walks on toes by age 2
10. A cognitive delay refers to problems with thinking and
can sometimes be referred to as an intellectual
disability. If your little one has a cognitive
developmental delay then it may be due to a learning
disability (like ADHD), lead poisoning, a genetic
disorder, or autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Early
intervention and treatment is key when addressing
this type of developmental delay.
11. If you suspect that your baby or toddler has a cognitive delay, here are some signs to watch out for
Not producing babbling
sounds
Not imitating gestures
such as waving bye-bye
or shaking head
Plays only with a few
favorite toys
12. Your baby’s vision is normally blurry within his or
her first 6 months. Eventually, it should improve.
If it doesn’t, there are some signs you should look
out for.
13. • Does not notice hands by 2
months
• Does not follow moving
objects with his or her eyes
by 3 months
• Experiences constant tearing
or eye drainage by 6 months
• Does not follow near objects
at least 1 foot away or far
objects at least 6 feet away
with both eyes by 6 months
If you suspect that your baby or toddler has a vision delay, here are some signs to watch out for:
14. A social or emotional
developmental delay causes
problems with your child’s
ability to interact with adults
or even other children. These
problems will likely appear
before your child starts school.
Some causes of social or
emotional delay are cognitive
delay or what is known as
pervasive developmental
disorder (PDD). PDD falls under
the umbrella of ASD. While
there is no known cure for this
type of developmental delay,
there is treatment. Treatment
includes behavioral therapy and
15. When a child has many or
all of the previously listed
developmental delays, it is
called “global
developmental delay.”
Common causes include a
genetic defect (like down
syndrome), fragile X
syndrome, fetal alcohal
syndrome, and severe
medical problems
associated with
prematurity.
16. Watching your child grow and develop new
skills is one of the most exciting aspects of
being a parent. All parents anticipate and
track their child's development, and the
majority of the time children meet their
milestones on time. However, parents get
concerned when a child doesn't do something
by the age he or she is "supposed to." It's even
worse when a friend or relative is telling you
all the amazing things his child is doing that
yours is not.
17.
18. As long as those periodic evaluations are normal, you can
rest assured that your child is developing appropriately and
should be fine.
• Ages and Stages Questionnaire
• Parents' Evaluation of
Developmental Status
• Modified Checklist for Autism In
Toddlers
• Others
19. When problems are identified, the first step is a
referral to early intervention, which is provided
under a federal law called the Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Early
intervention is available in every state. Your
pediatrician may also refer your child to a
developmental-behavioral pediatric specialist
who can provide developmental and medical
evaluations and follow-up for developmental
problems.
20. Screening, evaluation and assessment are
distinct processes with different purposes.
Screening includes activities to identify
children who may need further evaluation
in order to determine the existence of a
delay in development or a particular
disability. Evaluation is used to determine
the existence of a delay or disability, to
identify the child's strengths and needs in
all areas of development. Assessment is used
to determine the individual child's present
level of performance and early intervention
or educational needs.
21. screening is at a state's discretion and is part of Post-
Referral Procedures. Screening is conducted using
appropriate instruments, administered by trained
personnel, by the lead agency or an early intervention
program. The purpose of screening is to determine
whether an infant or toddler is suspected of having a
disability and is, therefore, in need of early intervention
services. Screening requires parental notice and consent,
must be performed within the 45 day timeline, and, at a
parent's request and with consent, the EI program must
conduct an initial evaluation of the infant or toddler
even if the results of the screening do not identify the
child as suspected of having a disability. screening may be
conducted as part of child find activities in order to
ascertain whether the child should be referred for an
evaluation to determine if the child has a disability and is
in need of special education and related services.
