This quarter in Theatre 2, we start looking at the acting philosophy of Constantine Stanislavsky. You'll find some concepts similar and different that other philosophers studied this year.
Drama is a word of Greek origin meaning "action" and referring to a performance on the stage in which actors act out the events and characters of a story. A dramatic work is usually called a play, but if you want to specify what type of drama it is, you can call it a comedy, a. tragedy, a farce or tragicomedy or other names. As wel1 as a play, drama usually involves
o a playwright or dramatist, that is, the author of the play;
o a stage, that is, the area in a playhouse or theatre where the play is performed;
o an audience, that is, the people who go to the theatre to watch the performance.

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

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.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Week
commencing
20th April Y9
Drama
• Welcome back Y9, hope that
you are in good health and
feeling motivated for a new
challenge!
• For this half term we will
attempt to learn an extract
from a play, from a choice of
several plays all included
here.
• This presentation includes
what you need this week.
• After reading the extracts I
would like you to make your
selection and read it at least
once a day – that will add up
to two hours of Drama this
week.
• Further tasks will be set each
week which relate to how
we move from page to stage.
3. PERFORMANCE FROM TEXT
Component 2
20% OF THE GCSE
In component 2 students read
and select two extracts from a
play which they then prepare and
present to a visiting examiner.
Students can undertake the
component as a performer, or as
a designer. Across the two
extracts they can even fulfil both
roles if they wish.
Your teacher will be best placed
to advise you on which role you
are best to take for this
component.
The performances are examined
in March of your Y11
They are worth 20% of your
overall mark.
4. April 2020 Y9
task overview:
• Each of you will select an
extract from one of the plays
listed in this presentation to
study.
• The overall aim is to learn the
extract so that you could
perform it without the script
to the class on our return to
school.
• Regardless of when we do get
back together, this task is
about performance practice
and gaining a head start on
work we will do later in the
course. It is practical and
doesn’t require a great deal
of sitting at a laptop, you can
do your study anywhere in
the house or garden in fact,
wherever suits you best.
• Each extract is of similar
length and will be a
monologue.
• Each extract when
performed should last 2-3
minutes in length.
• Each week over this five
week half term there will be
sub-tasks linked to the main
task such as
• Researching the context of
the play
• Watching the play if
possible,
• Writing in role
• and so on.
5. Things I Know
to be True
by Andrew Bovell
‘A complex and intense
portrait of the
mechanics of a family –
and a marriage –
through the eyes of
four siblings struggling
to define themselves
beyond their parents’
love and expectations’
7. Every Brilliant Thing
by Duncan
Macmillan
‘Heart wrenching,
hilarious…one of
the funniest plays
you’ll ever see
about
depression…and
possibly one of the
funniest plays you’ll
ever see, full stop’
8. Extract 2 – Narrator. Start where the arrow
indicates. The extract continues over the
page.
9.
10. Girls Like That
by Evan Placey
Designed for any
number of
actors, easily
adapted to be a
monologue, this
play deals with
how girls treat
each other both
in person and on
social media
11. Extract 3 – Girls Like That
The characters are un-named.
In performance this could be
split between more than a
single performer, decided by
the Director.
For this task it will be a
monologue.
12. The Long Road
by Shelagh Stephenson
• Another popular choice of
Y11, this play has both great
monologues and duologues –
I’d love to produce it at
school in fact and still might
do.
• There are several monologues
offered here, all from family
members who have suddenly
and tragically lost a member
of their family to a random
stabbing incident.
13. Part 1 of 2
Continues over the
page.
These are the
opening lines of
the play.
14. Part two
We have to redact
(remove) swearing
from texts and
either do without
it, or replace it with
something more
acceptable. That is
the case
throughout the
GCSE.
16. The Curious
Incident
of the Dog
in the Night-Time
By Simon Stephens
Christopher has never
ventured beyond the end of
his road but his detective
work, forbidden by his
father, takes him on a
frightening journey that
turns his world upside
down.
I have selected two
monologues here, one from
Christopher and one from
Judy.
17. Play 6
In the play Christopher’s tutor Siobhan
(pronounced shiv-awn) says these lines, but for
the purposes of this task we can change that.
18. Again – all these lines can be said by
Christopher to keep it as a monologue.
In Component 2, changes like this are allowed
so long as the changes are ‘consistent with the
artistic intention of the author’ which is a rather
open phrase and means there is scope for
interpretation, like much in Drama!
19. Judy’s monologue
Spoiler – Judy is Christopher’s Mother, who he
believes died, when in fact she left his Father, Ed
when he was very young.
