Bildungsroman
Charles Dickens' 1850 novel David Copperfield is considered a classic Bildungsroman that follows the protagonist's journey from childhood to maturity. Through David's experiences and relationships with various characters, the novel explores themes of disciplining one's emotions and finding one's place in society. While some characters like Agnes Wickfield demonstrate maturity and wisdom, others like Uriah Heep and James Steerforth lack discipline. David develops a disciplined heart through his personal growth over the course of the story. The novel was praised by critics like Tolstoy and influenced many other authors.
Essentials of drama intro
A drama is a story enacted on stage involving characters who face a conflict. It follows a dramatic structure that includes an exposition, complications, climax, and resolution. Tragedies typically involve serious themes like life and death and end unhappily, featuring a tragic hero with a flaw. Comedies usually center on a romantic plot and end happily. Modern plays focus more on personal issues and experiment with unconventional structures. Plays are brought to life through performances that involve actors, directors, designers, and technicians working to realize the playwright's vision on stage for an audience.
Drama vocabulary

It provides examples for many of the terms to illustrate their meaning in a dramatic work. The vocabulary covers elements of plot, character, language, and production aspects related to plays and screenplays.

Students are prompted to discuss the poem in pairs and consider questions about its content, form, descriptions of beauty, and possible themes.
Imagery
Imagery uses descriptive words and sentences to create sensory images in the reader's mind of what is happening in a story. There are five basic types of imagery that appeal to our five senses: visual imagery describes what we see, auditory imagery describes what we hear, olfactory imagery describes what we smell, gustatory imagery describes what we taste, and tactile imagery describes what we feel or touch. Imagery is also commonly used in pop culture through songs, movies, and plays to vividly describe sensory experiences through creative language.

Drama conventions
The document discusses the key conventions of drama films, including portraying realistic characters and stories that move the audience emotionally. It focuses on how the main drama convention of conflict, both internal and external, will be addressed in the trailer for a film about a character named Eryn who is alone in the world. While some conventions like strong social interaction will be changed due to Eryn having no other characters to interact with, other conventions such as a loss of equilibrium and a relatable main character will still be included to conform to dramatic conventions.

R And J Power Summary
The document provides an overview of the plot and dramatic structure of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. It discusses the play's exposition, which introduces the feuding families of Montague and Capulet in Verona, as well as Romeo and Juliet. The inciting moment is when Romeo and Juliet meet at a ball.

In the falling action, plans are made for Juliet to marry Paris, leading to her faking her death. The denouement sees both lovers die upon discovering one another.
The ballad
The document discusses different types of narrative poetry, focusing on the ballad form. It notes that ballads began as oral traditions and were later written down. There are three main types of ballads: traditional ballads composed anonymously and passed down orally; broadside ballads printed on single sheets addressing current events; and literary ballads written by educated poets imitating traditional forms. Traditional ballads use repetition, incremental repetition, rhyme and formulaic phrases to aid oral transmission and recollection. They tell dramatic stories in a brief and impersonal manner focused on action with little character development.
Introduction to romeo and juliet
This document introduces the main characters in Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet. It provides a brief description of each character including their name, their family or affiliation, and their role in the story. The major characters introduced are Romeo and Juliet, the young lovers whose marriage is opposed by their feuding families, as well as Friar Laurence who secretly marries them, hoping to end the family feud.
The types of drama
Plays are classified as either tragedies or comedies based on their ending. Comedies end happily while tragedies end unhappily. Tragedies arouse pity and fear in audiences as they witness a noble character's downfall due to a tragic flaw, helping to purge these emotions. Comedies involve lovers who overcome obstacles and unite by the end through various comic devices and subgenres like romantic comedy, farce, or comedy of manners.
Irony
There are three main types of irony: verbal, situational, and dramatic. Verbal irony uses words to express something different than their literal meaning. Situational irony occurs when the actual outcome is opposite of what was expected. Dramatic irony is used in storytelling where the audience knows something characters do not, such as a character relying on deceitful people unknowingly. It creates curiosity in how the character will eventually discover the truth.
Plot and dramatic structure
1. Plot and dramatic structure refer to the sequence of events in a story and how they relate through cause and effect.
2. Aristotle considered plot the most important element in drama, advocating for a 3-part structure with a beginning, middle, and end. Later, Horace advocated for a 5-act structure and Freytag developed a diagram called Freytag's Pyramid to analyze dramatic structure.
3. Freytag's Pyramid diagrams the rising action and tension of a story through exposition, inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution/denouement. However, critics argue it does not fully apply to modern drama and that exposition should be integrated

Men often wore tights and embroidered shirts or vests. Hair was a big focus, with long hair, trimmed beards, and wigs popular. Both sexes used white lead makeup which could crack from laughing.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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...
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
