When teaching another language, we teach about culture, food, music, people, the mechanics of the words and expressions, grammar, places, and so on. Most of the time, we focus our lessons on “the book contents”, program, syllabus, or on what we were told to teach. How can we do all that and at the same time teach about what unites all the cultures of the world? Teaching peace becomes an important and meaningful way to show our students how they can use all that they are learning to communicate with the world and help on what we need the most: empathy, love, peace, cooperation, forgiveness, tolerance. Join me and get to know some serious great little projects on how to use language learning and social media to build peace helping heal the world and ourselves. Have yourself and your students act big by starting small…Talk, Write, Call, Record, Tweet, Post, Blog, Host, Design, Build, or Compose… All For Peace.

Global projects in the EFL class involve collaboration between classrooms or individuals in different global locations to exchange thoughts and perceptions by undertaking different tasks to apply, illustrate, or supplement classroom lessons, integrating different new technology tools. Learners research and try to answer questions about a theme or topic creating collaboratively a final product that later is shared and discuss with others on line.
The third annual Second Life MOOC (SLMOOC16) took place from April 2-30, 2016 in Second Life. The theme of the MOOC was “Connecting in Virtual Worlds. Communities of Practice” There is a plethora of communities in virtual worlds promoting education and learning through connecting online via web technologies such as Second Life. The MOOC centered on connecting online for collaborative learning and teaching around the world through virtual worlds like Second Life, Minecraft, or OpenSim. The live presentations included the speakers’ reflective process on teaching and learning in fully online and blended learning formats. SLMOOC16 is designed for educators, schools, and public and private businesses that wish to provide training in virtual worlds. At the end of this experience, participants contribute with their insights to the research and effective learning in VWs. Weekly badges and a final certificate of completion were available for free.

Week 2 Paper Video Resources
Below are some videos that offer additional information about each theme you can cover for the week 2 paper. The videos will give you useful material you can integrate into this paper.
Verbal Communication – Language. There are two video options for this one.
1) Language and Thought:
Boroditsky, B. (2017, November). How language shapes the way we think. TEDWomen. Retrieved July 14, 2019 from https://www.ted.com/talks/lera_boroditsky_how_language_shapes_the_way_we_think
Description: This video explores the ways language shapes patterns of thinking, from assigning blame to categorizing color. Cognitive scientist Lera Borowotski explains that thought is likely impossible without language and it structures our sense of reality. As you watch, think about the links between language and values, traditions, and norms.
2) Linguistic prejudice:
Lieberman, M. (2014, November 12). Sociolinguistics and dialects. The Ling Space. Retrieved August 20, 2019 from http://www.thelingspace.com/episode-11.
Description: Linguist Moti Lieberman explains the idea of dialects and contends that all are equal, from a scientific position. However, through class, age, region, religion, or other factors, some can frame theirs as superior or “proper,” while others are not (a type of prejudice). This is true of African American Vernacular English specifically. As you watch, think about whether one should be strategic about how they speak in different contexts to achieve their goals.
Nonverbal communication
Riccardi, P. (2014, October 21). Cross cultural communication. TED X – Bergen. Retrieved July 14, 2019 from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMyofREc5Jk
Description: An Italian who lived in England and then moved to Norway discusses the many cultural differences he has witnessed. As you watch, focus on the ways he addresses nonverbal cues specifically.
Perceptual Filters
Tero Trainers. (2016, November 8). What is the difference between a high-context and low-context culture. youtube.com. Retrieved September 30, 2019 from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKViQSnW-UA
High/Low Context Cultures
Interfacet Training. (2010, June 18). Cultural dimension: me or we. youtube.com. Retrieved September 30, 2019 from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CW7aWKXB5J4
Gender: There are four video options to learn more about communication and gender.
1) Gender and Credibility
Chemaly, S. (2015, July 28). The credibility gap: How sexism shapes human knowledge. TEDx: Barcelona Women. Retrieved March 19, 2019 from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJqtUUDhaxA
Description: Professor Soraya Chemaly argues that sexism structures the world. As you watch, consider the ways implicit bias might be linked to biased language. Focus on the verbal and nonverbal elements and how culture structures both our ideas, knowledge, and our lives. Think about the idea of credibility specifically and how this is linked to the principles of effective communication ...

Digital devices give students opportunities for powerful learning but they can also be very distracting.
This session will offer practical tips on supporting students and modeling productive 21st Century learning.
Virtual Worlds-Second Life for language learningDoris Molero
WE were invited by Rob Howard the founder of EFLtalks to participate in a really interesting project called EFLtalks 10 in 10 for terms. This project is about building a teacher's video glossary of day to day terminology that teachers and trainers use. EFLtalkers will be defining the terms as well as explaining why, where and where to use the concept in their teaching.
Role-playing and Emoting for Language learning in Virtual worlds: Setting Sc...Doris Molero
Emoting is used for expressing oneself visually, as opposed to verbally. It’s done in 3rd person and happens on the main chat window. It takes place when a role player types in an action that causes a reaction, as a consequence, everyone else in the same room or area as your character sees your character's short description followed by what you type, reacting to it to create a scene that can be short or part of a bigger story. Emoting is most often used to express feelings, gestures, and creating images. When telling stories, a very common structure in writing scenes is the action-reaction-emotional response element. The character does something (or something is done to them), they react to it, and they feel something about that reaction.

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
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.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

https://todaysmeet.com/ELTforPeace
4. Let’s talk Peace …
Please, Introduce yourself to the person sitting next
to you.. Share your take on the following questions…
What is meant by Peace? Why is it desirable?
Is language teaching and learning a way to
promote peace?
Why should educators promote a culture of
peace?
Would language become real if we integrated a
culture of peace in our classrooms?
6. “Language classrooms are known for promoting anxiety,
stress and competition, rather than the collaboration and
sensitive awareness”
Finch (2004)
7. “Peace does not simply involve the absence of war
but includes the concept of peaceful collaboration
amongst individuals and groups of different ethnic
backgrounds as well as from the same ethnic
background.
…….. Students benefit by learning to collaborate
more effectively and by avoiding conflict and
violence.
Can English Language Teachers rise to these
challenges?
Marisa Constantinides
Teaching and Practicing Peace in the EFL class
I believe
they can!
http://marisaconstantinides.edublogs.org/2010/09/21/peace-education-and-elt/
“Our job, after all, is to teach effective
communication skills, and defining our
educational objectives in conjunction
with peace education objectives is not as
difficult as for teachers of other disciplines."
8. Peace Oriented Education
According to UNESCO, a peace oriented education…
“…..should attempt to reduce the willingness to use
violence in individuals and to reveal and remove the
infrastructures which cause violence in human relations
at all levels of society and amongst nations.”
“ Human rights and an education which has peace as its
goal are not a luxury but are at the roots of the mission of
an educational institution..”
10. Gomes de Matos (2012)
Humanizing nature of
language use
Identify states of agreement:
harmony,
communicative dignity,
communicative peace
Dehumanizing uses of
languages
identifies states of disagreement and
disharmony:
communicative conflict,
discord,
contention, and
Dissension.
12. Literacies.. I’m all about the literacies
Develop proficiency and fluency with the tools of
technology;
Build intentional cross-cultural connections and
relationships with others so to pose and solve

13. Literacies.. I’m all about the literacies
Manage, analyze, and synthesize multiple streams

Editor's Notes
what is meant by peace? Why is it desirable? What does it have to do with language learning?
According to UNESCO, a peace oriented education…
“…..should attempt to reduce the willingness to use violence in individuals and to reveal and remove the infrastructures which cause violence in human relations at all levels of society and amongst nations.”
“ Human rights and an education which has peace as its goal are not a luxury but are at the roots of the mission of an educational institution..”
Peace linguistics is a term that was born in the 90’s to promote peace and human rights at international level and stresses the value of linguistic multilingualism at national and international level. It is characterized as interdisciplinary approach aimed at helping educational systems create conditions for the preparation of human beings as peaceful language users.this framework, there is a need to create language attitudes which respect the dignity of individual speakers and speech communities
Linguists are expected to prioritize the humanizing nature of language use and also to be aware of the other side of communicative reality: dehumanizing uses of languages (Gomes de Matos, 2012).
There is a dual challenge involved:
on the one hand, appliers are challenged to
identify states of agreement, harmony, communicative dignity, communicative peace
identify states of disagreement and disharmony such as communicative conflict, discord, contention, and dissension.
