Heterotopia of the film Solaris directed by Andrei TarkovskiNicolae Sfetcu
In Solaris, within the limits of heterotopic experience, several theoretical and ontological questions are examined through approaches on each character. Berton declares one of the main philosophical themes of the movie when he tells Kelvin: "You want to destroy that which we are presently incapable of understanding? Forgive me, but I am not an advocate of knowledge at any price. Knowledge is only valid when it's based on morality." The ocean does not mean anything as an object, it simply exists. The ocean is not found in any of the human experimental approaches.

Postmodernist cinema, and questions of 'reality'Robert Beshara
This paper will address the representation of various levels of ‘reality’, especially the psychological, in postmodernist cinema, particularly in the work of Jean-Luc Godard. Various theories of realism will be addressed. Reference will be made to dramatic structure, acknowledging art cinema’s debt to theatre, particularly the theories of Aristotle, Artaud, and Brecht. For instance, Godard clearly has been influenced stylistically by some of the tenets of Brecht’s Epic Theatre, such as his emphasis on presentation versus representation. The main argument of the paper is that postmodernist cinema, marked by excessive stylization in its presentation of various levels of reality, in fact manages to capture the ‘real’ in a deeper way than observational cinema and so-called ‘reality TV’

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 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.

2. Science fiction is a genre of fiction which the stories always portray about the
future science and technology. It is essential for us to know that science fiction has an
interrelation with science principles where these stories include both truth and
theories of science (Definition of Science Fiction, 2005). It is not a completely
unbelievable story as this will undertake the genre’s fantasy. Generally, new events,
encounters and evolutions in the future science industry will be included into the plot.
Notably, the plot is regularly set in space, in future, or in a different world, a different
universe or maybe a different dimension. For example, Le Voyage dans la lune by
Georges Melies during the silent film era will be the early pioneers in the field of
science fiction film. The movie that I have chosen are Inception and Interstellar,
which I think both movies, have similarities in terms of time distortion, distance
between reality and exploration of other worlds, hero complexes, and also the love
between family members.
Primarily, time alteration is a very noticeable point in both movies. In
Inception, since the time slows down, all characters will gain more and more time as
they venture deeper and deeper into the dream levels. Despite the safety where they
might just die in the dream, the time in the deepest level of the dream actually allows
characters to spend lifetimes there where it is only a minute in reality and this allows
them to have sufficient time to finish their mission. On the other hand, in Interstellar,
the hours spent on a new planet are actually correspondent to decades back on Earth,
which means, the time moves faster in the new planet (The Misfits Closet, 2014). The
characters are running against time in order to look for a new liveable planet in the
universe which could save the humankind. The male lead spent his time in a planet
and found that every minute equals to a decade on the Earth and his former crew
member had waited him for 27 years on Earth until they both met (Movie Masticator,
2014).
In addition, distance between reality and different worlds are also a visible
idea throughout both movies. In Inception, the male lead and his fellow members
went bottomless into the breaks of the spirit which is presented in a form of dreams
(The Misfits Closet, 2014). They intend to implant the idea of disbanding the company
layer by layer; further and deeper into the person’s dream in order to ensure that the
idea is completely ingrained into the person’s subconscious. On the contrary, in
Interstellar, the male lead and his NASA members went thousand and thousand miles
away from the Earth to investigate and research about the other planets which could
save the civilisation by providing a whole new environment for them. There are
several worlds portrayed in Interstellar where each of them is a totally detached space
and the astronauts who had been sent there can only be communicated through the
beacons after nearly a decade (Kendrick, 2014).
Furthermore, hero complexes also place an important role in both movies. In
Inception, the male lead tries to plant an idea inside a person’s mind to stop the
monopoly of global energy (Shao, 2014). He fought the way through obstacles in the
person’s mind and the danger where he might never leave the dream again and
3. completes the mission flawlessly in the end. Similarly, in Interstellar, the male lead
tried his best to look for a new environment with the aim of saving the humanoid
(Shao, 2014). A crew’s robot helper was sent into the centre of the black hole by the
male lead which hopes that the data transferred could help NASA to amend any
missteps in the professor’s calculations. He also sacrifices himself to ensure his
friends can make it to the other planet and escapes the black hole. However, the male
lead is then transferred into a gravitational singularity created by the supernatural race
in the universe which can control time and space instead of dying alone in the
universe (Kendrick, 2014).
Last but not least, the love between the family members is also emphasized in
both movies. Inception’s climax is built on a tender, soft scene where the young man,
who the male lead planted new ideas in his mind, is heartbroken when he saw his dad
dying on the hospital bed. Strength and peace is found in the young man’s heart
through his dad’s final words, just before he passes away (Movie Masticator, 2014).
Love is proved to be a powerful force and it is so bizarre which pushes humanity (The
Misfits Closet, 2014). Correspondingly, in Interstellar, home is the only place where
the male lead wanted to go; it is the place where his children are left in because he had
to go for a mission. The climax portrays the love of a father towards his daughter
where he finally had the time for his beloved elder daughter before she passed away.
His daughter forgives him for leaving her alone since she was a child, therefore, gave
the male lead the motivation to find his true love.
In a nutshell, we can clearly identify the similarities about the distorted time,
the plot in different kind of spaces, the hero settings and also the power of love in
both Inception and Interstellar. In my opinion, both movies forced the viewers to rack
their brains to ponder about the plot and explore a brand new world in science-fiction
movies. Both movies do not only show future technology like other science-fiction
movies do, yet, the director added thrill essence into it by presenting concepts such as
implantation of ideas through dreams and manipulation of spaces by extra-terrestrial
species. Both movies gave viewers a strong impact where both male leads, also a
father in the movie, get on their heroic journey with the aim of meeting their children
again.
