Up until recently, I knew that mindfulness had benefits, but I never knew their extent. I
also believed I didn’t have time for mindfulness, and that it wasn’t something I should make a
part of my daily routine. This class has taught me that in fact is not true. Mindfulness has so
many positive benefits, and many reasons why mindfulness is a great addition to daily routines.
Mindfulness has been suggested to improve mental health and well-being, resiliency, as well as
cognition, executive control, and attention, which is highlighted in a study by Yakobi et al.
(2020). It can also help cultivate feelings of happiness and joy and lead to its pursuit, as well as
reduce stress. An 8-week mindfulness-based study was done by Hjeltnes et al. (2015) which
evaluated university students, and one of the findings was that during the practice period students
reported they were able to find inner calmness when dealing with stress and anxiety. While I was
doing the practices, I noticed this feeling as well. Although I was stressed, I was able to calm
myself and relax more than I had previously been able to. Also, when I first started doing the
practices in this class or mindfulness practices in the past, I believed that my brain always had to
be completely blank and I should not be focusing on anything else, and I would get frustrated if I
started having other thoughts. However, I have since learned that mindfulness is
“moment-to-moment, non-judgmental awareness...paying attention in a specific way...as
non-reactively, as non-judgmentally, and as open-heartedly as possible” (Jon Kabat-Zinn, 2015).
I learned it was okay to have other thoughts, and just let them be and realize what I was thinking
and feeling instead of trying to control them.
Throughout this paper, I will include a reflection on my experience, specifically my
initial goals for the practices, as well as highlighting what I found went well for me and what did
not, also my overall motivation and dedication to the practices, and a goal for the future.

Reflection on my goals
The first goal I set was: to do the mindfulness activities alone in my room, in a
comfortable position, with my headphones, every day in the evening around 9:00 pm before I go
to bed. I succeeded at completing the mindfulness practices every day, with my headphones, in a
comfortable position, however, the time when I would do them would change. Some days I
would do it earlier in the evening, or later in the night, and once I tried doing it in the morning.
The second goal I set was: to complete the practice logs by setting aside a few minutes of
my time every day right after doing the activities to ensure I truly remembered how I was

THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD
OBJECTIVES
After completing this exercise, the student will be able to:
· Define and differentiate between scientific method, hypothesis, prediction, observation, experiment, controls, conclusion, theory
· Understand the nature of scientific knowledge
· Outline and explain the steps of the scientific method process
· To formulate a hypothesis and develop conclusions based on data from previous experiments
INTRODUCTION
Science can be defined as a systematic approach to acquiring knowledge. We, as humans, have many senses that we rely on to interpret our surroundings and other inhabitants of the world around us. However, sometimes these senses can “fool” us and we must rely on technical equipment and tools to conduct experiments and enhance/expand our existing senses. Science is based upon facts and evidence rather than beliefs or superstitions.
To understand Biology and science, you must first examine how scientific knowledge is obtained. Science is a process that involves several steps. We will now explore these steps:
1. The process begins with making an observation about nature or some research done previously on a topic.
Example: Studies suggest that using Hydro-T plant food will make my tomatoes grow twice as fast and big.
2. The next step is to formulate a question about the observation.
Example: Does a weekly dose of 1 cup of Hydro-T plant food really enhance my yield of tomatoes and stimulate the plant’s growth?
3. Next, a hypothesis is needed. This is just merely an educated guess to answer the question you proposed in #2 above. Or put another way, a tentative explanation of the observed phenomenon. The hypothesis MUST be testable! Before stating your hypothesis, you should gather as much data from as many sources as possible. Also, please note: Hypotheses are NOT always correct, and often times you must formulate alternative hypotheses.
Example: Under normal conditions, supplementing my tomato plants weekly with 1 cup of Hydro-T plant food will make them grow bigger and faster.
4. A prediction is made next based upon your hypothesis. The prediction is a way to put your hypothesis to a test. It is usually phrased in an “If…then….” manner. If the prediction is found out to be.

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.

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.
2. What are the learning objectives for this
week?
The learners demonstrate
understanding of scientific
ways of acquiring
knowledge and solving
problems
What you should learn What you should be able
to do
The learners should be able
to perform in groups in
guided investigations
involving community- based
problems using locally
available materials
4. ACTIVITY 1
Students will be asked
to list 5 observations
that they can perceived
from their surroundings
The World Around
Me
5. A scientific investigation typically begins from making
observations. We make observations all the time.
Observations involves the five senses and the basic
sense organs – eyes, nose, ears, tongue, and hands. For
you to observe, you don’t just look – you look intently in
it. You don’t just touch it, you feel it. Observation
involves deeper looking, feeling, listening, smelling, and
tasting.
STEP 1: OBSERVATIONS
6. Observations can either be qualitative or
quantitative. When we say qualitative, we
describe it by its quality. Quantitative
observations, however is described by the exact
quantity. Quantitative observations or
measurements usually needs apparatus and
equipment.
STEP 1: OBSERVATIONS
7. ACTIVITY 2
Students will observe and
list down all their
observations from the
different pictures that will
be shown to them
Picture Analysis
11. ACTIVITY 3
From the observations given
by the students in the picture
analysis activity, students will
identify what are the
examples of qualitative &
quantitative observations
Qualitative &
Quantitative Data
13. From observations that you have gathered, you
can formulate a problem. A question comes out
of observations as something that sparks your
interest, curiosity or inquisitiveness. Maybe, an
out-of-the-box observation will fuel your desire
to ask a question. All problems will start from
observations.
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
14. STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
Let us try formulating questions from simple observations. You will be
shown a table of observations. Write questions regarding these
observations. The first one is done for you.
15. ACTIVITY 4
Students will be presented with
real life situations/observation.
Then assuming that they are in
the actual scenario, they
formulate a question defining
the problem to be solved.
What If?
16. OBSERVATIONS FORMULATE A QUESTION
Liquid inside the refrigerator freezes
differently
Plants tend to grow faster when exposed
outside the house
Breast fed babies have lower rates of
respiratory infection than babies fed by
formula milk
On average, men typically have more muscle
mass than women.
Cases of dengue increases during rainy
season.
17. Independent Variables
Dependent Variables
Constant Variables
In problem statements, we can see a “cause”
and an “effect.” We call that variables. In
experimentation, we have three types of
variables:
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
18. Independent Variables
These are the things that we manipulate or
change in a study. For example, in the problem
“How long must we cook the egg so that it will
not burn?” the independent variable is the time
it takes for us to cook an egg. This is the cause.
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
19. Dependent Variables
These are the effects or the response to the
change in the independent variable. In our
example given, the dependent variable will be
the appearance of the egg after frying for a
certain time. This is the effect.
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
20. Constant Variables
These are the things that we don’t change so
that we can focus on the cause and effect of
the independent to the dependent variable. For
example, in the situation, the constant variables
should be the pan and oil that we use, and the
temperature of flame.
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
21. As we formulate problems, we should keep
other variables constant so that we can focus
on the cause-effect relationship of the
independent and dependent variables.
Moreover, so that we can formulate a very
specific problem and so that we can test it.
STEP 2: FORMULATE A PROBLEM
22. A. What is the effect of amount of time of frying
on the appearance of the fried egg?
B. To what extent does the amount of time of
frying affect the appearance of the fried egg?
C. What length of time will have the best
appearance of the fried egg?
LET'S PRACTICE
23. D. An investigator wants to find out if longer
hours of watching television can cause eye
defects.
E. A researcher wants to know if the insulation of
a room affects the temperature of the room.
F. You want to test what paper is best to use for
a paper airplane to make it fly longer.
LET'S PRACTICE
24. What is the effect of (independent variable) on
(dependent variable)?
How/to what extent does the (independent
variable) affect (dependent variable)?
Which/what (independent variable) (verb)
(dependent variable)?
Now, here are some sentence frames that you can use
in your problem statements:
