Our film opening uses upbeat music with a drop to emphasize opening scenes and their meanings. We chose a young white male protagonist to appeal to a wide audience without stereotypes, allowing viewers to relate to him as a young average person. Similar to films like Alex Rider and James Bond, we used techniques like fight scenes shot in a CCTV style and filters to seem more realistic. However, we made the fight clear to showcase the protagonist's skills whereas those films use close-ups to build more thrill. Our unique selling point is the plot - through opening scenes we learn of the protagonist's capabilities but are not told the plot, making us work to understand three introduced characters and their relationship to the mysterious protagonist based on their actions and

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

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.
1. How did we attract our audience?
Whilst making our film opening, I had to think about
certain factors as to how it would become successful.
Music was one of our main factors as we needed an upbeat
song with a drop to emphasise the opening scenes and
their meanings.
We used a young white male for the role of our protagonist
as he reaches out to a wide audience without racial
stereotype and the audience can relate to him as he is a
young man, in a similar age group to the target audience.
This also creates more of a realistic feel to the film opening
because if they can put themselves in the actors shoes, the
film becomes more realistic, especially due to the fact that
he acts as an average person and does his best to fit in.
2. Similarities With Other Film Openings
Our film opening is similar to other movies such as the Alex Rider
Series or the James Bond series. We used similar techniques in
shooting the opening of the film but with our own twists on
everything. Here we have our fight scene which is shot in a CCTV
style camera compared with the James Bond fight scene which is
very similar. Both have a filter used on the scene making it seem
more realistic as if it was shot using a nearby camera as a
coincidence. The James Bond film used a close up for the fight
scene, making it harder to understand what is happening and
causing the scene to become a bit more thrilling as you cannot
predict what the outcome will be. Our film opening juxtaposes
that idea as we make the fight very clear to demonstrate the skills
of our protagonist and add in the background props which add to
the realistic feel of the scene.
3. Unique Point Of Film
Our unique selling point of the film would be the plot. We
are able to see the capabilities of the protagonist
throughout the opening scenes but we are not aware of
the plot. Three characters are partially introduced to us
but we are not told anything about them and are forced
to work it out from their actions. As the protagonist
enters the warehouse after driving there in a mysterious
black car, he carefully approaches a worker who seems to
be doing something illegal. This clearly gives us the
impression that he is infiltrating an enemy base in the
attempt to get something or do something. We then find
out about his fighting skills and his ruthlessness. As he
approaches the final man, who’s face we cannot see. We
are told a lot through his facial expression. This hints that
he has or had a relationship with this mysterious
character and reveals a lot of hints but nothing major. This
draws in the audience’s attention and encourages them to
think about what may happen later in the movie.
