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.

BELLEAUWOOD
PISABASEDACTIVITY-
VINITARIKHI
FIRSTWORLDWAR
2. MYEXPERIENCE-n June of 1918, a fierce battle was waged at Belleau
Wood, an ancient hunting-reserve of old-growth oaks, surrounded by
wheat fields, located about 60 miles outside of Paris. The Germans
were launching their spring offensive in an attempt to overwhelm
the Allies before they were fortified by fresh American troops who
were arriving at a rate of about 250,000 per month. The Battle of
Belleau Wood has since achieved near mythic status in U.S. military
3. MYRECRUITMENT–I was recruited in the American Expeditionary Forces
called "The Doughboys." Pvt.Albert McArdle of EastBoston . early onethird
of the recruits obtained by the Marine Corpssince the United States
entered the war were under twenty-one years of age." Thearticle goeson
to quote Secretary of the Navy JosephusDaniels: "The policy of the Marine
Corpsin admitting boys of eighteen years and over into the ranksis more
than justified…by the heroic fighting by the Marines at Chateau-Thierry and
Belleau Wood."
4. MY TRAINING
- I received ‘13 months good soundtraining’.[1] In contrast, Herbert Sulzbach,who
joined the German army in August 1914, found himself in the front line just four
weeks later, after only the most rudimentary training. Still, somecommon themes
emerge, andthis article will concentrate on those who joined from 1916on, after
the initial ‘rush to the colours’had died down andthe training system hadsettled
into agroove. New recruits in all armies were first put through three months of
basictraining. Theaim of this course was: to build up physical fitness and
confidence; instil discipline andobedience; and teach the fundamental military
skills necessaryto function in the army. Atypical daystarted withReveille (a bugle
or trumpet call to wake the soldiers and call them to duty) at 5.30 a.m.After
tidying up and cleaning their quarters and having abrew, at 6.30 recruits would
parade for anhour and ahalf to work on their fitness.After breakfast at 8, the
morning was spent drilling on the parade square, learning, for instance, to march,
form fours and about turn . Between 12.15 and 2 p.m. the men took lunch before
returning for more drill in the afternoon until 4.15. Theunlucky might be detailed
off for fatigues or work parties thereafter, but otherwise recruits were off duty,
although they might have to spendtime cleaning kit and shining boots.

8. n June1, the Major General OmarBundy's 2nd Division took up positions
south of Belleau Wood near Lucy-le-Bocage with its line extending south
opposite Vaux.Acomposite division, the 2nd consisted of Brigadier General
Edward M. Lewis' 3rd Infantry Brigade(9th & 23rd Infantry Regiments) and
Brigadier GeneralJamesHarbord's 4th Marine Brigade(5th & 6th Marine
Regiments).In addition to their infantryregiments, eachbrigade possesseda
machine gun battalion. While Harbord's Marines assumedaposition near
Belleau Wood, Lewis' men held aline to the south below the Paris-Metz
Road.
Asthe Marines dug in, aFrench officer suggestedthat they withdrawal.To
this Captain Lloyd Williams of the 5th Marines famously replied, "Retreat?
Hell, we just got here." Two dayslater elements of the German 347th
Division from Army Group Crown Prince occupied theforest.

butts, bayonets, and trench shovels.AsMarine officers and NCOsfell dead
or wounded, junior officers and enlisted men took their places.Themost
determined counterattack on June13 camewhen elements of three
Germans divisions attempted to reclaim theirold positions. Then, the
FrenchArmy’s artillery finally unleashed a14-hour long heavy
bombardment that allowed marines in 2/5, 3/5, and 3/6 to dislodge the
remaining Germans from the northern end ofBelleau Wood on June26.

12. AFTERMATH-In the fighting around Belleau Wood, American forces
suffered 1,811 killed and 7,966 wounded and missing. German casualties are
unknown though 1,600 were captured. The Battle of Belleau Wood and the
Battle of Chateau-Thierry showed the United States' allies that it was fully
committed fighting the war and was willing to do whatever was required to
achieve victory but the Marines fighting ability and classified them as elite
"storm troopers."
