This document provides information about different musical forms and structures, including binary form, ternary form, question and answer form, and rondo form. It discusses how repetition and variation are used within musical structures to make the music engaging. Students are asked to practice composing short musical pieces using different forms, such as composing a question and answer conversation using percussion instruments or composing a contrasting B section in binary form. The goal is for students to learn about basic musical structures through hands-on composition activities.

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 is structure?
• If a piece of music repeated the same thing
over and over again it would get boring!
• Music that is always changing, however, would
be very hard to listen to.
• Music is therefore composed within a form or
structure. This makes it easier for the
composer to use both repetition and change.

Form or Structure
Question and Answer
4. Question and answer
• Sometimes a good way of structuring your
music is to compose a musical conversation.
• This device is called Question and Answer.
• Q: How are you today?
A: I am well, thank you.
• We use information from the question to help
us to give our answer.
5. Compose a Question and Answer
• You will be put into pairs to compose a
musical conversation made up of 3 question
and answers.
• You can use spoken phrases to help you to do
this but it must be performed on percussion
instruments.
• Good answers contain elements of the
question but are not exactly the same.
6. Evaluate your work
Answer the questions in as much detail as
possible. Use full sentences and pay careful
attention to spelling and punctuation.
• How did you compose your piece?
• Was it easier to compose the question or the
answer?
• What have you learnt about composing and
performing question and answer phrases?
7. Binary Form
• Music in binary form is made up of 2 sections.
• These 2 sections must be different.
• The first section is called A and the second
section is called B.
• This is one of the simplest musical structures.
A – B
8. Binary Form
• It is very important that music in section B is
different to that in section A.
• We can describe this as contrast in music.
• By changing the elements of music, we can
make the music in section B contrast to that in
section A.
9. Composing Section B
• Draw a Treble Clef on a stave in your exercise book.
• Divide the stave into 4 equal bars.
• Using the notes from Section A (C – G) compose
Section B.
• Keep it simple:
• it only has to be four bars long (4 beats in each bar);
• you can use ideas from Section A;
• try to think how you can make the two sections
contrast.
10. Ternary Form
• Ternary form is a musical structure consisting
of three parts. The first and third parts are
normally identical (or very similar), and the
middle section is different.
A – B - A
• For this reason, we can think of ternary form
as represented by the letters ABA (a musical
sandwich).
11. My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean
We are going to sing a traditional Scottish folk
song called My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean.
We are going to be looking at the terms:
– Phrase: a group of notes that sound like they fit
together (like a sentence)
– Melody Contour: the shape of the tune (is it
smooth or angular)
– Range: the distance (in pitch) between the lowest
and highest notes
12. Rondo Form
• A piece of music in rondo form begins with a
lively tune which keeps on returning.
• In between this lively tune, there are different
sections of music.
• We can describe rondo form as:
A B A C A D A
The sections between the repeats of A are called
episodes.
13. Steel Pans
• You are going to perform a piece of music in
Rondo Form on the steel pans.
• You must remember to :
· Remember your own part
· Pay attention to the other parts
· Keep a steady pulse
· Remember what you are trying to achieve
