Friar João de Vila de Conde was a 15th century Portuguese educator who founded several colleges in India to promote Christian education. He worked under St. Francis Xavier. Compulsory education in Portugal is from ages 6 to 18. The National Reading Plan aims to raise literacy levels by creating resources for educators, parents, and students and promoting reading activities at school, home, and in libraries. Reading is seen as an essential skill for developing critical thinking and accessing information.

MULTICULTURAL PERSPECTIVE 2
Multicultural Perspective
Today’s world contains such a wide range of cultures all living and working together,
side by side. Within any classroom, you will find a melting pot of beliefs, cultures, and races, all
going about their day and living their lives, as one, in school, often not realizing how different
each of their lives are on a day to day basis than their neighbors. Embracing each culture and
allowing the children in the classroom to share where they come from in unique ways allows
every one of their peers, as well as their teacher(s), to understand and gain a strong grip on the
unique individual they are, while at the same time giving that student the time to shine and to be
proud of their culture.
The Common Core standard covered for the following lesson is CCSS.ELA-
Literacy.RH.6-8.7: Integrate visual information (e.g., in charts, graphs, photographs, videos, or
maps) with other information in print and digital texts, which can be found at
http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/RH/6-8/7/. The learning activity chosen for 6th
grade students is a short essay and poster board project that each student will create about their
ancestors, culture, and where they/their family came from. The students will be able to be as
creative as possible, using magazine cut-outs, photographs, and other materials that represent
their culture/heritage to share with the class, in order for the entire class to gain a well-rounded
vision of what their home is like, how they celebrate holidays or traditions in their families, and
other unique factors that contribute to their individuality. The students’ essays will not only
discuss their personal lives currently, but will incorporate their ancestor’s lives and traditions as
well, as the children will have to do some research dating a hundred or so years back, to gain that
understanding of how they got where they are today.

MULTICULTURAL PERSPECTIVE 3
This learning activity definitely meets each element of multicultural education in a
number of ways. The first element, Integration of content, is solid in this activity, in that the
activity itself integrates the content of each individual student’s culture and background. Each
student must come up with a two to three page essay on the history of their family, including
country, languages spoken, traditions celebrated, holidays, and so on, leading up to what is still
celebrated today and any unique aspects from their lives they wish to share with the class,
including visuals on a poster board or other materials brought in that represent their culture. In
watching each student’s presentation, the class will gain a deeper respect for each student and
his/her culture and where t ...

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
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.

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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

57. School libraries have taken on a central role by developing activities aimed at fostering interest in books and the pleasure of reading. Among these activities, of particular importance is the work carried out by many teachers , sometimes so discrete and reserved , of teachers who use and apply their imagination spontaneously on effective strategies in the classroom, of groups of teachers who plan activities together, of teams which design and develop school libraries and stimulate their colleagues to place books at the centre of school activity.
