This document contains a summary of a student-centered learning lesson plan utilizing a Socratic circle discussion method. The lesson involves students reading and annotating a poem and nonfiction source related to themes in "The Lovely Bones" to prepare comments and questions. Students will then divide into two groups - an inner circle for in-person discussion and an outer circle using technology to participate in an online chat discussion, with the teacher only listening and redirecting as needed. Halfway through, the groups will switch roles. After, the teacher will review important notes from the discussion. The goal is for students to scaffold new understandings through collaborative discussion of curated materials.
This presentation describes effective textbook study strategies. Many of these strategies are useful in K-12 education only because Open Educational Resources now allow students to mark up and annotate their textbooks.

My abstract : 4th elt conference
Learning preferences : How learners learn better?
Learning preferences are all about how your learners study and learn in better ways that reflect their interests and likes. Learners learn in different ways and have a style or a preference to help them acquire new skills , knowledge and remember things.
Some teachers prefer the concept preference to learning styles so as not to classify a learner and impose a particular learning style. What suits one learner might not suit another? For example, if a group of people are learning videos, some like listening and dramatization the teacher acts. Others want to stand up and move performing the movements at the same time as watching the teacher perform them.
Talking about the best learners learn respecting their preferences and needs is like someone in real life situation where he or she may buy a laptop or smart TV , do you get straight in and start using it, do you read the instructions first, or do you call or ask for competent person to show you what to do (or do you use the internet to watch a video on YouTube)?
That is a real life example of someone’s learning style or preference for learning.
Teachers first primary concern is how to make things easier for their learners and audience – The may opt for a particular methodology that they see it suit them or for a specific diversity while delivering their content, but this might not suit their learners.
For example, if teachers prefer to listening to a lecture they certainly feel more comfortable lecturing their learners.
That’s why teachers have to find out what their learners’ preferences are, then they can adapt the delivery content that to suits them.
There are so many different ways of ascertaining preferences, some systems might contradict others or even be misunderstood. Some people are in favour of them, whereas others aren't. The current thinking is that there is no valid research to justify their use. However, you need to make your own decision on whether using the results of learning styles' tests for differentiation will work for your learners. You will also need to check whether the organisation you work for advocates their use or not.
Most people don't fit into one style or preference, I recommend using a variety of teaching and learning approaches to help learning to take place. Your learners might instinctively know what works best for them rather than having it determined for them. For example, they might prefer practical activities rather than reading or writing. This might have been developed from previous courses they have attended. Rather than this being their learning preference, you could think of it as their teaching preference. You could ask your learners which teaching preference they prefer and then adapt your sessions accordingly.
You probably know if it’s hard for your learners to learn by listening,
But if they get their bodied up and moving around, things click instantly.
Or maybe they love listening to audiobooks,
But nothing seems to make sense to them when they sit down to read a paper book.
What you are describing when you talk about your learners in this way is their learning style.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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

Student-Centered Learning
Student-centered learning is a model of instruction wherein the teacher is not the focus and
is not simply dispensing information, but rather is providing students with the resources and
tools they will need to discover instruction. In this type of instruction, the teacher simply
serves as mediator/facilitator. The students are able to use their resources and ideas and
communicate with each other, therefore using one another’s knowledge to scaffold their
own understanding of a new topic.
I fully agree with this learning approach and believe it to be one of the best methods of
instruction. When students are given the opportunity to take control of their learning and be
accountable for their learning, many times they are more interested and engaged in the
material. With this approach, students are able to voice their own ideas and teach one
another, something they may not always get to do in a teacher-directed instructional setting.
Student-Centered Learning Lesson Plan: Socratic Circle
Monday
ALCOS/CCRS
OBJ.
10th Standards: RL1, RL2, RL3, RL5, RL7, SL1, SL5
Outcome
Students will be able to:
Participate in collaborative discussions concerning theme, author's choices, character
development, and subject representation across multiple texts related to The Lovely
Bones by Alice Sebold.
Use new and existing information to scaffold new ideas and knowledge concerning
topics presented.
Use technology to add to classroom conversation.
2. Before
Students must come to class prepared for Socratic Circle. Preparation must include: 1
annotated poem (from a selection provided by teacher), 1 nonfiction source related to
themes or topics discussed in The Lovely Bones (found from a curated list of websites
provided by teacher), 3 thoughtful comments for each piece, along with textual evidence for
each comment, and 3-5 questions.
Teacher will briefly review the rules of Socratic Circle.
During
Students will divide into two groups; one sitting on the inner circle and one group sitting on
the outer circle. The students in the inner circle will use the materials they’ve prepared to
participate in collaborative discussion and come to educated conclusions for the questions
they’ve prepared. Students sitting on the outer circle will silently use technology to
participate in a chat session on Today’s Meet about the current discussion. The chat session
will be projected in the front of the classroom, and can be referred to by the inner circle
when the conversation seems dull or when the teacher directs attention to something on the
screen. During the Socratic Circle, the teacher will only listen and redirect conversation
when necessary. The teacher will also be taking notes on important comments and questions
that arise.
Halfway through the period, students will stop and the inner circle will move to the outer
circle, and vice-versa.
After
The teacher will review her notes with the class and revisit necessary comments and
questions that arose during discussion.
