I’m 16 years old living in famous city of Ghats, Varanasi. When I was born I got severe jaundice. My mom says that I was unable to hear and speak by birth i.e. deaf. It was all because of my mother’s effort that I am who I am. Since I could’t talk much, from an early age my mother always encouraged me to express myself with the help of paper and pencil. I used to draw almost anything, from a butterfly in garden to sketch pictures of my family. Art became my passion at an early age in life.

Literature Narrative
As a young child, I was always fascinated by other things other than books. Books seemed boring especially those that did not have pictures. My parents took me to a school with many children. All the children there wore the same clothes which I later came to know were uniforms. In the school, there were adults who I later came to learn that they were our teachers. I thought they had mood swings since they would be angry at times and soon after be so affectionate, play and sing with us. My favorite subjects in the school were drawing, painting, playing and storytelling classes.
I grew up rather fast and began to understand many other things about the school. I had mixed feelings about school, and that included writing and reading. I learned how to write and read when I was still in kindergarten. I can vaguely remember the first steps in knowing how to write. It was hard and it took me almost a week just to know how to hold a pen and write my name. At first, it was tiring holding a pen and writing a sentence but eventually I got the hang of it with time and it became easy and fun. Everything is a matter of practice, and the bold step of doing it. I grew to hate writing and reading, but later loved it. It’s not about how you start but how you finish.
When I was I high school, the work and the studies were overwhelming. There was so much to read through in order to display exemplary performance in my exams. However, novels, especially by Nora Roberts, were my favorite. I remember, in my class, a book would be scheduled by almost four people. I enjoyed reading captivating novels. I would be happy when a teacher did not turn up for a class, because that meant I would have time to continue reading. Surprisingly, I always found it easier to read novels as compared to school books. I think it's because my knowledge of school books were examined at the end of the semester.
As I grew up, reading and writing were the class norm, and at times one had to read the same thing repeatedly to understand the concepts laid out. That was the most boring thing with having to write assignments. I was always pleased to do my diary with content from my mind. I found it exciting putting what was on my mind on paper. Today I am a writer and writing is my life. I love writing and reading other writer's work based on the topic of my interest.
As a writer, I have discovered interesting facts about writing. Every form of writing is a discovery. As a writer, I get to discover a lot. Every time I put my thoughts on paper I am sharing something with the next generation. I know am sowing a seed, and pushing forward towards the unknown. I have also learned to lower my expectations, so that the words can flow. I don't like straining, since there won't be any valuable content. As a writer, I have read through my work to ensure I have the right content, until am sure. Writing has never .

Can I Write This?
By Laurel Nakanishi
Story Number 3
“Ms. Nakanishi, can I write: ‘You are like a bird?”
“Okay,” I say, “why is your mom like a bird?”
“No, no, no. You are like my alarm clock . . .”
“Mmm hmm.”
“Because my mom is always waking me up in the morning.”
“Yes,” I say, “that sounds like a great simile.”
Jamy A smiles and begins to write. *
For the last month, I have been teaching poetry to 3rd graders at Orchard Villa Elementary School in Liberty City. These classes are part of the O, Miami Poetry Festival. O, Miami’s goal is for everyone in Miami-Dade County to encounter a poem in the month of April. Mrs. Finch’s 3rd-grade class has been encountering me. It is good to be a resident poet in an elementary school. The kids are always excited to see me. I am not constrained by the demands of state testing. I don’t have to get caught up in the bureaucracy of the public school system, but I do get to work with public school kids. And thanks to the presence of the classroom teacher, I don’t need to spend so much time doing classroom management. And best of all, I get to share my passion for poetry with children. It is, pretty much, the best job ever. * From a WLRN radio broadcast: “This is my first time knowing about poetry, and it is fun. And I get to write my own poetry stories and we could talk about our family,” said Kendra Oriental, a 3rd grader.
Oriental is one of the students in the 3rd-grade class learning from poet Laurel Nakanishi. “Sometimes they’ll be like ‘Is it ok to write this?’ And I’ll say ‘Yes! Write that,’” said Nakanishi. “Because they aren’t sure if they have permission to get that creative or to write about their personal experience in that way.” Nakanishi received her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in poetry from the University of Montana and is currently studying at Florida International University.
Isaiah Bell is another one of Nakanishi’s students. “When Miss Nakanishi came here I’m like, ‘Yes! We need poetry!’ Because sometimes in life you have to write yourself a poetry or someone else that needs help cheering up,” Bell said. * Isaiah sits at the back of the class smiling knowingly. He is one of the students who has taken quickly to poetry writing. Angel raises her hand. “Can I write: ‘In the evening my mom clips my toe- nails while screaming into the phone’?” Yes, yes. * I have taught poetry to children in Hawaii, Montana, Nicaragua, and now Miami. Each of these geographical locations and the children who live there, pose different dynamics and opportunities for creativity.
Out of all these places, I am least familiar with Miami. When I moved here nine months ago, I was warned to stay out of Liberty City. “You’ll get your car stolen!” a friend half-joked. When I watched the local news, Liberty City is often the background for shoots or hit-and-run car acci- dents. I walked into Orchard Villa Elementary School with these stories in mind. Sitting in the front office waiting area on my 1st day of class, a ...

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

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.
