Action films typically feature a protagonist who must overcome physical obstacles in a struggle against adversaries. The narratives focus on the protagonist's point of view and flow of events. Characters tend to be clichéd types like heroes and villains. Cinematography is fast-paced, with shots lasting around 1 second during chase scenes. Props include vehicles, weapons, and locations are often cities providing dramatic backdrops. Adventure films tell stories of exploration, with settings like forests or lost worlds. Props may advance the plot, like the TARDIS. Crime films explain criminals' backgrounds and situations, with low lighting, gangster costumes, and locations in gloomy city backstreets or underground locations. Horror utilizes lighting,

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.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Genres
• Action (Disaster): Stories whose central struggle plays out
mainly through a clash of physical forces
• Adventure: Stories whose central struggle plays out mainly
through encounters with new "worlds."
• Crime: Stories whose central struggle is about catching a
criminal.
• Horror: Stories whose central struggle focuses on escaping
from and eventually defeating a Monster (either human or
non-human).
3. Action
Narrative Themes – Classic action films usually have a solid narrative structure, from the main protagonist’s point of
view. The point of a narrative is it provides a means of constructing a world and identifying it flow as well as regulating
the affects of people. Action film narratives contain like a diary of the main characters life or current situation, which
helps the story/plot come together for the audience.
Character Types – The characters in Action films are always usually cliché. Basically, there is the main protagonist
which will probably be the ‘hero’ character. Another inevitable character will be the villain, the character that will be
causing trouble and feud with the main hero character. Also there are the characters that are caught in the middle. For
example, a friend of the main character would probably be used by the villain like a hostage, meaning the main
character will have to carry out some dangerous mission to regain their friend, as an example.
Mise-en-Scene – The mise-en-scene of an action film is always different as action films tend to change scene locations
a lot throughout. A typical action film setting would be a city (New York) as it is at the heart of a huge civilization where
disasters would seem more dramatic. It generates more tension if the environment makes the main character
uncomfortable as the lighting can change evoke emotions easily. Another factor is Costumes. In some action films
there may be a specific outfit like Spiderman or Batman wear, or they could usually just wear casual clothing
depending on the nature of the film.
Camerawork – Action film camerawork shares its techniques with other film genres. For example, in a frantic chase
scene, the camerawork is very fast paced, the transitions are very quick, the average speed of a chase scene shot is 1
second. The camerawork is very creative in action films. For example, if a character is sneaking behind a box, the
camera may change to look like its from first person view, behind the boxes. So these films utilize all types of
camerawork.
Props – Props are another key factor to an action films structure. Props include vehicles, weapons and decorative
features. Vehicles play a key role in an action film. A vehicle in an action film for the main protagonist may be
something fast and big, whereas the villain may have an intimidating vehicle. Weapons also play the biggest role in an
action film. Weapons are used in battles in action films quite a lot. Some characters.
Locations –The location sets the scene in a movie, action movies need a dramatic location in some areas. The location
should be similar to the genre. A location for an action movie would be something typical of an abandoned warehouse
or a city. This is because the main location will be where action shots are carried out. Shots which will have a manner
of violence, explosions and gunfire.
4. Adventure
Narrative Themes – Adventure narratives are usually done in the form of a story. For example at the beginning of the
film the narrator which you never see as a character in the film but has some relation to the main one, may say ‘Once
upon a time’.
Mise-en-Scene – Adventure films need a good setting. Films that take you to different places, where characters can
explore, places like the Chronicles of Narnia. The setting was everything. It had to be covered in snow, it had to be like
a forest. Another aspect of adventure is the lighting, which will be very bright and happy if it is a happy adventure.
Camerawork – The camerawork used in adventure films are similar those used in Action films. Since the genres can be
teamed together like Indiana Jones, the shots will be fast and frantic as some scenes will involve a bit of running or
action.
Props – The props in an adventure film are critical. There may be a prop that links with the storyline in an adventure
film such as the tardis in Doctor Who. Although it is not a movie, but its an essential prop in the films plot and
storyline.
Locations – Adventure locations are usually in places that are lost continents, a jungle or a desert.
5. Crime
Narrative Themes – Crime film narratives usually explain the life of a criminals background before undergoing more
criminal acts and explaining his situation again. Its basically a journal to the criminals life.
Mise-en-Scene – Criminal films need key features to ensure that they successfully get the audiences attention. One
key feature is to have low lighting. Low lighting makes the scene seem gloomy, dark and somewhat dangerous.
Another feature is the costumes. In a crime film the costumes should be of the gangster nature. For example, a typical
crime film will feature the criminal wearing a black leather jacket and blue denim jeans.
Camerawork – The camerawork used in crime films is similar to those used in Action films. The shots can be
short/frantic if there are any chase scenes because there will be guaranteed action in a crime film. The camerawork
will sometimes change to the handheld, point of view shot as if you are looking from the criminals first person point of
view.
Props – Props are a key feature in crime films. Crime films will feature a lot of weapons and vehicles as they are the
cliché props that are found in criminal films. There will always be the infamous car chase in a crime film, and the
infamous gun fight between two rivals.
Locations – Locations for crime films are mixed but similar to action films. A typical location would be a city where the
gloomy back streets will hold most of the shots of crime films. Unless films like ‘The Bank Job’ which take place in the
epicentre of a city but is secretly carried out underground to rob a bank.
6. Horror
Narrative Themes – Horror films do not tend to have narratives. But if you come across a narrative horror film it will
be in the form of a diary, showing the situation of a character in a scary situation. A great example of this is the film
Grave Encounters. The film is filmed using the ‘found footage’ camerawork. The film shows the characters narrating
directly to the camera not like a story, but actually in the film during some scenes.
Mise-en-Scene – Horror films are all about the costume, lighting and location. The costumes of a horror film usually
change depending on what situations have occurred throughout. For example if a character has been hurt in some
way, their costume may have been torn or stained in some way. Another feature is the lighting. Horror films always
have low lighting in their key chapters to keep the atmosphere grim and sinister.
Camerawork – The camerawork on a horror movie is similar to those of action films. There will be scenes where the
main character/group of characters may be getting chased by a negative entity. A camerawork technique that is used
in horror films is the point of view from the villains side during a tense scene where the main characters might be
sneaking around somewhere.
Props – In a horror film, utilising props is a main element. For example, the SAW franchise uses a variety of gruesome
props. The props used in horror films are also injury props. Fake scars, cuts and blood is massively used In horror films
to make the situation feel real.
Locations – The locations of a horror film are usually abandoned buildings, usually a hospital, warehouse or house. A
great example of a horror location would be the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Held in the baron countryside of Austin,
Texas during the 1970’s, the area was perfect for filming this sinister film. There is always a key building/location
where the classic scenes will end up taking place.
