It would be ungrateful on our part not to recognize how immense the boons are which modern technology has given to mankind. Can we think of living without computers, mobile phones, electricity or modern methods of publishing? We all know the impact of technology in medical science & education system on us.
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.

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.

9. What is ICT?
During last decade of twentieth century there was extraordinary development in
information and communication technology (ICT) which led to a transmutation of
processes and practices in almost all aspects of human activities.
Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are the technologies used in
the conveying, manipulation and storage of data by electronic means.

10. Information and Communication Technologies
Information is data that has been sorted and arranged.
It consists of organized facts and opinions people receive during daily life.
Changing data into information is called data processing or information processing.
It involves gathering, organizing, and reporting data so it is useful to people.
It is often done using information technology.
11. ICT Tools

12. Information and Communication Technologies
People often use the terms information and communication together.
These terms are related, but each means something different.
Two words we need to know to understand communication technology are data and
information.
Data includes individual facts, statistics (numerical data), and ideas.
These facts and ideas are not sorted or arranged in any manner.
13. What is Communication?
Communication is simply the act of transferring
information from one place to another.
Exchanging Information from computer to another
computer
The classic communication system is made up
of an information source, an encoder, a transmitter, a
receiver, a decoder, storage, retrieval, and an
information destination.

19. Psychology of using Teaching Aids which include
ICTs
Hear is an effective saying
I hear, I forget : Verbal description only are not enough for learners
to remember and understand. Visualization of objects especially in
science and technology is important
I see, I remember: Knowledge that is gained through the site is more
colorful, accurate and permanent. It is said that 80% of our
knowledge is gained through our eyes.
20. ICT can help learning
Develop understanding
Speed and automatic functions of ICT can enable teachers to demonstrate,
explore or explain aspects of their teaching, and students learning, more
effectively e.g. use of a spread sheet to perform calculations in order that
patterns can be concentrated on rather than the calculating.
21. ICT can help learning
Extend access to sources
the capacity and range of ICT can enable teachers and students to gain access
to historical, recent or immediate information, through, for example,
accessing information on CD-ROM or the Internet
Enhance enquiry skills
search for and compare information from different sources
22. ICT can help learning
Enhance the communication of ideas
communicate with other people, locally and over distances, easily and
effectively
present information in ways which are accessible in different forms for
different audiences.
23. Does ICT increase access to learning opportunity?
Education opportunities in dispersed locations where conventional schools are
not viable;
A choice to students and parents of what they want to learn i.e. Choice based
credit system (CBCS);
A safety net for school drop-outs so they do not lapse into illiteracy;
Alternative venue to schools.
Second chance education.
Standardised curriculum materials
Lifelong learning concept
Limiting fraud in assessment process
