During World War 2, India contributed over 2.5 million soldiers to fight as part of the British forces against the Axis powers. Indian troops fought in numerous theaters including in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, East Africa, Southeast Asia, and in defense of India itself. They played an important role in major battles and campaigns, such as lifting the siege of Imphal which halted the Japanese advance. Over 87,000 Indian troops died during the war. Britain relied heavily on troops from India to fight against Germany and Italy.

The Burma campaign was almost entirely the work of the British Indian Army. The success in driving Japanese troops from Burma is attributed to the efforts of General William Slim. He used Dakota planes to support troop movements and proceeded even in the monsoon season. Different approaches to the campaign were conducted by US General 'Vinegar Joe' Stillwell and British General Orde Wingate.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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

2. INTRODUCTION
During the Second World War (1939–1945), India was a
part of the British Empire. India officially declared war
on Nazi Germany in September 1939.[1] India, as a part of
the Allied Nations, sent over two and a half million soldiers
to fight under British command against the Axis powers.
India also provided the base for American operations in
support of China in the China Burma India Theater.
Indians fought with distinction throughout the world,
including in the European theatre against Germany, North
African Campaign against fascist Italy, and in
the southeast Asian theatre; while also defending
the Indian subcontinent against the Japanese forces,
including British Burma and the Crown colony of Ceylon.
Indian troops were also redeployed in former colonies such
as Singapore and Hong Kong, with the Japanese
surrender in August 1945, after the end of World War II.
Over 87,000 Indian troops, and 3 million civilians died in
World War II.[2][3] Field Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck,
former Commander-in-Chief, India, stated
that Britain "couldn't have come through both wars [World
War I and II] if they hadn't had the Indian Army."[4][5]
3. Middle East and African Theater.
The British government meanwhile sent Indian
troops to fight in West Asia and northern Africa
against the Axis. India also geared up to produce
essential goods such as food and uniforms.
The 4th, 5th and 10th Indian Divisions took part in
the North African theatre against Rommel's Afrika
Korps. In addition, the 18th Brigade of the 8th
Indian Division fought at Alamein. Earlier, the 4th
and 5th Indian Divisions took part in the East
African campaign against the Italians
in Somaliland, Eritrea and Abyssinia capturing the
mountain fortress of Keren.
In the Battle of Bir Hacheim, Indian gunners
played an important role by using guns in the anti
tank role and destroying tanks of Rommel's
panzer divisions. Maj PPK Kumaramangalam was
the battery commander of 41 Field Regiment
which was deployed in the anti tank role. He was
awarded the DSO for his act of bravery. Later he
became the Chief of Army Staff of India in 1967.
4. South East Asian theatre.
The British Indian Army was the key British
Empire fighting presence in the Burma
Campaign. The Royal Indian Air force's first
assault mission was carried out against Japanese
troops stationed in Burma. The British Indian
Army was key to breaking the siege
of Imphal when the westward advance of Imperial
Japan came to a halt.
The formations included the Indian III Corps, IV
Corps, the Indian XXXIII Corps and the
Fourteenth Army. As part of the new concept of
Long Range Penetration (LRP), Gurkha troops of
the Indian Army were trained in the present state
of Madhya Pradesh under their commander (later
Major General) Orde Charles Wingate.
These troops, popularly known as Chindits,
played a crucial role in halting the Japanese
advance into South Asia.[20]
5. Indian National Army
By 1942, neighbouring Burma was
invaded by Japan, which by then had
already captured the Indian territory
of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Japan
gave nominal control of the islands to
the Provisional Government of Free
India on 21 October 1943, and in the
following March, the Indian National
Army with the help of Japan crossed into
India and advanced as far
as Kohima in Nagaland. This advance on
the mainland of South Asia reached its
farthest point on India territory, with the
Japanese finally retreating from the Battle
of Kohima and near simultaneous Battle
of Imphal in June 1944.[21]
6. The Invasion of Italy
Indian forces played a role in liberating
Italy from Nazi control. India
contributed the third largest Allied
contingent in the Italian campaign after
US and British forces.
The 4th, 8th and 10th Divisions
and 43rd Gurkha Infantry Brigade led
the advance, notably at the
gruelling Battle of Monte Cassino. They
fought on the Gothic Line in 1944 and
1945.
7. Recapture of the Axis Territory.
In 1944–45 Japan was under heavy air
bombardment at home and suffered
massive naval defeats in the Pacific.
As its Imphal offensive failed, harsh
weather and disease and withdrawal of
air cover (due to more pressing needs
in the Pacific) also took its toll on the
Japanese and remnants of the INA and
the Burma National Army. In spring
1945, a resurgent British army
recaptured the occupied lands.[22]
8. Arakan Campaign
The Arakan Campaign of 1942–43 was
the first tentative Allied attack into Burma,
following the Japanese conquest of
Burma earlier in 1942, during the Second
World War. The British Army and British
Indian Army were not ready for offensive
actions in the difficult terrain they
encountered, nor had the civil
government, industry and transport
infrastructure of Eastern India been
organised to support the Army on the
frontier with Burma. Japanese defenders
occupying well-prepared positions
repeatedly repulsed the British and Indian
forces, who were then forced to retreat
when the Japanese received
reinforcements and counter-attacked.
9. Battle of Imphal
In March 1943, the Japanese command in Burma had
been reorganised. A new headquarters, Burma Area
Army, was created under Lieutenant-
General Masakazu Kawabe. One of its subordinate
formations, responsible for the central part of the front
facing Imphal and Assam, was the Fifteenth Army.
Lieutenant-General Renya Mutaguchi was appointed
to command this army in March 1943. From the
moment he took command, Mutaguchi forcefully
advocated an invasion of India. His motives for doing
so appear to be uncertain. He had played a major part
in several Japanese victories, ever since the Marco
Polo Bridge incident in 1937, and believed it was his
destiny to win the decisive battle of the war for Japan.
He may also have been goaded by the
first Chindit expedition, a raid behind Japanese lines
launched by the British under Orde Wingate early in
1943. The Allies had widely publicised the successful
aspects of Wingate's expedition while concealing their
losses to disease and exhaustion, possibly leading
Mutaguchi and some of his staff to underestimate the
difficulties they would later face.
10. Battle of Kohima
The Battle of Kohima proved the
turning point of the Japanese U-Go
offensive into India in 1944 during
the Second World War. The battle took
place in three stages from 4 April to 22
June 1944 around the town of Kohima,
now the capital city
of Nagaland in Northeast India. From 3
to 16 April, the Japanese attempted to
capture Kohima ridge, a feature which
dominated the road by which the
besieged British and Indian troops of IV
Corps at Imphal were supplied. By mid-
April, the small British and British
Indian force at Kohima was relieved.
11. AZAD HIND FAUJ
The direct origins of Azad Hind can be linked to
two conferences of Indian expatriates from
across Southeast Asia, the first of which was
held in Tokyo in March 1942.[20] At this
conference, convened by Rash Behari Bose,
an Indian expatriate living in Japan, the Indian
Independence League was established as the
first move towards an independent Indian state
politically aligned with the Empire of Japan.
Rash also moved to create a sort of
independence army that would assist in driving
the British from India – this force would later
become the Indian National Army. The second
conference, held later that year in Bangkok,
invited Subhas Chandra Bose to participate in
the leadership of the League. Bose was living
in Germany at the time and made the trip to
Japan via submarine.[21]
