Using & Adapting Authentic Materials To Help Motivate Students 2021 HandoutRichard Pinner
This course offers an insight into how best to select and adapt authentic materials to use with students as a way of exposing them to other cultures and ways of thinking. It has been shown that authentic materials are more motivating for students (Peacock, 1997) and thus the class will feature practical demonstrations of ways in which authentic materials can be used to help motivate students. In the class, participants will look at, observe and demonstrate tasks which utilise authentic materials and participants will also have the chance to a adapt materials and design their own tasks in a hands-on workshop
There are the principles and procedures of material development by Brian Tomlinson and many researchers. The PPT explains about how to make materials for material development, or we called teacher. So, teacher should fulfill these procedures and principles when teach students.
Materials development stands as a crucial domain within ELT (English Language Teaching). For individuals aspiring to enhance and advance their English skills, the utilization of appropriate materials becomes imperative. Enclosed is a PowerPoint (PPT) file, the culmination of my comprehensive research on this subject, offering a historical overview of Materials development to aid your learning journey.

Measuring Axle Weight of Moving Vehicle Based on Particle Swarm OptimizationIJRES Journal
The dynamic tire forces are the important factor influencing weigh-in-motion of vehicle. This paper presents a method to separate the dynamic tire forces contained in axle-weight signal. On the basis of analyzing the characteristic of axle-weight signal, the model of axle-weight signal and the objective function are constructed. After introducing the principle of particle swarm optimization (PSO), an improved PSO is employed to estimate the unknown parameters of the objective function. According to the obtained estimates of parameters, the dynamic tire forces contained in axle-weight signal are reconstructed. Subtract the reconstructed dynamic tire forces from the axle-weight signal, and get the estimate of axle weight of moving vehicle. Simulation and field experiments are conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

Strategy Sessions: Innovative strategies for increasing online student engage...LearningandTeaching
Online learning often tries to recreate elements of real world teaching. As digital learning is still a fairly new field, teachers often face difficulties engaging students in this environment. The future of online learning looks promising. Perhaps the biggest beneficial aim for online learning is that it is able to not only recreate the real world classroom, but also be extremely versatile in how and where we teach students.
In these slides, Maxine Rosenfield and Simon Daly give us an insight into learners’ and educators’ expectations of digital learning and the benefits and challenges faced on the platform. Maxine and Simon share a range of strategies that can be used to overcome these challenges based on their experience and feedback, to work towards achieving better learning outcomes.

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
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.

7. Flipped Learning Definition
“Flipped Learning is a pedagogical approach in which direct
instruction moves from the group learning space to the
individual learning space, and the resulting group space is
transformed into a dynamic, interactive learning
environment where the educator guides students as they
apply concepts and engage creatively in the subject
matter.”
- Flipped Learning Network, 2014
8. The Research – Plusses +
• Leans on active learning
strategies and peer work
(Bergmann & Sams, 2012)
• Some aspects connected to
Dewey (Nagel, 2013)

15. Before the Flip
• Deciding what to flip
– Concrete vs. Abstract
• Deciding when to flip
– Beginning vs. End of Year
– Deciding how to flip
• Deciding how to flip
– Video tools
– Assessment/Monitoring tools
• Video Examples
– Poetic Form (Powerpoint/ Jing)
– Annotation Video (Doc Cam)
– How-to Comment (Screencast)
– Argument Writing (Educanon)
16. During the Flip
• Modeled how to learn through a video
• Unit of study: term-heavy poetry unit
• Structure of the Class
– Videos for Homework: Notes/ Assessment tool--several days to watch
– What does the class look like if you aren’t “teaching”?
–Asynchronous Independent Practice (original study)
–Group Practice (Stations)
–Student/teacher conferences
–Interactive Activities
• Students were instructed that with a question, they should:
–1: rewatch video
–2: ask a peer
–3: ask a teacher
17. After the Flip: Student Perspectives
• Positives:
– Fun, interactive way to learn
– Self-paced and self-regulated learning
“At school, we have to get it done in a certain amount of time. But
at home, I get as much time as I need. Also, at school, there are a
lot of distractions...but at home...I can concentrate and I get
better scores.”
18. After the Flip: Student Perspectives
• Negatives:
– No “real-time” assistance
“When I came to a point when I had a
question to ask, there was no one to ask it
to.”
– Stressful to keep up
– Tech issues
19. After the Flip: Teacher Perspectives
• Positives:
– More engaging use of class time
– Students enjoy it (overall)
– Simple (once you get the hang of it)
– With the right assessment tool, you have great
formative assessment
– Good to use videos for review
20. After the Flip: Teacher Perspectives
• Negatives:
– Hard to find the “right” unit to flip: review or new concepts?
– What if students don’t watch?
– Tech complications
– Can’t reach each student each day (Isn’t that a goal of flipping?)
– Age/maturity of students
• Would I “flip” again?
21. Follow-up: What We’ve Changed
Neither of us completely flip classrooms; both use elements from flipped
model as an instructional strategy.
● How can we be sure students have watched the video? What do we do
about students who haven’t?
● How can we increase student engagement and on-task time in class with
the flipped model?
● Given our large class sizes, how can we get to each kid, each day?
● How do we decide what to flip?
22. Guidelines for Flipping the ELA Class
(based on our research findings)
1. Discuss and model the flip process for students (be proactive about discussing the process, including strategic
note-taking, active video-viewing, demonstrating understanding, as well as competency with the technologies involved)
2. Choose appropriate content for flipping (content that can be taught and/or modeled directly rather than more complex
or abstract material is recommended; e.g., literary terms, poetic devices, genre forms, background information on authors or texts, revision and editing
strategies, etc.)
3. Flip content on a regular basis but not exclusively (students need practice with the strategy, but not all ELA
content necessarily lends itself to flipping; be purposeful in terms of when and what you decide to flip)
4. Create engaging and varying opportunities for students to demonstrate what
they’ve learned and how to apply it (students should be accountable for the work they do in the flipped context, both in
terms of viewing and also processing the viewing experience; collaborative activities seem to work best for demonstrating mastery; include opportunities
for reflection on both the flip process as well as the content learned)
5. Take a proactive approach to classroom organization and management(be proactive in
planning how to organize the flip approach and how to manage collaborative work in terms of what students do outside of the classroom and also what
they do afterwards inside of the classroom)
