This document discusses various ways that mobile devices can be used to inspire reading. It provides examples of reading apps for mobile devices that help with features like displaying books in color, adding notes, looking up words, and reading aloud with highlighting. It also suggests activities like having students take on characters and text each other conversations, creating character timelines, reflecting on chapter themes, and turning chapters into movie scenes. The goal is to make reading more engaging and interactive through the use of mobile technologies.

L’institut de promotion des formations sur l'islam est néThierry Debels
Dans le Moniteur du 25 janvier 2017 on peut lire le
Décret portant sur la création d'un Institut de promotion des formations sur l'islam.
Le ministre Marcourt (Aide à la jeunesse, des Maisons de justice, des Sports et de la Promotion de Bruxelles, chargé de la tutelle sur la Commission communautaire française de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale):
‘La création de cet Institut concrétise les conclusions de la « Commission chargée de faire des propositions en vue d’un islam de Belgique en Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles », co-présidée par les Professeurs Andrea Réa et Françoise Tulkens. Il s’agit donc d’un processus bien antérieur aux événements tragiques des années 2015 et 2016, qui n’ont fait qu’en confirmer la nécessité. Par « islam de Belgique », la Commission entend un islam « adapté au contexte démocratique belge et européen, respectueux de ses lois et de ses valeurs et notamment la séparation Église/État, l’égalité homme/femme, la liberté d’expression, le rejet de toute forme de radicalisme violent. »
Franse Gemeenschap wil islam verzoenen met Westerse waardenThierry Debels
In het Staatsblad van 25 januari 2017 verscheen het Decreet tot oprichting van een "Institut de promotion des formations sur l'islam" (Instituut voor de bevordering van de opleidingen over de islam). Het is een initiatief van de Franse Gemeenschap.
Het instituut krijgt in 2017 een subsidie van 400.000 euro. Vanaf het jaar 2018, binnen de perken van de beschikbare kredieten, wordt het bedrag van de subsidie elk jaar geïndexeerd op grond van het definitief bedrag van de dotatie van het vorige jaar, vermenigvuldigd met de verhouding tussen het gezondheidsindexcijfer van de maand januari van het bedoelde jaar en dat van de maand januari van het vorige jaar.
Bedoeling is om de islam te verzoenen met Westerse waarden zoals de vrijheid van meningsuiting, de scheiding van kerk & staat, de gelijkwaardigheid van mannen en vrouwen en het aanvaarden van homoseksualiteit .
Niet iedereen gelooft in die aanpak en denkt dat een ‘Belgische’ of ‘Europese’ versie van de islam onmogelijk is.

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
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.
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.
