one of its key components like a thermostat, heat source, or distribution channel might be the cause of the problem. The failure mostly originates from the source whenever a furnace stops functioning.
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.

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

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.

Place the unit away from direct sunlight or other
heat sources.
Do not install the refrigerator near an oven,
radiator, or other heat source, nor in a location
where the temperature will fall below 55°F
(13°C).
Make your height measurement from the lowest
portion of your cupboard down to the floor.
Energy Saving Tips: Refrigerators
21.
Increase proper ventilation on the back of the
refrigerator in order to improve the thermodynamic
refrigeration cycle.
To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator,
allow for 1/2" (1.25 CM) space on each side and at the
top. When installing your refrigerator next to a fixed
wall, leave 2" (5.08 CM) minimum on each side
(depending on your model) to allow for the door to
swing open.
If your refrigerator has an ice maker, allow extra space
at the back for the water line connections.
Energy Saving Tips: Refrigerators
23.
Select the shortest cycle available that
effectively cleans your dishes. Shorter cycles
uses less hot water and electric energy.
Energy Saving Tips: Dishwashers

If you have a washer that allows you to control the
water level, adjust the level according to laundry
size.
Wash laundry in warm or cold water. Rinse laundry
in cold water.
Energy Saving Tips: Washers and Dryers
31.
Don’t dry clothes excessively. Drying laundry
excessively uses more energy than is needed,
and is hard on fabrics. If you purchase a dryer,
get one with an electronic sensor that shuts
off the dryer when clothes are dry.
Energy Saving Tips: Washers and Dryers
32.
Place the washer close to the water heater.
Water loses heat as it flows through pipes.
When the washer is located near the water
heater, hot water doesn’t have to travel as far
to reach the washer, and less heat is lost.
Insulating the pipes between the water
heater and washer helps retain heat.
Energy Saving Tips: Washers and Dryers
34.
Install a water softener. Prevent mineral deposits
from coating the elements of the water heater. Not
only does this saves energy and money but it
prolongs the water heater life.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use
35.
Use low-flow showerheads on all showers
and faucet aerators to reduce the hot water
use.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use

Reduce deposits and build-ups. Drain water from
the bottom of the water heater once or twice a year
to reduce the mineral deposits and sediment buildup. This increases the efficiency of the heater and
avoids corrosion over time.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use
37.
Install a heat loop or in-line trap. If you add a new
water heater to your home, consider having a heat
loop or in-line trap installed. These mechanisms can
be inexpensive to install and keep hot water from
moving into the piping system when you are not
using hot water.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use
38.
Repair dripping faucets promptly. It may not look
like much but one drop a second can waste up to 48
gallons a week. If this water was heated it means
that the energy used to heat the water for your use
is being wasted.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use
39.
Set the water temperature to 120 degrees
Fahrenheit. This is the temperature required
for most of household needs for hot water.
Energy Saving Tips: Water Heater and Water Use

Not every room needs the same amount of
general light.
Use natural lighting as much as possible.
Position the lights properly. Try to illuminate
the entire activity area without creating
distracting glares or shadows.
Energy Saving Tips: Lighting
45.
Adjust the light level. Use the dimmer when
necessary to adjust the light settings. A
dimmed light consumes less energy.
Control outdoor lighting. To assure only duskto-dawn operation, control your fixtures with
a photocell or timer.
Turn off the lights each time they are not
needed.

Use fans with your air conditioner. They
reduce energy costs by circulating air and
allowing raising the thermostat temperature
setting and still being comfortable. Also, they
are cheaper than an air conditioning unit.
Energy Saving Tips: Fans
65.
If a ceiling fan exists, use it to blow air down in hot
weather and use it to blow air up in colder weather
to distribute the heat evenly in the room. This is
done by changing the angle of the blade.
Energy Saving Tips: Fans
66.
Use a whole-house fan. Find a high powered
fan and place is such a way that it circulates
air through the whole house. This option is
cheaper than having multiple fans on each
room.
