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.

2. Kinetic-Molecular Theory of Gases
It is based on the model outlined as follows.
A gas is composed of a very large number of extremely small particles (molecules or, in
some cases, atoms) in constant, random, straight-line motion.
Molecules of a gas are separated by great distances. The gas is mostly empty space. (The
molecules are treated as so-called point masses, as though they have mass but no volume.)
Molecules collide only fleetingly with one another and with the walls of their container,
and most of the time molecules are not colliding.
There are assumed to be no forces between molecules except very briefly during collisions.
That is, each molecule acts independently of all the others and is unaffected by their
presence, except during collisions.
Individual molecules may gain or lose energy as a result of collisions. In a collection of
molecules at constant temperature, however, the total energy remains constant.
3. Derivation of Boyle s Law
Boyle s law was stated mathematically in equation 𝑃𝑉 = 𝑎
The value of a depends on the number, N, of molecules in the sample and the temperature, T.
Let’s focus on a molecule traveling along the x direction toward a wall perpendicular to its
path. The speed of the molecule is denoted by ux. The force exerted on the wall by the
molecule depends on the following factors.
The frequency of molecular collisions
𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑦 ∝ 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑥 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒
𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑦 ∝ 𝑢 𝑥 𝑥
𝑁
𝑉
The momentum transfer, or impulse.
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑢𝑙𝑠𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑢𝑚 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑠𝑓𝑒𝑟 ∝ 𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑒 𝑥 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑒𝑑
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑢𝑙𝑠𝑒 ∝ 𝑚𝑢 𝑥
4. The pressure of a gas (P) is the product of impulse and collision frequency. Thus, the
complete proportionality expression for factors that affect pressure is
𝑃 ∝ 𝑚𝑢 𝑥 𝑥 𝑢 𝑥 𝑥
𝑁
𝑉
∝
𝑁
𝑉
𝑚 𝑢 𝑥
2
At any instant, however, the molecules in a gas sample are traveling at different
speeds. Therefore, we must replace 𝑢 𝑥
2 in the expression above with the average
value of which is denoted by (𝑈 𝑥
2
)
𝑃 ∝
𝑁
𝑉
𝑢 𝑥

we should expect that 𝑈 𝑥

5. Distribution of Molecular Speeds
The Maxwell equation for the distribution of
speeds gives us fraction of molecules that
have speed ‘u’ is
𝐹(𝑢) = 4𝜋
𝑀
2𝜋𝑅𝑇
3/2
𝑢3
𝑒−(
𝑀𝑢2
2𝑅𝑇)
The distribution depends on the product of two opposing factors: a factor that is
proportional to U and an exponential factor, 𝑒−(
𝑀𝑢2
2𝑅𝑇
)
.
As u increases, the factor increases from a value of zero, while the exponential factor
decreases from a value of one. The factor favors the presence of molecules with high
speeds and is responsible for there being few molecules with speeds near zero
6. The distributions for O2 (g) at 273 K and at 273
K and H2 (g) at 273 K reveal that the lighter the
gas, the broader the range of speeds.
The most probable speed, or modal speed, is
denoted by um , more molecules have this speed
than any other speed. The average speed is
denoted by Uav. The root-mean-square speed,
Urms, is obtained from the average of u2
𝑢 𝑟𝑚𝑠 = 𝑢2 . The root-mean-square, speed is
of particular interest because we can use the
value of urms to calculate the average kinetic
energy, 𝑒 𝑘 of a collection of molecules.
𝑒 𝑘 =

We also know that
𝑃𝑉 =

𝑁𝐴 𝑚 𝑢2
3 𝑃𝑉 = 𝑁𝐴 𝑚 𝑢2
3 𝑅𝑇 = 𝑁𝐴 𝑚 𝑢2
the product NAm represents the mass of 1 mol of molecules, the molar mass, M.
3 𝑅𝑇 = 𝑀𝑢2
𝑢 𝑟𝑚𝑠 = 𝑢2 =
3𝑅𝑇
𝑀
6.20
8. Equation (6.20) shows that urms of a gas is directly proportional
to the square root of its Kelvin temperature and inversely
proportional to the square root of its molar mass.
From this we infer that, on average,
1. molecular speeds increase as the temperature increases, and
2. lighter gas molecules have greater speeds than do heavier
ones
9. The Meaning of Temperature

𝑃𝑉 =

𝑁𝐴 𝑒 𝑘
𝑒 𝑘 =

2
𝑅𝑇
𝑁𝐴
Because R and are constants, equation (6.21) simply states that
𝑒 𝑘 = constant * T … 6.22
The Kelvin temperature (T)of a gas is directly proportional to the average translational
kinetic energy 𝑒 𝑘 of its molecules
Molecules in the hotter object have, on average, higher kinetic energies than do the
molecules in the colder object. When the two objects are placed into contact with each
other, molecules in the hotter object give up some of their kinetic energy through
collisions with molecules in the colder object until the temperatures become equalized
the absolute zero of temperature, is the temperature at which translational molecular
motion should cease.
11. Gas Properties Relating to the Kinetic-Molecular Theory
Diffusion is the migration of molecules as a result of random molecular motion
The diffusion of two or more gases results in an intermingling of the molecules and, in a
closed container, soon produces a homogeneous mixture.
Effusion, is the escape of gas molecules from their container through a tiny orifice or pinhole
The rate at which effusion occurs is directly proportional to molecular speeds. That is,
molecules with high speeds effuse faster than molecules with low speeds.
Let us consider the effusion of two different gases at the same temperature and pressure
𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑒𝑓𝑓𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝐴
𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑒𝑓𝑓𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝐵
=
𝑈𝑟𝑚𝑠 𝐴
𝑈𝑟𝑚𝑠 𝐴
=
3𝑅𝑇/𝑀𝐴
3𝑅𝑇/𝑀 𝐵
=
𝑀𝐴
𝑀 𝐵
12. The rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of
its molar mass … Graham’s law
Graham s law has serious limitations :
It can be used to describe effusion only for gases at very low pressures, so that
molecules escape through an orifice individually, not as a jet of gas.
Also, the orifice must be tiny so that no collisions occur as molecules pass through.
When effusion takes place under the restrictions described above, equation (6.23) can be
used to determine which of two gases effuses faster,
𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜 𝑜𝑓
𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑒𝑑𝑠
𝑒𝑓𝑓𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠
𝑒𝑓𝑓𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠

13. Applications of Diffusion
Addition of mercaptants (CH3SH) to liquefied petroleum gas
(LPG) to detect leaks. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are odorless.
The mercaptan has an odor that can be detected in parts per billion
(ppb) or less. When a leak occurs, which can lead to asphyxiation
or an explosion, we rely on the diffusion of this odorous compound
for a warning.
Separation of 235U from 238 U. the Manhattan Project. The method
is based on the fact that uranium hexafluoride is one of the few
compounds of uranium that can be obtained as a gas at moderate
temperatures
14. Nonideal (Real) Gases
The measure of how much a gas deviates
from ideal gas behavior is found in its
compressibility factor.
The compressibility factor of a gas is the
Ratio PV/nRT. For an ideal gas it is = 1
At 300 K and 10 bar, He, H2, CO, N2 and O2
and behave almost ideally PV/nRT ≈ 1
But NH3 and SF6 do not PV/nRT ≈ 0.88
Conclusion from this plot is that all gases behave ideally at sufficiently low pressures,
say, below 1 atm, but that deviations set in at increased pressures.
15. To explain the significance of the term an2/V2 in the modified pressure factor,
Provided V is not too small, the first term in the equation above is approximately equal to
the pressure exerted by an ideal gas,
𝑛𝑅𝑇
𝑉 − 𝑛𝑏
≈
𝑛𝑅𝑇
𝑉
= 𝑃𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑙
𝑃 =
𝑛𝑅𝑇
𝑉 − 𝑛𝑏
−
𝑎𝑛2
𝑉2
The equation given above for P predicts that the pressure exerted by a real gas will be
less than that of an ideal gas.
The term an2/V2 takes into account the decrease in pressure caused by intermolecular
attractions
16. The van der Waals Equation
For modeling the behavior of real gases, the van der Waals equation, equation is the
simplest to use and interpret
𝑃 +
𝑎𝑛2
𝑉2
𝑉 − 𝑛𝑏 = 𝑛𝑅𝑇 … 6.26
The equation incorporates two molecular parameters, a and b, whose values vary from
molecule to molecule
𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑓𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟 𝑥 𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑓𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟 = 𝑛𝑅𝑇
The van der Waals equation uses
A modified pressure factor P + an2/V2
A modified volume factor V-nb
17. The proportionality constant, a, provides a measure of how strongly the molecules attract
each other.
the values of both a and b increase as the sizes of the molecules increase.
The smaller the values of a and b, the more closely the gas resembles an ideal gas.
Deviations from ideality, as measured by the compressibility factor, become more
pronounced as the values of a and b increase.
18. Using the van der Waals Equation to Calculate the
Pressure of a Gas
Example 6.17
Use the van der Waals equation to calculate the pressure exerted by 1.00 mol Cl2 (g)
confined to a volume of 2.00 L at 273 K. The value of and that of a = 6.49 L2 atm mol-2
and that of b= 0.0562 L mol-1
𝑃 =
𝑛𝑅𝑇
𝑉 − 𝑛𝑏
−
𝑎𝑛2
𝑉2
Then substitute the following values into the equation.
Solution
n = 1.00 mol; V = 2.00 L; T = 273 K; R = 0.08206 atm L mol-1 K-1
n2a = (1.00)2 mol2 * 6.49 L2 atm /mol2 = 6.49 L2 atm
As pointed out in the derivation of Boyle s law, not all the molecules in a gas travel at the same speed. Because of the large number of molecules, we cannot know the speed of each molecule, but we can make a statistical prediction of how many molecules have a particular speed.
The most probable speed is approximately 1500 m/s; the average speed is approximately 1700 m/s; and the root-mean-square speed is approximately 1800 m/s
The idea expressed in equation (6.22) also helps us to understand what is happening at the molecular level when objects with different temperatures are placed into contact with each other.
To summarize: Gases tend to behave ideally at high temperatures and low pressures. Gases tend to behave nonideally at low temperatures and high pressures
The parameter b is called the excluded volume per mole, and, to a rough approximation, it is the volume that one mole of gas occupies when it condenses to a liquid. the volume of the container must be no smaller than nb, and the volume available for molecular motion is (V-nb)
