The document summarizes technology budget proposals from multiple schools. It notes that the amounts requested ranged from $13,125 to $76,000, with an average of $32,866. The proposals took different approaches, with some primarily narrative and others relying more on charts. There was consensus among the proposals that additional computers and internet access were needed to support students' technology and information literacy skills in the 21st century.

Today's education IT must take advantage of new technologies to engage modern students while balancing operational expenses. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is a rapidly growing technology that makes it easier for students and teachers to take advantage of educational software at school and on their own devices, simultaneously saving the school IT department time, money, and security challenges.
Students and teachers are already using their devices in the classroom. A recent survey found that 85 percent of education institutions allow students, faculty, and staff to use personal devices on their school network [1]. Another 2012 survey discovered that 31 percent of those ages 14-17 own a smartphone [2]. By designing a BYOD (bring your own device) policy and assigning logins to virtual desktops, administrators can put mobile technology to work.
With fewer than 50 percent of schools requiring an antivirus tool to be installed before accessing the network [3], virtual desktops create an easy to maintain system that enables universal software and applications in a secure manner. Virtual desktops can actually decrease the total cost of ownership for hardware, and make in-school computing easier to administrate. In other words, VDI doesn't only help manage mobile devices, it also brings benefits to traditional computer labs and IT management, especially in large-scale environments like entire districts or universities.
Funding for services, especially computer-related, have shifted from tax to student revenue. At the same time, the UNL libraries were experiencing an increase in computer use by users not affiliated with the libraries or university. In response, a small group was charged with investigating access-control systems to allow UNL students, faculty and staff primary use of computers in Love and CY Thompson Libraries. The presentation will present the research undertaken, the implementation and outcomes of having an access-control system put into place.

Past President, NCLCA
Technology is present in our everyday lives from e-mail to e-Commerce from Internet to Instant Messaging from Youtube videos to video conferencing from social networking to Skyping from texting to online textbooks. Technologies bring together the seemingly disparate concepts of ease and complexity. Compared to just ten years ago, we have much more ease in accessing information, resources, and multimedia, but keeping up with emerging technologies can be complex and overwhelming. Knowing what technologies your students have and how they can be leveraged to increase students' success in college can be intimidating. Emerging technologies such as social networking, multi-media sharing, collaborative workspaces, and mobile technologies are significantly changing the nature of learning and learner expectations for interaction, access, and engagement. Learning center professionals need to leverage emerging technologies in ways that can enhance they ways in which we deliver services, create resources, market our centers, manage and train staff, and evaluate our centers. This pre-conference institute will address the following:
Provide a practical guide for how to best understand and evaluate the usefulness of emerging technologies;
Introduce participants to some free technology resources that can help learning center professionals maximize their resources and outreach to students;
Discuss best practices in implementing technology innovations in learning centers; and
Help participants devise a plan for how to choose the technology tools that will help them meet their goals in managing their learning center.

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.
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.

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
3. The lowest amount requested was $13,125 The most requested was $76,000 The average amount requested was $32,866 Money, money, money
4. Some proposals were primarily narrative Some relied heavily on charts Some took a hybrid approach We took a few different approaches to the same task
5. In today’s rapidly changing world, access to electronic sources of information is a basic educational requirement. Successful students use technology to support all stages of the research process: email and online discussion forums to identify and clarify problems; electronic catalogs, websites, and databases to find and evaluate information; and word processing and presentation software, as well as blogs, wikis, and other social media to use, synthesize, and share information (Einsenberg, 2008, p. 45). Narrative approaches
6. Information literacy services and instruction must be “essential components” of media center programs and integrated into the school’s curriculum to ensure students have the critical thinking skills they need to be successful in the 21st century. Yet with only three computers in the school’s media center, our school is woefully unprepared to help students understand and use an information problem-solving process … Narrative approaches
10. School principals might appreciate the at-a-glance nature of charts Grant committees might require a narrative, with extra attention to avoiding professional jargon The needs of the intended audience should drive the approach
11. Everyone asked for enough computers (either mobile lab or desktop) for a whole class set Everyone stressed the need for Internet access But, there was a great deal of consensus, too
12. In all, we asked for a lot of stuff Computer cart of laptops or desktops (30) Subscription databases Interactive white board Networked printer(s) Software: presentation (e.g., Office) and statistical Computer web cams Headsets Microphones ELMO document cameras Computer desks and chairs Extra staff time Maintenance costs Miscellaneous items (cords, labels, storage) Video camera
13. Were databases part of the proposal? Were tables and chairs available? Laptops or desktops? How much do these things actually cost? We’re still thinking through many of the details
14. It’s not enough to teach students to be technology literate, they have to be information literate.* But one overwhelming consensus informed each of our proposals * “Moving from teaching isolated computer skills to helping people learn integrated information and technology skills is not just a good idea – it’s essential if we are to put users in a position to succeed in an increasingly complex and changing world” (Eisenberg, 2008).
