This study analyzed interviews conducted by 110 student analysts to develop a list of common mistakes made during requirements elicitation interviews. The researchers identified 34 unique mistakes classified into 7 categories: formulating questions, question omission, order of questions, communication skills, analyst behavior, customer interaction, and teamwork/planning. By analyzing interview recordings and observations, the researchers found that while experience did not impact performance, preparation, domain knowledge, addressing ambiguity, active listening, and rapport were important for effective elicitation. The goal was to provide guidance to help students learn from mistakes.

Formative Evaluation
Formative evaluation gives real results as the extent of the validity of the project submitted. Where it is in the development stage as it gives specific guidance on the kinks at each stage of the design stages. This gives us a good opportunity for the development and improvement before starting the execution, which helps to reach the desired goal.
"Formative evaluation is conducted during the process of designing and development the materials while there's still time to make changes. Summative evaluation measures the effectiveness of instruction after it has been finalized.” (Lecture Note).

characteristics of participants
During the first phase of the project design (analysis phase) and found several recipes they are involved, including:
1- All of the targeted are teachers of elementary schools.
2- Thy did not use iMovie before.
. 3- They have the basics of computer use
. 4- Thy have a desire to use technology in education
. 5- All of them have experience of not less than five years in education
. 6- all-male sex
This helps us a lot in choosing the right tools to deliver the project in proportion to their
characteristics. Also it helps in building the content according to the quality of our targets and what should we say and what we must not say.
The materials and instruments used in the evaluation
Due to the value of our project is submitted, the first steps to success is the involvement of experts and some of the target in the evaluation process. This helps a lot in the detection of defects that may be unclear to us. Can not build any project according to a personal opinion because it certainly would lose a lot of elements that make it an integrated and comprehensive.
"A fourth class of strategies is termed participant-oriented models. As the term suggests, they emphasize the central importance of the evaluation participants, especially clients and users of the program or technology. Client-centered and stakeholder approaches are examples of participant-oriented models, as are consumer-oriented evaluation systems. “(William M.K 2006).
The preparation of questions of the most important matters to reveal the strengths and weaknesses of the project, and I have been chosen two people from the experts. The first one in curriculum design and the other in training program design ,and questions were as follows:

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.

7. Objective
• Therefore, the overall aim of this observational study is to
develop an empirically validated list of mistakes and related
examples to assist students in learning the skills of effective
elicitation interviews.
• Improving and building upon previous knowledge of REET
• Not just about students’ learning
• For teachers to do retrospective analysis of teaching
methodologies based on students’ performance during elicitation
interviews
8. Pedagogical Approach
• Corrective Feedback Learning
• Using failures, mistakes or bad decisions as learning opportunities to
improve in the future
• Role Playing
• rehearsing a real world environment for practicing certain skills
• Authentic Assessment
• replicating real-world challenges and standards of performance that
experts or professionals typically face in the field
• Collaborative Learning
• Involving groups of learners working together to solve a problem,
complete a task, or create a product while being challenged both

• We found 34 unique mistakes classified into following seven
categories:
• Formulating Questions
• Question Omission
• Order of interview questions
• Communication skills
• Analyst Behaviour
• Customer Interaction
• Team work and planning

15. Experience vs planning
Davis, A., et al. Effectiveness of
requirements elicitation techniques:
Empirical results derived from a
systematic review. in 14th International
Conference on Requirements
Engineering,. 2006. IEEE.
“Analyst experience does not appear to be a relevant
factor during information acquisition, at least using
interviews as an elicitation technique. ”
17. Ambiguity as a resource
Spoletini, P., Ferrari, A., Bano, M., Zowghi, D., &
Gnesi, S. (2018). Interview Review: An Empirical
Study on Detecting Ambiguities in Requirements
Elicitation Interviews. In International Working
Conference on Requirements Engineering:
Foundation for Software Quality (pp. 101-118).
Springer, Cham.
“Ambiguities identified during requirements
elicitation interviews can be used by the
requirements analyst as triggers for additional
questions and, consequently, for disclosing further,
possibly tacit knowledge. Therefore, every
unidentified ambiguity may be a missed opportunity
to collect additional information.”
18. It is not just enough to ask
the right questions in the
interview, but it is also
equally important to listen
carefully to the responses
given by the customer and
accurately record the
understanding developed.
The content of the minutes
gives us a good indication
of the level of students’
understanding of the
application domain and the
initial requirements
developed in their
interview.
20. Future Directions
• Analysis of all three rounds of interview recordings
and MOM
• Tracing the mistakes for observing improvements in all
three interviews based on ‘corrective feedback
learning’ philosophy
• Tracing the mistakes in all three interviews to all the
way to SRS and quality of requirements
• Video recording for body language analysis
