Social constructivism focuses on the collaborative nature of learning. Knowledge develops from how people interact with each other, their culture, and society at large. Students rely on others to help create their building blocks, and learning from others helps them construct their own knowledge and reality. Social constructivism, a social learning theory developed by Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, posits that individuals are active participants in the creation of their own knowledge. While social constructionism focuses on the artifacts that are created through the social interactions of a group, social constructivism focuses on an individual's learning that takes place because of his or her interactions in a group. A very simple example is an object like a cup. Cognitive constructivism comes from the work of Jean Piaget and his research on cognitive development in children. Social. Social constructivism focuses on the collaborative nature of learning. Knowledge develops from how people interact with each other, their culture, and society at large. This is the Theory proposed by Piaget and Vygotsky.

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.

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. Sociocultural theory grew from the
work of seminal psychologist Lev
Vygotsky, who believed that parents,
caregivers, peers, and the culture at
large were responsible for
developing higher order functions.
3.
4.
5. The zone of proximal
development, often
abbreviated as ZPD, is
the difference between
what a learner can do
without help and what
he or she can do with
help.
6.
7. Vygotsky stated that a child
follows an adult's example and
gradually develops the ability
to do certain tasks without
help.[
9. There are two levels of
attainment for the ZPD:
Level 1 – the ‘present
level of development’.
This describes what the
child is capable of doing
without any help from
others.
10. Level 2 – the
‘potential level of
development’. This
means what the
child could
potentially be
capable of with help
from other people
or ‘teachers’.
11. Another important feature of this theory
is scaffolding. When an adult provides
support for a child, they will adjust the amount
of help they give depending on their progress.
For example, a child learning to walk might at
first have both their hands held and pulled
upwards.
12.
13. As they learn to support their own weight, the
mother might hold both their hands loosely.
Then she might just hold one hand, then
eventually nothing. This progression of different
levels of help is scaffolding. It draws parallels
from real scaffolding for buildings; it is used as a
support for construction of new material and
then removed once the building is complete
14. He believed that through help from other,
more knowledgable people, the child can
potentially gain knowledge already held
by them. However, the knowledge must be
appropriate for the child’s level of
comprehension.
15.
16. Anything that is too complicated for the
child to learn that isn’t in their ZPD cannot
be learnt at all until there is a shift in the
ZPD. When a child does attain their
potential, this shift occurs and the child
can continue learning more complex,
higher level material.
17. Implications for educators:
Various investigations, using different approaches and research
frameworks have proved collaborative learning to be effective
in many kinds of settings and contexts. Teachers should assign
tasks that students cannot do on their own, but which they can
do with assistance; they should provide just enough assistance
so that students learn to complete the tasks independently and
then provide an environment that enables students to do
harder tasks than would otherwise be possible. In the context of
adults, peers should challenge each other in order to support
collaboration and success.
18. As a final point, Vygotsky looked at the role of
egocentric/private speech. This is, for example,
when a child will sit on their own and speak their
thoughts out loud as they play. He suggested a
child is regulating and planning their behaviour at
this point: “Where is the block? I can’t find it. Oh
well, I’ll use this block.” He called these
‘monologues’.
19. By 7 years, these monologues become internalised
and the child becomes a “verbal thinker”, which is
what most adults can do with no problem. When
we are faced with a problem, and we’re alone, we
quite often think through the problem – but in our
heads. Children before 7 will do this out loud. This
verbal thinking forms the basis for higher level,
more abstract thinking (planning, reasoning,
memorising, evaluating).
20. Quick summary
Emphasised the role of a teacher in cognitive
development, and the need to have support from a
More Knowledgable Other, or MKO.
The zone of proximal development, or ZPD,
differentiates between a learner’s current
development and their potential development
being taught from a MKO.
21. Scaffolding provides an effective way to reach potential
levels of development, but only when different levels of
assistance are given when required.
Social and cultural tools are an important means of
gaining intelligence.
There is a close link between the acquisition of language
and the development of thinking.
Internalising monologues, and therefore becoming a
verbal thinker, is a stepping stone to higher levels of
thinking.
