Web applications and the mobile Web are not the only exciting developments in the use of
networks. For many people “multimedia” is important, because it involves technical challenges
in providing voice over IP and video-on-demand to every computer, and also because of the
immense profits of it. What are some of the technical means we use to implement streaming
audio and video?
i digital audio is a digital representation of an audio wave that can be used to recreate it; audio
waves can be converted to digital form by an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)
ii the data rate of sending audio over the Internet can be reduced by an order of magnitude if
compression is used; one of the most popular audio compression algorithms is MPEG audio
layer 3 (MP3) – it transforms the signal mathematical by a Fourier transform into its frequency
components
iii if a sequence of images is drawn at 50 images/second the eye does not notice they are discreet
images; with video systems we exploit this principle; we represent the images in digital form by
using a grid of pixels (picture elements)

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

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

5. Digital Photography
1981 – Sony created first consumer digital
camera – Sony Mavica
Digital imaging uses an electronic image
sensor to record image as data vs.
chemicals on film
Two types of sensors:
– CCD – charge coupled device
– CMOS sensors – complementary metal-oxide
semiconductor – type of digital circuitry
6. Digital Photography
Pixel – single element, point, dot,
that contains color
Depending on camera capability,
you can capture images with
millions of pixels
10. Digital Photography – web
images
Things to take into consideration
– Standard monitor size changes – to be
safe, consider the maximum space
you're working with at 1024x768px
– Images should be around 100kb,
depending on the size of the site you're
working with, under 1000px at the
widest – why?
11. Digital Photography – web
images
JPG or JPEG – standard web image
file type, lossy compression.
JPEG – Joint Photographic Experts
Group (like W3C but for images)
JPG can embed ICC color profile
and other metadata (e.g., EXIF)
12. Digital Photography – web
images
GIF – Graphics Interchange Format
Created by CompuServe in 1987
256 colors max
Can also animate in short loops (link)
Largely replaced by PNG
13. Digital Photography – web
images
PNG – portable networks graphic –
JUST for images online, not for print
Intended to replace GIFs
Lossless compression (vs JPG)
Much more flexible color-wise than
GIFs
15. Digital Photography –
summary
For photos online – longest side
around 7-800px, no bigger than
1000px wide
For small web graphics, use PNG
For animated web graphics, use GIF
