The document discusses potential changes to the legal education system in Ireland under the proposed Legal Services Regulation Bill of 2011. It currently involves three stages - academic, professional, and practical - delivered through the Honorable Society of King's Inns for barristers and the Law Society of Ireland for solicitors. The bill would create a new regulatory authority with powers to review and recommend changes to admission requirements, providers of education, curriculum standards, and accreditation of institutions. It could liberalize the market for legal education and training beyond the current monopolies. The bill aims to improve standards but may challenge the traditional systems, requiring providers to adapt to new market forces and consumer demand.

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.

9. LSRB 2011 section 12
The Authority is required to regulate the provision of legal services and to ensure
the maintenance and improvement of standards in that regard (s 12 (1)). It may
also review and make recommendations in relation to:
• the admission requirements to the legal profession, and the availability and
quality of legal education and training, including on-going training (s
12(2)(a)(i))
• how legal education and training is provided, and by whom it is provided (s
12(2)(a)(ii)(II))
• the curriculum arrangements for the provision of clinical legal education, the
teaching of legal ethics, negotiation skills, ADR and advocacy (s 12(2)(ii)(II))
It will also be responsible for reviewing policies of LSI and BCI (sic) regarding the
dissemination of information regarding education and accreditation requirements
for the legal profession (s 12(2)(a)(i))

10. LSRB 2011 s 32
The Authority must prepare a report (for the Minister) in relation to the
education and training arrangements for legal practitioners (s 32(1)(a)) which
will include:
• a review of existing arrangements for the education and training of legal
practitioners, with recommendations in relation to the arrangements
which the Authority considers should be in place for its provision, and for
the accreditation of bodies to provide legal education and training (s
32(3)(b))
• recommendations regarding appropriate standards of education and
training required for the award of legal professional qualifications, and for
monitoring standards in relation to such awards (s 32(3)(c)(i),(ii))

12. LSRB 2011 – A Potential Revolution in
the Provision of Legal Education?
• The Bill creates the potential for
the liberalisation of the market in
professional legal education and
training which has traditionally
been monopolised by the HSKI
and LSI.
• This will provide new
opportunities for Universities and
other Third Level Colleges
• At the academic stage of
education, greater prominence
will be given to the teaching of
practical legal education, legal
ethics, negotiation skills, ADR and
advocacy
• The HSKI and the LSI may well be
the greatest losers in the Brave
New World of Legal Education
envisaged in the LSRB 2011
• The motto of the HSKI is nolumus
mutari (we shall not change/be
changed). However, the HSKI will
face a dilemma: remain true to
the motto, or embrace the
philosophy of the market place,
and respond to ‘consumer
demand’ and ‘market forces’.
• The LSI generally responded
reasonably positively to prospect
of the changes which may follow
upon enactment of the LSRB
2011

13. Dear Minister Fitzgerald…
Prior to the enactment of radical changes to the
present system of legal education, a thorough
review of the present arrangements should be
conducted:
• to identify the strengths and weaknesses of
the current system
• to develop a clear understanding of how
available resources may be most effectively
applied to bring about desired the change

15. UN Basic Principles on the Role of
Lawyers, Article 11
• “In countries where there exist groups, communities or regions
whose needs for legal services are not met, particularly where such
groups have distinct cultures, traditions or languages or have been
victims of past discrimination, Governments, professional
associations of lawyers and educational institutions should take
special measures to provide opportunities for candidates from
these groups to enter the legal profession and should ensure that
they receive training appropriate to the needs of their groups”
15
16. Conclusion
The success of the legal education regime
change envisaged in the LSRB 2011 may be
measured in part by the extent to which
minority groups such as the Travelling
Community are included, and provided for,
in the new legal educational framework.
