The document discusses conventions used in alternative music magazine covers and contents. It describes using bold red and black titles to follow conventions while using full body shots of bands on the cover instead of headshots to seem less serious. Splashes are included to grab attention and drive sales. The contents page is kept simple with minimal text as younger readers prefer less text. A letter from the editor and band photos create involvement. Overall, the magazine follows conventions like darker colors but breaks up long blocks of text preferred by younger audiences.

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.
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.
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

Magazine evaluations
1. One typical convention of an alternative music
magazine cover I have used is a bold and
recognisable title in colours such as red and black as
these are common colours to use in alternative
music magazines, therefore I am following
convention. I did this because it creates a strong
brand identity for my magazine and the reader
creates a familiarity and emotional attachment to the
magazine and is therefore more likely to
continuously buy it. Another typical convention I have
used is using a musical artist on the front cover to
attract the audience – however one way in which I
have gone against convention is that I have done a
full body shot of the band as opposed to the typical
upper-body/head shot studio photography that most
magazines use. I have done this because a more laid
back and informal photograph shows that the
magazine is not as serious as other magazines –
which is key in attracting a younger audience as
younger audiences do want to read interesting and
fun music magazines to hold their attention. As well
as this, if my magazine was on sale next to these
magazines my unique photography may stand out
more to consumers and give it a competitive edge.
Another convention of a music magazine that I have
used splashes to further draw in the reader i.e the
chance to win tickets/reviews of live performances
as these are typical things that you expect from a
music magazine. I have done this because once the
main feature artist has already captured the
attention of the reader and these splashes would
further grab their attention and make them want to
buy the magazine.
2. I have not used many conventions when making my
contents page. For example, other alternative music
magazine have very cluttered and busy contents
pages, whereas I have kept mine simple and
concise as younger readers tend to ignore big
chunks of writing – therefore I have used as little
text as possible to hold their interest. Another
convention I have used is a letter from the editor,
while not all music magazine do this I chose to have
one in my magazine because it creates a bond with
reader as it addresses them directly – this makes
them feel involved and part of the magazine and as
if they are somehow involved. Another convention I
have used is a picture of my main cover feature
band to further capture the attention of the reader –
however one difference is that I have included
pictures of earphones and vinyl records. I have
done this because I wanted to further express that
my magazine is all about the music (new and old)
and the earphones represent the new, modern
music and the vinyl represents the older music. I
think this is effective because it shows that my
magazine will always be interesting because it
includes a variety of music from across the years
for those who appreciate older music, but also
includes lots about new music for the more modern
alternative fans.
3. One convention of an alternative music magazine I have
used is darker colours. I have done this as it is typical of
most alternative music magazines as most mainstream
pop magazines are brightly coloured so they do this to
show individuality. I decided to follow this convention
very closely to establish to consumers that my magazine
is in this genre and fits in. However, one way in which I
have differed from these other magazine spreads is I
have broken down my questions so that my writing is not
in one large block. I have done this because my target
audience is younger therefore they will as a rule not want
to read through large blocks of text to get the information
that they want, whereas if it is broken down they can just
read the parts that they are interested in without losing
interest. Furthermore, I have also used a bold title
including the name of the band and pictures of them to
grab the attention of the reader and know that this article
is all about this artist. I have done this as fans of the band
or artist are more likely to read on and find the spread
interesting if they know it is about a band they like. Also,
instead of using one big image I have used two smaller
images. I have done this so that the different images on
different angles create a sense of chaos and
disorganisation which adds to the point I am making
about how my cover band are. Also, my younger audience
would appreciate more images to look at along with the
text.
4. For the most part I think that I have achieved the necessary conventions of an alternative music magazine as I did
some audience research into what people expect from an alternative music magazine and this what they said:
“Be bold and make a statement”
“Lots of pictures”
“Bold fonts, dark colours, info about what is inside the magazine”
“Dark colours, band pictures, bold font”
“Live music reviews, interviews with bands about
controversial issues, album reviews”
“Interviews, reviews of CDs and gigs, merch”
I then asked: ‘Does this magazine meet those expectations?’
100% of the responses said ‘Yes’
