TRAINING DEVELOPMENT MODELS
Training development models refer to the types of a process of education which aids in enhancing of the employees’ performances through a changed attitude, sharpened skills, gained knowledge and concepts which include (Jehanzeb, 2013);
1. Corporate university model. This model is a strategic tool of an educational process which helps a parent organization in carrying out activities that boosts the knowledge and learning of an individual as well as that of the organization which helps attain its objectives and has a long-term impact of the company’s stability and financial health.
Some of the strengths of using this model is that it provides a model that is powerful for people to embrace where people are compelled to renew their learning commitments. It offers a particular branding opportunity for an organization. The model also engages senior executives in the process of identifying a challenge in the organization and establishing the solution. However, the model also has some weaknesses which include criticism that the training does not involve real world scenarios and thus hard to apply to a real-life situation (Tannir, 2015).
2. Business-embedded model. It’s a dynamic and ever evolving model that aids in strategizing the direction of an organization, designing of products, structuring the versatility, ensuring products are well delivered and it is responsible for the outcomes.
However, some of the strengths of the business-embedded model is that it has a strategical direction which means that it provides a customized solution for its clients’ needs, competes for internal customers and understands the organization products cycle. The model also helps in the product design which employs the benchmarking among other innovative designs. Another strength of the business-embedded model is on product delivery where it offers a menu of learning options and delivers its training at the work site. However, some of the weaknesses of the model is that a lot of time is wasted during the employees training since some of them might take a while to understand some essential concepts (Zuraiju, 2017).
3. Change model. This model refers to the introduction and learning of new skills which involves a trainer introducing the skill, going through each example step by step on how to perform the skill, giving the trainee time to practice the new skill and finally monitoring if they have understood.
Some strengths of the change model is that it helps create a sense of urgency as to why some changes need to be done in an organization. Also, it helps in the creation of a guiding coalition, where the board agree on the change needed in a particular area of the company and can thus be implemented. Howev ...

We will study in depth, the Arduino program structure and we will learn more new terminologies used in the Arduino world. The Arduino software is open-source.
Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on 8-bit ATmega328P microcontroller. Along with ATmega328P, it consists other components such as crystal oscillator, serial communication, voltage regulator, etc. to support the microcontroller. Arduino Uno has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.
Arduino first and foremost is an open-source computer hardware and software company. The Arduino Communityrefers to the project and user community that designs and utilizes microcontroller-based development boards. These development boards are known as Arduino Modules, which are open-source prototyping platforms.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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

Editor's Notes
Just introductory slide. Move to next.
Why this session? Guiding students about procedures and other details regarding this year recruitment process. Also what MSPs are and why apply for the same.
Before starting, let’s see what world expects out of us. Not the industry but a common man. What he thinks of you as an CS/IT guy?
We are talking one apart from dancers, artists and sportsmen. According to the world, you belong to one of these category. Either you are an ranker and everyone expects a lot out of you or you are just an average guy who can format someone’s PC because you are an computer engineer and can code basic hello world.
Get practical. Wake up and get to know what exactly data structures or any other thing is there for? New algorithms, data structures, topologies, techniques are invented daily. Get into it. Why this? That’s it. The MSP program is about getting practical about all these. Getting the leader, manager, developer or evangelist out of you. This is what this platform is all about.Gabe Logan Newell is founder of Valve Corporation. The company behind Counter Strike and Steam
