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
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.

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.
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.

MODULE 1: PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF EFFECTIVE TEACHING WITH ICT
Effective Teaching Principles
“For the computer to bring about a revolution in ….education, its introduction must be accompanied
by improvements in our understanding of learning and teaching.”
-Herbert Simon, Nobel Laureate
Information and communications technology (ICT) enables the teachers to effectively acquire,
create, evaluate, and share knowledge. It provides the digital tools to deliver the quality experience
that affects the motivation, engagement, confidence, performance and products of all learners
towards achieving the competency goals. The introduction of open software and Internet services are
meant to bring the enabling conditions for effective teaching.
Teacher effectiveness is critical to student achievement. Teaching effectiveness is an interaction
between subject matter knowledge and teaching ability. “When a teacher does this (process), it
results in this sort of student achievement (product).” “When a teacher causes this to happen
(process), it results in student learning (product).”
The Effective Teacher:
1. Make the learner focus and pursue clear learning goals. The teacher brings the outcome based
orientation in order to align the instructional method, content resource, and assessment
instruments to the achievement expectations defined for the students.
2. Present clear and simple content. The information has to build on what the students already
know. The teacher carefully selects learning material that is spirally designed, suitable to the
learner conditions, and aligned to the lesson objectives.
3. Engage the learner in learning by doing. Activity based learning is given time in building
contextual knowledge. The learning experience provides engaging and variety of activity to
sustain exploration and application. It provides the means for the learner to express freely and
to realize higher order thinking skills.
4. Teach with enthusiasm. The teacher shows excitement and passion in doing what will make the
learner successful. The teacher celebrates with the learners any achievement, and motivates
the learner to move forward based on lesson learned.
Information and communications technology provides the context to improve knowledge on the
subject-matter and to execute the teaching process that engages the student achieve the competency
outcomes.
The teacher’s challenge is for the teachers to discover, align and use the open software and
Internet services in doing the teaching tasks. A teaching modeling mindset has to be articulated and
observed in driving the use of open software and Internet services to deliver the outcome, to present
the content, to bring engagement, and to trigger excitement in teaching and learning.

The effective engagement of the teacher to execute the teaching process depends on the
available information and capabilities in the person of the teacher. Lee Shulman, in his article
“Knowledge and Teaching: Foundations of the New Reform, published by Harvard Educational
Review in 1987, identified the core knowledge to be possessed by an effective teacher.
1. Knowledge of subject matter content
2. Knowledge of general pedagogical principles and strategies
3. Knowledge of learners, their characteristics, and how they learn
4. Knowledge of educational context
5. Knowledge of education goals, purposes and values.
Looking at the categories of teacher knowledge, here are some ideas on how the knowledge
are to be demonstrated by the teacher in the context of ICT use.
Knowledge of subject matter content is demonstrated by the ability of the teacher to present
clear and accurate information and logical ideas of the topic being taught. It includes the
competence to identify, analyze and differentiate appropriate content materials for the subject-
matter to be studied by the learner. And the capability to provide logical and precise answers and
reference materials to address the questions and problems poised on the subject-matter at any
situation.
Knowledge of general pedagogical principles and methods is demonstrated by the ability of the
teacher to design instruction in order to deliver the learning requirements of achieving prescribed
the learning competency of the curriculum. It includes the competencies to specify the tactical
procedures and the manner to acquire and use the re-usable digital resources in delivering the
teaching methodology. It also calls for the capability to realize an assessment framework to
measure the effective value of the instructional strategy with the use of interactive learning
technologies.
Knowledge of learners, their characteristics, and how they learn is demonstrated by the ability
of the teachers to define benchmarking model, and to formulate the pre-assessment instrument to
baseline the learner condition to build on towards the achievement of the targeted learning
competencies. It is also shown in the manner by which the teacher structured the learning model
to match learner’s ability to achieve the learning competency.
Knowledge of education context is demonstrated by the ability of the teacher to understand
and work around the constraints of the learning environment. It includes the competence to
properly appreciate the people, policy, process, technology and culture components of educational
context.
Knowledge of education goals, purposes and values is demonstrated by the ability of the
teachers to articulate the basic education curriculum learning competency in the design of the
instructional plan and learning evaluation. It includes the competencies to develop the technology
enabled learning events that realize quality education for all, and the positive values of the
community.
The availability of the core knowledge is a pre-requisite for the proper appreciation of the
teachers in using information and communications technology to realize acquisition and
presentation of content, to support the delivery of the instructional procedure, and to fill-the gaps
of education by providing the digital context to bring about instruction and learning

ICT Use Principles in Learning
“The goal of technology integration is not just for teachers to show off new toys but to put technology
into the hands of students, and have them participate in higher level thinking, collaboration, and
project based learning.”
-Matthew Needleman
Los Angeles Unified School District
The value of using information and communications technology in teaching depends on the
underlying principles to justify the integrative use in learning. It provides the rationalization in
modeling instruction in the context of using computer software and Internet services.
Learning with ICT is to bring variety of instructional events and contextual experiences to
realize discovering, exploring comparing, collaborating, networking, doing, making, building,
arranging, figuring out, reflecting, sharing, publishing, evaluating, feed backing, changing,
etc.... of learning for all.
Learning with ICT brings information for all to realize knowledge acquisition, knowledge
creation, and knowledge sharing in order to achieve the performance goals of the basic
education curriculum for all learners.
Learning that is delivered through the use of computer applications, Internet services, other
technology platforms. and multimedia learning content must bring the extension, enhancement
and fill-in the gaps of education inside or outside the school premises.
The computer software, Internet services and multimedia learning content need to be
appropriately aligned to the instructional and learning outcomes, sound teaching methods,
learners conditions, and safety requirements.
Goals Grid of Effective Teaching with ICT
The goals grid is a brainstorming tool to identify the desired end and action to be pursued. The
goals are identified by posting and responding to the following:
1. What do you want that you don't have? (Achieve)
2. What do you want that you already have? (Preserve)
3. What don't you have that you don't want? (Avoid)
4. What do you have now that you don’t want? (Eliminate)
ACTIVITY: Teaching with ICT Goals Grid
With your experience and knowledge in performing the teaching tasks, identify the goals you seek to
realize in using ICT for teaching and learning.

Process & Product - Effective Teaching Model with ICT
“KNOWLEDGE is of two kinds… we know the subject ourselves, or we know where we can find
the information on it.”
-Samuel Johnson
What is learning? It is a process that results changes in the human understanding, human
behaviour and in the human capabilities to function or perform – (competency).
What is teaching? It is the process of creating and facilitating the events that affects learners
in their way to achieve learning. (performance)
The structured modeling of the learning and teaching process must clearly elaborate the goals,
the input, the procedures, products, and the means to validate-verify in order to deliver and measure
the performance expectations for all learners. Effective teaching model is not just implementing the
use of textbook in order to learn. It is not just bringing the learner in front of the teacher to
remember what are told to be known. It is defining and executing the learning events that build the
ability of the learner to acquire, to create, and to share knowledge. It is providing variety of active
experiences to make the learner deliver the product that actualized the learning competency goals.

The challenge of effective teaching with ICT is how to bring the learning events that put
emphasis on interactivity or learning by doing. It is how to use the digital tools to improve, enhance
and optimize the instructional methodology that is normally supported by non-digital learning
resources. The ICT integration in teaching has to focus on making computer software and Internet
services as efficient and effective conditions to deliver the performance outcome expected by the
curriculum.
11. 11 OPENDESK TOOLKIT
The proper embedding of ICT use to deliver content and activity depends on the logical
definition and relationship between the learning goal, resource input, choice of instructional strategy
or methodology, the targeted product, and the means to validate and verify. It is in this context that
the teacher has to appraise the value of the acquired software and Internet services to become
valuable source of input and activity platform to deliver the learning results for all learners.

MODULE 2: PLAN, DESIGN, EXECUTE & EVALUATE ICT BASED LEARNING
The effective use in teaching of information and communications technology depends on the
planned design of the instructional content and procedures. The application of the open software and
Internet services to the teaching process must be consistently aligned to the defined outcomes,
methodology, content, and metrics. The assembled digital instructional materials must be reviewed to
match the requirements of both formative and summative evaluation. The following are the key items
to be concretized in the various stages of instructional planning and design. It is based on the Principles
of Instructional Design by Gagne, Briggs and Wagner.
Instructional Planning and Design: Components and Stages
• The INSTRUCTIONAL GOAL speaks of the expected state of accomplishment to be realized by the
learners based on the targeted competency defined in the basic education curriculum.
• The INSTRUCTIONAL ANALYSIS defines the knowledge and skills to be acquired and performed by
the learners in order to accomplish the instructional goal. It lists down topics to be mastered.
• The ENTRY BEHAVIOUR identifies the pre-requisite level of understanding, ability and attitude of
the learner. It provides the profile of what the students already know, and what to build on.
• The PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES define the criterion references to properly measure the learner’s
achievement of the instructional goals. It provides the means to validate and verify results.
• The INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS speak of the strategy to deliver the performance objectives. It
involves the selected instructional activities to engage the learner.
• The INSRUCTIONAL MATERIALS are digital learning materials which are reviewed to support the
content and process requirements of the instructional method.
• The FORMATIVE EVALUATION is the means to measure the learning accomplishment of the learner
after the execution of the planned instruction. It done through the conduct of written tests
and activity output assessment using a performance rubric.
• The SUMMATIVE EVALUATION is to measure the total learning accomplishment of the learner
through the conduct of the National Achievement Test based on DepEd PLC.
