The Harmful Effect of Personal Technology to Students
American Intercontinental University
November 27, 2016
Abstract
This paper discusses the subject matter that students are being harmed by their overdependence on personal digital technology. It highlights four main points to support this argument and offers one counter argument. It concludes by stating that in as much as technology does harm students, it has contributed to the quality of education.
Overdependence of personal digital technology by students should be monitored and regulated as they are adversely affected.
First, statistics report that three in four teens (74%) aged 12-17 own cell phones, tablets and other devices (Pew Research Centre, 2013). This is alarming as one wonders what time do they get to their studies and even socializing. Students’ overdependence on technology adversely affects their social skills which enhance interaction and communication with others.
The second argument is that students visit social media sites multiple times in a day and this means that they do not get to their school assignments and if they do, it is not ...

Usage of YouTube Content among Chennai Urban Women.pdfPugalendhiR
Abstract: The majority of YouTube users are college students, therefore it's critical to understand their usage patterns,
goals, and any potential psychological and behavioural effects. In order to determine the current trends in YouTube usage
among female undergraduate students in Chennai City, this study will examine the devices used, memberships subscribed
to, purposes used, and identity formation time spent networking, negative impacts experienced, and educational usage.
Data from a survey were analysed with SPSS-Statistic 19.0 software, and the findings were compared to the examined
literature. According to the survey, students' YouTube networking habits will eventually win out over parents' and
teachers' attitudes, and although while cell phones are currently prohibited in many college buildings, they will
undoubtedly be utilised in classrooms in the near future. The discoveries provide the current study in this area more depth.
Information Communication Technologies are not gendered biased.Its usage is equally effective for both males as well as females. its effectiveness and impact depend on how the person uses it. This particular ppt. tells its readers about the power of ICT and how women can use it for their empowerment while performing various roles which she performs during her life.

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

Editor's Notes
It’s based on a study I did over the last few years for my PhD thesis, which focused on refugee students who were distance learners on a UK-based Master’s programme in Politics and International Relations.
“Female cyclists are only allowed in parks or on beaches and only with the presence of their guardian. Women aren’t allowed to use their bicycles as a means of transport.”
According to Nussbaum, the capabilities in their untrained form are basic. Once trained, they become internal capabilities. To fully exercise these internal capabilities, in Nussbaum’s view, people require sufficient material resources and favourable material, social and political circumstances. Then, the internal capabilities become combined capabilities.
In everyday language, the concept of a capability is a personal skill or ability that can be learned and developed. In the capabilities approach, the notion of capabilities goes beyond that to include freedoms that are socially, politically and economically enabled. In my study, I found that the barriers related to these latter freedoms had the greatest impact on the students’ capability to remain engaged in their online learning. I argue that it is these barriers that we need to mitigate if we want to keep marginalised students engaging online.
In my study, I also used this four-dimensional online engagement framework, which outlines the areas of online student engagement typically discussed in the literature: emotional, behavioural, social and collaborative, and cognitive. My 4D framework is adapted from the Online Engagement Framework of Petrea Redmond et al (2018).I’ll now discuss my findings in relation to each of these dimensions.
Emotional engagement involves having a positive attitude towards one’s studies and feeling motivated. The constraints that prevented the students in my study from engaging positively included: trauma, fear and anxiety, and worries about money, food and accommodation. Several had mental health problems, such as depression.
And so, to foster emotional engagement, my key recommendation is to be trauma aware. This means: anticipating possible trauma triggers and not asking students direct questions about their experiences that could re-trigger trauma; giving them space to step back from their studies when things become overwhelming; fostering supportive peer interaction; and responding with warmth to students when they reach out for information or help, rather than simply saying, “You’ll find the answer in the course handbook.”
Behavioural engagement means doing the work that is required on the course, such as participating in discussions and submitting assignments. For many online students, this can be like juggling with fire. All the students in my study struggled to manage their “lifeload”, which is the sum of a person’s pressures in life, such as family and work commitments, and where applicable, navigating the asylum system. One of my research participants experienced a period of homelessness, in Berlin, in the winter. He nevertheless graduated with a full Master’s degree.
The key recommendation for mitigating the barriers to behavioural engagement is to provide flexibility. Many students will need extensions for assignments at some point in their learning journey. The processes for declaring mitigating circumstances and having extensions approved need to be simple and supportive. Beyond this, some students whose circumstances are particularly difficult may need time-out in between modules, and they would benefit from a programme structure comprising a suite of stackable micro-credentials, rather than a rigid, linear degree structure.
Social and collaborative engagement is about students learning together with their peers and teachers. Some of my research participants had anxiety about not belonging, based on previous experiences, where they had encountered persecution and hostility due to intersectional characteristics such as ethnicity, religion, gender and sexual orientation. The students in my study longed for a feeling of mutual respect and recognition, but did not always experience it, and for some, this was a significant barrier to their participation in collaborative knowledge construction activities online.
My recommendation for fostering social and collaborative engagement is to create accountable spaces for students to think together respectfully. This involves, for example, inviting students to collaboratively produce ground rules for discussion, and providing sensitive moderation of discussions by members of the learning community. It requires the creation of a warm, hospitable learning environment and the modelling of a kind, respectful approach to communication with and between students.
Cognitive engagement is often seen as most important by teachers. We want students to think critically and reflectively, because that’s the whole point of them coming to university. The constraints here for refugee students, and indeed for many international students, include lack of familiarity with the nature of the critical and reflective thinking expected of them, and a fear of reprisal for articulating their lived experience, opinions and prior knowledge if these run counter to the narrative of the course. Some students in my study self-censored for this reason, and attempted to “play the game”, saying and writing what they thought was expected of them, which conflicted with their desire to genuinely engage with the intellectual challenges of their courses.
The recommendation here is to provide safe spaces for active inquiry. This is similar to the accountable spaces I talked about earlier, but also involves focusing on the way teachers give feedback to students. Students need to feel safe in expressing their emerging understanding, and to be able to take risks by learning to think in new ways without fear of being penalised for expressing contrary views.
Finally, a striking finding from my study was that when students engaged in any one of the four dimensions, this typically fuelled their engagement in other dimensions too. Therefore, it follows that, by supporting students to engage emotionally, we can increase the chances that they will engage more deeply along the social, cognitive and behavioural dimensions. The same goes for each dimension in relation to all of the others.
In conclusion, here is a summary of my recommendations for being more inclusive in our efforts to increase students’ online engagement.
