How many times have you attended a training or sat in a classroom and struggled to maintain interest and focus? You then wonder if anyone will notice that you are not taking notes, but rather answering emails on your laptop or phone? Perhaps you’re on social media? The same may be true during parts of our RYE student orientations. An observation, when I first joined Rotary, that too often the inbound and outbound orientations were too long, too much talking done by Rotarians and perhaps too much repetition of information. What we know in the field of education is that when learners are active and engaged, their learning and recall of the information is much improved. Activities or “games” can be impactful, learning is improved and everyone enjoys the experience. Come and discuss a wide range of engaging action orientated activities for your program.

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
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.

2. Course Objectives
Review basic parliamentary principles:
A. Learn & practice main & 7 subsidiary motions
B. Talk about the rules governing debate on
motions
C. Learn how to use order of precedence
3. Agenda
• Introduction to Parliamentary Procedures
• Handling a Main Motion
• Order of Precedence of Subsidiary Motions
• Seven Subsidiary Motion
4. Why Have Parliamentary Procedures?
• Parliamentary rules take into account the often
conflicting interests that develop during
meetings, and they provide procedures that
ensure decisions are made fairly
• Helps groups conduct meetings in an orderly
fashion
5. Who uses parliamentary procedure?
• Large groups who need to maintain order at
their meetings:
▫ Toastmasters Clubs, Districts, Board of Directors
▫ Charitable organizations such as Kiwanis or Order
of Foresters
▫ Condominium corporations
▫ Union meetings
▫ Board of Directors
▫ City Council
▫ Parliaments of Ontario and Canada
6. Principles of Parliamentary Rules
• The votes of all voting members are counted
equally
• Absent members and members holding minority
opinions have rights
▫ Free and fair debate
▫ To know the meaning of the motion
• Majority has the right to decide and the minority
to be protected and speak on the issue
• Facilitate transaction of business in good faith
7. Quiz: Define the following…
• Quorum
• Constitution
• Bylaws
• Standing rules
• Motion
• Presiding officer
8. Basic Definitions
• Quorum – minimum number of members required to
transact business
• Constitution – basic regulations governing the
organization (name, purpose, members, officers, etc.)
• Bylaws – fundamental rules of the organization that
are amended infrequently
• Standing rules – details concerning administration of
organization that are easily changed or overridden
• Motion – formal proposal that an action be taken
• Presiding officer – meeting leader who sees that rules
are observed
9. Six Steps in Handling a Main Motion
1. Member makes a motion: I move that…
2. Another member seconds the motion: I second the
motion.
3. Presiding officer places motion before group: It is
moved and seconded that…
4. Motion is open for debate: the maker of the
motion is asked if he or she wants to speak
5. Motion is put to a vote: Are you ready to vote?
Restatement of the motion & how the vote will be
taken. All those in favour… All those opposed…
6. Presiding officer announces result: The motion is
adopted or lost
10. Voting
• If the vote is tied, it is lost
• Presiding officer does not vote, unless his vote
affects the results
• For a tie vote, a Chair can vote in favour
ensuring that the motion is passed
• If there is one more vote in favour of a motion,
the Chair can vote against it making a tie so the
motion is defeated
11. Exercise 1
• Give a short simple statement proposing a
course of action
• Second the motion
• Speak in favour or against the motion
• Call for the vote by the chairman & re-statement
of the motion
• All members of the group should participate
• No amendments or others types of motions
• Time limit: 10 minutes
12. Subsidiary Motions
• Only one motion can be discussed at a time
▫ Seven subsidiary motions help the assembly to
modify, delay action on or get rid of a motion
▫ If a subsidiary motion is made, focus shifts to that
motion – it has a higher order of precedence
▫ Action must be taken on the pending motion
before discussing the main motion
▫ Each of the seven subsidiary motion has an order
of precedence or rank
13. Subsidiary Motions
1. Postpone indefinitely – group avoids direct vote
on main motion
2. Amend – wording of another motion is modified
3. Refer to committee – send to another group for
study
4. Postpone to a certain time – consider something
later
5. Limit or extend limits of debate
6. Close debate [previous question] – stop debate on
pending motion and vote
