Masie Learning 2014- Learning Portfolios: Creating a Culture of LearningJennifer Hopwood
The description from the conference program:
With learning environments changing to incorporate personalization and micro modules, we faced the challenge of how to track and assess learners' experiences. To meet this need, we have implemented learning portfolios statewide. These portfolios allow staff to create their own learning plans that fit their professional development interests, Many libraries are also exploring the use of personal learning networks to connect learners and promote collaboration. We'll share the lessons we've learned about developing, implementing, and leveraging learning portfolios.

My Personal Learning Network: PresentationElaine Hall
This presentation outlines the process of developing my own personal learning network (PLN). Includes mission statement, goals, scope, objectives, resources, management strategies and successes. This was pulled together as a class project but way overdue for its application to professional development, lifelong learning, and scholastic endeavors. While complex in its current status, though, the PLN is constantly transformative - it will grow, it will change, and it will evolve just as the people, situations, and understandings within my life will also change. That's the beauty of an active personal learning network!
Presentation given to the Graduate Studies Information Exchange group which included both faculty (graduate coordinators) and staff (graduate assistants).
Do your online courses tend to have higher withdrawal rates than their traditional or hybrid counterparts? Sense of
isolation is often cited as a reason for lower retention rates in online courses; therefore, an abundance of literature
advocates the benefits of building a close-knit online learning community. The question is, how do you build a
true community that inspires peer-to-peer learning? In this session, presenters will demonstrate ways they have
successfully leveraged technology to build this type of community, resulting in a decreased withdrawal rate (from
17 percent to 4 percent)in an actual online course. Specific strategies for using synchronous and asynchronous
tools to create more involved learning communities will be discussed to offer participants new approaches for
engaging and retaining online students.

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
