The document discusses the present tense in English, including the present continuous and present simple tenses.
The present continuous is used to describe actions happening at or around the time of speaking, such as "I'm studying" or "She's having a bath." The present simple is used for permanent or repeated actions like "I come from Spain" or "I get up at 6am every day."
Some verbs like "know" and "believe" are generally not used in the continuous tense, but exceptions exist like "I'm seeing Mary tomorrow." The document provides examples to illustrate the differences between these two tenses.

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.

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.

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

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
1. THE PRESENT TENSE
A) THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS
* We use the present continuous when we talk about something which is happening at the time
of speaking.
e.g. - Please don't make so much noise, I'm studying.
- 'Where's Margaret?' 'She's having a bath.'
* We also use the present continuous when we talk about an action which is happening around
the time of speaking, but not necessarily exactly at the time of speaking.
e.g. - Tom and Ann are talking and drinking in a café.
- Tom says: I'm reading an interesting book at the moment. (Tom is not reading the
book at the time of speaking. He means that he has begun the book and hasn't finished it yet. He is in
the middle of reading it).
- Have you heard about Tom? He is building his own house. (But it doesn't necessarily
mean that Tom is doing it at the moment of speaking.)
* We often use the present continuous when we talk about a period around the present. For
example: today, this season, etc...
e.g. - 'You're working hard today.' 'Yes, I have a lot to do.'
- Tom isn't playing football this season.
* We use the present continuous when we talk about changing situations:
e.g. - The population of the world is rising very fast.
- Is your English getting better?.
B) THE PRESENT SIMPLE
* For something which is permanently true:
e.g. - I come from Spain. We live in Salamanca.
- Where do you come from?
- The earth goes round the sun.
* For repeated actions or habits:
e.g. - I get up at six o'clock every day.
- What time do you usually get up?
- How often do you go to the cinema?
* When you make a suggestion, you can say: 'Why don't you.....?'
e.g. - 'I'm tired.? 'Why don't you go to bed early?'
2. C) NOTE:
* Some verbs are used only in simple tenses. For example, you cannot say 'I am knowing'. You
can only say 'I know'. Here is a list of verbs which are not normally used in continuous tenses. But there
are exceptions, and if they become an activity, they can be used in the continuous tense. For example:
I'm seeing Mary tomorrow night; In this case 'seeing' = 'meeting'.
want like belong know suppose remember
need love see realise mean forget
prefer hate hear believe understand seem
have (when the meaning is 'possess')
think (when the meaning is 'believe')
* Note the difference between these verbs:
listen hear
look see
watch see
'Listen, look, watch' are deliberate activities, and can use the continuous forms.
e.g. I'm listening to the radio.
'Hear, see' are not deliberate activities, and do not usually use the continuous forms.
* Study this explanation and compare the examples:
Present continuous (I am doing) Present Simple (I do)
Use the present continuous to Use the present simple
talk about something which is to talk about things in
happening at or around the general or things which
time of speaking: happen repeatedly:
- The kettle is boiling. Can you - Water boils at 100 º C.
turn it off, please?

language are you speaking?
- Silvia is in Britain for three months - Most people learn to swim when they're children.
She's learning English
- I'm living with some friends - My parents live in London: They have been
until I can find a flat there for 20 years.
- That machine isn't working. - That machine doesn't work.. It hasn't worked
It broke down this morning for years.
