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
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.

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.

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.

2. History is the study of things that
happened in the past.
History tells us things about how our
ancestors lived: the food they ate, the
clothes they wore and the tools they
used.
History also tells us about important
events, like the discovery of a new land
or the invention of a new machine.
The things that happened in the past
affect our world today.
History helps us to understand the
present.
4. PREHISTORY
Prehistory is the oldest and longest
period of human history.
It began more than one million years
ago with the origins of the human race.
It ended about 5,500 years ago, with
the invention of writing.
5. Paleolithic (hunters)
Human prehistory began with the
Paleolithic Period.
•During this time, human beings were
nomads who moved from place to
place.
•They lived by hunting and fishing,
and by gathering plant products, like
fruits, seeds, nuts and roots.
•They also learned to use fire and to

6.
7. Neolithic (farmers)
The Neolithic Period began about
10,000 years ago.
•During this period, human beings
learned to cultivate plants and
raise animals.
•They became more sedentary
because they didn’t need to move
around to find food.
8. •Neolithic peoples built villages and towns.
•They also manufactured products, like
cloth, baskets and pottery.
9. The Metal Ages
The Metal Ages began about 6,000
years ago.
•During the Metal Ages people
started using metals, like copper, tin,
bronze and iron, to make tools and
weapons.
•People often used precious metals,
like gold and silver, to make jewellery.
10. • They also used wheels to create new
forms of land transport.
• People started building the first
cities.
12. Paleolithic period
Some of the most important discoveries
from the Paleolithic Period are cave
paintings.
These paintings can tell us many things:
_ Paleolithic people hunted large
mammals, such as bison, mammoths and
horses.
_ They camped along large rivers and
near seacoasts.
Some of the most famous cave paintings
in the world are in the Altamira caves in
Santillana del Mar (Cantabria).
14. Neolithic period
Neolithic people built the first villages
and towns on the peninsula.
They cultivated wheat, oats and other
grains. They also raised herds of goats
and sheep.
People learned to weave natural fibres to
make cloth.
They also baked clay pots in kilns to make
them stronger.

17. Metal ages
During the Metal Ages, people started
using large blocks of stone called
megaliths to build monuments. The most
important megalithic monuments in
Spain are called dolmens.
19. ANCIENT HISTORY
Ancient history began with the invention of
writing, about 5,500 years ago (the first
writing system was inventing in Mesopotamia).
It ended with the fall of the Roman
Empire, about 4,000 years later.
In ancient times, major civilizations developed
along large rivers in
Mesopotamia, Egypt, India and China.
Later, the ancient civilizations of Greece and
Rome developed along the coasts of the
Mediterranean Sea.
20. Ancient Greece
Greek civilization began to develop
about 3,000 years ago.
The ancient Greeks were farmers, but
they also founded prosperous cities, like
Athens and Sparta.
Ancient Greeks invented democracy as a
new form of government. They were
famous for their interest in philosophy,
science and art.
21. The Roman Empire
The city of Rome was founded in 753
B.C.E.
Rome had a powerful army. They
conquered many territories in Europe,
Asia and North Africa.
The Romans spoken a language called
Latin. Many modern languages, like
Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese,
come from Latin.

impressive monuments, like temples,
amphitheatres, circuses, bridges and
aqueducts.

23. SPAIN IN ANCIENT TIMES
Iberians
and Celts Roman Hispania
Phoenicians, Greeks and
Carthaginians
24. Iberians and Celts
Two groups of people lived on the Iberian
Peninsula: Iberians and Celts.
The Iberians lived along the
Mediterranean coast. The Celts occupied
the northern and central areas of the
peninsula.
25. Both groups lived in small towns and
cities that were built on hills, with walls
around them for protection.
Most Iberian and Celtic people lived by
growing crops and raising animals, but
there were also many merchants and
artisans.
26. Phoenicians, Greeks and Carthaginians
The Phoenicians, Greeks and Carthaginians
established colonies along the eastern and
southern coasts of the Iberian
Peninsula, places like Ampurias, Cartagena
and Cádiz.
They were especially interested in buying
metals, such as silver, tin and copper.
They introduced the Iberians the use of
money.
27. Roman Hispania
The Romans invaded the Iberian
Peninsula and conquered the Iberians,
Celts and Carthaginians. Then they
named their new territory Hispania.
• Hispania was part of the Roman Empire
for more than 500 years. During that
time, people in Hispania spoke Latin and
followed Roman laws and customs.
• Today, we can see many Roman
monuments all over Spain, such as the
aqueduct in Segovia, the theatre in
Mérida .
30. THE MIDDLE AGES
The Middle Ages began in the 5th
century C.E. and ended in the 15th
century. During this time, Christianity
became the main religion in the old
Roman territories. A new religion, Islam,
also appeared during the Middle Ages.
31. The Middle Ages in Western
Europe
• In the beginning of the Middle Ages, there were many
wars in Western Europe. This made it difficult for
merchants to travel, so commerce decreased. Cities
became smaller and poorer and many people moved to
the countryside
• The Catholic religion became important in all aspects
of daily life.
• Society was divided into three main groups: knights,
clergy and peasants.
• A new social and economic system developed, called
feudalism.
• In the 13th century, medieval cities started growing
and becoming prosperous again.
• Beautiful new palaces, cathedrals, town halls and
other public buildings were also built.

34. Muslim Spain
In 711 C.E., Muslim armies conquered a
big part of the Spanish territory. It
was called Al-Andalus.
35. Al-Andalus was one of the most advanced
societies in Europe.
The Muslims of Al-Andalus built many
beautiful monuments, such as the
Alhambra in Granada and the Great
Mosque of Córdoba.
36.
37. Christian Spain
• Muslims didn’t conquer the mountainous
areas in the north of the Iberian
Peninsula. In those areas, many Christians
lived and established independent
kingdoms.
• Between the 9th and the 15th centuries,
the Christian kingdoms expanded to the
south. Eventually, they reconquered the
Iberian Peninsula.
• Granada was the last Muslim kingdom on
the peninsula. It fell to the Christians in
1492.
38. • In the Christian kingdoms of the north, most
people lived in the countryside, in small towns
and villages. There weren’t many big cities.
• They built many castles, cathedrals, churches
and monasteries that we can see today. A
good example is the Gothic Cathedral of
Burgos.
