The document summarizes Madeleine Ross's process for creating different elements of a magazine production. For the front cover, she edited a photo and added a blue background, title, and other design elements. For an advert, she enhanced photos and added text. For interior pages, she laid out photos and shapes, added quotes and page numbers. She created a double-page spread in Photoshop then placed text in InDesign. For another page, she added a flowing title and accompanying images and headings.
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.

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

2. Process: Front Cover
I began with making the
background of the cover blue,
which I took from Eleanor’s shirt,
using the eyedropper tool, to link
everything together.
I then placed my photograph, and
decided to edit it slightly by
increasing the brightness and
contrast, and also adding a blur
filter around Eleanor.
I then added my
magazine title, and the
black band at the
bottom. This was easy
as during the
experimental planning
stage, I decided on the
fonts and colors I would
use. I added the band
by using the rectangle
tool and sizing it up.
Then using the text tool, I
added extra text to the
front, keeping with the
white and black theme,
and coloring text where it
fits best. I had to change
some things around as I
went on, but I ended up
putting them in good
spaces.
Finally, to finish off I
added a barcode, and
the price and issue
number down at the
bottom.
3. Process: Advert
First of all, I selected the eyes
in the picture, and using the
masking tool with the colour
overlay, I made them more
vibrant and green. To make
the colours warmer, I also
upped the contrast and the
warmth in the adjustments
tab.
Then, I cut out the
picture of the fox,
and like the main
picture, I upped the
contrast and warmth
so it would match
with the red of the
main picture.
Because some of the cutting
out I did didn’t blend as well
as I liked into the back, I
added some leaves to match
the autumnal theme. I also
upped the contrast and hue
of these to make the orange
and purples more
pronounced.
Finally, I added an
image of the perfume
bottle, which I edited
by using the bevel
tool and the outer
glow tool in the “fx”
tab, and added the
name and slogan in
the centre.
4. Process: Page 1/3
To start, I added all the
pictures I wanted to use, and
edited them accordingly. I used
the eclipse tool to get the
circle effect, and I used the
filter gallery to create the
plastic effect on the clothes
hanger picture. I placed them
in the areas I wanted,
experimenting with size and
layout till I decided on this
one.
To add some extra
colour, I added different
shapes and made them
different colours, making
sure they complimented
the tones already there
in the images and
background. To make
them less aggressive, I
made them less
transparent, depending
on the colour, usually
between 50-75%.
I then added the text, which
are quotes from my article,
and highlighted the words to
make them more pronounced
so the reader will see these
as important and powerful
words.
Finally I added the
page number and
“TEMPO”
underneath the
border.
5. Process: Double Page
In photoshop, using a portrait A3 format, I created the background for
the article, so that I could easily add it into In-Design where I could
place my text over the top. I added my pictures and shapes around the
corners, in co-ordination with where my topics in the article would
land. I also messed with the transparency because I didn’t want the
images to be too imposing and take away from the article.
I then added text using In-Design to get the column effect.
To get the column effect, I went to Layout, Margins and
Columns and selected 6 columns.
Once I had added all my text over the top and made sure it
was how I wanted it, I saved it as a jpeg and exported it to
my files.
6. Process: What should you be…
I started by adding the title, and adding some
shape to it to give the impression its flowing,
and the reader some intention a to in what way
they should read the title. I then added my
headings and subheadings, changing the colour
and font to make them distinguishable, and
added images to accompany them.
Then, to keep with
the theme, I added
shapes into the
corners with similar
colours displayed
throughout the
magazine.
Finally I added the
page number and
“TEMPO” under the
boarder.
