Spiritual community (eco-village) Divya LokaMaharani Maria
Golden domed temples and tastefully landscaped lawns have replaced dilapidated wooden houses in the riverside region of Nizhny Novgorod. A picturesque monastery complex now exists where there used to be an abandoned village. About a decade ago, a handful of Russian Hindu monks led by Swami Vishnudevanand laid the foundation of Divya Loka Ashram. They sought to expand the reach of Sanatana Dharma and to lead a life guided by the Vedas.

The history of education in the Indian subcontinent began with teaching of traditional elements such as Indian religions, Indian mathematics, Indian logic at early Hindu and Buddhist centers of learning such as Taxila (in modern-day Pakistan) and Nalanda (in India) before the Islamic era.

Ramakrishna Mission Empowering Lives Through Education.pdfAmit Kumar
The passing of Swami Smarananda, the 16th president of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission, marks a profound loss for the spiritual community. A life dedicated to service and the teachings of Sri Ramakrishna, Swami Smarananda exemplified the Mission's core values of compassion, wisdom, and selfless action. His lifelong commitment to the publications at Advaita Ashrama and his leadership at institutions including the Ramakrishna Mission Saradapitha underscore his unwavering dedication to education and spiritual growth. As we honour his legacy, we also celebrate the enduring spirit of the Ramakrishna Mission. Founded in 1897 by Swami Vivekananda, the Mission has expanded globally, bringing the message of Vedanta philosophy and practical spirituality to countless lives. This article explores the history, work, and enduring impact of the Ramakrishna Mission.
Ramakrishna Mission - Branches and Locations
The Ramakrishna Mission has spread its message of spirituality and service around the world. With over 200 centers worldwide, its reach extends from bustling cities to remote rural communities. Each center is a hub of diverse activities, embodying Swami Vivekananda's vision of practical Vedanta. Centers may include temples, educational institutions, hospitals, rural development centers, and cultural centers. This global network reflects the Mission's commitment to spiritual growth, education, and selfless service across cultural boundaries.
Examples of Prominent Centers:
• India: The Mission's presence is strong in its homeland, with Math and Ashrama centers in cities like Kolkata, Chennai, and Mumbai along with smaller centers in various towns and villages.
• United States: The Vedanta Society of New York, founded by Swami Vivekananda in 1898, and over 20 other centers spread throughout the country.
• Global Presence: Centers in Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and many other nations.
The Ramakrishna Mission thoughtfully adapts its activities to the local needs of each region, demonstrating sensitivity to the prevailing cultural context. However, a common thread unites all centres: the dedication to uplifting humanity through spiritual growth, education, and selfless service.
Ramakrishna Mission - Education & Admissions

He envisioned education as a means to empower individuals to serve society with compassion and selflessness.

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.

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
