The document discusses using technology tools to teach STEM education and 21st century skills. It focuses on how tools can help teach the 4Cs of communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking as part of STEM lessons. Several types of tools are presented for each of the 4Cs, including visualized articles, flow charts, timelines, and data visualizations. Infographics are highlighted as a tool that can help students interpret, critique and create representations of data, developing important critical thinking, creativity and communication skills.

It’s really confusing what you mean by ICT (or just using technology in the classroom?) Just see if you can clarify your hook…
Showing two sides is vague and there’s not research question…and since there’s no research question, the thesis doesn’t really make sense…
Some things in the background need clear citations…
Definition of terms like a glossary? Look at the examples again…
It almost seems like whoever wrote the first four or five pages wasn’t in class with us when we worked on how to integrate a quote, how to explain and cite a quote and the format of an argumentative paragraph (topic sentence, discussion, example, analysis, conclusion…)…lots of claims have no citations…
Organization
· Ordering of support is appropriate (saves the best reason for last)
· Coherence (use of transition techniques between paragraphs and transitions between ideas; everything clearly ties back to the thesis statement)

Watch your indenting…your topic sentences need to be clear topic sentences…and it needs to be clear what your real arguments are…transitions between paragraphs and ideas make your paper even more confusing because they’re not related to the thesis statement (which isn’t clear either)…This is an argumentative essay with a background paragraph…it’s what you’ve done before…
Format/Citations
· Accurate citation of sources
· Gives credit to original source when quoting a quote
· Quotes integrated into text smoothly
· Quotes adequately explained/have context
· APA formatting is correct and consistent
· Reference page is in proper format and accurate

APA formatting is close, but not quite right…
Orphan quotes in the introduction…
Also, no block formatting…I fixed the first paragraph, so you can fix the rest…
Quotes not cited or integrated properly…sometimes the word (quote) but no quote?
Some arguments don’t even have citations…some quotes used more than once…oof!
Watch formatting on the reference page as well (check the models for when to indent)

E-Learning in Maths - Research, practical tips and discussionStephen McConnachie
Plenary presentation from conference on 23rd October 2014. Overview of relevant research, practical frameworks for designing and evaluating learning activities (TPACK and the Activity Types taxonomy), and a quick look at the SAMR model.
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.

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

9. Communication
They promote the 4Cs and when students…
Interpret: They learn/practice how to read and understand
graphs, charts, diagrams, and maps; find patterns in data and
interpret meaning; and argue from evidence to support their
interpretation. (Critical thinking)
Critique: They learn/practice how to use evidence to support an
argument. (Creativity, communication)
Create: They learn/practice how to analyze data, find and
explain patterns in data, and decide how to visually represent
that data. (Critical thinking, creativity, communication,
collaboration)

10. INFOgraphics
What are they?
Information graphics reveal the hidden, explain the
complex and illuminate the obscure. Constructing
visual representation of information is NOT mere
translation of what can be read to what can be
seen. It entails filtering the information, establishing
relationships, discerning patterns and representing
them in a manner that enables a consumer of that
information construct meaningful knowledge.
