It is actually how would the readers response to the message of the writer. Without the writer making his work, there would not be readers. And out readers reading the writers' work, there would not be sense of having it. It is actually a vice-versa relationship where both should function according to their role.

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
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. Subjective vs. Objective
• When we refer to something as “subjective” we mean
that it pertains to the individual (the reader). A
subjective reading of a text is one in which emphasis is
placed on the attitudes, moods, and opinions of the
reader.
• When we refer to something as “objective” we mean
that it pertains to an object (the text) separate from
the individual (the reader). An objective reading of a
text is one that is uninfluenced by emotions or
personal prejudices.
• Reader-Response criticism offers a subjective, or
egocentric, reading of a text. Egocentrism refers to
anything that regards the self of the individual as the
center of all things.
3. What is Reader-Response?
• RR critics believe that a reader’s
interaction with the text gives the text its
meaning. The text cannot exist without
the reader.
• If a tree falls in the forest and no one is
around to hear it does it make a noise? If
a text sits on a shelf in a bookstore and no
one is around to read it, does the text
have meaning?
4. What is Reader-Response?
• RR criticism is NOT a free-for-all school of
thought where anything goes. RR criticism is
still a disciplined theory deserving of a careful
reading of the text.
• RR critics are focused on finding meaning in the
act of reading itself and examining the ways
individual readers or communities of readers
experience texts.
• The reader joins with the author to “help the
text mean.”
5. What is Reader-Response?
• A successful reader-response critic does not
just respond to a text—anyone can do that—
but analyzes his or her response, or the
responses of others.
• Our life experiences and the communities we
belong to greatly influence our reading of a text
• Because each reader will interact with the text
differently, the text may have more than one
valid interpretation.
6. READER-RESPONSE STYLISTICS
According to Jonathan Culler (1981), RR
examines the reader’s response to a text as a
response to a horizon of expectations. By a
horizon of expectations, is meant that there is
multiplicity of meanings of interpretations in a
text and these can be accessed by the reader
according to his or her level or literary
competence.
7. A reader’s literary competence is highly
informed by the social world in which a text is
produced as it usually has a shaping effect on his
or her interpretation of a such text.
In RR, there is an interaction between the
structure of the text and the reader’s response. It
evokes a situation where individual readers give
meaning to the text. This is because each reader
will interact with the text differently, as the text
may have more than one vivid interpretation.
8. RR theorists share two beliefs:
1. The role of the reader cannot be omitted
from our understanding of literature (unlike
New Critics who believe that the meaning of
a text is contained in the text alone).
2. Readers do not passively consume the
meaning presented to them by an objective
literary text. Instead, readers actively make
the meaning they find in literature.
9. Reader Response Theory, simply stated, is the
reader's response to literary text. Tyson (2006)
describes in Critical Theory Today the five types of
Reader Response theories and the differences that lie
within each. The following table summarizes each
theory, the noted researcher(s) associated with the
theory, and provides a basic definition.
10. Theory Theorist(s) Definition
Transactional Louise Rosenblatt;
Wolfgang Iser
Transactional Reader Response Theory analyzes
the transaction between the text and reader.
Both are seen as equally important. A reader can
take an efferent stance, based on determinant
meanings in a text, or an aesthetic stance, based
on determinant and indeterminacy of meanings.
Affective Stylistics Stanley Fish Affective Stylistics Reader Response Theory examines
a text in a "slow motion" format, in which each line is
studied in order to determine "how (stylistics) affects
(affective) the reader in the process of reading"
(Tyson, 2006, p. 175).
Subjective David Bleich Subjective Reader Response Theory believes that
the readers' responses are the text, and that all
meaning of a text lies in the readers'
interpretations.
Psychological Norman Holland Psychological Reader Response Theory znalyzes
what the readers' interpretations and responses
reveal about the reader, not the text.
Social Stanley Fish Social Reader Response Theory believes that
readers approach a text with interpretative
strategies that are the products of the
"interpretive communities" in which they belong.
11.
12. Transactional Reader Response
Analyzes the transaction between
reader and text both the reader and the
text are necessary in the production of
meaning As we read, the text acts as a
stimulus to which we respond feelings,
associations, and memories all influence
the way we make sense of a text as we
read it.
13. CONCLUSION
Reader response theory is the best
theory which makes the reader and
students to be active and to analysis a text
by their own ways it achieved great
importance in 19th century and for
students and teacher it is the most reliable
method of studying and teaching.
