The silent way
The Silent Way is a language teaching method created by Caleb Gattegno that relies extensively on silence. It encourages student responses orally without direct instruction from the teacher. Teachers point to charts containing sounds and students are expected to pronounce them correctly. Students develop autonomy through self and peer correction. Rods, pictures, and word charts are used as teaching materials. While it promotes student interaction and independent learning, the method can confuse students and make progress evaluation difficult for teachers.

What do these people have in common? Former president Ronald Reagan. ex-Dallas Cowboy Hollywood Henderson. Writer Lorian Hemingway, granddaughter of Ernest Hemingway. Comedian Louie Anderson. Actress Susan Sullivan Former hockey star Derek Sanderson. And performer Suzanne Somers.
Hello. I'm Robin Young, and like everyone I just named, I grew up in an alcoholic home. Now I know some of you may remember me as a co-host of Evening Magazine, a former correspondent for NBC News, but now I also refer to myself as something called an adult child of an alcoholic.
Now I know that doesn't make sense at first. Adult child. What does that mean? But please listen, because tonight's program may make some people's lives make sense, some for the first time.
We're going to be talking about adults confronting the fact that the alcoholism they grew up with was not only very painful when they were children, but has had a profound effect on them as adults.
And this alcoholism isn't always easy to see. I mean, sure, there's the violent drunk that you see on television, but we're also talking about the silent homes where kids grew up in constant fear that there would be violence, that Mom would fall asleep drunk with a cigarette or Dad have a car accident driving home. No one ever talked about it, and these kids always thought it was their fault.
I know alcoholism wasn't even mentioned in my home until my dad died from it three years ago. And even then it was hard for me to talk about, until I heard other people's voices.
He was a really sort of Jekyll/Hyde personality. When he wasn't drinking he was charming and bright and insightful. And when he was drinking he was angry.
I believe my father's alcoholic. And I love him dearly and I can't get him sober. And he thinks he's just a boozer.
My childhood was normal to me. Craziness, violence, hitting, screaming, crying, staying up all night. All those things were just our normal life.
Confusion is why I couldn't figure things out. Why can't I figure out the confusion? So I was confused about the confusion.
I used to think that a bolt of lightning was going to come and crash down on me if I talked about it.
Once it was easy for people to see me on the outside and think that things were going OK. The last year things just went dramatically downhill.
I thought if I was a better kid that maybe he wouldn't drink.
Now I know, because I was one once, that there are some cynics out there. Someone recently wrote that it feels as if we're about to have support groups for third cousins of excessive sherry drinkers. How important is this?
Well, there are 28 million Americans who have at least one alcoholic parent. That's one out of eight. And most of the people that we're talking about have worked very hard at looking really good so no one knows there's a problem until their lives just fall apart and marriages break up or they're profoundly depressed and they don't know why.
We get a lot of mixed si.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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...
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
