The Education Bureau of Hong Kong has just published (May 2014) exciting and innovative guidance on ‘The Fourth Strategy on Information Technology in Education.’ The strategy is a challenge for all teachers but in particular it will require ingenuity and creativity from teachers of students with special education needs. Each and every student should be able to benefit from the strategy no matter what their level of attainment or range disabilities. The pedagogical implications have potential to change the mindsets of teachers and to revolutionise the student access to the new information age. This presentation will discuss six special challenges that will permeate the five key actions that are recommended by the EDB.
Constructivism, modular curriculum, credit system, Information technology these all are the emerging trends in curriculum development. These trends should be given proper justice while developing curriculum. Educators should learn to work together with their students, and with other experts in creating content, and are able to tailor it to exactly what they need.

Zur Zukunft der Benutzungsabteilungen in UniversitätsbibliothekenAnne Christensen
Die klassischen Benutzungsbereiche Aus- und Fernleihe und Auskunft werden durch neue bibliothekarische Dienste wie Selbstverbuchung oder Digitalisierung einerseits und mangelnde Akzeptanz durch NutzerInnen andererseits herausgefordert. Gleichzeitig sind mit der Vermittlung von Informationskompetenz oder der Mitgestaltung des „Lernorts Bibliothek“ neue Aufgabengebiete für Benutzungs-BibliothekarInnen hinzugekommen bzw. in ihrer Bedeutung gewachsen. Der Vortrag versucht, ein positives Zukunftsbild von Benutzungsabteilungen in wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken zu entwickeln. Statistische Zahlen zur Nutzung von Diensten und einschlägige Ergebnisse aus Nutzerbefragungen belegen einen bleibenden Bedarf an persönlicher Betreuung zu Ausleihe, Fernleihe und allgemeinen Benutzungsfragen. Darüber hinaus gilt es, sich dem Dialog mit BenutzerInnen über Benutzungs- und Verhaltensregeln in Lesesälen und Gruppenarbeitszonen zu stellen und den realen Lernraum über diesen Dialog kontinuierlich weiter zu entwickeln.
Bezüglich des Auskunftsdienstes wird die Notwendigkeit aufgezeigt, sich neuen Beratungsaufgaben und –formaten (Schreiben, Publizieren, Sprechstunden) zu öffnen. Aus zahlreichen Bibliotheken liegen außerdem bereits Erfahrungen bei der Integration von Ausleihe und Auskunft sowie ggf. weiteren Bereichen zu zentralen Service-Theken vor, die hier mit Blick auf die Anforderungen an Organisations- und Personalentwicklung diskutiert werden.

Roles and functions of educational technology in 21st Century educationKirigaya Kazuto
The term “21st century” has become the central part of educational thinking and planning for the future. Administrators and Teachers are actively searching for ways to prepare students for the future, and the educational system has been evolving faster than ever before. Creating a 21st century education system is about making sure that all students are prepared to succeed in a competitive world – a world with plenty of opportunities for highly skilled individuals and limited options for everyone else.
Globalization has opened up the world and allowed people to connect in new and exciting ways. We blend traditions and create unique belief systems and also transmit our values and cultures without the expectation of them being adopted by our audience. As always, at its core, the role of education is to prepare students to become active, successful, and contributing members of society.
Instruction should be student-centered
Instead of passively receiving information, the students would gather information on their own, under the guidance of their teacher. Different learning styles are encouraged, and students have an enhanced sense of motivation and responsibility.
They engage in many different types of hands-on activities, as well as demonstrate learning in many differentways. Learning is about discovery, not the memorization of facts.
In order to prepare students to play their role in the 21st century society we are a part of, the following can be considered when deciding how education will look in our schools and classrooms.
Education should be collaborative
Students must learn how to collaborative with others. Students should be encouraged to work together to discover information, piece it together, and construct meaning and should learn how to recognize the different strengths and talents each person can bring to a project, and change roles depending on those attributes. Schools should also be collaborating with other educational institutions around the world to share information and learn about different practices or methods that have been developed.
Learning should have context
Students are encouraged to learn in different ways, the teacher still provides guidance as to the skills that need to be acquired. The teacher can make a pint of helping students to understand how the skills they are building can be applied in their lives. Students will be so much motivated to learn something that they can se the value in. We need to take a more general approach and teach them the skills that they are useful in any situation.
Technology is a tool, a way for fact-based learning and allows students to do a lot of the research using the internet and various tools. The Role of Technology in 21st Century Learning:
1. Technology allows for24/7 access to information
2. Constant social interaction, and
3. Easily created and shared digital content.
One of the hallmark features of 21st Century Teaching Methods is the emphasis on personalized learning. Recognizing that each student has unique strengths, preferences, and paces of learning, educators are adopting strategies that cater to individual needs.

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.

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.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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

3. The term 21st century skills refers to a broad set of knowledge, skills, work habits, and
character traits that are believed—by educators, school reformers, college professors,
employers, and others—to be critically important to success in today’s world, particularly
in collegiate programs and contemporary careers and workplaces. Generally speaking,
21st century skills can be applied in all academic subject areas, and in all educational,
career, and civic settings throughout a student’s life
It should be noted that the “21st century skills” concept encompasses a wide-ranging
and amorphous body of knowledge and skills that is not ego define and that has not been
officially codified or categorized.While the term is widely used in education, it is not
always defined consistently, which can lead to confusion and divergent interpretations. In
addition, a number of related terms—including applied skills, cross-curricular skills, cross-
disciplinary skills, interdisciplinary skills, transferable skills, transversal skills, no cognitive
skills, and soft skills, among others—are also widely used in reference to the general
forms of knowledge and skill commonly associated with 21st century skills.

context
6. 1. Instruction should be student- centered
Student-centered learning is strongly encouraged in the 21st century.
In order to contribute to society, students will need to be able to acquire new
information as problems arise.They will need to connect the new information
with the knowledge they already have and apply it to solving the problem at
hand.They will not be able to call upon a teacher for answers, so will need to
have “learned how to learn” on their own.
The teacher would act as a facilitator for the students.
7. 2. Education should be collaborative .
Students must learn how to collaborate with others. Society today has
people collaborating across the globe.
Students should be encouraged to work together to discover information,
piece it together, and construct meaning. Collaboration should also be
dynamic.
Students should learn how to recognize the different strengths and talents
each person can bring to a project, and change roles depending on those
attributes.
Schools should also be collaborating with other educational institutions
around the world to share information and learn about different practices or
methods that have been developed.They should be willing to alter their
instructional methods in light of new advancements.
8. 3. Learning should have context
Teachers should take a more general approach and teach them
the skills that are useful in any situation;
Lessons have little purpose if they do not have any impact in a
student’s life outside of the school.
