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.
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.
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

2. CĂLUŞUL
This is a Romanian folk dance,

It is considered that people, cattle
and crops are protected from evil by this
magic dance.
3. DOINA
This is a melancholy lyrical song,

essential element of Romanian folklore.
Until 1900 it was the only music genre
present in many regions of the country.
It can express a variety of
feelings: longing, sadness, love, regret,
homesickness.
4. MANUFACTURE TECHNIQUES OF HOREZU
POTTERY
One of the most beautiful and refined
Romanian ceramics is produced at Horezu, in
Vâlcea County. Traditional elements transform
the pottery here in art and civilisation objects.
Handmade on the wheel, producing the ceramics
is a special craft, known only by the potters
community.
Every craftsman has a
certain style but all of them follow
the order of the procedures, which
are also traditional. Ancient
patterns such as the wave, the
spiral, the star, the snake, the fish,
and especially the cock- the
emblem of Horezu pottery, are
made with great art and make this
craft unique.
5. ROMANIAN FOLK DANCE
PERFORMED BY YOUNG MEN
This is the first in the traditional
dancing cycle, its purpose being that of
initiation. It is common to the central,
western and north-western part of
Romania.
This dance represents a traditional
way of celebrating the manhood of
the young men in the community
and the social status.
6. MĂRȚIȘORUL (March amulet) is a small
piece of jewellery tied to a white and red
knitted string, which appears in our tradition
as well as in that of some neighbouring
countries. Girls and women wear them in
March as a symbol of spring.
7. TICUŞ ROMANIAN FOLK DANCE
PERFORMED BY YOUNG MEN
It is specific to a village close to
Braşov, in Ţara Făgăraşului, and it is danced
by men aged 5 to 70. What is different
about it is that the dancers are not only
Romanian, but also Hungarian or Roma,
which contributes to social and intercultural
dialogue.
Dancing helps men to establish
their status in the community, in order to
get married.
8. COLINDATUL ÎN CEATĂ
BĂRBĂTEASCĂ
All over Romania and in The
Republic of Moldova, this ritual also
represents a Christian message,
announcing the winter holidays.
It is not only a beautiful ritual,
but also a way of preserving national
identity, a sign of solidarity between
communities, including multi-ethnical
groups.
9. Romanian folk costume
It represents a long lasting living
document which has transmitted to younger
generations the message of an authentic
artistic creation for many centuries.
It is of artistic, social and historic importance.
Starting from materials produced by
people themselves, it has evolved into true
art when it comes to decorating fabrics and
embroidery.
10. Traditional Romanian cuisine
It is diverse, being made up of a
variety of culinary customs and traditions. It
has also been influenced by German,
Serbian, Italian, Turkish, Hungarian and
other cultures.
It is characterized by diversity and
refinement; many Romanian dishes are
highly appreciated by foreigners, too.
11. It comprises both regular
dishes and special holiday ones. Sweets,
pies and jams have an important place
in it.
A popular Romanian food is
‘mămăliga’, a corn mush, which also
appears in other cuisines under the
name ’polenta’.
12. Mititei or mici (grilled
minced meat balls) are a
Romanian type of food, popular
at picnics or open-air festivals.
Pleșcoi sausages are
mutton sausages, spiced with
chilli and garlic. Their name
comes from a place in Buzău
County, where they are
traditionally produced.
13. Sarmalele (force-
meat rolls in cabbage or vine
leaves) represent another
specific dish, made of pork,
beef, mutton, poultry or even
fish, mixed with rice and other
ingredients. They are usually
served with ‘mămăliga’ and
cream.
14. Crafts
Dogăritul (cooperage) –
the craft of making dishes out of
wood staves: casks for drinks,
barrels for keeping food, like cheese
or pickled cabbage, buckets. They
are handmade.
15. Decorating eggs
This is a very important
Easter traditon which takes place
during Holy Week, on Holy Thursday
or Saturday.
Eggs are decorated in three
or four colours, also taking into
consideration the colour symbols:
red (sun, fire, love), black (eternity,
stability), yellow ( light, richness of
crops, youth, hospitability), green
(the force of nature, hope,
freshness), blue (health, the sky),
violet (self-control, patience, trust,
justice).
16. Spinning, weaving and sewing
The necessary tools were the
distaff and the wooden spindle, made of
soft willow wood.
Handmade fabrics are special
due to their originality and rich
decoration. The decorative techniques are
highly artistic and there are a lot of local
variants.
17. The sewing dot
originated in the sewing craft.
Repeating it in straight, vertical
or oblique lines makes the
motif. Various and harmonious
joining of motifs leads to the
final aspect of the product.
