Some fascinating activities to spread ecological mindfulness among kidsEcocharco
Raise awareness about the importance of 3Rs to protect our environment. Artisans from Palizada recycle many items and create beautiful art pieces. For example, they creatively decorate old or damaged CDs and DVDs with fabric, paint, small decorative stones, ribbons for hemp, and use them as coasters.
Everyone is keen to protect the environment, and schools today are driven by a highly vocal pressure group of small, eager faces who want to save the polar bear and protect trees
Queen Alexandra Elementary completes a WildED inspired action project!BC Spaces for Nature
Dear WildED, Both classes have been fully engaged in a sustainability unit which culminated in the action plan to reduce our school's garbage. Throughout the process they have been making presentations to both staff and students to increase their motivation to fully participate in our overall goal. They have taken (WildED's) carbon footprint test and committed to at least one more action to reduce their mark on the world. They have done an amazing job and have already been recognized by the Vancouver School Board for their amazing efforts.
Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our (WildED) program and would love to hear about your programs next year. Take care and thanks, Grade 4/5 Classroom Teachers, Queen Alexandra Elementary School, Vancouver

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
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.

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.

3. “Three ways to make my school more environmental friendly” GO GREEN
4. Get on your Bike Meanwhile, if you don't drive - or don't want the hassle of driving, then a bike is a great investment. Young children will enjoy pedaling along with their parents (though older children will most certainly prefer to pick their own way to school). With child obesity on the rise, cycling is fantastic for getting your children, and yourself, moving in the morning. Do, however, remember to invest in some basic safety equipment. A helmet is a compulsory accessory, while lights and reflective gear are essential so you are visible to early morning traffic. It also pays to ensure that your school has secure bike racks, where your child can leave their bicycle for the day.
5. 3“R” REDUCE Reducing the amount of material the students and teachers use on campus will help eliminate the need for recycling or disposal. Smart selection of products used at school keeps waste to a minimum. Backpacks. Promote purchasing high-quality backpacks that will last more than one year. Reusable Bottles. Stop bringing bottled water to school. Instead, use a thermos or stainless steel bottle to reduce waste and protect against the chemicals released from plastics. Waste-free Lunches. Institute a waste-free lunch policy. Bring a lunch to school and use a thermos or metal bottle, reusable food containers, and reusable lunchboxes with the goal of not having to throw anything in the trash after lunch.
6. rEUSE Many items end up in the trash or recycle bin long before their life is gone. Get creative with ways to reuse materials at school. Make Art. Use items such as old CDs, paper towel rolls, holiday cards, and egg cartons for art projects. Then have an art show featuring the finished products. Refill. Both students and teachers can use refillable pens and pencils to avoid throwing away disposable ones. Recharge Batteries. Using rechargeable batteries reduces the amount of batteries that end up in landfills. Book Covers. Cover school books with grocery bags. This site tells how. Get creative and use recycled items as decoration. Grocery bags also make good gift wrap. Decorations. Work with the drama department to use props and decorations for dances instead of disposable decorations. Swap. Hold a swap of some kind. Electronics, books, games, and clothing are all good ideas for swaps. Visit the Library. Don’t buy a book, visit the library on your campus. Libraries are the ultimate in reusing. School Supplies. Many school supplies get thrown away at the end of the year. See what can be reused for next year instead. Items such as folders and binders can often be reused. Coffee Grounds. Place a coffee ground collection box in the teacher’s lounge. Coffee grounds are great for reusing in a garden. eCycle. Team up with a local computer repair shop and host an eCycling event to refurbish old computers that can then be reused at your school. Use Scraps. Don’t throw away any paper that can be used again. The back or bottom of paper that has blank space can be reused as note paper.
7. rECYCLE The activity that comes to mind most quickly when thinking of going green is often recycling. Recycling bins are showing up more and more in public places and along city streets on trash day. Recycling is easy to do—it’s just a matter of remembering to do it. Compost. Start a compost of the leftovers from the cafeteria. This site will tell you all you need to know about composting. Use Recycled. Encourage use of items that you can purchase recycled such as copier paper, notebooks, and ink jet cartridges. Add Bins. If they are not already in place, provide bins for aluminum, plastic and glass recycling in cafeterias and vending areas. Wear Recycled. For schools that require uniforms, purchase from this British company that creates school uniforms from recycled soda bottles. Green Books. If it’s available, purchase your book from a green publisher who has pledged to print their books on recycled paper or to not use paper from an endangered forest. Compete. Hold a recycling contest. The class who recycles the most in a one-month period receives a green party featuring a tree-planting on the campus.
8. Educate The most important way to move your school towards positive changes for the environment is by educating. Once students and teachers alike become more informed and aware, the necessary changes will be easier to implement and will hold more promise for staying in place. 1. Create Signs. Art students and journalism students can come together to create signs to post around school giving students important reminders about topics such as littering, recycling, and conservation. 2. Debate. Choose environmental topics for the debate team. 3. Peer Mentor. Have older students speak to younger children about the importance of living green. This sharing of knowledge will benefit both the older and younger students. 4. Sculpt. Create a sculpture of trash collected from campus and the surrounding neighborhood. 5. Have a Festival. Hold an Earth Day festival with booths that educate on various environmental topics. Remember to use recycled and other earth-friendly products when creating the booths. 6. Reduce Your Ecological Footprint. Design a course on how to reduce your school’s ecological footprint. This site will help you get started. You can switch to green electricity, green web hosting, etc. 7. Craft. Organize a class such as the Future Craft Collective that teaches children valuable lessons about reducing, reusing, and recycling while creating something of beauty. 8. Invite Experts. Organize a monthly series inviting presenters on a variety of environmental topics to speak to your school. 9. Learn Where it Goes. Organize a field trip to a local recycling center. 10. Donate Books. Donate books about the environment to the library. Here’s a list of books for children of all ages. 11. Learn First Hand. Make recycled paper from scraps found at school
9. School activities and education initiatives Roots & Shoots is the Jane Goodall Institute's Education Programme for young people. Its Mission Possible programme is a set of student and teacher resources for learning about, and improving, local environments Green Day is a climate change activity kit for schools from CABE, the government's independent adviser on architecture, urban design and public space The Globe Programme is an environmental education project linking nearly 600 schools in the UK, which help measure the standard of the local environment at their school and compare it with others. Cool it Schools, a global online climate change and environmental showcase, has just launched Writing the World, a poetry-writing competition for young people judged by poet Sue Hubbard. An Ecologist article describes how it aims to inspire students to act. Eco-schools is an international award programme that guides schools through a seven-step process to help them address a variety of environmental issues, ranging from litter and waste to healthy living and biodiversity. Schools work towards gaining one of three awards – Bronze, Silver and the prestigious Green Flag award, which symbolises excellence in the field of environmental activity. Climate Futures provides curriculum activities focused on unravelling the complexity of climate change and environmental issues for lower secondary and upper primary students (10-14 years old).
