Continuity editing is used in most films to seamlessly move the story and immerse viewers. Editing techniques include cuts between shots to advance the plot through conflict, identification, and intensification while maintaining a fluid sense of drama. Editing pace and juxtaposition of shots create meaning rather than just removing material. Common techniques are cuts, match cuts between actions, cross cuts between locations, cutaways, and reaction shots to guide audience response. Transitions like fades and dissolves suggest passage of time, while wipes make dramatic shifts.

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.

Film Language:Editing
Most films use a system of editing known as continuity editing.Its
sole aim is to get the story moving along and get the audience
completelyimmersed in the plot and characters.
In drama sequences,the purpose of editing is often:
To get the story moving along and the audience completely
submerged inthe scene
identification
conflict
intensification
The function of this system is to make the drama as fluid as possible,
so that the audience are not aware of the construction process
therefore,you need to be especiallyaware to spotthe techniques of
editing employed during a textual analysis. Rememberalso that
sometimessound is used to ‘bridge’the cut and make it less
noticeable on screen.
The process of editing is more concerned with the ‘creation’ of
meaning rather than the taking away of material.
Editing pace:
editing pace is the speed of the cutting – whether it is slow or fast, if
the pace is quick, you might expectit to be an action or chase scene
etc.
Editing often works through the juxtaposition of differentshots to
create meaning.
There are a huge number of editing techniques which filmmakers can
employ.
The most commonof these is the cut.
The cut is:
The mostbasic form of editing. Editing trims down the footage down
and also helps to create/maintain the logic of a start, middle and end
(narrative).
2. 2
Always ask yourself why a cut has occurred – there is always a
reason.
Match on action:
Where the editor cuts from one shot to another view that matches the
first shots action, cutting on action gives the impressionof continuous
time when watching the edited film.
Jump cut:
An abrupt switch from one scene to another, used to make a dramatic
point, or mark a period of passing time.
Cross cut:
cut from one narrative or line of action to another. Mostly used in films
to establish action occurring at the same time in two different
locations.
Cutaway shot:
When the shot cuts away to oftena reaction shot of another character
or piece of action, oftenreinforces a mood of togetherness or
confrontation.
Reaction shot:
Any shot which is a participant reacts to events/action. Often used to
guide the audiences reaction to a scene.
Matched cut or Graphic cut
Is a cut between either two differentobjects,two differentspaces,or
two differentcompositions in which an objectin the two shots
graphically match, oftenhelping to establish strong relationship
between two scenes.
Other forms of transition are also possible:
Fade
A transition to or from a blank screen (normally black)
Dissolve
Slow transition as one image merges into another.

Both are used to suggest:
_______________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
Wipe
An optical effectin which one shot ‘wipes’ another off the screen for
dramatic effect.
Superimposition
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
Montage:
A series of shots that are connected togetherto reinforce/create
meaning – intensifies and controls the emotionthrough collection.
Slow-motion:
The action literally slows down with the text- this connotes
seriousness of a past event. Helps to prolong tension, add style, or
drama effectto the film.
Long take:
This is a shot that does not cut away but lingers on one peace of the
action. It is the equivalent of staring- connotes intensity
Split screen
Division of screen in order to show two or more lines of action
simultaneously – this can be referred to as parallelaction.
Effects are also added as part of the editing process – eg; slow
motion or fast motion.
