Carol Dweck & Ross Greene - Framing How Kids Learnkawilson68
The mindset theories of Carole Dweck are presented in addition to the collaborative problem solving model promoted by Ross Greene. Both honour the idea that 'kids are doing the best with what they've got'. These are translated to the classroom and how feedback and assessment and help frame behaviours and help kids want to learn.

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.

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
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.

is a process, a method and a
philosophy of education whereby a
learner acquires knowledge by his or
her own efforts and develops the
ability for enquiry and critical
evaluation.
• Philip Candy
5. Give a man a fish and you feed him

Teach a man to fish and you feed
him for a lifetime.

6. Why Independent Learning ?
• “An attitude shortage is at least as bad
as a skills shortage…. CBI members said
that motivation, commitment to high
quality work and a desire to learn were
more important than communication,
numeracy and team working”
Adair Turner
Head of the CBI
7. 50% of employers are worried about literacy
and numeracy but 70% are more worried about
lack of emotional inteligence
Spoonfed students struggle
with A levels and degrees
Telegraph
The illiterate of the 21st Century are those
that can’t learn how to learn.
It is predicted that 90% of jobs 5 year olds
will be doing when they leave school are
yet to be invented.
Addicted to praise –
wafer thin confidence Dweck
8. Deep and lasting motivation to
learning happens when :
• Learners explore and understand the ‘how’ of
learning
• Learners take responsibility for and have
ownership and control of their own learning and
achievements
• Learners take on roles that involve responsibility
and success of others
• Learners create a worthwhile product through
the learning process

enable your learning partner to make an
accurate drawing of the parts of a circle.
10. Creating independent learners
An increase in the amount of effort

learner
Dependent Learners
Independent Learners

becoming a better performer,
higher marks or grades
• Getting better means
improving as a learner and
making progress

completion, thinking “I just need
to get it done”
•
Satisfied by effort and progress,
and are able to see the bigger
picture.
