This document discusses the importance of structure in the classroom environment. It defines structure as consisting of rules and expectations, schedules and routines, and procedures. Structure provides predictability which helps students organize their behavior and reduces challenging behaviors. While structure does not directly teach self-management, it increases the likelihood of positive behaviors. The document provides tips for implementing structure, such as starting on the first day, setting high expectations, holding students accountable, keeping things simple, being prepared to adjust, not being hypocritical, and building a reputation for structure.

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.

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.

2. • In this segment you learned about the concept of structure in
the environment and how structure can help activities run
more smoothly.
• What is structure?
• Structure consists of:
• Rules and expectations (what is expected)
• Schedules and routines (when things occur)
• Procedures (Processes to keep things running smoothly)
3. • Structure provides students with important
• answers such as:
• Who gets to use the computer?
• When do you get a break?
• What do you do if you need to use the restroom?
• Where do you put work when it is finished?
• Why do we use our quiet voices in library?
• How do we line up for recess?
4. • Why is structure effective when working with students who
have challenging behavior?
• Structure makes things more predictable for students and
reduces surprises.
• Structure helps students organize their behavior.
• Structure reduces the potential for a student to argue or
disagree about things that are unclear or unexpected.
• Structure reduces opportunities for challenging behaviors by
limiting idle time when a student doesn’t have anything to
do.
5. • Does too much structure keep students from learning to self-
manage?
• Structure doesn’t directly teach students to self manage but does
increase the chances for positive behaviors.
• Students will not learn to self-manage when there is frequent
correcting and reminding; this can happen a lot without structure.
• Keeping a classroom structured does take a strong commitment
from the teacher, but the rewards are well worth the time, effort,
and planning required.
• Teachers who build a structured classroom will find that they
enjoy their jobs more, see more growth in their students, and
experience more positivity.
6. • It all starts with a few simple steps.
• 01of 07 Start on Day One
• It is essential to recognize that
the first few days of the school year
often dictate the tone for the
remainder of the year.
• Once you lose a class, you rarely get
them back.
• Structure starts on day one.
• Rules and expectations should be laid
out immediately, and possible
consequences should be discussed in
depth.
• Provide students with specific
scenarios and walk them through your
expectations as well as your plan for
dealing with issues in the classroom.

7. • 02 of 07 Set Expectations High
• As a teacher, you should naturally come
in with high expectations for your
students.
• Convey your expectations to them
but set goals that are realistic and
reachable.
• These goals should challenge your
students both individually and as a class.
• Have a set of expectations for everything
including preparation, academic success,
and student behavior inside and outside
your classroom.

8. • 03 of 07 Hold Students Accountable
• Hold every student accountable for their
actions in all areas of life.
• Do not allow them to be mediocre.
• Encourage them to be great and do not
let them settle for less than that.
• Deal with issues immediately.
• Do not allow students to get away with
something simply because it is a small
issue, as small issues can easily develop
into more serious issues over time.
• Be fair but tough.
• Always listen to your students and take
what they have to say to heart.
• Use their feedback to build the best
classroom you can

9. • 04 of 07 Keep It Simple
• Providing structure does not have to be difficult as
you do not want to overwhelm your students.
• Pick a handful of the most fundamental rules and
expectations as well as the most effective
consequences.
• Spend a couple of minutes discussing or practicing
them each day.
• Keep goal-setting simple.
• Do not give your students fifteen goals to meet at
once.
• Provide them with a couple of reachable goals at a
time and then add new ones once those are reached.
• Start the year off by providing goals that are easily
attainable so that your students will build
confidence through success.
• As the year moves along, provide them with goals
that are increasingly more difficult to achieve.

10. • 05 of 07 Be Prepared to Adjust
• Always set expectations high, but it is essential to
understand that every class and every student is
different.
• Be prepared to adjust your expectations if a student or
group of students is not academically capable of
meeting them.
• It is important that you are always realistic.
• By setting expectations too high, your risk making
your students so frustrated that they just give up.
• Always temper your expectations to meet individual
learning needs.
• Likewise, you will also encounter students who easily
exceed your expectations.
• You should reevaluate your approach in differentiating
their instruction as well. People Images/Getty Images
11. • 06 of 07 Do Not Be Hypocritical
• Kids will identify a phony rather quickly.
• It is critical that you live by the same set of rules and
expectations that you expect your students to follow.
• If you do not allow your students to have their cell
phones in your classroom, then you should not either.
• You should be the primary role model for your students
when it comes to structure.
• A key component with structure is preparation and
organization.
• How can you expect your students to be prepared for class
each day if you are rarely prepared yourself?
• Is your classroom clean and organized?
• Be real with your students and practice what you preach.
• Hold yourself to a higher level of accountability and
students will follow your lead.

12. • 07 of 07 Build a Reputation
• First-year teachers in particular often
struggle with providing an adequate level
of structure in their classrooms.
• This becomes easier with experience.
• After a few years, your reputation will
either become a tremendous asset or a
significant burden.
• Students will always talk about what
they can or cannot get away within a
particular teacher’s class.
• Veteran teachers who are structured find
it increasingly easier over the years to
continue to be structured because they
have that reputation.
• Students come into their classrooms
knowing what to expect, making the
teachers' work much easier.
