Teachers have certain freedoms of expression, speech, and association protected by the Constitution similar to other citizens. However, speech that disrupts the school environment or fails to follow proper channels is not protected. Teachers also have academic freedom to teach the curriculum appropriately for students but cannot promote inappropriate or controversial material. Courts have ruled variably on issues like dress codes, political activities, pregnancy, and privacy depending on the specific circumstances and potential impacts on the school environment or the teacher's effectiveness. Religious discrimination and family leave are also regulated and require reasonable accommodations if they do not unduly burden school operations.

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
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)

By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

Normal Labour/ Stages of Labour/ Mechanism of LabourWasim Ak
Normal labor is also termed spontaneous labor, defined as the natural physiological process through which the fetus, placenta, and membranes are expelled from the uterus through the birth canal at term (37 to 42 weeks
2. Freedom of Expression
Provided teachers words do not
create “material disruption” to the
district, school or employees, they
are afforded the same rights as
every other citizen.
Connick v Meyers – School district employees
circulated a petition regarding the function of the
office. This was not upheld as freedom of
expression due to the nature of the petition, its
circulation at school, and the lack of regard of
proper channels of dealing with sub par behavior.
3. Speech Outside the School
Environment
Pickering – Teachers are afforded
the same rights out of school as any
other citizen. Pickering’s letter to
the editor about the school district
was deemed within his rights even
though it misrepresented facts.
4. Academic Freedom
Teachers in the public schools must
teach the curriculum in a way that
is appropriate for the students’ age,
maturity and intellectual level.
Inappropriate and controversial
material is generally not supported
by courts.
Fowler – A tenured teacher was
discharged for showing Pink Floyd’s
The Wall because the teacher
disregarded the district’s no rated R
rule.
5. Freedom of Association
Teachers have the rights of every
citizen which allows them to
associate with other people of their
choice without threat of
punishment.
Supreme Court states “a teacher
serves as a role model for his
students, exerting a subtle but an
important influence over their
perceptions and values.”
6. Membership in Subversive
Organizations
Elfbrandt v Russel – “Those who
join an organization but do not
share its unlawful purposes and who
do not participate in its unlawful
activities surely pose no threat,
either as a citizen or as a public
employee”
7. Political Rights
Teachers have the same rights and
freedoms enjoyed by all citizens.
Teachers must limit their political
activities away from the classroom
and outside of the school day.
8. Right to Hold Office
Teachers can legally hold public
office. Some school board policy
dictates that teachers running
for/holding office must take a leave
of absence to do so.
In no circumstance, can the
teacher’s contract be cancelled due
to running for/holding office.
9. Participation in Political
Campaigns
Teachers have the right to
participate in political campaigns
provided it does not interfere with
the school.
District cannot prevent, threaten,
harass or discriminate teachers
based on their participation in
political campaigns.
10. Dress and Grooming
There is a long record of general
disagreement in the courts about
school districts trying to regulate
teacher appearance.
East Hartford Education Association
v Board of Education of Town of
East Hartford – Court upheld the
dress code of wearing a tie.
11. Unwed Pregnant Teachers
Courts tend to vary in rulings regarding
unwed pregnant teachers
1960s and 1970s – courts were more
inclined to rule against single teachers
who were dismissed by school boards
when they reported their pregnancy
Mid 1970s and early 1980s – Courts
became less inclined to rule against unwed
pregnant teachers without carefully
weighing all aspects of each case
12. Unwed Pregnant Teachers Cont.
Courts considered teacher’s overall
performance record, the impact of the
teacher’s actions on students, and, more
important, the extent to which the
teacher’s actions adversely affect their
effectiveness as a teacher
Courts may also consider community
standards and the extent to which the
teacher’s conduct violates the ethics of the
community
Overall, large variance among courts in
addressing pregnancy among unwed
teachers
13. Right to Privacy
Right to privacy of teachers and administrators
should be respected to the extent that they do
not violate the integrity of the community or
render the teacher/administrator ineffective in
performing professional duties
Burden of proof lies with school boards to
demonstrate that lifestyle choice adversely
affects the integrity of the district or that the
conduct of the teacher/administrator has a
detrimental effect on his/her relations with
students or parents
14. Religious Discrimination in Public
Schools
Title VII addresses any forms of religious
discrimination regarding employment.
Religion is defined under Title VII to
include “all aspects of religious
observances, practices, and beliefs.”
Employer, including school board, must
make reasonable accommodations to the
employee’s religion, unless the employer
can demonstrate the inability to do so
based on undue hardship.
15. Religious Discrimination in Public
Schools
School officials must make
allowances for teachers’ religious
observances if such observances do
not create substantial disruption to
the educational process
Examples: personal leave to attend
a religious convention or to observe
a religious holiday
16. Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
Family and Medical Leave Act was passed by Congress in
1993
Designed to allow eligible employees up to a total of
twelve work weeks of unpaid leave during any twelve-
month period for one or more of the following reasons:
Birth and care of the newborn child of the employee
Placement with the employee of a son/daughter for
adoption or foster care
Caring for an immediate family member with a serious
health condition
Medical leave when the employee is unable to work
because of a serious health condition
17. FMLA Cont.
Employers with fifty or more employees
are covered by this act
Eligible employee must be employed for
at least twelve months or for at least
1,250 hours over the previous twelve
months
An employer may raise questions of the
employee to confirm whether the leave is
needed or being taken for qualified FMLA
purposes
