Textbooks present knowledge as factual and as unbiased when, in fact, the information they convey is seldom either of these. These slides show how a few major corporations control the textbook industry and the information K-12 students ultimately learn from them. This, in turn, can lead to misguided views of the U.S., of literature, of science, and of the world at large. Textbooks can be and often are hegemonic. Teachers must engage students in critical inquiry and critical literacy if learning is to be truly empowering.
Social Media and Social Networking can be effectively used as pedagogical tools, especially in the ELA/literacy classroom. This presentation discussed the use of Facebook as a medium for Character Journaling and discussion of the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird." For more information, see

Resisting Total Marginality: Understanding African-American College Students’...QUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: This article explores collegiate Black identity development when African American students attend predominantly White institutions (PWIs) in the United States, considering the overall impact of total marginality. The term “total marginality” is used to describe the myriad, chronic, and often inescapable ways that African American college students attending PWIs are marginalized in a college setting. The focus of this paper is the impact of total marginality on Black identity development for those African American collegians who successfully complete their university studies at a PWI.

School leaders both overtly and tacitly discourage teachers from engaging in controversial topics. Similarly, curricula (especially corporately-produced mass curricula) tends to avoid issues that mainstream American might find troubling or too controversial. My thesis--as discussed in these slides--is that teachers should engage students in controversial topics. Controversial topics are at the heart of good literature and history. They are also ever-present in the minds of adolescent students. Classrooms should be places where students can engage in open and academic explorations of "truth" --to include issues that many find controversial or uncomfortable. Not doing so is tantamount to hegemony.

The attached slides help explain the concept of "critical literacy" and provide a rationale for teaching it in the secondary classroom and some examples of how to do so. These slides, like critical literacy itself, are controversial and not suitable to every classroom and environment. They are, however, geared toward getting students to think beyond traditional stereotypes.

Critical Reflection #4- “The Myth of the Culture of Poverty”
Gorski, P. (2008). The Myth of the Culture of Poverty. Educational Leadership, 65(7). Retrieved from http://www.ascd.org/publications/educational-leadership/apr08/vol65/num07/The-Myth-of-the-Culture-of-Poverty.aspx
Read the assigned article(s), then answer the following questions honestly and completely in short answer form. Your response to EACH section of every question should be between 150-500 words. Answers that do not fulfill the minimum word requirement will NOT earn credit. Collegiate-level writing is expected, including, but not limited to, using complete sentences, appropriate punctuation, proper paragraph structure, and editing for spelling and grammar mistakes. Please cite any sources you use, and quotations are not counted in the word minimum.
Use appropriate supporting evidence for your statements. Answer each prompt question thoroughly. If you can ask "why?", "how so?", or "how do you know that?" after reading what you've written, you've got more work to do. Your answers are for your own reflection and will only be viewed by your instructor. Each question should address the information in the article, content from class, and your reflections of the material.
1. According to the article, “what is the so-called “culture of poverty”? What are some common stereotypes of people who live in poverty? What are some incomplete ideas you have or have had about people who live in poverty? Moving forward, how can you reevaluate these incomplete ideas and apply them to everyday life?
2. In what ways do or could the myths about poverty in the article affect the population with whom you work?
3. Gorski describes the deficit perspective in schools, the idea that teachers and schools may define students by their weaknesses rather than their strengths. Look through materials that your organization produces: their website, brochures, flyers, fundraising letters, etc. In what ways is the population you serve described in terms of weaknesses? In terms of strengths?
4. Based on our discussion in class and the article, what role do you think the government should play in providing assistance for its citizens? How is the Federal Poverty Line determined? Do you think that Line is fairly determined? Why or why not?
5. Gorski names a handful of American iconic persons or groups who have done significant antipoverty work in the U.S.: Martin Luther King, Jr., Helen Keller, the Black Panthers, Cesar Chavez. Choose one about which you know the least, and describe 1-2 of their antipoverty efforts: Who was it aimed to help? During which period of time did they operate? What was their work, and where did it take effect? What were the results of their work? (400 words minimum)

AN0119616678;acd01nov.16;2016Nov23.12:00;v2.2.500 Faculty members sometimes unknowingly or inadvertently contribute to a racist climate in their classrooms. But they can take steps to address racism more effectively in their teaching
Last year, at dozens of colleges and universities across the United States, students protested institutional unresponsiveness to pervasive issues of racial inequity. Most media attention disproportionately focused on the popularity of the protests as opposed to the actual issues underlying campus unrest. For example, instead of deeply exploring the experiences that ignited demonstrations among students at the University of Missouri, journalists wrote mostly about the football team's threat to cancel its game against Brigham Young University, the potential financial implications of the team's activism, and the eventual resignations of the system president and the chancellor of the university's flagship campus. Similarly, news coverage of protests at Yale University concentrated less on students' frustrations with the university's climate of racial exclusion and more on e-mails about potentially offensive Halloween costumes and perceived threats to free speech.
It is important for faculty members to understand that students were protesting racism. It is also essential that professors recognize how they, often unknowingly and inadvertently, say and do racist things to students of color in the classroom. Student uprisings were as much a response to negative experiences with their peers and administrators as they were expressions of frustration with the cultural incompetence of their teachers. Students of color did not suddenly start experiencing racist stereotyping and racially derogatory comments, disregard for the thoughtful integration of their cultural histories in the curriculum, and threats to their sense of belonging in college classrooms during the 2015-16 academic year. We know from our work as scholars at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for the Study of Race and Equity in Education that these problems are long-standing.
College presidents, provosts, deans, and other institutional leaders hire researchers from the Center for the Study of Race and Equity in Education to spend three to four days on their campuses doing racial climate assessments. At some places we are asked to focus on racial and ethnic differences among faculty and staff members in their feelings of inclusion, respectability, and opportunities for fair and equitable professional advancement, as well as on racial tensions in workplace settings. But on most campuses, administrators ask us to assess the racial climate for students -- feelings of inclusion and belonging across racial and ethnic groups, the extent to which students interact substantively across difference, where and what students learn about race, appraisals of institutional commitments to fostering inclusive environments, and characterizations of the supportiveness of cla.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.
