The document discusses the author's research process for their thriller film project. They learned about effective techniques for thrillers, such as suspense, plot twists, and avoiding cliches. They also researched their target audience, which tends to be males. For the film opening, the author plans to use mysterious shots, a tense soundtrack, and isolated settings to intrigue viewers without revealing too much of the plot. They will be the sole character to focus on scenery and use special effects makeup to start the story. Safety precautions will be taken while filming in isolated areas. The author's costume will use dark clothes and makeup to create a burn effect and give the character a mysterious appearance.

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.
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
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.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
2. From my research I have learnt a great deal. I have learnt a lot more about
my target audience and how to draw them in, I have learnt about what
makes a thriller film popular as well as how to construct one using effective
music, editing techniques, camera angles and costume and props.
Researching things like thriller film openings have inspired me to
incorporate some features into my own work to make it more relatable but
at the same time I wanted to keep it realistic. If there is one thing I have
learnt and heard the most is that you shouldn’t overdo it. With the help of
Pinterest I have put together boards to also inspire me for costume and
titles as well as researching past students work to try and get some ideas of
what they did to be successful.
3. During my work I have found out a lot more about my target audience
for thriller films, for instance the typical age group who enjoy thriller
films and also what draws them closer to this genre and what simple
things appeal to them. For example:
-Overcomplicated plots aren’t good
-Plot twists are the best part of a thriller
-Try to avoid clichés
-Suspense
To achieve some of these examples I will have to be careful how I use the
4 technical codes in my work so that it doesn’t clash with anything. After
further research into my audience thrillers tend to be aimed more
towards males so I figured I would make the film opening more
masculine but at the same time suitable for all. In terms of class there is
no particular audience so I free to use different stereotypes of class if I
choose
4. After researching my genre I have learned that many thriller film openings
don’t give a lot away, they leave it a mystery in order for the audience to
carry on watching while continuing to build the pace. So my idea for my film
opening is to not create too much of a narrative but still keep things
interesting with creative shots and a good soundtrack that keeps the
audience on edge. Setting is also important so I want to be able to film in
quiet isolated places to build a background for the characters as well as to
make the audience ask questions like:
-why is the character there?
-Why are they alone?
-What has happened?
-What is going to happen?

9. I didn’t want to overcomplicate my narrative or overdo my film opening by
including too many characters. So for this reason I have just decided to use
myself as the only character so I can focus most of the shots on scenery
instead of having to worry about balancing a number of shots between
several different characters. I will be used for some of the shots and have
special effects makeup on my face in order to create a bit of a plot starter
which also enables the audience to ask questions about the character like
what happened to them and how did she get here?
10. With my film being a thriller a lot of my filming will be done in isolated
places where there isn’t much risk however I will be filming near a motorway
so there are obvious dangers there with road safety and the constant
awareness of filming the public and thinking about their privacy. As I am in
isolated areas noise won’t be too much of a problem but equipment will be
used to prevent any background noise. Filming from heights is also an issue
but I would be careful not to damage any filming equipment. I do plan on
using SFX makeup but none that will cause offense to viewers or members
of the public. Any places that are owned I will have to gain permission to
film there so I am not breaking the law.
11. Relating to the thriller genre my costume will just be dark coloured
clothes with a hoodie and a scarf to cover up my face to give a
mysterious effect to the character on screen, for this I will just use my
own clothes as it is nothing special. However for makeup I plan to create
a burn mark on my face which I have practiced and I will re-create this
using paint and wax which I already have at home so I don’t have to go to
great lengths to get the materials I need.
