The Protestant Reformation began in 1517 when German monk Martin Luther publicly challenged Catholic Church practices such as selling indulgences and corruption within the Church hierarchy. He posted his 95 Theses criticizing these practices, which were then widely printed and circulated. This sparked the growing Protestant movement that sought to reform the Church and its teachings. The Reformation resulted in a split between Catholics and Protestants and growing conflict between them. It also weakened the power of the Pope and Catholic Church, while increasing the power of European monarchs.

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

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
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.

1. The Protestant
Reformation
The Protestant Reformation was
the European Christian reform
movement that began in 1517 when
a German monk, Martin Luther
published The Ninety-Five Theses.
2. • The Protestant Reformation began
as an attempt to reform (fix) the
Catholic Church, because of
perceived false teachings and
malpractice that some Christians
saw as evidence of the corruption
of the Church’s hierarchy, which
included the Pope.
Why the need to reform?
4. • The Protestant Reformation began
as an attempt to reform the
Catholic Church, because of
perceived false teachings and
malpractice that some Christians
saw as evidence of the corruption
of the Church’s hierarchy, which
included the Pope.
Why the need to reform?
5. Others sharply criticized the
Church for some of its practices.
Popes seemed more concerned
with luxury and political power
than with spiritual matters.
Why the need to reform?
6. Why the need to reform?
Following the years of the black
plague in Europe, people became
more suspicious of the Church and
its power although they never
doubted their faith.
7. Why the need to reform?
As a result of the Renaissance, a
new perspective on the world,
spreading knowledge and education
encouraged people to challenge
authority, not just accept what
was told to them.
9. Biblical Teachings
•The printing press allowed for
the publication of the bible in
many vernaculars and for the
first time in hundreds of years,
average people could read the
bible. To their surprise, much of
what had always been taught to
them was not the truth.
10. •An indulgence was a guarantee of
forgiveness. By paying money to
the Church, people thought they
could win salvation.
What are Indulgences?
13. Who was Martin Luther?
Martin Luther was a German Monk
who openly challenged the practice
of indulgences and was the first
to publicly challenge church
wrongdoings. He posted a written
protest called the 95 Theses on
the door of the Wittenberg
Cathedral in Germany, for all to
read.
14. Eventually his words were printed
(using the new printing press) and
spread throughout Germany. This
was the beginning of the
Reformation movement.
Who was Martin Luther?
15. In 1524, peasants in Germany
hoped to use Luther’s ideas about
Christian freedom to change
society.
Goal of the Revolution
16. Goal of the Revolution
Politically, German princes hoped
the revolution would weaken the
power of Catholic Church and help
them escape the rule of the
Pope. This would make
Monarchies (King’s governments)
stronger.
17. What Happened?
A split between members of society
saw some join forces with Luther
(Protestants… which came to mean
“Christians who belonged to non-
Catholic churches”) while others
remained loyal to the Pope.
War eventually broke out
between Catholic and Protestant
forces in Germany.
19. Calvinism
In 1530, the Protestant movement
gave way to the teachings of John
Calvin. Calvin wrote an important
book that gave structure to
Protestant beliefs. He taught
that people are sinful by nature.
20. Calvinism which too was a religion
for “Christians who belonged to
non-Catholic church”) taught
predestination, the idea that God
determines beforehand (He has
pre-determined,) who will be saved..
Calvinism
22. The Catholic Church’s Response
As Protestant churches grew all over
Europe, the Catholic Church took
steps to change itself. This was
called the Catholic Reformation or
Counter-Reformation.
23. The Catholic Church’s Response
One Catholic reformer was Ignatius
(later St. Ignatius) who founded a
new group in the Catholic Church
based on deep devotion to Jesus.
Members of this group, were called
the Jesuits.
24. The Jesuits…
•started schools across Europe
•they sent missionaries to convert people
to Catholicism
•tried to stop the spread of
Protestantism
This was called the Counter-Reformation
Movement
The Catholic Church’s Response
25. Do you understand how the counter reformation tried
saved the Catholicism?
26. Legacy of the Reformation
In the wake of the movement,
Protestant churches flourished but…
•the Catholic Church became more
unified
•there was an overall decline in the
authority of the church.
•individual monarchs/Kings and nations
gained greater power.
