I presented my Dissertation study and findings at a conference.
My study explored Gen Y consumer perceptions of shock appeals of a sexual nature, particularly within a fashion retail context. The abundance of sexual appeals within the advertising sphere have resulted in audiences becoming passive to their once deemed 'shocking' effects. The current debate is that as a stand alone construct, ‘shock’ is outdated. Mediating variables that influence attitudes and purchase intentions towards organisations are considered, particularly fashion apparel brands. This study contributes to the debate regarding the efficacy of sex appeals in attracting young audiences, adopting a qualitative approach consisting of semi-structured interviews and focus groups using a sample of 16 Gen Y participants. Results suggest that in developing marketing strategies, the progressive, not preconceived, values and interests of the Gen Y consumer cohort should be considered.
Consumer Behaviour Project (2013): Sex in AdvertisingEileen Chen
Given the task of exploring a topic within "sex in advertising", my team and I chose to perform research on the prevalence of violence and sex in advertising. (Project completed April 2013).
Sex sells. I will present you AIDA advertising concept and maslow’s hierarchy of needs and how it works together in advertising.
After that some testimony for you to believe and chosen examples to understand it better.

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.
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

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.

2. Lighting
In this scene the only lighting used is from the helmets this adds
effect because it gives it more of a gloomy affect and because it is
so dark they vulnerable to anything around them. The infer red
light also adds effect because it shows the viewer what is going
on but also adds effect because you know that only one character
that is holding the camera can see what is going on in the dark.
3. location
• The location In clip 4 is deep into the cave this
adds effect because the viewer knows that if
anything happens to them it is very hard to
escape. Also the cave adds effect because of
how dark and cramped it actually is. Because
the cave is so cramped the viewers know that
there is now escape for the people trapped
inside.
4. Costume
The costume in clip 4 involves normal caving gear which is acceptable
for what the characters are doing, however in the film the girls are
always wet awhile they are in the cave by this it brings sex appeal to
any male viewers of the film.
5. Props
The main props used in this clip are helmets and torches this is because
the scene is so dark the main things the woman need in this scene are
these items because this scene is so dark you can only see a few props
another prop you can see are the bones left on the floor which one the
characters crawls on to.
6. Sound
• The sound used in the film is full of suspense
and brings the whole film together as a horror
movie. The sound is mainly used to make the
film seem scarier than it actually is. The sound
also makes the audience know what is going
to happen soon the sound tells the viewer
that something bad is going to happen.
