Sydney Opera House is a state, national and World Heritage-listed item described by UNESCO as ‘a masterpiece of human creative genius’. What is lesser known is that in designing the Opera House, Jorn Utzon was inspired by nature. Building on this legacy, the Opera House has an Environmental Sustainability Plan that aims improve resource efficiency, protect the environment and engage and inspire others about sustainability.
The purpose of the session is to give real life case studies of mathematics applied to sustainability and the design of the Opera House that teachers could use to help inspire the next generation of young people to learn mathematics and science.

Creating Mathematical Opportunities in the Early Years
Presenter, Dr Tracey Muir, for Connect with Maths Early Years Learning in Mathematics community
As teachers, we are constantly looking for ways in which we can provide students with mathematical opportunities to engage in purposeful and authentic learning experiences. On a daily basis we need to select teaching content and approaches that will stimulate our children through creating contexts that are meaningful and appropriate. This requires a level of knowledge that extends beyond content, to pedagogy and learning styles. As early childhood educators, we can also benefit from an understanding of how the foundational ideas in mathematics form the basis for key mathematical concepts that are developed throughout a child’s school.
In this webinar, Tracey will be discussing the incorporation of mathematical opportunities into our early childhood practices and considering the influence of different forms of teacher knowledge on enacting these opportunities.
Make it Count: Maths and Indigenous Learners presented by Caty Morris

Connect with Maths, Make it count with Indigenous Learners community event, YuMi Deadly Maths ~ what it is and how it works. Presenters: Dr Grace Sarra and Robyn Anderson
The webinar will be discussing YuMi Deadly Maths – what it is and how it works. Within these program we aim to:
•facilitate whole school change that builds pride and positive identity, emphasises high expectations, and strengthens relationships with community
•enhance student learning at all levels: early childhood, middle school, senior school and post-compulsory
•support school and TAFE staff to teach effectively
•develop decolonising research methodologies to empower the researched
The YuMi Deadly Centre's vision is Growing community through education. Through research and tailored programs, the YuMi Deadly Centre strives to enhance the learning of Indigenous and non-Indigenous children, young people and adults to improve their opportunities for further education, training and employment, and to equip them for lifelong learning.

Connect with Maths Early Years Learning in Mathematics Webinar series - Mathematical Thinking in the Early Years ( Part 2) Supporting children as mindful mathematicians presented by Louise Hodgson.
This presentation is focused on key mathematical processes - problem solving, reasoning and proof, communication and connections and habits of mind such as curiosity, imagination and persistence which together are as important as mathematical content in a high quality early childhood mathematics program. Practical strategies will be discussed to support young children to develop reasoning which is central to learning about mathematics.

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

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.
