Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.

TALIS 2018 Pre-launch Webinar - New insights on teaching and learning - What ...EduSkills OECD
Do teachers spend more time on actual teaching and learning in a typical lesson compared to previous years? Do they feel prepared to teach when they start teaching? What sort of continuous professional development programmes do they participate in and how does it impact their practice? This report looks first at how teachers apply their knowledge and skills in the classroom in the form of teaching practices, with an accompanying assessment of the demographic makeup of those classrooms and the school climate to provide context on learning environments. The volume then assesses the ways in which teachers acquired their knowledge and skills during their early education and training, as well as the steps they take to develop them through continuous professional development over the course of their career. Based on the voice of teachers and school leaders, the report offers a series of policy orientations to help strengthen the knowledge and skills of the teaching workforce to support its professionalism.The OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) is the largest international survey asking teachers and school leaders about their working conditions and learning environments, and provides a barometer of the profession every five years. Results from the 2018 cycle explore and examine the various dimensions of teacher and school leader professionalism across education systems.
Starting Strong Teaching and Learning International Survey 2018 - Conceptual...EduSkills OECD
The TALIS Starting Strong Survey provides early childhood staff and centre leaders with an opportunity to share insights on their professional development; pedagogical beliefs and practices; and working conditions, as well as various other leadership, management and workplace issues.
The survey seeks to identify strengths of and improvement opportunities for early childhood learning and well-being environments across different countries and jurisdictions, while identifying factors that are open to change. The survey also builds on the OECD‘s study of the teaching profession, the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS).
The TALIS Starting Strong Survey will compare early childhood settings within and across countries, highlighting diversity within systems and identifying points of commonality. Information gained from the data will inform and facilitate policy discussions about staff’s working conditions and training needs, and can help enhance the overall quality of the workforce.
The survey is part of the OECD’s long-term strategy to develop early childhood education and care data, and will serve as the foundation for future analyses of what works for young children.
There is a fast-moving worldwide shift from English being taught as a foreign language (EFL) to English being the medium of instruction (EMI) for academic subjects such as science, mathematics, geography and medicine.

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.

Two-thirds of teachers feel undervalued, says
OECD study
By Sean CoughlanBBC News education correspondent
Fewer than a third of teachers in developed countries feel their profession is valued, according to a
major international study.
But the research from the OECD reveals a wide cultural gap - with a much more positive perception of
teacher status in Asia than in Europe.
Teachers in England were above average in feeling valued, at 35%, unlike France where the figure was
only 5%.
The OECD's Michael Davidson described these as "shocking statistics".
The OECD, responsible for Pisa tests comparing international education standards, has turned its
attention to the state of teaching, examining the working lives of 100,000 teachers and heads in 34
education systems.
The economic think-tank argues that the quality of teaching, more than any other factor, determines the
outcomes of an education system.
Undervalued
But the report - Teaching and Learning International Survey (Talis) - shows that many teachers do not feel
that the importance of their role is recognised.
Only 31% believed that their work was valued by the rest of society. The report says that has implications
for attracting young teachers into the profession.
Within this average were some very wide differences. In Malaysia, South Korea, Singapore and Abu Dhabi
there was a strong sense of teaching being highly respected.
In Europe, Finland was the only country where a majority of teachers were confident in the status of their
job.
The Netherlands and England were the next best valued in Europe. But there was a much gloomier
outlook for teachers in France, Spain and Sweden, where more than nine out of 10 teachers felt their
profession was not respected.
Despite this sense of being unappreciated, there were still high levels of job satisfaction - with a large
majority saying they would choose teaching again as a career choice.
Classroom behaviour
The study provides an overview of the different working weeks.
It shows that teachers in England are working 46 hours per week in term time, considerably above the
international average of 38 hours, with only Singapore, 48 hours, and Japan, 54 hours, working longer.
In contrast, teachers in Italy are only working 29 hours per week, with Finland's teachers working 32 hours.
South Korea's teachers, with some of the best test results in the world, work 37 hours per week.
The research includes a comparison of how much time is wasted in lessons because of bad behaviour.
Poland has the best behaved pupils, according to this measure, losing 8% of lesson to poor behaviour,
with Brazil's pupils the most disruptive, losing 20%.
England has less of a problem with discipline than most other countries, with teachers spending 11% of
lesson time on poor behaviour.
2. But a more detailed analysis in England's schools shows that higher achieving state schools, rated as
outstanding, have less disruption and more teaching time than weaker schools. And independent schools
faced less disruption than state schools.
Lesson lost to keeping discipline Teachers feeling valued Teachers' weekly working hours
Brazil 20% Malaysia 84% Japan 54 hours
Singapore 18% Singapore 67% Singapore 48 hours
France 16% South Korea 16% England 46 hours
Japan 15% Finland 59% United States 45 hours
South Korea 14% Netherlands 40% Sweden 42 hours
Italy 13% England 35% Spain 38 hours
Finland 13% Japan 28% Poland 37 hours
England 11% Denmark 18% South Korea 37 hours
Denmark 10% Italy 13% France 37 hours
Norway 9% Spain 9% Netherlands 36 hours
Estonia 9% Sweden 5% Finland 32 hours
Poland 8% France 5% Italy 29 hours
In terms of more aggressive behaviour, in Brazil, Mexico, Australia and Sweden, there are reports of
regular intimidation and verbal abuse towards teachers.
The study examines how teachers are deployed - and whether the most experienced staff are where the
need is greatest.
The research reveals wide differences. In South Korea, the Netherlands and Chile, all high performing
education systems in their regions, the most experienced teachers are more likely to be working in schools
with the most disadvantaged pupils.
In England, the trend is in the opposite direction, with the most experienced staff less likely to be in these
more challenging schools.
The study also provides a profile of the teaching profession. Most are women, with the average age 43
years old.
Apart from Singapore, England has the youngest teaching force of any of the education systems in the
survey. It has fewer head teachers over the age of 60 than any other developed country.
The research found that many teachers were working in isolation - a majority did not use "team teaching"
with another colleague and only a third observed other teachers' lessons. Almost half did not receive any
feedback from senior staff.
The report says that job satisfaction is improved by a greater sense of participation and collaborative
working.
"We need to attract the best and brightest to join the profession," said Andreas Schleicher, the OECD's
education director.
A spokeswoman for England's Department for Education said: "There has never been a better time to be a
teacher - and there have never been more teachers in England's classrooms, with a rise of 9,000 in the
last year.
"We are incredibly fortunate to have many thousands of dedicated, hard -working teachers, committed to
teaching excellence. Teaching is now one of the most attractive career paths for graduates, with a record
number of top graduates now joining the profession."
Labour's shadow education secretary Tristram Hunt said: "This report is more evidence that raising
teacher quality improves children's learning."
He called for all teachers to be qualified and "undertake continued professional development throughout
their careers".
