The document discusses the use of audiovisual aids in language learning. It explains that senses are the gateways to knowledge and audiovisual aids help make learning situations feel more real to students. Audiovisual aids assist teachers in providing engaging learning experiences through visual and audio perceptions that help students acquire information more effectively in a meaningful and long-lasting way. Different types of audiovisual aids are explored, from pictures and videos to filmstrips and recordings, noting how they enhance language teaching and support various learning styles.
CLT and ALM are approach which helps to learn the language. Both are inter-connected. CLT can apply anywhere where people can communicate and ALM controls the people with such limitation. For proper pronunciation we need ALM but there is such limitation of vocabulary.

Audio Visual Aids are also called instructional material. Audio literally means “hearing” and “visual” means that which is found by seeing. So all such aids, which endeavor to make the knowledge clear to us through our sense are called “Audio Visual Aids” or Instructional Material. All these learning material make the learning situations as real as possible and give us firsthand knowledge through the organs of hearing and seeing. Therefore, any device which can be used to make the learning experience more concrete and effective, more realistic and dynamic can be considered audio visual material. We learn through our sense organs. Senses are the ways of knowledge. All the sense organs help us in understanding the environment. Most of the knowledge, which we acquire from the school, comes through our ears and eyes. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about Audio Visual Aids in the field of Education in very elaborate manner. Please use this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
A Case Study on the Used of Visual Media in English Instructional Process at ...iosrjce
This study was aimed at describing the use of visual media in English classes of State Islamic
Secondary School 1 Malang. This study was a descriptive study. There were observation sheet, questioner, and
interview guide used in this study. The finding showed that first the English teachers at State Islamic Secondary
School 1 Malang use visual media in their instructional process. Second, the English teachers use flash cards,
charts, pictures, and real objects because they were easily available. Third, those visual media used by the
English teachers as means for attracting the students’ attentions, giving the students spirit to ask questions, and
helping the teachers explain the materials. Fourth, all the students have positive attitudes towards the used of
visual media in the instructional process because they can understand the materials better and were not bored
during the instructional process. Fifth, in terms of operating the visual media, the English teacher uses the
visual media by demonstrating and drawing. Sixth, all the English teachers have made the visual media by
themselves. The last, sometimes the English teachers have problems or difficulties in providing and making the
visual media.

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.

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

2. INTRODUCTION
Senses are supposed to be the gateways of knowledge. All these sense
organs help us to understand the environment in which we live. Among these,
the organs of hearing and seeing are the most important. Most of the knowledge
we acquire comes through our eyes and ears. The materials that help us to make
our knowledge clear and vivid through these senses are called Audio – visual
aids. The sufficient study in the application of audio-visual aids is known as
Audio-visual Technology.
Children learn best from direct experience. But it is not possible to
provide all learning situations in their real nature. For example, it is not possible
to take children to the land of the Eskimos in order to study their life in the
Tandras. Here comes audio-visual technology at our service. We use audio-
visual aids to make learning situations as real to the pupils as possible.
In order to supplement the different teaching methods, the teacher uses
various media. Such media are collectively known as audio visual aids. Audio
visual aids assist a teacher in providing suitable learning experiences to learners,
in the form of audio and visual perceptions that would help them acquire new
information more effectively. Such experiences would help to make impressions
meaningful and long lasting and to develop skills.
3. CONTENT
A major aim of the teachers is to make the input comprehensible for the
students, trying to use the target language as much as possible during the lesson,
avoiding direct Usage of Multimedia Visual Aids in the English Language
Classroom translations and extra explanations in the mother tongue. The visual
materials support them in that matter, as they serve as metal scaffolds for the
students and help teachers to correlate and coordinate accurate concepts making
the learning more concrete. Pictures and videos can serve as a connection
between the mother tongue and English, so direct translations are not needed.
This support also allows the teacher to skip excessive explanations and
translations and help them to save time. It is important to mention that visual
materials can create a harmony between the students and the instructional
methodology and materials used as Oxford points out. In our classrooms we
will have to face a wide variety of learning styles, such as visual learners, who
can benefit largely of the visual aids, as thy feel confused when following oral
instructions and conversations. But they are not the only kind of learners helped
by visual aids, ‘kinesthetic and tactile learners enjoy working with tangible
objects, collages and flashcards too’. If the students feel comfortable with the
materials and the methodology, they are expected to perform well, feel
confident and experience low anxiety. Videos, for example, help students in
gaining confidence as they repeat and imitate real models using the target
language. Therefore, students are expected to be more participative in the
classroom.
Different approaches bring the real world to the language classroom
through visuals. Visuals aids for presenting, training, and teaching languages
has been around since the 1920s-1930s, consisting mainly of film strip, pictures,
slides and pass-around objects. They have been considered a useful tool for
teachers in almost every trend of second language teaching. Such was an impact
of visual materials that several universities have even created catalogues of
visual aids that trace the history of using visual literacy and visual education.
Probably, the Direct Approach was the first one give importance to the use of
visuals in the language classroom. This teaching method, which became popular
at the 20s-30s of the last century, enhanced the use of the target language.
Teachers used direct reference to objects in order to avoid the mother tongue.
The use of tape recordings and picture slides gained special importance in the
1950s-1960s with the rise of the Audio-lingual method in the USA.
4. Also in the 1960’s French Scholars developed the Audio-visual method.
This method considered that audiovisual technology is a great contribution to
help teaching. Students were taught through a combination of textbooks,
filmstrips, tape-recordings, slides and classroom presentation. The teacher made
use of several visual aids: colored wooden rods, set of wall charts containing
useful vocabulary, color coded phonetic charts, tapes or discs, film drawings
and pictures, worksheets and transparencies.
Students were not expected to produce to produce output immediately;
they should go through a period of understanding first. Magazine pictures and
other visual and kinesthetic aids were used as an elicitation device in the
listening comprehension and early production stages. Video tapes were
considered the most appropriate visual aid when the teachers were not native.
Linguistic meaning is based on usage and experience, and therefore
students should be place in an environment that trigger their experiences and let
them use the language for real purposes as many times as possible. Visuals can
support the input that the student receives.
The importance of visuals in Second Language Acquisition is that
language teachers seem to agree that the use of visuals can enhance language
teaching. As they help teachers to bring the real world into the classroom, they
make learning more meaningful and more exciting. According to Bamford, it
must be take in to account that visual literacy is the key to obtain information,
construct knowledge and build successful educational outcomes. He asserts that
this is due to the increase of the number of images in the world. It is important
to point that students bring to the classroom their own background, that
nowadays is associated with images provided by mass media, videogames etc.
Visual aids can be a helpful tool in the language classroom as they help
the teacher to clarity, establish, correlate and coordinate accurate concepts,
interpretations and appreciations, and enable him to make learning more
concrete, effective, interesting, inspirational, meaningful and vivid. Visual
material or anything used to help the student see an immediate meaning in the
language may benefit the students and the teacher. Projectors and multimedia
classrooms that have been integrated in high school nowadays, teachers can use
different resources to support their explanations, correct exercises or play
games. In order to make these presentations effective, teachers must be careful
with the visual material and strategies.
5. Conclusion
Usage of Multimedia Visual Aids in the English conclusion Language
Classroom help students to create relations amongst the words, bringing out
more detailed, knowledgeable, responsive, awareness to the object, situation or
text being communicated. Canning also points that the picture can help the
student or to work with more abstract thoughts and organizing skills through the
use of logical structure. In order to help the working memory process the
information, the graphical representations are effective because their processing
require fewer cognitive transformations. It is important to point that in order to
improve memory for lesson content, visuals should be aligned with goals of the
instruction.
