When it comes to "live streaming a classroom" the first thing you should consider is privacy. Do you want the entire world to be able to see your live stream or just your students? Here is a shortlist of education online communication types you could consider:
School-Wide Announcement (ideal for live stream)
Public School Meeting (ideal for live stream)
Grade Wide Online Session (ideal for private live stream)
Private Classroom Lesson (ideal for online meeting technology)
Small Breakout Sessions (only available with video conferencing software like Zoom)
One on One Meeting (ideal for online meeting technology)
As you can see, the list above goes from public-facing live streams to private online meetings. It's important to start by considering your audience and the type of live stream or online meeting you want to host.

Students Creating and Submitting Digital Presentations Using PanoptoKonstantina Martzoukou
With the current shift experienced in Higher Education towards micro-learning, flipped and blended classrooms, class recordings may involve different types of activities in addition to lecture capture. For example, staff may use recordings for walk-through demonstrations, practical sessions, revision activities, and assessment overviews. In addition, recordings may be used for non-teaching purposes, such as course orientation, guest talks and resources designed to support students’ accessibility, widening participation, inclusivity, belongingness and study flexibility. However, there can also be student-led recorded presentations, which help students to develop a range of professional skills, such as effective presentation, team-work and digital literacy skills. The recording of student presentations may also help to simplify moderation and quality assurance processes.

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.
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.

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.

using digital media technologies for creative Teaching and Learning
1. Creative T&L with digital media technology: using Blogspot & Prezi.com
2. For those not yet familiar with Prezi.com it is an online presentation method that allows for 3-dimensional presentations with hyperlinks, video, slides etc all embedded. Students can open it at home, in an internet café or library or at school – and continue working where they last finished, access is free and if you choose the education option you get more for you (no)money. It takes most people about 5 minutes to register and it is not blocked by county
3. What is expected by the Media & Photography Exam Boards? Independent learners Digitally literate Multi-tasking High level of critical theory High quality production values Interactive contemporary Global Socially and culturally aware Individual and group work from each student Effective combinations of theory and practical Synoptic approaches
5. This has meant becoming more digitally literate and media ‘savvy’ but this has transformed the T&L in a very positive way. We began with paper-based worksheets that drove discussion and essays but the specification is now far more virtual – we can post no coursework to the board it must all be online.
6. In my prezi account I now have saved copies of all previous students prezi presentations, or evaluations – I share them with other prezi users (such as teachers or students) and in return I can access their teaching materials
7. Because you save the prezi as a copy you can then edit and add to it before saving with a rename – this one saved me hours – students love finding a good prezi to use – but must be taught about validity, reliability, and citing the work of other authors
8. Prezi has lots of new features – we have just begun to use ‘Prezi Meeting’ – it allows up to 10 people to present, create or edit one prezi, in real time; access is by invite only and time limited.
9. As usual with Prezi they have excellent tutorials that are succinct and to the point This one walks you through prezi meeting but KieronMarchese, Lee Cooper and I worked it out online in 2 minutes.
10. Step 1 I created the start page by giving it a title and some further structure. Prezi now allows you to create a custom colour, font and (limited) shape palette. I went for bold and creative
11. The Mutant Mickey Mouse on the left is the tools is the tool bar Insert is to add images or pdf or audio, arrows, highlights etc Frame provides the boxes and frames Path allows control of what order the prezi is seen in Colours lets you set up the page/font type and colour
12.
13. When you are choosing the files to upload the programme will simply not see anything in the ‘wrong’ format – it must be image based so jpeg or pdf are fine
14.
15.
16. As a solo means of presentation Prezi is excellent and the students in media and photography are now ‘habitualised’ to creating a prezi which they then use to present their work to an audience AND they embed it in their blogs – as it is not blocked by county we can watch them in the classroom where we video the students doing a presentation – they can then upload that too and provide clear evidence of reflective Q&A sessions
17. Ten months on and we can now use Prezi Meeting – in lesson and out of classes. The invite process is straightforward – it took me 10 minutes to set up and students to answer:
18. as I was working at home I had no access to student emails and so had to use the Facebook student page we created for sharing work and ideas; in school the process would use school email addresses, editing rights stay open for exactly one week – perfect for setting group presentation tasks.
21. A number of students have begun to add comment – each time I look more is there – In a classroom based situation I would have more control BUT this way I can see who is prepared to explore and try – they all have little avatars with their names above them.
22. By using prezi students and I can upload and share videos and footage – YouTube is blocked in school – but I can see it later and Vimeo is allowed by County, By being a member of the prezi meeting I can step in where needed and support or direct learning but equally one student could instigate and invite the meeting and group presentation; Students can be directed to suitable resources such as these excellent video examples of Film Noir
23. How could I effectively use a combination of prezi / blog and paper-based activities? Using the whiteboard you can place a section in context or use it to introduce group tasks/activities Students are gathered around the whiteboard enabling rigorous ‘no-hands-up’ questioning routines to engage and motivate Create or choose a prezi that covers the topic you want to introduce analyse or review. In this case media theory: In this example mine is embedded in my blog – it makes lesson prep easier.
24. Using PREZI Students can be effectively ‘paired’ to make best use of resources, established skill levels and time available; plus the meeting invite only lasts 7 days – no time allowed for slacking…. Create a template within prezi for one slide / image / statement. *Invite students to ‘edit’ using the meeting facility in prezi – max of 10 students allowed at once *allocate a timescale and ‘rules’ – e.g. is internet research and upload allowed? * Decide who sets the rules – it is an excellent way to promote student leadership and discussion – how will the group organise their time, how competitive are they…
25. Working from a paper copy Present a more balanced and evidenced argument What impact do the images have? Present evidence that I understand the way that concepts of ethics are used within this Is there relevant information in the prezi that will contextualise this piece of writing – what am I the reader expected to understand? What are the abstract and moral concepts here? Who is the preferred reader? Is ethical validity pre-determined? What is being argued here? KEY WORDS: ASSESSMENT CRITERIA: TIMESCALE:
26. Or the whole process can become part of a blog good practice is modeled and shared Lesson plans and outcomes are shared Independent learning is guided only to the level needed by the student AFL in implicit and ongoing Time management is evident Work is interactive and students love it.
