Have you ever “googled” yourself and wondered what you (and others) can find about yourself? Do you know what your personal brand is and what is a personal brand anyhow? This webinar will provide some insights on personal branding, exploring how you project yourself to others whether in-person or to a virtual community, and what your “reputation” means in a digital world. We will introduce some simple exercises for participants to explore their unique strengths with the intention of building a personal brand. We’ll transition into how you can project and build your personal brand into the social media/online world. Tools and techniques for personal branding will be suggested in this session.
AASHE 2014 Student Summit- Preparing for the Real World: Kickstarting Your Su...Mieko Ozeki
While students will still have to determine the exact career they would like to pursue, and maybe pick out what they will wear on interview day, at the end of the workshop they should hopefully have the rest covered. Attendees will assess their hard and soft skills, discover what work they enjoy, determine the assets they need to build, learn how to build a professional portfolio and learn how to create their own brand to set them apart. We hope to have students walk out of the presentation confident that they can handle the next steps to land their first job out of college. No matter their major, job experience, and extracurriculars, students will leave with a better appreciation of their strengths and understand there are multiple paths to be followed on the way to their dream green job. Attendees will learn about themselves through interactive activities, including mind mapping and writing their own compelling and engaging story. Attendees are encouraged to assess and reflect on their own personal experiences and passions to uncover what makes them unique and valuable. They will then be able to build their own personal portfolios and establish an undeniable online and physical presence. We even offer a brief introduction to the general sustainability field, as well as suggest on-campus tools and search engines to find green jobs.
The Role of Sustainability in Career and Workforce DevelopmentMieko Ozeki
Presented at AASHE 2014 in Portland, OR in October 2014. Sustainability offices are in a unique position on campus. With the ability to work across departmental boundaries of campus on sustainability initiatives, our offices can provide professional development opportunities for students to work on while meeting project and program objectives. Internship programs give students the chance to develop their hard and soft skills, gain work experience, and cultivate a body of work for their portfolio; all within the relatively protected setting of an academic environment. This session focuses on how we can serve as workforce trainers and career development facilitators, suggesting best practices for designing and implementing an internship program within your office.
Sustainability Officers 1.0 To 2.0 Toolkit Strategic And Sane Workload Manag...Mieko Ozeki
prepared by Mieko Ozeki, Lindsey Cromwell Kalkbrenner (Santa Clara University), Tavey McDaniel Capps (Duke University), and Smith Getterman (Baylor University) and presented at AASHE 2012 Conference.
Sustainability staff are involved in many initiatives at a time, and often these are run in collaboration with multiple stakeholders. The Sustainability Office version 1.0 consisted of one staffer--it was easy to determine priorities, manage work flow, and keep track of programs and contacts. The Sustainability Office version 2.0 consists of multiple staff (or students) and a bigger presence on campus. This means we are faced with more “hands in the toybox” and increasing demands from the campus community. How do we juggle multiple concurrent projects, share institutional memory, nurture relationships with campus contacts, repeat best practices, and avoid past mistakes? Overall, how do we create a sense of personal sustainability within the professional operation of our sustainability programs?
Sustainability officers from four universities will share strategies they use to seek balance in the workplace. Many tools exist to help (or hinder) our workflow and projects--we just need to identify our specific needs and determine which tool is best for our work environment. Panelists will share tools they use to increase efficiency when managing staff and students, organizing and tracking progress of multiple projects, documenting and sharing campus metrics, and effectively harness the power of collaboration with campus partners. Rather than simply describing the tools we use, and the purpose(s) they serve on our campuses, we will share our thought processes and strategies in tool selection.
Project Management Strategies for the Environmental LeaderMieko Ozeki
Do you feel like you have a million projects going on at your organization? Are you having a difficult time keeping track of and managing these projects?

A campus sustainability fund (also called green fund) is money available to campus community members for sustainability projects. Money for the fund may be from student fees, administrative budgets, or alumni donations and funding may be allocated in the form of grants or loans. Currently, there are over 175 green/sustainability funds in North America run by 155 institutions. Our goal as session leaders is to educate our audience beyond the basics of sustainability funds, by adhering to an overall theme of “So you have established a sustainability fund, what next?” We will cover case studies from six well-established sustainability funds and address key differences and patterns in how these funds have evolved in their management and processes.
Topics covered include: 1) strategies for soliciting sustainability projects; 2) criteria for projects: what can and cannot be funded; 3) project implementation plans and long-term support of projects beyond initial funding; 4) sustainability fund staffing and committee structures; 5) advising project leaders; and 6) and quantifying and reporting the metrics of funded projects.
Session leaders will break the 60–minute session into three 20-minute sections: (1) project solicitation and developing selection criteria with committees and staff; (2) project implementation, advising project leaders, and reporting structures; and (3) long-term integration of the fund and projects with institutional goals and structures. Each 20-minute section will include presentation from the session leaders and Q&A with the audience. The opening question we plan to answer is “What are we trying to accomplish with these funds?” and the concluding question we plan to answer is “What are the broad educational impacts of sustainability funds?” Post session we intend to create a white paper on best practices of managing a sustainability funds that will include case studies. This workshop is part of a series and a follow-up to Green Funds 1.0: Getting a Fund Started.

Designing, Implementing, and Project Managing Campus Green FundsMieko Ozeki
Presented on March 21, 2012 at Ball State University's Greening of the Campus IX Conference by Mieko Ozeki, Sustainability Projects Coordinator and Clean Energy Fund Manager.
College campuses across the U.S. and abroad have seen a growth of student campaigns to take institutional action on climate change. One of the barriers to implementing sustainability initiatives on-campus has been financing these efforts through existing internal resources, such as general and administrative funds or institutional endowments. Student green fees are one of many alternative financial mechanisms to support sustainability initiatives on college campuses. Documentation on student green fees focus primarily on the creation of this financial structure through student campaigns, but there are limited resources that explore the design and management of these programs once they go into effect.
This paper reviews the institutional characteristics of 89 colleges and universities in the North America that currently collect at least one student green fee. A total of 98 green fees have been identified from student reports, online research, and an online survey conducted in October 2010. A majority of these fees was allocated to a broad range of sustainability initiatives while others explicitly fund services such as recycling programs, green attributes of capital construction projects, or supporting a campus sustainability office. Five sustainability managers were interviewed for an exploratory review of lessons learned on the design and implementation of student green fee programs. Four areas of student green fee design and management are highlighted with advice from sustainability managers. The intent of this presentation is to provide background info on this funding mechanism and offer recommendations on best practices for designing green fee campaigns and managing funded projects.

AASHE 2014 Mind Mapping: A Systems Thinking Application for Change ManagementMieko Ozeki
A pre-conference workshop, co-facilitated at AASHE 2014 by Mieko Ozeki and Jenna Ringelheim. A growing number of students, faculty, and staff are increasingly concerned about their environmental impacts and demand immediate action to be taken. Despite good intentions, these same people can act in haste rather than strategically implementing a long term solution. This session will guide participants through the process of mind mapping, based on the frameworks of systems thinking, design thinking, and project management, to identify opportunities for collaboration and mitigating/managing risk. Workshop participants will learn about the process of mind mapping, a technique for visually diagramming information. They will be given an example of how a campus applies this technique to looking at a specific issues, develop and implement an action plan during the session. Mind mapping is a strategic planning process for implementing sustainability into institutional operations, academics, and planning, administration, and engagement. It applies systems thinking, design thinking, and project management. Participants will draft a mind map, scope statement, and task list that focuses on a current issue he/she is working on at their institution. The workshop provides sustainability officers with the space and time to think and construct a strategy for addressing an issue on campus. The workshop time is 15% presentation and 85% discussing/constructing a mindmap with partners. Be prepared for this work session and bring two problems we can work on together through this process.

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

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.
