This document discusses interaction and performativity in digital art exhibitions. It notes that interactive digital art has shifted the focus from objects to processes. Visitors' experiences at art museums and galleries are shaped by social and cultural norms and expectations. Different levels of interaction can occur, including interaction with artworks through human-computer interaction and interaction with other visitors through human-human interaction. The document analyzes two case studies of interactive art exhibitions and explores how feelings of shyness can emerge situationally based on perceptions of relative competence or incompetence in interaction, especially with technological or cultural competencies, and the fear of embarrassment. It concludes that museums and galleries have undergone transformations that change the role of visitors and require new levels of competence and increased

Some critics may have you believe that computer game studies lack theoretical rigor, that games cannot afford meaningful experiences. I agree with them, sometimes, but I also believe that a richer understanding of computer games is possible, and that this understanding can shed some light on related issues in the wider field of Digital Humanities.
My main area of research has been designing and evaluating how contextually appropriate interaction can aid the understanding of cultures distant in time, space, and in understanding to our own. This field is sometimes called Virtual Heritage. In Virtual Heritage, tools of choice are typically virtual reality environments, and the projects are very large in scale, complexity, and cost, while my projects are often prototypes and experimental designs. I have many challenges, for example, morphing technological constraints into cultural affordances, and avoiding possible confusion between artistic artifice and historical accuracy, all the while evaluating intangible concepts in a systematic way without disturbing the participants’ sense of immersion. To help me judge the success or failure of these projects I have shaped some working definitions of games, culture, cultural understanding, cultural inhabitation, and place. However, these concepts and definitions are not enough. I also have to now tackle the issues of simulated violence, artificial “other” people, the temptation of entertainment masquerading as education, and the difficulties inherent in virtually evoking a sense of ritual.
My lecture, then, is a discussion into how game-based learning, and the study of culture, heritage and history, might meaningfully intersect.

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

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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
2. Sociological inquiry
• Sociology of art
– Art production (Becker 1982)
– Exhibiting (MacDonald 2002)
– Experiencing arts (Heath & vom Lehm 2004)
• Characteristics of art institutions
– Thought provoking, encouraging for individual /
subjective perception
3. Interactive digital art
• ’An art world is born when it brings
together people who never cooperated
before to produce art' (Becker 1982)
• The development of the interactive art has
shifted focus from object to process.
4. The visiting experience
• Shared meaning of art museum and gallery
• Socially and culturally determined rules and
norms of the visit
• Cultural competence of the visitors
• Performing in front of the audience -the
symbolic interactionist approach (Goffman
1959, Scott 2007)
5. Interaction in interactive exhibition?
• The cultural and social transformation of
museum space
– From traditional object-centred to interactive
visitor-focused
• Changes in visiting experience
– From passive stroll to active engagement
• Different levels of interaction
– With artwork (human-computer interaction)
– With other visitors (humam-human interaction)
6. Methodology
Two case studies from interactive art exhibitions
Research questions:
1. What situations give rise to feelings of shyness about how individuals are
being perceived and what data is being collected about them
2. How do gallery/museum visitors engage with exhibitions?
3. What are gallery/museum users’ understandings and experiences of
shyness?
4. What do they experience as shyness triggers in the context of
gallery/museum spaces?
Methods includes qualitative fieldnotes, observation,
interviews with staff and visitors, focus group with artists,
curators and museum/gallery staff.
7. Situationally emerging emotions
• Rather than individuals being inherently shy or non-shy,
shyness emerges situationally in the context of
interaction (Scott 2007)
• Shyness, embarrassment and intimidation requires
interaction with other people.
' Feelings of shyness arise when one perceives oneself as
relatively incompetent at interaction, and fears being exposed as a
poor team player. If we anticipate that we will say or do ‘the wrong
thing’ and face embarrassment, surely it makes perfect sense to
defend oneself emotionally by remaining quiet and avoiding the
spotlight of a frontstage performance' (2006:143, see also
2007:42).
8. Shyness and competence
• Relative incompetence
– The competent other
• Different levels of competences
– Cultural, social
– Technological
• Shyness as frustrated sociability
9. Conclusion
• Transformation of museums and galleries
• Changed role of the visitor
• New levels of competences
• Increased performativity and interactivity
