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.

8. J01: TELEVISION
SECTION A
Focus: the continuities and changes in
mainstream tv drama over time, through
one historical and one contemporary
programme.
Case study 1: Cuffs (2015)
A pre-watershed drama that illustrates:
• The dominance of the police drama genre
• The industrial importance of serial narrative
form in tv
• The role of the BBC in the contemporary tv
industry
• How representations reflect contemporary
contexts
• Uses and gratifications theory applied to
mass audiences in an increasingly
segmented market
• The contrasts between the social. cultural,
historical and political contexts of
mainstream texts in the mid-1960s (The
Avengers) and mid-2010s (Cuffs)
Case study 2: The Avengers (1965)
A landmark 1960s tv series that
reflected the brand image of ITV as
more daring in this era:
• Mainstay of 1960s primetime tv
• Became cult tv; important example
of 1960s popular drama; still aired
today on British tv
• Monochrome but comparatively rich
media language for the period
• Series 4 was sold to US tv and
played a role in representing UK to
the rest of the world, showing
worldwide in 20 countries
• Reinforced stereotypes of
traditional British upper class
9. J01: PROMOTING MEDIA
SECTION B Media forms: Film, Advertising and Marketing,
Video Games

campaign and UK TV trailer
Case study 2: The Lego Movie film
Case study 3: The Lego Movie video game
This section is all about how a major
global studio, Warner Bros, releases a film
in a specific national territory (the UK).
We study how Warner operates through its
patterns of production, distribution and
circulation. We investigate how Warner
uses Lego to promote its own products
(like Batman & Superman), using a
synergetic package of products and
creating representations that target
specific audiences.
12. J02 MUSIC AND NEWS
We explore how media products use different methods and
language to connect to their different audiences.
Music videos
Music magazines
Newspapers
Online news
Radio
13. J02 MUSIC AND NEWS
SECTION A: MUSIC
This section consists of:
• an in-depth study of magazines: case study:
MOJO magazine
• a comparative study of a pair of music videos:
Wheatus Teenage Dirtbag and Avril Lavigne Sk8ter
Boi
• a study of contemporary radio: case
study Radio 1 Live Lounge
14. Avril Lavigne Sk8er Boi
• Lavigne explores stereotypes in this story of teenage love
and rejection.
• She sings of a girl who rejects Sk8er Boi because she
feels him to be unworthy of her. She is influenced by her
friends and shallow enough not to see his true worth.
They judge him by his clothes. “He was a punk / She did
ballet” suggests the social divide.
• Towards the end, the roles are reversed to reveal the
reality, with the girl feeling crestfallen as the young
man soars to wealth and success. She is left behind,
lonely with her baby at home, while he is the centre of
attention as a superstar, feted by her friends on MTV.
• The singer asserts that she could “see the man that boy
could be” and now has the reward of his love and shares
his success. Together, they write the lyrics for the song
about “pretty face”, the girl who judged him by
appearances and turned him down. The world now will
scorn her. Sk8r Boi has his revenge?
• On the surface, the message of the lyrics and the
representations appears to be: people are judged on
appearances and treated demeaningly by society, which
fails to appreciate their real worth. However, underlying
this is a story of revenge and female insecurity, with
Sk8r Boi exploiting his power to punish his teenage
crush.
• Song Lyrics here.
• He was a punk
She did ballet
What more can I say
• He wanted her
She'd never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
• But all of her friends
Stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes
• He was a skater boy
She said see you later boy
He wasn't good enough for her
• Too bad that you couldn't see
See the man that boy could be
There is more that meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside…
15. WHEATUS Teenage Dirtbag
“Man I feel like mould, it’s prom night and I am
lonely, low and behold, she’s walking over to me,
this must be fake …. How does she know who I
am?”
Teenage unrequited love is perfectly encapsulated
in Wheatus’s 2000 hit Teenage Dirtbag. Music
channel “The Hits” ranked it number 69 in the
Top 100 Greatest Pop Songs of All Time and it
spent four weeks at number one in Australia.
In true happy-ever-after American style, the shy,
geeky guy – played by Jason Biggs in the music
video – eventually wins over the ‘unattainable
girl’, played by Mena Suvari.
Or was it a dream?
What themes do the two music videos have in
common?
What are the contrasts in their representations?
Consider the differences between their
audiences.
“In the summer of 1984, in the woods behind my
house, there was a Satanic, drug-induced ritual teen
homicide; and the kid who did it was called Ricky
Kasso, and he was arrested wearing an AC/DC T-
shirt. That made all the papers, and the television,
obviously; and here I was, 10 years old, walking
around with a case full of AC/DC and Iron Maiden and
Metallica [songs] – and all the parents and the
teachers and the cops thought I was some kind of
Satan worshipper. So that's the backdrop for that
song." Brown also added that the song's sing-a-long
chorus remains an act of defiance: “Just because I
like AC/DC doesn't mean I'm a devil worshipper. “
16. MOJO
The magazine set media
product, MOJO, is a serious
‘classic rock’ magazine that
targets an upmarket and
mature audience, reflecting
the context of the economic
power of the ‘babyboomer’
generation.
In terms of media industries,
MOJO is a good example of
diversification. A product with
a clear audience address –
engaging the passion of music
fans who consider themselves
discerning – reflected in a
consistent media language
house style that is accessible
for analysis.
We study all four areas of the
media theoretical framework
(language, representation,
industry & audience), including
all relevant theoretical
approaches and social and
cultural contexts.
