The Growth Pole Theory proposes that economic development does not occur uniformly across a region, but rather concentrates around specific industrial "poles" or clusters. As key industries in these poles expand, they stimulate linked industries and drive regional growth outward from the pole through inter-industry linkages and multiplier effects. Three factors that contribute to growth pole development are external economies of scale, industrial agglomeration, and forward and backward production linkages between industries. While influential, the Growth Pole Theory has been criticized for not addressing problems like urban poverty and income inequality within regions.

Definition of Urban Geography.
Urban geography is the study of urban places with reference to their geographical environment.
Urban geography is the sub discipline of geography which concentrates on those parts of the Earth's surface that have a high concentration of buildings and infrastructure
.
It is that branch of science, which deals with the study of urban areas, in terms of concentration, infrastructure, economy, and environmental impacts.

Measuring the effect of trade openness on entrepreneurship development in cas...Azer Dilanchiev
In contemporary world it have been accepted that entrepreneurship is one of the main life-force of modern economic growth. It became extensively researched and an important concept in academic
society. The Georgian government has been trying to encourage entrepreneurship development by
supporting the development of small and medium enterprises in the country, conducting liberal
reforms, and encouraging openness for doing business. The contribution of trade openness on economic growth has been the subject of several theoretical and empirical studies in the economic literature. The purpose of this paper is to investigate and empirically reveal the importance of trade openness on
entrepreneurship development in case of Georgia.

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

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.
2. Growth pole theory
The Growth Pole Theory conceived by French regional economist Francois Perroux (1995) and
later expanded by Boudeville (1966) is a regional and industrial planning model for a “set of
expanding industries located in an urban area and inducing further development of economic
activity throughout of its zone of influence”.
3. Precedent of the theory:
Space as the planning area of decision unit.
Space as the field of forces acting upon the decision units.
Space as the field of homogeneous objects
4. Core idea of the Growth pole theory
•Economic development and growth is not uniform over an entire region
but instead takes place around a specific pole.
•The pole is characterised by key industry around which linked industries
develop mainly through direct and indirect effects.
•Expansion of this industry implies expansion of output, employment,
related investments as well as new technologies and new industrial
sectors.
•Because of scale and agglomeration of economies near the growth pole
regional development is unbalanced. Transport terminals play a
significant role here.
5. According to perroux - Growth does not appear everywhere at the same
time, it appears at points or poles of growth with varying intensity, it
spreads along various channels and with differing overall effects on the
whole economy,
6. Perrux considered two basic aspects as base of his theory
Theory of development
Inter industrial linkages
Thory of development: The theory of development states that Growth is not seen in everywhere
but it is in a form of aggrigate or poles.Growth is not seen in everywhere. it will be seen in a form
of cluster and agglomerate. This is the theory of development.
Inter industrial linkeges: The area which is developing all the industries that are setup they will
be having some linkeges with another . Like One industry depends on another. An output of one
industry will be input for another one. Like we have a firm that is growing cotton now the cotton is
a output of firm A, now that cotton will be a input for firm b which is a cotton mill industry than
it will make cloths from it, now this cloths will turn into finished product like t-shirts. So we can
see all the industries are linked with another.
7. Three main factors of Growth pole theory:
A. External Economics
B. Agglomeration
C. Linkages
External economics - i. Positive: If an iron industry has 3 subsequent industries like steel industry, glass
industry and circuit industry and these 3 industries depend on iron industry. Then if the iron industry produce
more, the subsequent industries will get more amount of raw material.
ii. Negative: On the other hand if the iron industry produce less the subsequent
industries will get less amount of raw material as a result they start producing less.
Agglomeration: Agglomeration is nothing but the expansion of small unit to the large unit.
Example: Before 1968 Ankleshwar is a small town. But after ONGC and some other industry
came and the scenario suddenly change. People migrate in Ankleshwar from nearby villages and
towns for job, labour work and other work, so agglomeration create over there.
8. Linkages - i. Forward linkages: An industry encourages investment in the subsequent
stages of production either by transmitting innovation or effects of innovation forward.
ii. Backward linkages: An industry encourages investment in the earlier stages
of production by expanding its demand for inputs.
9. According to Boudeville, “A set of expanding industries located in an urban area and inducing
further development of Economic activity throughout its zone of influence.”
Boudeville’s Regional development Theory
It is a modification of Perroux theory. He was the one who brought the growth pole theory as
geographical context.
Then he classified economics under three heads –
Economics internal to the firm,
Economics external to firms and internal to the industries,
Economics external to industries but internal to the urbanization.
10. Above mention figure A shows that initially any single growth pole started and then its dependent
terminal started clustering near that parent or growth pole. And then due to that cluster peoples
started migrating nearer to that so it creates an agglomeration near that.
Figure B shows that due to the growth of that primary pole, another growth pole also started over
that region it is called secondary growth pole. This may connect with the primary terminal.
11. Criticism
This theory is unapplicable for the regional problems like urban poverty and
income inequalities.
