This document provides an overview of the study of language or linguistics. It defines language as the means through which humans express thoughts and discusses how language distinguishes humans from other animals. The document then outlines the main branches of linguistic study, including micro linguistics which examines smaller linguistic units like sounds, words, and sentences, and macro linguistics which studies higher-level topics like the social aspects of language and applied uses. It closes by inviting questions.
Linguistics may be defined as the scientific study of human natural language which involves the study of the nature, structure and variation of language, including phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, socio-linguistics, bio-linguistics and pragmatics.
Since linguistics is considered to be scientific study of natural human languages, we need to know the scientific approaches to carry out studies in this field.

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.

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

19. Branches of Linguistics
Microlinguistics
• Phonetics
The study of speech sounds; how they are produced in the vocal tract (articulatory
phonetics), how they are transmitted through the air (acoustic phonetics), and how
they are perceived by the listener (auditory phonetics).
• Phonology
The study of the sound system of language; how the particular sounds used in each
language form an integrated system for encoding information and how such
systems differ from one language to another.
20. • Morphology
The study of the way in which words are constructed out of smaller units
which have a meaning or grammatical function, for example the word
friendly is constructed from friend and the adjective-forming –ly.
• Lexicography
The compiling of dictionaries. Lexicography could be seen as a branch of
applied linguistics
21. • Syntax
The study of how words combine to form sentences and the rules which
govern the formation of sentences.
• Semantics
The study of meaning; how words and sentences are related to the real or
imaginary objects they refer to and the situations they describe.
22. •Pragmatics
The study of the use of language in communication, particularly the
relationships between sentences and the contexts and situations in which
they are used such as time, place, social relationship between speaker and
hearer, and speaker’s assumptions about the hearer’s belief.
23. • Discourse Analysis
The study of how sentences in spoken and written language form larger
meaningful units such as paragraphs, conversations, interviews etc.
