4 Steps to Develop Comprehension and Analysis Skills at HomeOxford Tutoring
The world of education centers on using new research and experience to identify what students need to learn and how teachers can present that information better. While this system has been trusted to help students reach their academic goals in the classroom, what are students and parents supposed to do if they feel that more can be done to enable students to reach their goals?
At the 10/15/2014 Parent Ed talk, Principal Heather Swanson Johnson gave a fascinating presentation about Catharine Blaine's Writer's Workshop. Her talk reminded me how fortunate we are to have passionate educators like her and Ms. Lily in our children's lives.
Even if you missed Heather's dynamic delivery of this PPT, you'll see her main takeaways from her talk about Writer's Workshop. Hope to see you at the next Parent Ed night!
What everyone should know about teaching othersguestd6b71b
In life, as computing professionals, we all teach and we all learn. And, especially in the computing discipline, we don't ever expect that to stop. So whether you plan to work in industry, academia, or somewhere else (a small desert island?) you should know more about what research shows contributes to effective learning. Use this knowledge to learn better yourself or to assist others in their learning.
From the Un-Distinguished Lecture Series (http://ws.cs.ubc.ca/~udls/). The talk was given Apr. 04, 2008.

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.
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.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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

2. Conferencing Thoughts
“I am always impressed by teachers who know enough about the
teaching of writing to be concerned about how to conduct more
effective writing conferences,” Lucy Calkins.
“Conferring can be so hard. Like any uniquely human
interaction, in a conference there is always the possibility that
something totally unexpected might happen,” Katie Wood Ray
3. Length & Frequency of Conferences
2-7 minutes
Try to get to each student once a week.
“On any given day, our goal should be to have as many quality
conferences as we can with as many students as we can,” Katie
Wood Ray.
4. The Four Parts
Research: Find out how the student’s writing is going
Decide: What would make sense to teach the student?
Teach: Teach an on the spot, individualized focus lesson
Record: Jot down notes of essential content
5. Part 1: Research
Recall what we already know about the child as a writer
Glance at and quickly read what the child is writing
Observe the child at work without interrupting
Ask questions and probe to explore the child’s answers
6. Part 1: Research
Possible Questions:
What are you working on as a writer?
Can you tell me what you’re working on?
What’s your plan for writing time today?
What do you need help with today?
Tell me about how your writing is going.
7. Part 1: Research
“Keep in mind that your goal is to learn enough to discern what
the writer is trying to do, able to do, and not quite doing,”
Calkins.
8. Part 2: Decide
“But what makes a conference a powerful teaching interaction is
not finding the best thing in the world to teach this student; it’s
in teaching in direct response to something the student has told
us or shown us about his/her work as a writer. So as soon as we
see a way to go with the teaching, we head it in that direction,”
Katie Wood Ray.
9. Part 2: Decide
Use your “fistful” of knowledge...
What would help most at this time?
What would bring quick success?
What would be a stretch, risk, or challenge?
What is not likely to come up in whole class instruction?
What would the student like help with?
TEACH TOWARD INDEPENDENCE!
10. Part 2: Decide
COMPLIMENT THE STUDENT, THEN TEACH!
What has the writer done well that you can compliment and
reinforce?
11. Part 3: Teach
HOW WILL YOU TEACH?
Demonstrate
Guided Practice
Explain and show an example
12. Part 3: Teach
What strategy did they learn today that they can apply on
another day in another piece?
Ask the student: “Say back to me what I just talked to you
about.”
13. Part 4: Make a Record
Tell the student, “Ok, so what I’m going to write down is...”
Summarize the lesson
Have to find a system that is comfortable for you, or it won’t be
used
Should be a way to divide records easily by individual students
14. Reflecting on Note-Taking
What, exactly, did I teach in that conference?
Why did I decide to teach that?
How does the student seem to feel about the conference?
