This document outlines the year 7 science curriculum and schedule for Mr. P. Mathison's class. It is divided into six main topics covered from September to July: Introduction to Science, Particles and Materials, Energy Transfer, Biological Foundations, Speed and Pressure, and Biological Ecosystems. Each topic is taught over a period of weeks through lessons and activities. Suggestions are also provided on how parents can support their child's science learning at home through discussions, practice, visits, and encouraging use of extra resources. It notes an after school science club meets weekly on Mondays from 3:20-4:30pm in lab S6, which is very popular with over 35 students regularly attending.
Top 5 questions, answer to which, will be the next big thing in sustainabilit...Mrinmoy Majumder
We are all searching for a contemporary but on-demand topic of research, such that based on that topic, we can prepare papers that journals can accept, or Ph.D. and Postgraduates can be obtained. Normally, we search the existing journals, books, conference etc. depositories to find a gap in the research but this subjective search yields the better within the literature we had searched, but, when some more manuscripts are included, the gaps may change. If you have the same experience, then you are in the correct place. Here we propose not any topic but five most sought-after questions, whose answers are supposed to change the pace of “Sustainability Research”, and you can easily get your suitable topic of research from these answers.

Five most promising topics of research in hydrologyMrinmoy Majumder
Hydrology is a very old subject still; a lot of scope is left in this subject which are hitherto unearthed. Below is the list of five most popular topic of research which have steadily gained its presence in the hydrology related publications, in the last five years
PhD: Self-Forecasting Energy Load Stakeholders for Smart Grids Ilic Dejan 2014Dejan Ilic
The unpredictability of energy loads is responsible for a significant portion of efficiency loss in power grids. Today, we are not only facing uncertainties in consumer loads, but increasing adoption of renewable energy production is also affecting producers. In order to reduce load uncertainties, emerging Smart Grid business models call for the active participation of traditionally passive stakeholders, such as office buildings or even residential consumers. These models include, for instance, active involvement in grid operations, participation in local energy markets, demand response programs, etc. Still, many of these require stakeholders to make accurate load forecasts, which is hard to achieve on small scales.
To overcome this obstacle, this work introduces the concept of variable energy storage where assets of stakeholders, such as electric vehicles, are used to improve accuracy by absorbing errors of their self-forecasts. Since accuracy as such is achieved internally, by reporting the self-forecast to external parties a deterministic energy signature is achieved. The challenges of this dissertation are to (1) enable an efficient communication in between stakeholders, (2) reach sufficient forecast accuracy of an individual or a small group of consumers, and to (3) build a system that enables the deterministic behaviour of self-forecasting stakeholders. This work addresses these challenges and evaluates proposed solutions on real world cases. The combined contribution enables self-forecasting energy load stakeholders whose deterministic load behaviour make them reliable resources that can greatly benefit themselves and other stakeholders. Equally as important, deviation from their predicted loads can be measured and intentional load changes can be verified, solving one of the great problems of incentivizing in Smart Grids.

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.

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.
