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
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.
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.

2. • A conceptual framework illustrates what you
expect to find through your research. It
defines the relevant variables for your study
and maps out how they might relate to each
other.
• You should construct a conceptual framework
before you begin collecting data. It is often
represented in a visual format.
3.
4. Independent and dependent variables
• If we want to test a cause-and-effect relationship, we need
to identify at least two key variables: the independent
variable and the dependent variable.
In our example:
• the expected cause, “hours of study,” is the independent
variable
• the expected effect, “exam score,” is the dependent
variable
• In other words, “exam score” depends on “hours of study.”
• Our hypothesis is that the more hours a student studies,
the better they will do on the exam.
5. • Causal relationships often involve several independent
variables that affect the dependent variable.
• However, to keep things simple, we’ll work with just
one independent variable, namely “hours of study.”
• To visualize our expected cause-and-effect
relationship, we will use the basic design components
of boxes and arrows.
• Each variable appears in a box. To indicate a causal
relationship, each arrow should start from the
independent variable (the cause) and point to the
dependent variable (the effect).
6.
7. Moderating variables
• Now we’ll expand the framework by adding a moderating variable.
A moderator alters the effect that an independent variable has on
a dependent variable.
• In our example, we expect that the number of hours a student
studies is related to their exam score: the more you prepare, the
higher your score will be.
• Now we add the moderator “IQ.” A student’s IQ level changes the
effect that the variable “hours of study” has on the exam score: the
higher your IQ, the fewer hours of study you must put in to do well
on the exam.
• In other words, the “IQ” moderator moderates the effect that the
number of study hours has on the exam score.
8.
9. • Let’s take a look at how this might work. The
graph shows how the number of hours spent
studying affects exam score.
• The more hours you study, the better your
results. A student who studies for 20 hours
will get a perfect score.
10.
11. • But the graph looks different when we add an
“IQ” moderator of 120.
• A student with this IQ will already achieve a
perfect score after just 15 hours of study.
12.
13. Mediating variables
Now we’ll expand the framework by adding a
mediating variable. In a cause-and-effect
relationship, a mediating variable is a variable
that links the independent and dependent
variables, allowing the relationship between
them to be better explained.
14. • the mediating variable of “number of practice
problems completed” comes between the
independent and dependent variables. The hours of
study impacts the number of practice problems, which
in turn impacts the exam score.
• In this case, the mediator helps explain why studying
more hours leads to a higher exam score. The more
hours a student studies, the more practice problems
they will complete; the more practice problems
completed, the higher the student’s exam score will be.
15. Moderator vs mediator
• A mediating variable is affected by the
independent variable, and it affects the
dependent variable. Therefore, it links the two
variables and helps explain the relationship
between them.
• A moderating variable is not affected by the
independent variable, even though affects the
dependent variable. For example, no matter how
many hours you study (the independent
variable), your IQ will not get higher.
16. Control variables
• These are control variables—variables that are
held constant so that they don’t interfere with
the results.
• For example, it is likely that if a student feels
ill, they will get a lower score on the exam.
Therefore, we’ll add “health” as a control
variable.
