The booklet went on to describe an order from the Cambridge City Council: "That the Civil Defense Department conduct a program through all the media urging the citizens of Massachusetts to communicate to their representatives in Congress and the Legislature the necessity of continuing negotiations with foreign powers to control nuclear arms." The Cambridge School Committee also acted to establish a curriculum to support "children's and young people's understanding of the history, scientific background, economics and politics of waging peace in the nuclear age." Following Cambridge's example, cities from San Francisco to Toronto, Canada to Cambridge, England distributed their own versions of the pamphlet over the next year.
In 1995, the Peace Commission worked with eight Cambridge teachers to developed "Resolition of Conflict Kits" (called ROCKits) as hands-on classroom materials to deal with conflict and cooperation, cultural diversity, and issues of war and peace. These were some of the earliest peace curriculum materials in the country, and contained grade-appropriate books, bibliographies, activity cards, games, songs, musical instruments, art supplies, and folders with ideas for teachers.
With the end of U.S. aid, the Peace Accords were signed in 1992. Some of the delegations since that time focused on support and learning about preserving self-determination in the face of economic privatization and participation in fair elections. A second focus has been teacher delegations drawn to the community-based popular education in San José Las Flores. Cambridge teachers have worked with San José Las Flores classes exchanging letters and materials from Cambridge students and new ways of teaching. Third, eight delegations have gone to San José Las Flores which has included high school students. These youth have met with youth in the village and developed a joint network called VIVA. Recent delegations have also included Salvadorans living in Cambridge as a way to bridge the information and geographic divide.
The Center can help students with communication in a variety of media, oral and visual as well as written. In addition to working with individuals or groups of students, the Center will work with faculty in planning CI courses, devising assignments, establishing criteria that reflect the goals of specific courses, and/or annotating exemplary samples of student work for posting on course web sites or on the Center?s web site. Although Center staff will not grade papers, they will visit CI classes to explain criteria and will base their tutorial work on criteria established specifically for each CI course. For further information about this assistance, please contact Center Director Barbara Lewis (lew...@rpi.edu).
Today's leaders must have the ability to communicate with clarity and integrity. This course seeks to strengthen the capacity of each student to do so in public and private settings while navigating a diverse range of leadership challenges. Approximately one-third of our time together will be devoted to lessons and discussions to introduce students to strategies of communication and models of public presentation. The other two-thirds will consist of smaller sections, in which students will have the opportunity to practice and improve their public speaking skills.
Learning conversations are what we want in class, discussions in which everyone listens and has a say, reasons are asked for, given and considered, and the group works towards joint understanding. This type of talk is exploratory talk. But commonly we might hear children being overly careless about outcomes, agreeable with one another, but monosyllabic and thoughtlessly affirmative. This is cumulative talk. Or perhaps worse, they may be curt, competitive and dismissive of one another, rejecting any ideas that they hear and considering others in the group as inferior or unnecessary. This is disputational talk. The pressure to teach the skills of speaking comes from knowing that without such skills, Exploratory talk is not possible. That means that each individual is educationally disadvantaged because group work is ineffective.
The Department of Adult Education is committed to supporting the School District's mission by providing a world-class education with excellence and equity to empower each student to reach his or her highest potential with the most effective staff to foster the knowledge, skills, and ethics required for responsible citizenship and productive careers.
The area of communication complexity studies measures communication as computational resource---a mathematical abstraction that encompasses all the problems with communication bottleneck. The basic model of communication complexity deals with two parties, namely Alice and Bob. Their task is to compute a function on input which is distributed among them. For doing so, they communicate between each other adhering to a set of rules which they agree upon a priori, and what we measure is the number of bits they need to communicate in order to compute the function. This problem, and many of its variants, appear frequently in practice in many guises and in different levels of abstractions---in network protocols where the goal is to minimize the communication (and thereby error in communication) between two network hubs, in VLSI circuit design where the goal is to minimize energy used and to pack efficiently by decreasing the amount of wires required, also in data-structure, circuit complexity, auctions and a plethora of other interesting areas of study. In this course, we will discuss the classical results in communication complexity and also cover the recent developments and important open problems. We will discuss different models of communication complexity---deterministic, nondeterministic, asymmetric, randomized, and multiparty---and their inter-relationship. We will mostly be interested in showing combinatorial, algebraic and information theoretic techniques for showing communication complexity lower bounds, i.e., for showing that certain functions cannot be computed without a lot of communication no matter how clever the communication algorithm is.
To allow us to study cryptography with appropriate depth, there are two prerequisite courses for the program: CS 201 (Data Structures) and CS 202 (Math of CS). (Math 236 will be accepted in lieu of CS 202.) All students who will have completed those CS courses by Spring 2019 are welcome to apply, no matter their major and no matter their class year. This program fulfills the Formal/Statistical Reasoning and Humanistic Inquiry curricular exploration graduation requirements, along with the International Studies requirement. For CS majors, it also fully satisfies the elective requirements for the major.
The Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English (CAE) is the fourth level of the Cambridge exams in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). It is an advanced exam. Although the level of language skills required is not as high as for the Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English, CAE recognizes the ability to communicate with confidence in English and deal with most aspects of everyday life. CAE is seen by institutions of higher education in many countries as proof of adequate language skills for courses taught and assessed in English. Almost all universities in the United Kingdom and a growing number in the USA recognize CAE, as do many employers throughout the world. A list of institutions and employers that recognize CAE. Studying for CAE helps learners to improve their language skills and use them in a wide range of contexts. The examinations are based on realistic tasks, and indicate the ability to use the language in practical situations. Successful candidates are able to participate in meetings and discussions, expressing opinions clearly and are able to understand and produce texts of various types, including business letters and reports. They will also be aware of the different styles of English appropriate to different situations.
The IELTS skills course will help prepare you for the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exam. Each class will cover one of the four test modules: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. In this course, you will have the opportunity to specifically target each macro-skill, as well as develop grammar, academic vocabulary and writing skills to reach your target IELTS band score. Additionally, you will become familiar with the structure, requirements, question and text types of the IELTS test.
Language classrooms provide the most suitable environment for testing speaking abilities in EFL contexts. In spite of this fact, very few studies have investigated the effect of the language classroom context on L2WTC. Thus, this study investigated the relationship between classroom environment and willingness to communicate in the Turkish EFL context. Classroom environment was dealt with in three parts which were teacher support, student cohesiveness, and task orientation. Quantitative data of the study were collected from 711 preparatory school students at Hacettepe University. The results indicated that the students highly appreciated their language classrooms and classroom environment had a strong impact on EFL learners' WTC. Pedagogical implications of the study were discussed based on the findings of the study.
This interdisciplinary course examines the ways in which societies attempt to enhance and promote health in a range of settings, while critically assessing the associated risks and barriers. This course will provide a sound theoretical understanding of dominant health promotion and protection theories and models, as they relate to contemporary health issues in Australia and internationally. This course emphasises practical application of theory in problem based learning scenarios. Students will gain a sound conceptual understanding enabling them to develop health interventions and communicate effectively with specialist and non-specialist audiences.
