The semilunar cartilages are commonly called menisci and form an important shock-absorbing mechanism, which helps in the gliding movement of the tibia on the femur. Injuries to the meniscus are common in young adults and are often sustained by the football players.
A meniscus tear is usually caused by twisting or turning quickly. These tears can occur when you lift something heavy or play sports. As you get older, your meniscus gets worn. This can make it tear more easily.
An abduction external rotation violence, on a flexed weight-bearing knee, causes a tear in the medial meniscus. in football, it occurs when the player standing on one leg, which is slightly flexed at the knee, turns to tackle the ball with the other leg.
The lateral meniscus is damaged by the opposite violence, that is, internal rotation and abduction violence of the tibia or a semiflexed weight-bearing knee.
Management
Paracetamol
Anti-inflammatory medicalYou can also take medication such as ibuprofen, aspirin, or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) medication to reduce pain and swelling around your knee.

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

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.
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.

3. ANATOMY OF MENISCI
• Fibrocartilaginous discs
• Shaped like crescents
• Placed on tibial condyles
Each meniscus has following
• 2 ends- anterior and posterior ends
• 2 borders- outer and inner border
• 2 surfaces- upper & lower surfaces ,
peripheral part and inner part
4. FUNCTIONS OF MENISCI
Stability of joint
Helps in weight transmission
Shock absorber
Increase contact area
Supply nutrition to articular cartilage
Helps in locking mechanism
Assists and controls gliding and sliding motion of knee
Proprioceptive impulses
5. TYPES
Lateral menisci
Medial menisci
a) semicircular
b) wider from behind
c) Posterior fibers of anterior end continuous
with transverse ligament
d) Peripheral margin adherent to deep part of
tibial collateral ligament
6. SCREW-HOME MECHANISM
The "screw-home" mechanism, considered to be a key element to knee stability, is the rotation between the tibia and
femur and occurs at the end of knee extension, between full extension (0
o
) and 20
o
of knee flexion. The tibia rotates
internally during the open chain movements (swing phase) and externally during closed chain movements (stance
phase). External rotation occurs during the terminal degrees of knee extension and results in tightening of both
cruciate ligaments, which locks the knee. The tibia is then in the position of maximal stability with respect to the femur.
7. Injury to the medial meniscus of the knee
The medial meniscal injury is more
common than lateral meniscal injury
because lateral meniscus has:-
small diameter
Thicker periphery
More mobility
Attachment to both cruciate ligaments
Stabilization to femoral condyle by
popliteus
8. CLASSIFICATION
SMILLE’S CLASSIFICATION O’CONNOR CLASSIFICATION
1. LONGITUDNAL TEARS
peripheral attachment tear 10%
complete tears 23%
segmental tear 2%
2. HORIZONTAL TEARS- 48% posterior anterior
and middle
3. CYSTIC DEGENERATION- 2%
4. CONGENITAL ANOMALIES 5%
5. DEGENERATIVE LESIONS
Based on tear pattern found during surgery
A. Longitudinal Tear
B. Radial Tear
C. Horizontal Tear
D. Bucket Handle Tear
E. Parrot Beak Tear
F. Segmental/Flap tear
10. MECHANISM
OF INJURY
Tear of meniscus from periphery and its longitudinal splitting
Excessive force leads to
Trapping of posterior horn in this position by sudden extension of
knee
Posterior segment of medial meniscus is forced towards joint’s
center
Internal Rotation of femur over tibia with knee in flexion
13. SYMPTOMS
• ON INITIAL INJURY
1. Pain on inner side of knee
2. History of locking
3. Swelling over knee
4. Recovery after initial episode
• FURTHER INCIDENTS
1. Knee periodically gives trouble
2. Locking history may or may not be present
3. Unlocking (Pathognomonic)
4. Click
5. Feeling something moving within the joint
6. Pain on inner side of knee
• BETWEEN INCIDENTS
Knee is normal

15. EXAMINATION
Test Position: Standing.
Performing the Test:
Have the patient stand on the test leg with the knee
bent to 20 degrees of flexion (the opposite leg is
flexed behind the patient).
The patient may place his/her hands on the hands of
the examiner for balance during the test.
The patient then rotates the knee medially and
laterally 3 times each direction.
A positive test occurs when the patient experiences
joint line discomfort or if locking/catching occurs.
16. Test Position: Sitting.
Performing the Test: With the patient sitting at the
edge of the table and the patient's knees bent 90
degrees, palpate the lateral and medial tibiofemoral
joint line. A positive test occurs when pain is
produced.
17. Test Position: Supine.
Performing the Test:
Place the patient's tested leg in maximal hip and knee
flexion.
While palpating the joint line, apply a valgus force to
the knee, while simultaneously externally rotating and
extending the knee completely.
Place the tested leg back in maximal hip and knee
flexion. While palpating the joint line, apply a varus
force to the knee, while simultaneously internally
rotating and extending the knee completely.
A positive test occurs when pain or clicking/thudding is
produced
18. Test position: prone position with the knee flexed to 90
degrees.
Performing the test:
• The patient's thigh is rooted to the examining table
with the examiner's knee.
• The examiner laterally and medially rotates the tibia,
combined first with distraction, while noting any
excessive movement, restriction or discomfort.
• The process is then repeated using compression
instead of distraction.
• If rotation plus distraction is more painful or shows
increased rotation relative to the normal side, the lesion
is most likely to be ligamentous.
• If the rotation plus compression is more painful or
shows decreased rotation relative to the normal side,
the lesion is most likely to be a meniscus injury.
23. Aim to make rehabilitation programme more effective and faster
recovery.
