Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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

Spectral Classification of Stars
The advent of the spectroscope
in the 1800's allowed astronomers to
study the temperatures and
compositions of stars, and to classify
stars according to their spectral
similarities. At first, 26 classes were
defined; one for each letter in the
alphabet. But only 7 are actually major
classes, and these survive today as
the series 'O, B, A, F, G, K, M'. This
series follows decreasing star
temperatures from 30,000 K (O-type)
to 3,000 K (M-type).

Problem 1 - Sort the five stellar spectra according to their closest matches with
the standard spectra at the top of the page. (Note, the spectra may not be to the
same scale, aligned vertically, and may even be stretched!)
Problem 2 - The star α Lyr (Alpha Lyra) has a temperature of 10,000 K and β
Aqr (Beta Aquarii) has a temperature of 5,000 K. What do you notice about the
pattern of spectral lines as you change the star's temperature?
Problem 3 - What spectral types appear to be missing from the sample of
stars?

2. Problem 1 - This is designed to be a challenge! Student strategies should include
looking for general similarities first. One obvious way to group the spectra in terms of
the increasing (or decreasing!) number of spectral lines.
Alpha Lyr (Alpha Lyra) and Beta Tau (Beta Tauri) can be grouped together
because of the strong lines that appear virtually alone in the spectra (these are
hydrogen lines). The second grouping, Group 2, would include Alpha Lep (Alpha
Leporis) and Alpha CMi (Alpha Canis Minoris) because they have a different pattern of
strong lines than Group 1 but also the hint of many more faint lines in between. The
last 'group' would be for Beta Aqr (Beta Aquarii) because it has two very strong lines
close together (the two lines of the element calcium), but many more lines that fill up
the spectrum and are stronger than in Group 2.
Group 1:
Vega (Alpha Lyra) - A type star
Alnath (Beta Tauri) - B type star
Group 2:
Arneb (Alpha Leporis) - F type star
Procyon (Alpha Canis Minoris) - F type star
Group 3:
Sadalsuud (Beta Aquarii) - G type star
Comparing Group 1, 2 and 3 with the standard chart, Group 1 consists of the B
and A type stars, in particular Alpha Lyra has the thick lines of an A-type star, and Beta
Tauri has the thinner lines of a B-type star; Group 2 is similar to the spectra of the F-
type stars, and Group 3 is similar to the G-type stars.
Problem 2 - Vega has a temperature of 10,000 K and Beta Aquari has a temperature
of 5,500 K. What do you notice about the pattern of spectral lines as you change the
star's temperature?
Answer: What you should notice is that, as the temperature of the star gets
cooler, the number of atomic lines in this part of the spectrum (visible light) increases.
Problem 3 - What spectral types appear to be missing from the sample of stars?
