1. A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, either by a blockage or rupture of a blood vessel in the brain. It can cause neurological deficits that last over 24 hours.
2. Risk factors for stroke include high blood pressure, smoking, heart disease, previous TIA or stroke, diabetes, high cholesterol, physical inactivity, obesity, and increasing age.
3. Signs of a stroke include sudden numbness, weakness, or paralysis; trouble speaking, understanding, or seeing; dizziness; and severe headache with no obvious cause. Recognizing these signs early through FAST (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) can be critical for treatment.

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.
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.

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.

stroke is when blood flow to a part of your brain is
stopped either by a blockage or the rupture of a
blood vessel. There are important signs of a stroke
that you should be aware of and watch out for.
4. INCIDENTS:
Ages affected:
1. Babies (0-2) years : rare
2. Toddlers (3-5) years : very rare
3. Children (6-13) years: Very rare

5. Conti......
Every year, more than 7,95,000 people in the
United States have a stroke. About 6,10,000 of these are
first or new strokes. About 18,500 strokes – nearly 1 of 4-
are in people Who have had a previous stroke. Above
87℅of all strokes are ischemic stroke, In which blood flow
to the brain is blocked.
7. DEFINITION
Cerebrovascular accident: The sudden death of some
brain cells due to lack of oxygen when the blood flow to
the brain is Impaired by blockage or ruptured of an
artery to the brain. A CVA is also referee to as astroke.
8. STROKE:
A stroke is an acute neurological deficit,
Lasting longer than24 hours.
A transient ischemic attack is an acute
neurological deficit, lasting less than 24
hours
9. EFFECTS OF STROKE
How much of the brain tissue is affected also determine
the severity of the stroke.
1. Left brain
° paralysis or muscle weekness on the right side of
the body.
° speed/ language problem
° memory loss
° slow cautious behavioral style.
10. 2. Right side of the brain
~ Paralysis or muscle weekness of the right
side of the brain
~ Vision problem
~ Quick behavior style
~ memory loss
14. Hemorrhagic stroke classified in to two
types:
1. Intracerebral hemorrhage
2. Subarachnoid hemorrhage
hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a
weekend blood vessel rupures. The two
types of weekend blood vessel Cause
hemorrhagic stroke
• Aneurysms
• Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).
15. TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK
TIAs or minor strokes are same as for major Stroke
but they May last for only a few minutes.
They include anyone or combination of following:
sudden numbness or weakness in face, arms or legs
especially on one side of the body. Sudden trouble
speaking or understanding.
16. CRYPTOGENIC STROKE
Cryptogenic stroke is defined as an ischemic stroke
that is not attributable to a source of definite
cardioembolism, large artery atherosclerosis, or
small artery disease, despite extensive vascular,
cardiac, and serology evaluation.
17. SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TREATABLE RISK
FACTORS FOR STROKE ARE:
• High blood pressure or hypertension. Hypertension
is by far the most potent risk factor for stroke.
• Cigarette smoking.....
• Heart disease........
• Warning signs or history of TIA or stroke....
• Diabetes.....
