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.
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.
1. Anatomy of temporal region and
muscles of mastication
Dr. Mohammed Mahmoud Mosaed
2. Lateral side of the skull
• The lateral side of
the skull can be
divided into an
upper temporal
fossa and a lower
infratemporal fossa,
separated by the
zygomatic arch.
3. The temporal fossa
• The temporal fossa is the fan shaped space on the
lateral side of the skull above the zygomatic arch
• Boundaries
• Inferiorly: by the zygomatic arch and it is continuous
with the infratemporal fossa deep to the zygomatic
arch
• Superiorly and posteriorly: by the temporal lines
• Anteriorly: by the posterior surface of the frontal
process of the zygomatic bone and the posterior
surface of the zygomatic process of the frontal bone
• Laterally: by the temporal fascia, which is overlying the
temporalis muscle
4.
5.
6. The floor of the temporal fossa
• The floor of the temporal fossa is formed by the
frontal and parietal bones superiorly and the greater
wing of the sphenoid and squamous temporal
inferiorly.
• All four bones of one side meet at an H-shaped sutural
junction termed the pterion.
• This is an important anthropometric landmark as it
overlies both the anterior branch of the middle
meningeal artery and the lateral fissure of the cerebral
hemisphere.
• The pterion corresponds to the site of the
anterolateral (sphenoidal) fontanelle of the neonatal
skull which closes in the third month after birth
7.
8. Temporal lines
• The superior and
inferior temporal lines
arch across the skull
from the zygomatic
process of the frontal
bone to the
supramastoid crest of
the temporal bone.
• The superior temporal
line gives attachment to
the temporal fascia
while the inferior
temporal line provides
attachment for
temporalis.
9. Contents of temporal fossa
• Temporalis muscle
• Zygomaticotemporal
nerves
• Deep temporal nerves
• Deep temporal artery
10. The temporalis muscle
• The temporalis muscle is a large fan-shaped muscle
that fills much of the temporal fossa.
• Origin: from the bony surfaces of the fossa and the
temporal fascia.
• Insertion: on the coronoid process of the mandible
• The more anterior fibers are oriented vertically while
the more posterior fibers are oriented horizontally.
• Action: Temporalis is a powerful elevator of the
mandible and it’s posterior fibers retracts the
mandible.
• Nerve supply: deep temporal branches of the
mandibular nerve
• Blood supply: Deep temporal arteries
14. Muscles of mastication
• The muscle of mastication are the muscles that
move the mandible and act on the
tempromandibular joint
• There are 4 muscles of mastication:
• Temporalis muscle
• Masseter muscle
• Medial ptergoid muscle
• Lateral ptergoid muscle
15. Masseter muscle
• Origin: lower border and
medial surface of
zygomatic arch
• Insertion: lateral surface of
the ramus of the mandible
• Action: elevation of the
mandible
• Nerve supply: nerve to
masseter from the anterior
division of the mandibular
nerve
16. The medial pterygoid muscle
• The medial pterygoid muscle has
deep and superficial heads.
• Origin: The deep head from the
medial surface of the lateral
pterygoid plate.
• The superficial head from the
tuberosity of the maxilla.
• Insertion: Inserted to the
roughened medial surface of the
ramus of mandible near the angle.
• Action: it elevates the mandible,
also it assists in protruding the
lower jaw.
• Nerve supply: by the nerve to
medial pterygoid from the
mandibular nerve
17. The lateral pterygoid
• The lateral pterygoid is a thick triangular
muscle and has two heads: upper and lower
heads
• Origin: The upper head from the
infratemporal surface of the greater wing of
sphenoid
• The lower head from the lateral surface of the
lateral pterygoid plate.
• Insertion: into the pterygoid fovea of the
neck of mandible and to the articular disc of
temporomandibular joint.
• Action: it open the mouth by pully the
mandible forward onto the articular tubercle
and is therefore the major protruder of the
lower jaw.
• Nerve supply: by the nerve to lateral
pterygoid from the mandibular nerve
20. Temporomandibular Joint
• Articulation
• The articular tubercle and the anterior portion of the mandibular fossa of
the temporal bone above
• The head (condyloid process) of the mandible below.
• The articular surfaces are covered with fibrocartilage.
• Type of Joint
• It is synovial. The articular disc divides the joint into upper and lower
cavities.
• Capsule
• The capsule surrounds the joint and is attached above to the articular
tubercle and the margins of the mandibular fossa and below to the neck
of the mandible.
• Synovial Membrane
• This lines the capsule in the upper and lower cavities of the joint.
• Nerve Supply
• Auriculotemporal and masseteric branches of the mandibular nerve
21. • The articular disc
• Divides the joint into upper and lower cavities.
• It is attached circumferentially to the capsule and
to the tendon of the lateral pterygoid muscle .
• The disc moves forward and backward with the
head of the mandible during protraction and
retraction of the mandible.
• The upper surface of the disc is concavoconvex
from before backward and the lower surface is
concave
22.
23. Ligaments
• The lateral temporomandibular ligament
• Its fibers run downward and backward from the
tubercle on the root of the zygoma to the lateral
surface of the neck of the mandible.
• The sphenomandibular ligament
• lies on the medial side of the joint. It is attached
above to the spine of the sphenoid bone and below
to the lingula of the mandibular foramen.
• The stylomandibular ligament
• It is thickened band of deep cervical fascia that
extends from the apex of the styloid process to the
angle of the mandible.
27. Movements
• The mandible can be depressed or elevated,
protruded or retracted. Rotation can also
occur, as in chewing.
• In the position of rest, the teeth of the
upper and lower jaws are slightly apart. On
closure of the jaws, the teeth come into
contact.
28. • Depression of the Mandible
• As the mouth is opened, the head of the mandible
rotates on the undersurface of the articular disc
around a horizontal axis.
• Depression of the mandible is brought about by
contraction of the digastrics, the geniohyoids, and
the mylohyoids and the lateral pterygoids.
• Elevation of the Mandible
• First, the head of the mandible and the disc move
backward, and then the head rotates on the lower
surface of the disc.
• Elevation of the mandible is brought about by
contraction of the temporalis, the masseter, and the
medial pterygoids.
• The head of the mandible is pulled backward by the
posterior fibers of the temporalis.
29.
30. • Protrusion of the Mandible
• The articular disc is pulled forward onto the
anterior tubercle, carrying the head of the
mandible with it.
• All movement thus takes place in the upper
cavity of the joint.
• In protrusion, the lower teeth are drawn
forward over the upper teeth, which is
brought about by contraction of the lateral
pterygoid muscles of both sides, assisted by
both medial pterygoids.
31. • Retraction of the Mandible
• The articular disc and the head of the mandible
are pulled backward into the mandibular fossa.
Retraction is brought about by contraction of the
posterior fibers of the temporalis.
• Lateral Chewing Movements
• These are accomplished by alternately protruding
and retracting the mandible on each side.
• For this to take place, a certain amount of rotation
occurs, and the muscles responsible on both sides
work alternately and not in harmony.
32. • Important Relations of the Temporomandibular
Joint
• Anteriorly: The mandibular notch and the
masseteric nerve and artery.
• Posteriorly: The tympanic plate of the external
auditory meatus and the glenoid process of the
parotid gland
• Laterally: The parotid gland, fascia, and skin
• Medially: The maxillary artery and vein and the
auriculotemporal nerve
