Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. People of different ages express pain differently, such as babies crying, children pulling away or crying, teenagers changing sleep or eating behaviors, and older adults being reluctant to admit pain. Hospitals assess and reassess patients' pain, ask patients to set pain goals, and work as a team to help patients meet those goals. Unrelieved pain can increase health risks and prevent normal activities. Many patients do not complain about pain due to beliefs that it is expected or will bother staff. You can help patients by believing them, not judging, remembering they know their own pain best, and alerting nurses to possible signs of pain.
Sometimes two people can view the same thing in completely different ways. This presentation will illustrate some of the ways that patients and their providers commonly view the same thing in very different ways by sharing views of patients and doctors in a variety of common scenarios.
People with chronic pain often suffer from depression. In this lesson, you will:

Let's Talk About It: Ovarian Cancer - The Power of Traditionsbkling
The holiday season can be a time marked by family and seasonal traditions. Traditions can be comforting and centering in a way that helps us hold onto a sense of normalcy. But this time can also feel hard when the changes in your health seem more obvious compared to other times.
Join us as we talk together about embracing the holiday season with awareness for all the ways you might experience the weeks ahead.
It is hypothesized; that NAMASMARAN would reorient us; through our individual consciences and consciousnesses; to the cosmic consciousness; common to all; and reveal to us; the most pleasant fact; of the unity of our (otherwise divergent and conflicting) individual consciences and consciousnesses. The more the people involved in this; the faster would be the revelation!
When a person gets sick, there is an underlying imbalance, whether it is physical, spiritual, emotional or mental. When the body is free of stress, it is able to heal itself quickly and naturally.
You will walk out feeling lighter and more clear about your direction. You can choose to focus on physical issues like joint pain, or emotional issues.

What happens when you have a very small target patient population and you want to understand—in depth—their patient journey, the ongoing therapy experience, and triggers and barriers to therapy choice? This challenge of small sample size affects many decisions in the pharmaceutical world, given the emphasis on niche drugs and narrowly defined patient populations.
The patient experience we wished to understand occurs over a period of time, so we recruited respondents for an eight-week online bulletin board. Our session will give insight into the recruiting methods, and examples of how we used a creative combination of qualitative and quantitative tools and exercises to keep the questions fresh, keep respondents engaged, and develop insightful information about their patient journeys.
Patients, Pain & Their Perceptions: Powerful Techniques to Help Patients Mana...Wellbe
Pain management is more than meds. Rather, it is about building a relationship with the patient and together finding the best method of managing pain. At times, healthcare professionals cannot completely remove all pain. However, even patients experiencing some pain (that is tolerable) can still have an excellent patient experience. Choosing the right words is as important as choosing the right medications.
In this content-rich and high-energy event you will learn the following:
• Surefire methods of communicating with patients through the continuum of care (pre-hospitalization, in-patient and post-hospitalization).
• Top tips to improve your bottom line by increasing reimbursement via increasing scores on this common patient satisfaction survey question, "How often was your pain well controlled?"
• How to avoid patients from becoming angry and frustrated regarding their pain management. (Once a patient's situation escalates to a significant level of emotional intensity, it will very difficult to change their perceptions; prevention is the key!)
• Reworking the commonly used "1-10 pain scale" to focus on a more detailed, yet simple to administer method.
• Communicating with patients about the addition of non-pharmaceutical methods of pain management. Both methods can be blended to create super-satisfied patients!
Pain management is more than managing the pain; it is also about managing the perceptions.

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.
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
