Costing is very important for getting an order as well as it focuses the future trends of any industry. To make a effective, profitable and competitive cost sheet one must know about all the processes involves in garments manufacturing very well. All the updated news and costs of fabric, CM of particular garments, trims, wash cost, embroidery cost, traveling cost, terms of payments must be known. Merchandiser is the key person who is responsible for the costing of any item. Now the world is becoming more competitive for garments market and manufacturing as well. So a competitive cost sheet of any item affect the growth of any company.While the industry recorded a remarkable growth in a protected market environment, it faces a series of challenges that have come to the fore in the post-quota situation, notably in many areas.
What is lay planning?
Lay planning is the arrangement process of cutting room ,table space and labor. Perfect fabric spreading and cutting schedules are depends on the table length, type of equipment, spread length, spreading time, cutting time and personnel.
The cutting room manager must maintain the time; properly utilize the equipments, table space, and personnel also.
Why is lay planning important
To get a clear managing process of cutting room.
To reduce production cost
To save the fabric wastage.
To finish the cutting process in schedule time.
To achieve optimal efficiency.
To make the plan easy, computer software can be used.

The fabric is folded in the lengthwise direction. The selvedges of both sides are placed one on top of the other and folded in the middle.
The fabric forms a fold at the centre. All folded patterns are placed along this fold. This fold is also used for different type of frocks, shirts and blouses.
Accessories: Item that enhances the aesthetic appeal or function of a garment including belt, scarves or other objects. In generally these components are sewing less. Type of Accessories
Accessories that are carried (Small pets, toy dog, cats, birds, snakes, taking parrots)
Accessories that are worn,(Necklace, Umbrella, Bag, Parts etc.)
Trims: Materials used to ornament or enhance garments. These components are attach in the garment by sewing. (Button, Zipper, Sewing thread, Lace, tape etc.)
Above definitions are fine when those are used as individual form. What happened when these terms used as “trims and accessories” in garment manufacturing industry?
Trimmings and Accessories Used in Apparel Industry:
In garments manufacturing, fabrics is not the only material to make a garments. Several equipments are used here for both decorative and functional purposes. Where some are called trimmings and others are called accessories. But there’s so many who don’t know actually what is the difference between trimmings and accessories. As its importance, now I will present a table, by which you can easily differentiate between trimmings and accessories.

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.
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.
2. Identification of the stain
Based on Colour clue.
Blue, black or red may be ink-stains.
Reds or pinks may be lipstick, rouge or nail polish.
Based on Appearance
Wax and paint stains build up on the surface of the fabric.
Oil and fats cause transluscent stains.
Medicine stains, food stains, and perfumes may leave specific odour.
Based on Touch.
Stickiness may be due to gum or glue, stiffness may be egg or some
other albuminous stain, paint may give a smooth feel.
In sophisticated laundries stains can be identified by X-ray diffraction
and other methods.

If the label does not say that you cannot do something, you can assume that you can
do it.
For instance, if a care label gives washing instructions but does not warn against dry
cleaning, you should be able to dry clean the garment.
Some retailers have their own care-labeling programme. One consists of a simple
letter code that identifies five basic cleaning methods.
