The lungs are made up of bronchi that branch into smaller bronchioles and terminate in alveoli where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged. When the bronchi become inflamed or infected, it causes bronchitis which makes breathing difficult. Asthma is a chronic lung condition where the airways become inflamed, swollen and constricted due to triggers like allergens, irritants, weather changes and infections. Common symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing and chest tightness. Asthma is diagnosed through breathing tests and treated with inhalers and other medications to reduce inflammation and relax the airways.

Asthma is a disease that affects your lungs. It is the most common long-term disease of children, but adults have asthma, too. Asthma causes repeated episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and nighttime or early morning coughing.
Emphysema is a type of COPD involving damage to the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. As a result, your body does not get the oxygen it needs. Emphysema makes it hard to catch your breath. You may also have a chronic cough and have trouble breathing during exercise. The most common cause is cigarette smoking
Bronchitis is swelling of the bronchial tubes (bronchi), the air passages between the nasal area and the respiratory system. More particularly, bronchitis is when the lining of the bronchial tubes gets inflamed or contaminated.

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.

Asthma
1. Before identifying the disease
Let's remember the anatomy and physiological of the lung
The lung
Anatomy:
The lungs are connected to the trachea by the right and left bronchi
Bronchi are the main passageway into the lungs. When someone takes a breath
through their nose or mouth, the air travels into the larynx. The next step is through
the trachea, which carries the air to the left and right bronchus. The bronchi become
smaller the closer they get to the lung tissue and are then considered bronchioles.
These passageways then evolve into tiny air sacs called alveoli, which is the site of
oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the respiratory system.
Disease if occurring
When the bronchi become swollen due to irritants or
infection, bronchitis results and makes breathing more difficult.
Bronchitis sufferers also tend to have much more mucus and phlegm than
someone without inflamed bronchi.
Normal value of (MRV) minute respiratory volume: {6L/Min}
➔ Reach to alveoli about 350 ml in each respiratory rate and other is called dead
space.
2. Introduction
Asthma
Definition:
asthma have a chronic lung condition that causes their airways to become smaller or
narrower, due to:
- underlying inflammation or swelling.
- increased mucus production.
- contraction of muscles around the airways, or bronchospasm.
This swelling (inflammation) causes the airways to make thick, sticky secretions
called mucus. Asthma also causes the muscles in and around your airways to get very
tight or constrict. This swelling, mucus, and tight muscles can make your airways
narrower than normal and it becomes very hard for you to get air into and out of your
lungs.
The most common symptoms of asthma
➔ shortness of breath
➔ hear wheezing (a whistling or squeaking sound) as air
tries to move through your narrowed airways.
➔ Chest pain, chest pressure
➔ chest tightness
➔ cough → most often at night or early in the morning
You may have days when you have every symptom and other days you may have no
symptoms.
3. Result:
For some students, symptoms may go away in 20 or 30 minutes after they stop
exercising and takes their prescribed medicine. For others, the symptoms may last for
several hours. Students with more severe symptoms may require further treatment
of their asthma attack in an emergency department.
Asthma
can be inherited or passed down to you from your parents through their genes.
you may have no history of asthma in your family.
If you have asthma, your airways are more sensitive than normal. Your airways can
get irritated and tighten very easily by a variety of things called “triggers.”
Examples of “triggers” are:
1- Allergies: If you have allergies, you may also be more likely to have asthma.
➔ This type of asthma often begins in children, but can happen in adults as well.
common allergens (things that cause allergies) are
➔ pollen from weeds, trees, and grass, mold, cockroach droppings,
➔ dander from cats or dogs and dust mites.
➔ These can cause sneezing, wheezing, itchy eyes and a runny nose. If the lungs
are irritated enough, the allergens can cause an asthma attack.
2- irritants: (Respiratory irritant)
➔ environmental tobacco smoke, air pollution, chemicals and strong smells.
Environmental tobacco smoke or second hand smoke – which increase the
number of asthma episodes and the severity of symptoms in an estimated 200,000 to
1 million children annually.
Air pollution → a potent mix of ground level ozone, sulfur dioxide, particulate
matter and nitrogen oxide
4. Chemicals or strong smells → paint/cleaning solutions, chalk dust, lawn and turf
treatments, gasoline fumes
Additional Triggers
➔ Weather changes
➔ Upper respiratory infections
➔ Cold air
➔ Strong emotions
➔ Exercise
Asthma cannot be diagnosed without a breathing test
if you think you may have asthma, tell your health care provider (HCP) about all of
your symptoms. If your HCP thinks your symptoms may be from asthma
1- breathing test called a pulmonary function test or spirometry test
principle:
the most basic test is spirometry. This test measures the amount of air the lungs can
hold. The test also measures how forcefully one can empty air from the lungs.
Spirometry is used to screen for diseases that affect lung volumes. It also is used to
screen for diseases that affect the airways, such as COPD or asthma.
2- additional tests: Blood tests for allergies or for detecting problems with
your immune system may also be ordered.
3- Testing may also be done to test if your symptoms are caused by another
disease such as vocal cord dysfunction
If your asthma is not getting better after you start treatment,
5. Medications will be prescribed that keep your airways open and reduce swelling, so
air can move in and out of your lungs more easily.
1- given an inhaler
i.
2- pill
3- Short-acting (relief or rescue) bronchodilators By relax the muscles around
your airways.
1. albuterol
2. levalbuterol
4- Long-acting medicines (controllers) include
a. inhaled corticosteroids
1. Beclomethasone
2. budesonide
b. inhaled corticosteroids in combination with long-acting
1. bronchodilators (e.g. formoterol or salmeterol).
