Solar street Lights
Most solar panels turn on and turn off automatically by sensing outdoor light using a light source.Solar streetlights are designed to work throughout the night. Many can stay lit for more than one night if the sun is not available for a couple of days. Older models included lamps that were not fluorescent or LED. Solar lights installed in windy regions are generally equipped with flat panels to better cope with the winds.

Scaling Energy Access in Africa: Solving the Battery Issue for Rural Clinics ...Mike Rosenberg
Looking for Reseller Partners in West and East Africa.
Presented at Solar West Africa conference in Accra, Ghana April 20th and the launch of our SolarEnabler - a $2000 (or $1/day) lithium battery system with inverter and charge controller built in that democratises solar power by making it simple and self-installing. Provides enough power for full size fridges, kettles, shirt irons and all the white goods people can now afford (but can't afford to power). Enables dignity.
3G connected so clinics or homes in Africa can leapfrog the west by remotely turning the lights or fans off. Ships in May to 30 homes in Nigeria paying just $30 month on a buy to own basis.
We founded Aleutia in 2006 to design computers from the ground up for use in rural Africa. All of our projects were off grid and in countries like Angola we couldn't find affordable solar installation providers so we became expert at small scale DC solar power systems and designed a Solar Classroom in a Box (2011) which we've since deployed at 366 schools across Ghana, Uganda, Kenya, Zambia and other countries. When we started providing the same for clinics in Oyo, Nigeria we found many sites already had direct solar (battery free) vaccine fridges. But the panels hadn't been connected to any batteries or lights - clinics were still delivering babies with paraffin lanterns. At another site, the compressor had broken after 9 months and there was too much bureaucracy between the aid funder and the clinic to have it fixed - it was an $8000 cupboard.
We realised we needed to provide AC power - a WHO approved vaccine fridge is only $800 (a tenth the price) if AC powered - and take a holistic view, providing power for the entire clinic, not just a fridge or our computers. We set out to kill generators.
Tesla's PowerWall was too heavy (our walls could never bear 100kg) and required an external inverter and professional installation so we set out to make something plug and play.

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.

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

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.

Watts (W) and kilowatts (kW)
measure power, or the rate
at which electrical work is performed.
Watt-hours (Wh) and kilowatt-hours (kWh) measure energy, or
the quantity of electricity used.
Demand is measured in watts, Consumption is measured in
watt hours.
Estimate how many hours a day the device is used in a given
period of time such as one month. Multiply this by kilowatts to
determine kilowatt-hours (kWh).
W/1000 x hours of use = kWh
