This document discusses different types of diseases including infectious, deficiency, genetic, and physiological diseases. It provides definitions and examples of each category. Infectious diseases are caused by pathogens like viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protists. Deficiency diseases result from a lack of nutrients in the diet. Genetic diseases are passed down from parents to children through genes. Physiological diseases occur when parts of the body malfunction. The document also discusses how diseases can be treated and prevented.

A disease is a condition that impairs the proper function of the body or of one of its parts. Every living thing, both plants and animals, can succumb to disease. Hundreds of different diseases exist.
Each has its own particular set of symptoms and signs, clues that enable a physician to diagnose the problem.
Every disease has a cause, although the accuses of some remain to be discovered. Every disease also displays a cycle of onset, or beginning, course, or time span of affection, and end, when it disappears or it partially disables or kills its victim.

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.
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
2. DEFINITIONS
• Health: This is a state in which the mind and body is functioning properly
• Disease: This is any condition that prevents the body from being healthy
• There are 4 categories of diseases:
• Infectious
• Deficiency
• Genetic
• Physiological
3. CONCEPT ATTAINMENT
• Use the Jamboard link to categorize some diseases
• https://jamboard.google.com/d/138xeLwo0u1fNSPD-
cQEhU30xsdn_I2E8OlV075a0mcs/edit?usp=sharing
• Can you state how people get these diseases?
• What are some common symptoms these diseases share?
4. INFECTIOUS DISEASES
• These are caused when a pathogen (microorganism) enters the body and causes
harm
• Types of pathogens include:
• Viruses (HIV, Coronavirus)
• Bacteria (Tetanus, Cholera)
• Fungi (Ringworm, Athlete’s foot)
• Protists (Malaria, Dysentery)
9. DEFICIENCY DISEASES
• Caused by a lack of certain food groups in the diet
• Typically cured by consuming the deficient nutrient, however they can cause
permanent damage if not treated
• These diseases are more common in developing countries where access to a
balanced diet is not easy to acquire
10. DEFICIENCY DISEASES
Disease Symptoms Deficient Nutrient Food that contain
nutrient
Marasmus Weight loss, tiredness Carbohydrates Flour, Provisions, rice
Kwashiorkor Swollen stomach, stunted
growth
Proteins Legumes, meat, eggs,
dairy
Scurvy Bleeding gums, joint pains Vitamin C Fruits (especially citrus)
Rickets Brittle bones, stunted
growth
Vitamin D, Calcium Dairy, Green leafy
vegetables
Anaemia Tiredness, pale skin Iron Red meat, green leafy
vegetables
11. QUESTION
• 1. Developing countries have issues with deficiency diseases. Suggest why and
recommend how they can tackle this.
• 2.Doctors sometimes recommend antibiotics to patients who had the flu for a
long period of time. Explain why. What are some concerns about this practice?
12. HEREDITARY (GENETIC) DISEASES
• These are diseases that are passed on from parent to child through their genes
• These diseases can be caused by recessive genes or mutations
• These diseases will cause some part(s) of the body to malfunction
13. HEREDITARY (GENETIC) DISEASES
Disease Symptoms Level
Cystic Fibrosis Constant mucus build up in
lungs, Tiredness
Single gene
Sickle cell Anaemia Tiredness, pale skin Single gene
Haemophilia Problems with blood clotting Single gene
Diabetes (type 1) Cannot control blood glucose
levels
Multifactorial
Obesity Excess body fat Multifactorial
Down Syndrome Learning disability,
dysmorphia
Chromosomal
Turner syndrome Issues with sexual
development
Chromosomal
14. PHYSIOLOGICAL DISEASES
• These are caused when a part of the body malfunctions
• There are several possible causes of physiological diseases
• Cancerous – Cells division occurs too fast and tumors develop, eg, cancer
• Degenerative – Tissues and organs do not work as well as we get older, eg, Arthritis,
Arrythmia, cataracts
• Metabolic – Organs stop working due to defect, eg, diabetes,
• Psychological – Imbalances of chemicals in the brain, eg, bipolar disorder,
schizophrenia
15. TREATMENT AND CONTROL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES
• The causes and spread of infectious diseases can be controlled by focusing on the
interactions between the host (humans), the pathogen and the environment
• Many of the diseases themselves can be treated with medicines and it is possible
to be vaccinated or immunized against some diseases
• Disease causing pathogens can be destroyed by using substances that kill them.
These substances include antibiotics, disinfectants and antiseptics and sterilization
techniques, such as heating or boiling
16. TREATMENT AND CONTROL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES
• Measures that affect the environment:
• improved standards of living, hygiene and the treatment of sewage
• eradication of insects, such as mosquitoes and houseflies
• provision of safe, clean drinking water
• food inspections, such as the inspection of meat at abattoirs
• better preparation and storage of food (pasteurisation and cold storage)
• laws which require notification of certain diseases, such as rabies and leprosy; this allows for
quick treatment and quarantine (isolation of infected individuals)
• improved public health programmes, including vaccination programmes and education
programmes.
17. TREATMENT AND CONTROL OF NON-INFECTIOUS DISEASES
• Diet:
• The amount of sugar and fat you eat affects your risk of developing physiological
diseases, such as heart disease, hypertension and diabetes. If people eat too
much sugar and fat, they tend to gain weight. Overweight people have a higher
risk of these diseases
• Too much of the wrong sort of fatty food increases the levels of cholesterol in the
blood. Eating food containing a lot of saturated fat seems to raise the levels of
cholesterol in the blood
• Too much salt in the diet can raise blood pressure.
20. MOSQUITO LIFE CYCLE
• Eggs: Adult, female mosquitoes lay their eggs on the inner, wet walls of containers
with water, above the waterline. Mosquitoes generally lay 100 eggs at a time.
• Larva: Larvae emerge from mosquito eggs, but only after the water level rises to
cover the eggs. Larvae feed on microorganisms in the water.
• Pupa: Pupae will develop until the body of the newly formed adult flying mosquito
emerges from the pupal skin and leaves the water.
• Adult: After adult mosquitoes emerge, male mosquitoes feed on nectar from
flowers and female mosquitoes feed on humans and animals for blood to produce
eggs
21. MOSQUITOS AS A VECTOR
• A vector refers to something that can transmit a disease from one person to
another without being affected by the disease
• Mosquitoes cause more human suffering than any other organism -- over one
million people worldwide die from mosquito-borne diseases every year.
• Mosquitos are usually found in hot regions around the world (South America,
Caribbean, Africa)
22. MOSQUITO BORNE DISEASES
