Bipolar disorder is a brain disorder that causes shifts in mood and energy levels, ranging from periods of extremely high or happy mood (mania) to periods of very sad or hopeless mood (depression). These mood swings are more extreme than normal happiness or sadness and can impact sleep, thinking, and daily functioning. Symptoms include changes in emotion, sleep, activity, and behaviors. Bipolar disorder affects approximately 5.7 million Americans and often runs in families, though the exact causes are unknown. Treatment involves medication, psychotherapy, and other therapies to help manage mood symptoms.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

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.
2. What is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder
that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to
carry out day-to-day tasks
People with bipolar disorder go through unusual mood changes, ranging from
periods of extremely “up” or happy to periods of “down” or very sad
“Up” refers to a manic episode while “down” refers to a depressive episode
These mood swings are more extreme than just being happy or sad, they can
affect a person’s sleep, energy level, and ability to think clearly
Bipolar symptoms are so strong that they can damage relationships and make
it hard to go to school or keep a job
3. Symptoms
People with bipolar disorder experience periods of unusually intense emotion,
changes in sleep patterns and activity levels, and unusual behaviors
Depressive (“Down”) episode symptoms:
• Feel very sad or hopeless
• Have very little energy
• Have decreased activity levels
• Have trouble sleeping
• Feel worried and empty
• Have trouble concentrating
• Eat too much or too little
• Feel tired or exhausted
Manic (“Up”) episode symptoms:
• Feel very “high” or happy
• Have a lot of energy
• Have increased activity levels
• Have trouble sleeping
• Talk really fast
• Be agitated or irritable
• Do risky things
• Think they can do a lot of things at once
4. Prevalence
Bipolar disorder affects approximately 5.7 million
adult Americans every year (2.6% of U.S. adult
population)
The median age of onset for bipolar disorder is 25
years old, however, the illness can start in early
childhood or even as late as 40-50 years old
More than 2/3 of people with bipolar disorder have
at least one close relative that also has bipolar
disorder
People with bipolar disorder are more likely to
have substance abuse issues, anxiety/ADHD, and
psychosis symptoms
5. Causes
Doctors do not know what causes bipolar disorder, but several things may
contribute to the illness
Bipolar disorder sometimes runs in the family, therefore heredity is linked to
causing the illness
Another factor that may lead to bipolar disorder is the brain structure or
brain function of the person with the disorder
An unexpected stressful event can cause someone to become bipolar
6. Treatment
Medication: mood stabilizers, atypical antipsychotics, and
antidepressants
Psychotherapy: “talk therapy” provides support,
education and guidance to people with bipolar disorder
and their families
Electroconvulsive Therapy: “shock therapy” provides a
quick electric current that can sometimes correct
problems in the brain

sleep patterns, and life events that help clients and
