The common misconceptions of bipolar disorder debunked!
Intro- We have information at the ready in today's world. We associate bipolar disorder with abrupt bad moods which is incorrect.
The Myth- We have built this stereotype of bipolar disorder due to assumptions and being uniformed. I hope this slide show clears that message up.
What is bipolar? Most people don't know there are 2 types of bipolar disorder: Bipolar I and Bipolar II. One more severe than the other. Basic characteristics of Bipolar disorder include the following:
~Can a person with bipolar disorder live normally? YES!
Most have jobs, family, relationships
~Bipolar just means moody. NO!
More than just a random mood swing. Very High or Very Low
~Most bipolar episodes happen fast. False!
Usually last days, weeks or months
~People with bipolar disorder are always happy or sad, never in the middle. False!
A balanced state called euthymia can occur and last for weeks.

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. Introduction
Today it seems that people are quick to label or diagnose someone with bipolar
disorder. In a world where information is readily available in the palm of one’s hand,
there seems to still be a large misunderstanding of what being bipolar really is. No all
the blame can be placed on the (mis)information that is out there for us to consume.
There are some cultural aspects that may need to be considered while investigating
these stereotypes and myths of bipolar disorder.
3. The Myth
“His in one of his moods again. . . he’s probably bipolar.” We have all described
someone’s bad mood in this way before. Perhaps your significant other snapped at you
for some reason, you jokingly attributed this to them being “bipolar.” Comments like
this is what perpetuates the stereotype and continues the spread of misunderstanding
associated with this disorder. The next few slides will help clear up some of the stigmas
attached to bipolar disorder, and hopefully give you a better understanding of what the
disorder truly is.
4. What is Bipolar Disorder?
Person may exhibit:
● Difficulty carrying out daily tasks
● Unusual mood swings
● Varying degrees of energy
● Very high peaks and very low valleys of
mood
There are actually 2 types of bipolar disorder
that a person can be diagnosed with:
Bipolar I- Periods of severe mania and
depression
Bipolar II- Less severe hypomanic episodes,
but can still have severe periods of depression.
5. Can a person with Bipolar Disorder live a
“normal” life?
6. YES!
Many people diagnosed with bipolar disorder lead fulfilling lives. They have a
career, families, and maintain interpersonal relationships.
8. NO!
Many of us without bipolar disorder attribute bad moods to being bipolar. We all
have our ups and downs, but people with this disorder can experience extremely
high peaks and equally low valleys of depression.
10. False!
Mood changes in someone with bipolar disorder can experience an episode of
mania, or deep depression that can last anywhere from a few days to a few
months.
12. False!
Just like the high peaks and low valleys a bipolar person can experience, there
is also a state of balanced mood called euthymia that can last several weeks.
