Action potentials are short term changes in electrical potential across cell membranes in response to stimulation that allow electrical signals to propagate. They involve the movement of ions across the membrane through open channels. The cardiac action potential occurs in five phases: 1) rapid depolarization due to sodium influx; 2) early repolarization from sodium inactivation and potassium activation; 3) plateau from calcium influx; 4) rapid repolarization from potassium efflux; and 5) resting potential set by potassium equilibrium potential. Pacemaker cells additionally exhibit phase 4 diastolic depolarization driven by funny channel opening that leads to spontaneous firing.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
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.

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. DEFINATION
• Short term change in the electrical potential on the surface of a cell in response to stimulation and then
leads to transmission of electrical impulse that travels across the cell membrane.
3. TERMS EXPLAINED
• RESTING MEMBRANE POTENTIAL : It is the relative static membrane potential of quiescent cells .
• THRESHOLD POTENTIAL : it is the critical level to which the membrane potential must be depolarized to
initiate action potential .
4. WHAT MAKES IONS TO MOVE ACROSS?
• Nernst equation
• EK =RT/ZF ln [K]2 / [K]1
• Where,
• T is temperature [370 C]
• R is the gas constant
• F is the Faraday constant
• Z is the valence of ion [1]
• [K]2 and [K]1 are the final concentrations of potassium in compartments 2 and 1,
• respectively. [150mmol, 5 mmol]
• EK is the equilibrium potential for potassium [-90mV]
• At equilibrium potential net diffusion is 0
• All ions try to reach equilibrium i.e., tries to drive the membrane potential towards its equilibrium potential
• At RMP, membrane is permeable mostly to potassium , hence RMP is close to the EK
5.
6. CARDIAC ACTION POTENTIAL PHASES
• FIVE PHASES :
one phase of depolarization
three phases of repolarization
one phase of resting membrane potential
diastolic depolarization
7. • Phase 0: the upstroke or rapid depolarization
• Phase 1: early rapid repolarization
• Phase 2: plateau phase
• Phase 3: final rapid repolarization
• Phase 4: resting membrane potential and diastolic depolarization
8.
9. PHASE 0: THE UPSTROKE OR RAPID DEPOLARIZATION
• Increased inward sodium currents (INa)
• The rate at which depolarization occurs during
phase 0 (Vmax) is reasonable approximation of the
rate and magnitude of Na entry into the cell and
when the equilibrium potential for Na (ENa 60mV)
is reached, Na no longer enters the cell.
• The membrane conductance of Na during phase 0
is hypothetically regulated by two types of gates—
m and h
10. • Three ‘m’ (activation) gates on the extracellular side
• One ‘h’ (inactivation) gate on the intracellular side of the
membrane, which modulate Na passage through the
sodium channels
• When the membrane is in a resting polarized state, the
‘m’ gates are almost completely closed and ‘h’ gate is
open and hence, no Na can enter the cell
• Depolarization of the membrane opens the ‘m’ gates and
closes the ‘h’ gate, ‘m’ gates opening faster than the ‘h’
gate closing i.e. activation of the Na channels proceeds
faster than inactivation can occur and Na flows through
for about 1–2 msec when both gates are simultaneously
open
11.
12. PHASE 1: EARLY RAPID REPOLARIZATION
• It is partly owing to the inactivation of inward
current ( I Na) and the activation of a transient
outward current (Ito) carried through K channels.
• Phase 1 is well defined in Purkinje fibers and some
muscle fibers but is indistinct and not separated in
SA and AV nodes.
13. PHASE 2: PLATEAU PHASE
• The membrane voltage remains zero for more
than 100 ms
• Plateau phase is due to:
Fall of K conductance
Slow inward current (I Si) through
Ca channels
Small inward Cl (I Cl) flux through Cl
channel.
14. PHASE 3: FINAL RAPID REPOLARIZATION
• Final phase of rapid repolarization is due to:
Time dependent inactivation of slow inward
currents ISi and ICl so that intracellular movement
of positive charges decreases
Activation of outward K current (I k)
• The net membrane current becomes more outward and
the membrane potential shifts in a negative direction
15. PHASE 4: (A) THE RESTING MEMBRANE POTENTIAL
• It is - 50 to - 95 mV depending on the cell type
• The resting negative membrane potential is mainly
due to inward K current (IKi )
• During diastole, the cell membrane is quite
permeable to K and relatively impermeable to Na
and the sodium pump (Na, K ATPase) pumps three
Na out of the cell and two K into the cell which
results in high intracellular K (150 mM) and low
intracellular Na (15 mM)
16. • The Ca2 contributes little to the resting membrane
potential although changes in the Ca2
concentration can affect the permeability of the
cell membrane to other ions.
• An increase in Ca2 increases the K conductance.
Besides under normal conditions, one internal Ca2
is exchanged for three external Na by the Na/Ca2
exchanger.
17. PHASE 4: (B) DIASTOLIC DEPOLARIZATION
• The membrane potential of the atrial and ventricular
muscle cells remains steady throughout the diastole
• In SA node, distal portion of AV node, muscles of mitral and
tricuspid valves and Purkinje fibers the resting membrane
potential does not remain constant in diastole but
gradually depolarizes and when it reaches the threshold
potential, it produces spontaneous action potential.
• This property possessed by the spontaneously discharging
cells is known as phase 4 diastolic depolarization and
automaticity results when it leads to the initiation of action
potential
18. IONIC BASIS OF ACTION POTENTIAL OF PACEMAKER CELLS
• Phase 4: Pacemaker Potential:
• Opening of voltage-gated Sodium channels called Funny channels (If or f
channels ).
• Closure of voltage-gated Potassium channels.
• Opening of Voltage-gated Transient-type Calcium (T-type Ca2+ channels)
channels .
• Phase 0: The Rising Phase or Depolarization:
• Opening of Long-lasting voltage-gated Calcium channels (L-type Ca2+
channels).
• Large influx of Calcium.
• Phase 3: The Falling Phase or Repolarization:
• Opening of voltage-gated Potassium channels
• Closing of L-type Ca channels.
• Potassium Efflux.
