The cerebral cortex is a thin sheet of neural tissue that surrounds the cerebrum. It plays a key role in functions like memory, awareness, language, and consciousness. It is divided into two hemispheres and four lobes. It has six layers and is made up of grey matter on the inside and white matter on the outside. The cortex contains several functional areas including sensory, motor, and associated areas. The sensory areas process somatosensation, vision, hearing, smell, and taste. The motor areas control voluntary movement. The associated areas integrate information for functions like cognition and language.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. INTRODUCTION:
-It is a sheet of neural tissue that
surrounds the cerebrum of the
mammalian brain.
-It is completely made of grey matter
underlying white matter which consists
of axons communicating to and from
cortex.
-It has an area of 2.2 sqm in human
beings & about 2-4 mm thick.
-In large mammals, cerebral cortex is
usually folded, providing a greater
surface area without increasing the
size of brain.
-the ridge is termed as gyrus and the
groove is termed as sulcus.
3. -The cerebral cortex plays a key role in memory, attention, awareness,
thoughts, language and consciousness.
-It is divided into two cerebral hemispheres :left and right hemisphere.
-cerebral hemisphere, a part of brain controls muscle functions and
also controls speech, thoughts, emotions, writing, learning etc.
-the right side hemisphere controls muscles of left side of body & left
side hemisphere controls muscles of right side of body.
-It is subdivided into four lobes:
frontal lobe (motor control, thinking & reasoning)
parietal lobe (process sensory information)
temporal lobe (language, speech production, memory, emotion)
occipital lobe (main center for visual processing)
4. GREY MATTER:
-It is a major component of CNS, consisting neuronal cell bodies,
dendrites, unmylenated axons, oligodendrocytes & capillaries.
-It is the area from where the nerve impulse originates.
WHITE MATTER:
-It consists of largely nerve fibres.
-It’s main function is to transmit nerve impulses.
GYRI AND SULCUS:
-They are also known as hills and valleys of brain.
-The ridge is the gyrus while an depression is called sulcus.
5. -Gyrus & Sulcus serves two very imp
functions.
• They allow more neurons to be packed
into cortex and increases brain’s ability to
process information.
• they also form brain divisions by creating
boundaries between lobes of brain &
divides them into 2 hemispheres.
LAYERS OF CEREBRAL CORTEX:
-It is formed by six layers of structures from
outside (pial surface) to inside (white
matter).
1. molecular or plexiform layer.
2.external granular layer.
3.outer pyramidal layer.
4.internal granular layer.
5.ganglionic layer or internal pyramidal
layer.
6.fusiform cell layer.
6. 1.LAYER1:
-it contains few scattered neurons, axons and dendrites.
2.LAYER2:
-contains densely packed stellate cells, few small pyramidal cells.
3.LAYER3:
-Loosely packed stellate cells, inter-mediate sized pyramidal cells.
-this layer is the principle source of corticocortical efferents.
4.LAYER4:
-contains different types of stellate and pyramidal neurons.
-it is the main target of thalamocortical afferents from thalamus.
7. 5.LAYER5:
-contains large pyramidal neurons, gives rise to axons leaving cortex
and running down to subcortical str.(such as basal ganglia).
6.LAYER6:
-few large pyramidal neurons.
-this layer sends efferent fibres to thalamus
FUNCTIONAL/CORTICAL AREAS OF CEREBRAL CORTEX:-
There are three functional areas of cerebral cortex:
1.sensory areas.
2.motor areas.
3.associated areas.
8. 1. SENSORY AREAS:
-primary somatosensory cortex.
-somatosensory association cortex.
-visual & auditory areas
-others: olfactory, gustatory cortices.
1. primary somatosensory cortex:-
-It is located in post central gyrus,
found in parietal lobe.
-It consists of brodsmann’s area 3a,3b,
1&2.
-It is responsible for processing somatic
sensations.These sensations arises
from receptors throughout the body
responsible for detecting touch,
proprioception (perception of presence
of diff body parts), nociception (pain),&
temperature.
9. 2. somatosensory association cortex:-
-located posterior to primary somatosensory cortex.
-it integrates sensory information coming from primary somatosensory
cortex to produce an size, texture & relation of stimulus.
-it is associated with area 5 &7 .
10. 3.visual(striate)cortex:-
The visual cortex of the brain is a part of the cerebral cortex that
processes visual information.
-located on posterior tip of occipital lobe.
-receives visual information from retina.
-primary visual cortex V1 surrounds and extends into a deep sulcus
called the calcarine sulcus (deep sulcus that starts in the temporal
lobe and continues into the occipital lobe).
-It is associated with area 17.
-visual associated cortex (extra striate) surround primary visual
cortex & responsible for other visual tasks (color, form & movement).
11.
12. • visual pathway has two streams:
-ventral stream(action-what, for identification):-
associated with object recognition & form
representation.
-dorsal (action-where or how to):- deals with object
location & its motion.
13. Auditory cortex:-
-The primary auditory cortex, located in between the two
others, is mainly composed of two areas named the
Brodmann areas 41,42.
- It is located in the temporal lobe, right above the ears.
- The function of the primary auditory cortex is to process
sound. It processes such information as pitch, volume and
the location of a sound.
14. -The auditory association area (42,22) is a part of the brain
that is found in Wernicke's area.
- It is responsible for processing acoustic (sound) signals that
the brain interprets as sounds, speech or music.
- Wernicke's area is part of the cerebral cortex, along with
Broca's area, from where the capacity for speech and written
language originate.
OTHERS SENSORY ASSOCIATED AREAS :-
Olfactory cortex:
15. -the primary olfactory cortex is a portion of the cerebral
cortex involved in olfaction(smelling).
