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.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
3. Physiologic Anatomy -
Arteries• the main coronary arteries lie on the surface of the heart and
smaller arteries then penetrate from the surface into the
cardiac muscle mass
• Only the inner 1/10 millimeter of the endocardial surface
can obtain significant nutrition directly from the blood inside the
cardiac chambers
• The left coronary artery supplies mainly the anterior and left
lateral portions of the left ventricle
• the right coronary artery supplies most of the right ventricle
as well as the posterior part of the left ventricle
4. Physiologic Anatomy -
Veins• Most of the coronary venous blood flow from the left
ventricular muscle returns to the right atrium of the heart by
way of the coronary sinus — which is about 75 per cent of
the total coronary blood flow.
• Most of the coronary venous blood from the right
ventricular muscle returns through small anterior cardiac
veins that flow directly into the right atrium.
• A very small amount of coronary venous blood also flows
back into the heart through very minute thebesian veins,
which empty directly into all chambers of the heart.
5.
6. Coronary Blood Flow
• The resting coronary blood flow in the human
being averages about 225 ml/min - about 4 to 5
% of the total CO.
• During strenuous exercise, the heart in the
young adult increases its CO – 4 to 7 times
• coronary blood flow increases 3 to 4 times to
supply the extra nutrients needed by the
heart
7. Phasic Changes
• the coronary capillary blood flow in the left ventricle muscle
falls to a low value during systole, which is opposite to flow in
vascular beds elsewhere in the body.
• The reason for this is strong compression of the left
ventricular muscle around the intramuscular vessels during
systolic contraction.
• During diastole, the cardiac muscle relaxes and no longer
obstructs blood flow through the left ventricular muscle
capillaries, so that blood flows rapidly during all of diastole.
• Blood flow through the coronary capillaries of the right
ventricle also undergoes phasic changes - only partial
8.
9.
10. • During systole, blood flow through the subendocardial plexus
of the left ventricle, where the intramuscular coronary vessels
are compressed greatly by ventricular muscle contraction, tends
to be reduced
11. Control of Coronary Blood
Flow• Local Muscle Metabolism Is the Primary Controller of Coronary
Flow
• local arteriolar vasodilation in response to cardiac muscle
need for nutrition
• Oxygen Demand as a Major Factor in Local Coronary Blood
Flow Regulation
• about 70 % of the oxygen in the coronary arterial blood is
removed as the blood flows through the heart muscle.
• Because not much oxygen is left, very little additional oxygen
can be supplied to the heart musculature unless the coronary
blood flow ↑
12. Control of Coronary Blood
Flow• decrease in the oxygen concentration in the heart -
release of vasodilator substances from the muscle cells
- dilatation the arterioles
• In the presence of very low concentrations of
oxygen in the muscle cells - a large proportion of the
cell’s ATP → AMP → adenosine (potent vasodilator)
• Adenosine phosphate compounds,
• K ions, H ions, bradykinin,
• PGs, NO, CO2
13. Control of Coronary Blood
Flow• Nervous Control
• Stimulation of the autonomic nerves to the heart can affect
coronary blood flow both directly and indirectly.
• The direct effects result from action of the nervous transmitter
substances acetylcholine from the vagus nerves and
norepinephrine and epinephrine from the sympathetic nerves on
the coronary vessels themselves.
• The indirect effects result from secondary changes in coronary
blood flow caused by increased or decreased activity of the
heart.
14. Direct Nervous Control
• The distribution of parasympathetic (vagal) nerve
fibers to the ventricular coronary system is not very
great.
• the acetylcholine released by parasympathetic
stimulation has a direct effect to dilate the coronary
arteries.
• There is much more extensive sympathetic innervation
of the coronary vessels
• The constrictor receptors are called alpha receptors –
epicardial
• the dilator receptors are called beta receptors -
intramuscular
15. Indirect Nervous Control
• Sympathetic stimulation, which releases NE, E, increases both
heart rate and heart contractility as well as increases the rate of
metabolism of the heart.
• the increased metabolism of the heart sets off local blood flow
regulatory mechanisms for dilating the coronary vessels, and
the blood flow increases approximately in proportion to the
metabolic needs of the heart muscle.
• vagal stimulation, with its release of acetylcholine, slows the
heart and has a slight depressive effect on heart contractility.
• These effects in turn decrease cardiac oxygen consumption
and, therefore, indirectly constrict the coronary arteries.
16. Control of Coronary Blood
Flow• Sympathetic stimulation cause coronary constriction or
dilation, but usually constriction.
• In some people, the alpha vasoconstrictor effects severe -
vasospastic myocardial ischemia during periods of excess
sympathetic drive - anginal pain.
• Metabolic factors - especially myocardial O2 consumption -
are the major controllers of myocardial blood flow.
• Whenever the direct effects of nervous stimulation alter the
coronary blood flow in the wrong direction, the metabolic
control of coronary flow usually overrides the direct coronary
nervous effects within seconds.
17. Ischemic Heart Disease
• Atherosclerosis as a Cause of Ischemic Heart Disease
• The most frequent cause of diminished coronary blood flow
• people who eat excessive quantities of cholesterol and have a
sedentary lifestyle - large quantities of cholesterol gradually
become deposited beneath the endothelium at many points in
arteries throughout the body.
• Gradually, these areas of deposit are invaded by fibrous tissue
and frequently become calcified - development of
atherosclerotic plaques - protrude into the vessel lumens and
either block or partially block blood flow.
• A common site for development of atherosclerotic plaques is the
first few centimeters of the major coronary arteries.
18. Acute Coronary
Occlusion• The atherosclerotic plaque can cause a local blood clot called a
thrombus, which in turn occludes the artery - coming in direct
contact with the flowing blood.
• Because the plaque presents an unsmooth surface, blood
platelets adhere to it, fibrin is deposited, and RBCs become
entrapped to form a blood clot that grows until it occludes the
vessel.
• The clot breaks away from its attachment and flows to a more
peripheral branch of the coronary arterial tree
• A thrombus that flows along the artery in this way and occludes
the vessel more distally is called a coronary embolus.
19. Acute Coronary
Occlusion• local muscular spasm of a coronary artery also can
occur.
• The spasm might result from direct irritation of the
smooth muscle of the arterial wall by the edges of an
arteriosclerotic plaque, or
• it might result from local nervous reflexes that cause
excess coronary vascular wall contraction.
• The spasm may then lead to secondary thrombosis of
the vessel.
21. Myocardial Infarction
• Immediately after an acute coronary occlusion, blood flow
stops in the coronary vessels beyond the occlusion except for
small amounts of collateral flow from surrounding vessels.
• The area of muscle that has either zero flow or so little flow that
it cannot sustain cardiac muscle function is said to be infarcted.
• The overall process is called a myocardial infarction.
• Soon after the onset of the infarction, small amounts of
collateral blood begin to leak into the infarcted area +
progressive dilation of local blood vessels, causes the area to
become overfilled with stagnant blood
22. Myocardial Infarction
• Simultaneously the muscle fibers use the last leftovers of
the oxygen in the blood, causing the hemoglobin to become
totally de-oxygenated - bluish-brown shade, and the blood
vessels of the area appear to be engorged despite lack of
blood flow.
• In later stages, the vessel walls become highly permeable
and leak fluid - local muscle tissue becomes edematous,
and the cardiac muscle cells begin to swell because of
diminished cellular metabolism.
• Within a few hours of almost no blood supply - the cardiac
muscle cells die
23. Myocardial Infarction
• The subendocardial muscle frequently becomes infarcted
• The subendocardial muscle has extra difficulty obtaining
adequate blood flow because the blood vessels in the sub
endocardium are intensely compressed by systolic
contraction of the heart
• Any condition that compromises blood flow to any area of
the heart usually causes damage first in the
subendocardial regions, and the damage then spreads
outward toward the epicardium.
24. • During systole, blood flow through the subendocardial plexus
of the left ventricle, where the intramuscular coronary vessels
are compressed greatly by ventricular muscle contraction, tends
to be reduced
26. Systolic Stretch – Cardiac Shock
• When the heart becomes incapable of contracting with
sufficient force to pump enough blood into the peripheral
arterial tree - cardiac failure and death of peripheral tissues
ensue as a result of peripheral ischemia.
• This condition is called coronary shock, cardiogenic shock,
cardiac shock, or low cardiac output failure.
• Cardiac shock occurs when more than 40 % of the left ventricle
is infarcted.
• death occurs in 85 % of patients once they develop cardiac
shock.
27. Causes of Death
• (2) obstructing of blood in the pulmonary
blood vessels and then death resulting
from pulmonary edema;
28. Fibrillation of the
Ventricles• 1. Acute loss of blood supply to the cardiac muscle causes
rapid depletion of K from the ischemic musculature
• ↑ K concentration in the ECF - ↑ irritability of the cardiac
musculature
• 2. Ischemic musculature often cannot completely
repolarize its membranes after a heart beat
• electric current flows from this ischemic area of the heart to
the normal area - abnormal impulses that can cause
fibrillation
29. Fibrillation of the
Ventricles
• 3. Powerful sympathetic reflexes - ↑ irritability of the cardiac
muscle
• 4. Cardiac muscle weakness caused by MI often causes the
ventricle to dilate excessively.
• This ↑ the pathway length for impulse conduction in the heart
• and frequently causes abnormal conduction pathways all the way
around the infarcted area of the cardiac muscle - “circus
movement”
30. Causes of Death
• (4) rupture of the heart.
• Systolic stretch – rupture – cardiac
tamponade
• patient dies of suddenly decreased
cardiac output.
32. Pain in CHD
• Ischemia causes the muscle to release acidic
substances, such as lactic acid, or other pain-
promoting products,
• such as histamine, kinins, or cellular proteolytic
enzymes, that are not removed rapidly enough by the
slowly moving coronary blood flow.
• The high concentrations of these abnormal products
then stimulate pain nerve endings in the cardiac
muscle, sending pain impulses through sensory afferent
nerve fibers into CNS
33. Angina Pectoris
• In most people who develop progressive constriction of
their coronary arteries, cardiac pain, called angina
pectoris, begins to appear whenever the load on the heart
becomes too great
• This pain is usually felt beneath the upper sternum over
the heart - often referred to the left arm and left shoulder,
to the neck, the side of the face.
• The heart originates during embryonic life in the neck,
as do the arms. Therefore, both the heart and these surface
areas of the body receive pain nerve fibers from the same
spinal cord segments.
34. Angina Pectoris
• Most people who have chronic angina pectoris feel pain
when they exercise or when they experience emotions
that increase metabolism of the heart or temporarily
constrict the coronary vessels because of sympathetic
vasoconstrictor nerve signals.
• The pain usually lasts for only a few minutes. some
patients have such severe and lasting ischemia that the
pain is present all the time.
• hot, pressing, and constricting; - usually makes the patient
stop all unnecessary body activity and come to a complete
state of rest.
35. Angina Pectoris - Rx
• Several vasodilator drugs, when administered during an
acute anginal attack, can often give immediate relief from
the pain - nitroglycerin and other nitrate drugs.
• Chronic - beta blockers – propranolol - block sympathetic
beta adrenergic receptors - prevents sympathetic
enhancement of heart rate and cardiac metabolism during
exercise or emotional episodes.
• Therapy with a beta blocker decreases the need of the
heart for extra metabolic oxygen during stressful
conditions – also reduce the number of anginal attacks as
well as their severity.
36. Surgical Treatment of CHD
• Aortic-Coronary Bypass Surgery - 1960
• removing a section of a subcutaneous vein from an arm or leg and
then grafting this vein from the root of the aorta to the side
of a peripheral coronary artery beyond the blockage point.
• One to five such grafts are usually performed, each of which
supplies a peripheral coronary artery beyond a block.
• Anginal pain is relieved in most patients - may provide the
patient with normal survival expectation
• if the heart has already been severely damaged - the bypass
procedure is of little value.
37.
38. Surgical Treatment of CHD
• Coronary Angioplasty – 1980
• A small balloon-tipped catheter is passed under
radiographic guidance into the coronary system and pushed
through the partially occluded artery until the balloon portion
of the catheter connects the partially occluded point.
• Then the balloon is inflated with high pressure, which
markedly stretches the diseased artery - blood flow through
the vessel often increases threefold to fourfold,
• Patients are relieved of the coronary ischemic symptoms
for at several years - many of the patients eventually require
coronary bypass surgery
39.
40. Surgical Treatment of CHD
• Still newer procedures
• a laser beam from the tip of a coronary artery catheter
aimed at the atherosclerotic lesion.
• The laser dissolves the lesion without damaging the
rest of the arterial wall.
• a minute metal “stent”
placed inside a coronary artery
dilated by angioplasty to hold
the artery open, thus preventing
its restenosis.
