Electronic waste, or e-waste, refers to discarded computers, electronics, and appliances. Rapidly changing technology and planned obsolescence have led to a fast growing surplus of e-waste globally. E-waste contains toxic and hazardous materials, and improper disposal pollutes the environment and poses health risks to humans. While technical solutions for recycling exist, many countries lack proper infrastructure and regulations to deal with the large volumes of e-waste being produced.
A Comprehensive Study On E Waste Management: Present Situation And Future Imp...Mosfiqur Rahman
Now-a-days, Electronic waste (e-waste) is one of fastest growing pollution problem for
environment and as well as threaten human body due to its presence in variety of toxic
substances as its disposal system are not properly managed. In Bangladesh, a large number of
electronic waste are generated but its subsequent handling, reuse, recycling and disposal are not
properly handled and can cause significant environmental and health hazards. At present, there is
lack of awareness about the hazards of electronic waste in Bangladesh. The electronic waste may
reuse, broken down into parts or disposed of completely. The present informal practice of
recycling is not carried out safely and it becomes a danger to human health and the surrounding
environment. This paper will share the management system of electronic disposal items and
trend of usage of electronic equipments. It will also share what hazards have been created from
this electronic waste, what are the present dumping practices and what rules are there in place for
dumping. It will also identify the level of awareness regarding e-waste and to determine a way to
reduce environmental hazards.
E-waste is a popular, informal name for electronic products nearing the end of their "useful life“.The rate of e-waste generation is increasing by 10% every year .So we have to take care of this problem very sincerely, and try to produce less electronic waste and always think about the reusability of things.

Excessive Increment in E-Waste System and its Prohibition through Green Compu...Editor IJCATR
In the current scenario, the information and communication technology have made drastic changes in our daily routine like
industries, institution and almost in each field. In today’s world there is a large amount of usage of electronic equipments which are
giving rise to many problems. The energy consumption from such devices also leading to various global warming issues. At the
same time they are leading to many problems like problems of massive amount 0of hazardous waste and other wastes which are
generated from electronic equipment
Therefore here we will discuss about various consequences of e-waste , their effects and management of these toxic ad dangerous wastes
so as to make the process energy efficient and environment friendly
This is my first research paper publication at international journal of advance researches. tittled "Environment and Health Issues Associated with E-wastage"
Green Buildings Overview and Analysis of Energy Efficient Buildingpaperpublications3
Abstract: The challenges our planet faces, particularly climate change and sustainable economic development, are global in nature and so require global solutions. The building sector, which consumes as much as 40% of world’s energy, 12% of its water and contributes 40% of its waste sent to landfill, is the major part of this global problem. Reducing energy use in buildings saves resources and money while reducing pollution and CO2 in the atmosphere. It also leverages even greater savings at power plants. For the average 33-percent-efficient coal-fired power plant, saving a unit of electricity in a building saves three units of fuel at the power plant. So to reduce green house gas emission, government promotes new buildings construction and to retrofit existing buildings while satisfying low energy criteria. This means improving energy efficiency of buildings and energy systems, developing sustainable building concepts and promoting renewable energy sources. “Green” or “sustainable” buildings use key resources like energy, water, materials, and land more efficiently than buildings that are just built to code. With more natural light and better air quality, green buildings typically contribute to improved employee and student health, comfort, and productivity. A green building depletes the natural resources to the minimum during its construction and operation. In this paper an over view of green building is discussed.
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.

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.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
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.

E Wastes
1.
2. “Electronic waste” may be defined as discarded
computers, office electronic equipment, entertainment
device electronics, mobile phones, television sets and
refrigerators. This definition includes used electronics which
are destined for reuse, resale, salvage, recycling, or disposal.
Others define the re-usable (working and repairable
electronics) and secondary scrap (copper, steel, plastic, etc.)
to be "commodities", and reserve the term "waste" for
residue or material which is dumped by the buyer rather
than recycled, including residue from reuse and recycling
operations. Because loads of surplus electronics are
frequently commingled (good, recyclable, and non-
recyclable), several public policy advocates apply the term
"e-waste" broadly to all surplus electronics. Cathode ray
tubes (CRT) are considered one of the hardest types to
recycle.
3.
4. Rapid changes in technology,
changes in media (tapes, software,
MP3), falling prices, and planned
obsolescence have resulted in a
fast-growing surplus of electronic
waste around the globe. Dave
Kruch, CEO of Cash For Laptops,
regards electronic waste as a
"rapidly expanding" issue.[5]
Technical solutions are available,
but in most cases a legal
framework, a collection system,
logistics, and other services need to
be implemented before a technical
solution can be applied.
5. In addition to its damaging effect on the
environment and its illegal smuggling into
developing countries, researchers have now
linked e-waste to adverse effects on human
health, such as inflammation and oxidative
stress – precursors to cardiovascular disease,
DNA damage and possibly cancer.
8. One theory is that increased regulation of electronic waste
and concern over the environmental harm in mature
economies creates an economic disincentive to remove
residues prior to export. Critics of trade in used electronics
maintain that it is still too easy for brokers calling
themselves recyclers to export unscreened electronic waste
to developing countries, such as China,[13] India and parts of
Africa, thus avoiding the expense of removing items like bad
cathode ray tubes (the processing of which is expensive and
difficult). The developing countries have become toxic dump
yards of e-waste. Proponents of international trade point to
the success of fair trade programs in other industries, where
cooperation has led to creation of sustainable jobs, and can
bring affordable technology in countries where repair and
reuse rates are higher
9. The processes of dismantling and disposing of electronic waste in the
third world lead to a number of environmental impacts as illustrated in
the graphic. Liquid and atmospheric releases end up in bodies of
water, groundwater, soil and air and therefore in land and sea animals –
both domesticated and wild, in crops eaten by both animals and
human, and in drinking water.[35]
One study of environmental effects in Guiya, China found the following:
Airborne dioxins – one type found at 100 times levels previously
measured
Levels of carcinogens in duck ponds and rice paddies exceeded
international standards for agricultural areas and
cadmium, copper, nickel, and lead levels in rice paddies were above
international standards
Heavy metals found in road dust – lead over 300 times that of a control
village’s road dust and copper over 100 times
10.
11. Today the electronic waste recycling business is in all areas of the
developed world a large and rapidly consolidating business. Part
of this evolution has involved greater diversion of electronic waste
from energy-intensive down cycling processes (e.g., conventional
recycling), where equipment is reverted to a raw material form.
This is recycling is done by sorting, dismantling, and recovery of
valuable materials [40] This diversion is achieved through reuse
and refurbishing. The environmental and social benefits of reuse
include diminished demand for new products and virgin raw
materials (with their own environmental issues); larger quantities
of pure water and electricity for associated manufacturing; less
packaging per unit; availability of technology to wider swaths of
society due to greater affordability of products; and diminished
use of landfills.
12. There are several!
Conserves natural resources. Recycling recovers valuable materials from old
electronics that can be used to make new products. As a result, we save
energy, reduce pollution, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and save resources by
extracting fewer raw materials from the earth.
Protects your surroundings. Safe recycling of outdated electronics promotes
sound management of toxic chemicals such as lead and mercury.
Helps others. Donating your used electronics benefits your community by passing
on ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it.
Create Jobs. eCycling creates jobs for professional recyclers and refurbishers and
creates new markets for the valuable components that are dismantled.
Saves landfill space. E-waste is a growing waste stream. By recycling these
items, landfill space is conserved.
13. Take good care of your electronic items so they
last as long as possible. Before purchasing a new
computer system, for example, check into
upgrading individual components. You may find
that all you need is one or two components
replaced
Consider the purchase of refurbished products
when possible. Refurbished products usually
carry the same manufacturer's warranty as new
items. Working consumer electronics may be
donated to a charity or thrift store so that they
can be reused by others.
14.
15. Buy from companies that offer take-back
programs
Choose products with less toxicity, greater
recycled content, and higher efficiency
Use Rechargeable Batteries
