Genetic engineering allows scientists to modify human DNA to potentially screen for genetic disorders, prevent birth defects, and select simple traits. The first genetically engineered food, a tomato, was commercially sold in 1994. However, using genetic engineering to alter human traits raises ethical concerns about playing God and could increase genetic inequality.

Seminar on designer babies
Designer babies refer to genetically engineered babies whose genetic makeup has been artificially selected to ensure particular genes or characteristics. The document discusses the science and methods behind designer babies, including preimplantation genetic diagnosis which screens embryos for genetic disorders prior to implantation. While this could help reduce genetic diseases and infertility issues, there are also safety, ethical, and social concerns such as damage to the gene pool, embryos being terminated, and it leading to a gap between socioeconomic classes who can afford the procedures. The technology is still developing so safety is a high concern.
Circulation powerpoint
There are two main types of circulatory systems - open and closed. In an open system, found in invertebrates like mollusks and arthropods, blood is pumped into body cavities and diffuses between cells. A closed system, present in vertebrates and some invertebrates, keeps blood enclosed in vessels at all times. Hearts vary in structure from simple contractile blood vessels in insects to four-chambered organs in mammals. Crayfish have a single-chambered heart that pumps hemolymph through arteries, while human hearts have four chambers separating oxygenated and deoxygenated blood flow.
Group 1.science. breathing system
The document describes the parts of the respiratory system and their functions:
1) It begins with the nostrils and nasal cavity, which warm and moisten inhaled air, before the trachea transports air into the two primary bronchi and bronchioles.
2) The bronchioles terminate in alveoli, which are tiny air sacs where gas exchange occurs.
3) A "bunch of grapes" model effectively represents the branching pathway that oxygen travels through the respiratory system until reaching the alveoli.
Breathing system exposition
The document provides information about the human breathing system. It describes how air enters through the mouth or nostrils and passes through the nasal cavity where it is warmed and moistened. The air then travels down the pharynx and into the trachea, which divides into bronchi and branches into smaller bronchioles that lead to tiny air sacs called alveoli in the lungs. Oxygen passes into the bloodstream in the alveoli while carbon dioxide moves out, and the process repeats with each breath.
Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table
This document provides an overview of the history and development of atomic theory, including key discoveries and models. It describes early ideas from Democritus and Aristotle, foundations laid by laws of conservation of mass, definite proportions, and multiple proportions. Developments include Dalton's atomic theory, discovery of the electron, proton, neutron, isotopes, and the nuclear model of the atom. The periodic table is introduced along with atomic number, mass number, and calculating average atomic mass.
Chapter 1 Atomic Structure
This document provides an overview of chemical interactions and the periodic table. It discusses the basic structure of atoms including protons, neutrons and electrons. It then describes how elements are organized on the periodic table based on atomic number and properties. Various regions of the table are examined including metals, nonmetals and noble gases. Radioactivity and radioactive decay are also summarized.
Gr I- 1. Intro to Science
Science is the knowledge we get from study, experiment and observation. We use science to make our lives easier through inventions like light, pencil, car, medicine, and computers which have been created by scientists and inventors through the scientific process. Science and the work of scientists through history have led to many important inventions that have improved people's lives.
Periodic table and atomic structure
The periodic table classifies elements based on their properties and arranges them in order of increasing atomic number. Elements in the same column have similar properties due to their shared valence electrons. Properties like atomic size and ionization energy trend periodically across periods and down groups due to changing electron configurations. Elements attain stability by losing, gaining or sharing electrons to achieve noble gas configurations.

Atomic structure & bonding
1. The document discusses atomic structure and bonding. It describes the structure of atoms in terms of electrons and the nucleus containing protons and neutrons. It also discusses the arrangement of electrons in shells and the significance of noble gas structures and valency electrons.
2. The document then covers the periodic table and periodic trends. It defines properties such as atomic number, mass number, and isotopes. It explains how the periodic table is arranged based on these properties and how elements in the same group have similar properties.
3. The types of bonding are described including ionic bonding between metals and non-metals which forms ionic lattices, and covalent bonding between non-metals which forms molecules by sharing electron
Blood & Circulation
The circulatory system consists of three main parts: blood vessels, heart, and blood. The blood vessels include arteries, capillaries and veins that transport blood throughout the body. The heart has four chambers and pumps blood through the body in a continuous cycle. It circulates oxygenated blood from the lungs through the arteries and returns deoxygenated blood to the lungs through veins. The blood carries oxygen, nutrients, waste and defenses through this cardiovascular network.
Circulatory System
The circulatory system carries blood and substances throughout the body using the heart and blood vessels. The heart pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs and oxygenated blood to the rest of the body through arteries. Blood flows through veins back to the heart. It is composed of plasma, red blood cells that carry oxygen, white blood cells that fight disease, and platelets that help blood to clot.
Circulatory System
The circulatory system transports materials around the body using the heart and blood vessels. It has a double circulation where oxygenated blood from the lungs enters the left side of the heart and is pumped to the body, and deoxygenated blood returns to the right side of the heart to be pumped to the lungs. The heart is composed of four chambers - left and right atria and ventricles - with valves that prevent backflow of blood and ensure one-way circulation.
What is Science?
The document defines science as using observations and experiments to describe and explain the world around us. It discusses how the scientific method involves making observations, developing ideas to explain them, thinking of experiments to test those ideas, predicting the results, and modifying ideas based on what is observed. The document provides examples of different types of scientists such as astronomers, biochemists, botanists, and explains that a scientist conducts experiments to learn. It notes that studies not based on the scientific method, like some advertising claims, are considered pseudoscience rather than real science. Finally, it states that students can also be scientists.
PowerPoint for Teachers
The document provides tips for designing effective PowerPoint presentations with engaging content and positive delivery. It recommends using simple, visually appealing designs with limited text on slides. Content should be interactive, incorporating media like videos and diagrams to explain complex topics. Presenters should interact with the audience through games and questions to maintain engagement.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
