This document discusses human rights for the mentally ill. It outlines several key rights that psychiatric patients currently have, such as the right to communicate with people outside of the hospital, wear personal clothing and effects, practice religion freely, and refuse unnecessary medical treatment. It also describes some rights in more detail, like the right to privacy, informed consent, treatment, and being treated in the least restrictive setting. The role of nurses is to ensure patients' human and legal rights are upheld in all healthcare settings.
Beliefs about mental illness have been characterized by superstition, ignorance and fear. Although time and advances in scientific understanding of mental illness have dispelled many false ideas, there remain a number of popular misconceptions.

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

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.

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.

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.

10. CONT...
Some of these rights deserve a more thorough discussion :-
🞭 Right to Communicate With People Outside the Hospital :
This right allows patient to visit and hold telephone conversations
in privacy and send unopened letters to anyone of their choice,
including judges, lawyers, families, and staff. Although the patient
has the right to communicate in anuncensored manner, the staff
may limit access to the telephone or visitors when it could harm
the patient or be a source of harassment for the staff. The
hospital also can limit the times when telephone calls are made
and received and when visitors can enter the facility.
11. CONT...
🞭 Right to Keep Personal Effects:-
The patient may bring clothing and personal items to the
hospital, taking into consideration the amount of storage
space available. The hospital is not responsible for their
safety, and valuable items should be left at home. If the
patient brings something of value to the hospital, the staff
should place it in the hospital safe or otherwise provide for
maintaining a safe environment and should take dangerous
objects away from the patient if necessary.
12. CONT...
🞭 Right To Enter Into Contractual Relationships:-
The court considers contracts valid if the person understands the
circumstances of the contract and its consequences. Once again, a
psychiatric illness does not invalidate a contract, although the nature
of the contract and degree of judgement needed to understand it are
influencing factors.
13. CONT...
🞭 Right to education:-
Many patient exercise the right to education on behalf of their
emotionally ill or mentally retarded children. The U.S. Constitution
guarantees this right to everyone, although many states have not
provided adequate education to all citizens in the past and are now
required to do so.
14. CONT...
🞭 Right to Habeas Corpus:-
Habeas corpus is an important constitutional right patients retain in all
states even if they have been involuntarily hospitalized. It provides for
the speedy release of any person who claims to be detained illegally.
A committed patient may file a writ at any time on the grounds of
being sane and eligible for release. The hearing takes place in court,
where those who wish to restrain the patient must defend their
actions. Patients are discharged if they are judged to be sane.
15. CONT...
🞭 Right to privacy :-
The right to privacy implies the person’s right to keep some personal
information completely secret or confidential. Confidentiality involves
the nondisclosure of specific information about a person to someone
else unless authorized by that person. Every psychiatric professional
is responsible is responsible for protecting a patient’s right to
confidentiality, including even the knowledge that a person is in
treatment or in a hospital. Revealing such information might result in
damage to the patient. The protection of the law applies to all
patients.
16. CONT...
🞭 Right to informed consent:-
The goal of informed consent is to help patients make better
decisions. Informed consent means that a clinician must give the
patient a certain amount of information about the proposed treatment
and must attain the patient’s consent, which must be informed
,competent and voluntary.
Information to be Disclose in Obtaining Informed Consent
Diagnosis : Description of the patient’s problem
Treatment: Nature and purpose of the proposed treatment
17. CONT...
Consequences: Risks and benefits of the proposed treatment
including physical and psychological effects, costs, and potential
resulting problems
Alternatives: Viable alternatives to the proposed treatment and their
risks and benefits
Prognosis : Expected outcomes with treatment, with alternative
treatments, and without treatment.
18. 🞭 Right to treatment :-
Early court cases extended the right to treatment to all mentally
ill and mentally retarded people who were involuntarily
hospitalized.
The courts defined three criteria for adequate treatment :
1. A humane psychological and the physical environment
2. A qualified staff with a sufficient number of members to
administer adequate treatment
3. Individualized treatment plans
19. • 🞭 RIGHT TO REFUSE TREATMENT :-
•THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN RIGHT TO TREATMENT
AND RIGHT TO REFUSE TREATMENT IS COMPLEX.
•THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TREATMENT INCLUDES THE
RIGHT TO REFUSE INVOLUNTARY HOSPITALIZATION.
IT HAS BEEN CALLED THE RIGHT TO LEFT ALONE .
•THE INVOLUNTARY THERAPY CONFLICTS WITH TWO
BASIC LEGAL RIGHTS: FREEDOM OF THOUGHT AND
THE RIGHT TO CONTROL ONE’S LIFE AND ACTIONS
AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE
RIGHTS OF OTHERS.
20. 🞭 Right to Treatment in the Least Restrictive Setting :-
The right to treatment in the least restrictive setting is closely
related to the right to adequate treatment.
Its goal is evaluating the needs of each patient and maintaining
the greatest amount of personal freedom, autonomy, dignity, and
integrity in determining treatment.
This right applies to both hospital-based and community programs.
Another consideration in the least restrictive alternative is that it
applies not only to when a person should be hospitalized but also
to how a person is cared for.
It requires that a patient’s progress be carefully monitored so that
treatment plans are changed based on the patient’s current
condition.
21. LEGALASPECTS:-
Legal aspects of mentally ill :
Civil commitment
Competence and informed consent to treatment
Confidentiality and the coordination of care
Right to treatment in the Hospital and community
