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.

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.
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”.

5. What do you think is the job of our
nervous system?
Enables humans to react to their surroundings and to
coordinate their behaviour.
Q-Can you give examples of
how humans may respond
to their surroundings?
Hint look at the picture.
A- Put on clothes when it is cold.
6. How is the nervous system is adapted to
carry out its function?
Information needs to be sent quickly and so your nervous system is
adapted to send information as electrical impulses via neurons.
Sensory neurons
Motor neurons
1) Use your textbook or the internet to label your
sensory and motor neuron.
2) State how they are different in their job and structure
Relay neurons
8. 1) Electrical impulse travels down the axon.
2) When the electrical impulse reaches the axon terminal, neurotransmitters (chemicals involved in passing
nerve impulses from one neuron to the next) are released.
3) Neurotransmitters diffuse across the gap between neurons called a synapse where they bind to receptors
on the second neuron.
4) The receptor molecules on the second neuron can only bind to the specific neurotransmitters released from
the first neuron.
5) Once the neurotransmitters bind to the second neuron this triggers an electrical impulse in the second
Neuron.
Electrical impulse
Electrical impulse
Synapse
First neuron Second neuron
9. 6) Enzymes in the synaptic cleft quickly destroy
the neurotransmitter or the neurotransmitters are
taken up by re-uptake channels on the first
neuron. So its action are short lived.

Attaches to receptors on the relay neuron triggering
an electrical signal.
17. In addition to the nervous
system, we have a second
control system known as
the endocrine system, which
helps coordinate changes in our
body.
This system is made up
of glands/organs which
secrete chemical messengers
called hormones that carry out
their effects.
18. Hormone Transport
Hormones travel in the blood to
their target organ to produce
their effects.
Target organ contains receptors
on their cell membrane, where
the hormones bind to.
Note- Steroid hormones don’t work by binding to
membrane receptors.
19. Features of the endocrine system
• Slow acting
• Uses chemical messengers
called hormones
• Effects of the endocrine
system are long lasting
• Hormones travel in the blood
Q) Produce a table to compare the endocrine
system to the nervous system.
20. • Slow acting
• Uses chemical messengers called
hormones
• Effects of the endocrine system are
long lasting
• Hormones travel in the blood
• Fast acting
• Uses electrical signals/impulses
• Effects of the nervous system are
short lasting
• Electrical signals/impulses travel
via neurons
Endocrine system Nervous system

Effects: Stops FSH being produced (so that only
one egg matures in a cycle). Repairs, thickens and
maintains the uterus lining. Stimulates the pituitary
gland to release LH.
26. Oestrogen
Source: Ovaries
Role: Female reproductive
hormone.
Effects: Development of
the female secondary
sexual characteristic and
has a role ovulation.
Hips get wider
Breasts develop
Ovaries start to
release egg
cells -

27. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
Source: Pituitary gland
Role: Controlling the water content of the blood.
Effect: Increases reabsorption of water by the
collecting ducts.
28. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
Source: Pituitary gland
Role: Menstrual cycle
Effects: Causes an egg to mature in an ovary.
Stimulates the ovaries to release oestrogen.
29. Luteinising hormone (LH)
Source: Pituitary gland
Role: Menstrual cycle
Effect: Triggers ovulation (the release of a mature
egg).

38. Cornea – refracts light, bending it
as it enters the eye.
Iris - controls the amount of light
that enters the eye.
Lens - focuses light onto the retina.
Retina – contain light receptors
which detect light.
Optic nerve - carries impulses from
the eye to the brain.
Sclera - tough and strong so the eye
ball is not damaged.
39. Journey of light
Light will pass through the eyeball
on its journey to the retina.
The cornea and the lens help bend
light so that it can be brought into
focus onto the retina.
This part of your eye is known as the blind spot, you don’t
know it’s there because your brain fills the gap. It’s called the
blind spot as there are no light receptors.
40. Activity 1 – Finding your blind
spot
1. To find your blind spot, take a piece of paper and
draw a small X on the right side.
2. Now, take your ruler and measure about 10 cm to
the left of the X.
3. Draw a dot there about the size of a penny.
4. Hold the paper in front of you and close your right
eye. Look at the X. Even though you're looking at
the X you should be able to see the dot out of the
corner of your eye.
5. Slowly move the paper in front of you. Try moving
it left and right or closer and farther away.
Remember to keep looking at the X. At a certain
point, the dot will seem to disappear out of the
corner of your eye.
43. The pupil reflex
This reflex controls the amount of light entering the
eye; this is controlled by the radial and circular muscles
of the eye.

44. Temperature regulation
Skin surface
When your body temperature is above the normal range, this is detected by the thermoregulatory
centre in the brain. As a result, blood flow is increased in the capillaries close to the surface of the
skin, causing them to become wider due to the increased pressure. This is known as vasodilation;
heat can escape the blood through the skin by radiation. Temperature receptors in the skin can
also send impulses to the thermoregulatory centre in the brain, giving information about skin
temperature.
Heat escaping
by radiation.
Capillaries
45. Temperature regulation
Skin surface
When your body temperature is below the normal range, this is detected by the
thermoregulatory centre in the brain. As a result, blood flow is decreased in the capillaries
close to the surface of the skin, causing them to become narrow due to the decreased
pressure. This is known as vasoconstriction; heat escaping the blood through the skin by
radiation is reduced.
Capillaries
46. Temperature regulation
When you are hot, your
sweat glands in the skin
release more sweat. The
sweat absorbs heat energy
so when the sweat
evaporates, heat is lost
from the skin thus cooling
you down.
47. Temperature regulation
Skin hair
When you are cold, your skin
hairs can stand on end. This
action traps a layer of air above
the skin which helps
to insulate the skin against heat
loss.
When you are hot, your skin
hairs lay flat thus allowing
more heat to be lost through
radiation.
