Latitude and longitude are coordinates that define locations on Earth. They are measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds, where degrees indicate lines on a map or globe, minutes are 1/60 of a degree, and seconds are 1/60 of a minute. Scale refers to the ratio of distances on a map compared to actual distances on Earth, such as 1 centimeter on a map representing 1 kilometer on the ground. It allows distances on maps to be measured and is constant throughout a given map or blueprint. Professions like mapmaking, engineering, and advertising use scale in their work.
By the end of the lesson students should be able to:
-measure straight line distances on a map and covert them into ‘real world’ distance
-measure curved distances (roads & rivers) and convert them into ‘real world’ distance

Introduction Topograpbic maps illustrate scale, width, length, and height of landforms. Geologic
maps show the distribution of different rock units and geologic features, such as faults, at the
surface of the Earth. In this lab you will become familiar with both types of maps which are
important tools for anyone studying the earth or its resources. Learning Outcomes - Explain how
contours are used to show elevation information and landforms on a map. (questions 13) -
Understand and explain different types of map scale, such as fractional scale and bar scale.
(questions 4-5) - Explain how latitude and longitude are used to describe location. (questions 6-8)
- Draw and use contours to visualize spatial data (such as spot elevations). (question 9) - Find the
latitude and longitude of a location on a map. (questions 10, 17, 18) - Read elevation data and
interpret contours on a topographic map.(questions 11, 12, 19) - Calculate elevation change and
gradient (slope) from topographic maps.(questions 13, 21) - Read distances on a map using a
ruler and bar scale.(questions 14-16; 20) - Interpret ages of rock units on a geologic map
(questions 22-23) - Identify geologic structures on a geologic map (questions 24-27) - Draw a
geologic cross section using locations of contacts and angles of dip on a geologic map (questions
28-30) - Identify types of folds or faults on a geologic cross section (questions 28-30) Map
Coordinate Systems A coordinate system allows us to describe the location of any point on the
surface of the Earth. Lines of latitude (also known as parallels) are the horizontal lines that circle
the globe. These lines are known as parallels because the run in the same direction as (are
parallel to) the Equator. The Equator is the imaginary line located at 0 latitude and is halfway
between the North Pole and the South Pole, which are 180 apart. This means the South Pole is 90
S and the North Pole is 90N. Lines that run from the North Pole to the South Pole are lines of
longitude (also known as meridians). The line at 0 longitude is the prime meridian and runs
through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England. Meridians are counted east and west from
the prime meridian up to a maximum of 180 longitude at the.

A coordinate system is a reference system used to represent the locations of geographic features, imagery, and observations, within a common geographic framework.
Coordinate systems enable geographic datasets to use common locations for integration.
Model Attribute Check Company Auto PropertyCeline George
In Odoo, the multi-company feature allows you to manage multiple companies within a single Odoo database instance. Each company can have its own configurations while still sharing common resources such as products, customers, and suppliers.
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.
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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
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
