This document discusses different theories of learning, including behavioral and cognitive approaches. It defines learning as a relatively permanent change in behavior due to experience. Behaviorism views learning as changes in observable behavior through classical and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning involves associating a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a new response. Operant conditioning examines how behaviors are strengthened or weakened by consequences. Positive reinforcement increases a behavior while punishment decreases it. Cognitive approaches also examine latent learning and observational learning.

Reproductive system physiology
ChatGPT
The reproductive system is responsible for the production and development of offspring. It includes various organs and structures that differ between males and females. In this response, I will provide an overview of the reproductive system physiology for both males and females.
Male Reproductive System Physiology:
Testes: The testes are the primary male reproductive organs. They produce sperm cells through a process called spermatogenesis and secrete the hormone testosterone.
Epididymis: The epididymis is a coiled tube located on the surface of each testis. It serves as a site for sperm maturation and storage.
Vas Deferens: The vas deferens is a muscular tube that transports mature sperm from the epididymis to the urethra during ejaculation.
Seminal Vesicles, Prostate Gland, and Bulbourethral Glands: These accessory glands produce seminal fluid, which nourishes and protects the sperm. The seminal fluid is combined with sperm to form semen.
Urethra: The urethra is a tube that carries urine from the bladder and also serves as a passage for semen during ejaculation.
Female Reproductive System Physiology:
Ovaries: The ovaries are the primary female reproductive organs. They produce ova (eggs) through a process called oogenesis and secrete hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.
Fallopian Tubes: The fallopian tubes are ducts that connect the ovaries to the uterus. They serve as the site for fertilization, where the sperm meets and fertilizes the egg.
Uterus: The uterus, also known as the womb, is a hollow, muscular organ where a fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus. It undergoes cyclic changes during the menstrual cycle in preparation for pregnancy.
Cervix: The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It contains a small opening called the os, which allows the passage of menstrual blood and sperm.
Vagina: The vagina is a muscular canal that connects the cervix to the external genitalia. It serves as the birth canal during childbirth and also receives the penis during sexual intercourse.
Mammary Glands: While not directly part of the reproductive system, the mammary glands in the breasts produce milk for nourishing newborns after childbirth.
Hormonal Regulation:
The reproductive system is regulated by hormones that coordinate and control its functions. In males, the hypothalamus releases gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which stimulates the pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). LH stimulates the production of testosterone in the testes, while FSH promotes sperm production.
In females, the hypothalamus releases GnRH, which triggers the release of LH and FSH from the pituitary gland. FSH stimulates the development of ovarian follicles and the production of estrogen. LH causes ovulation and the formation of the corpus luteum, which produces pro

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
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Definition of Learning
Learning
– a relatively permanent change in behavior
brought about by experience
– distinguishes between maturation and
experience
– distinguishes between short-term changes
in performance and actual learning
7. How do we learn? Association
We connect events that occur in
sequence… like a dog hearing his
master say “Sit,” his sitting then
receiving a biscuit from the master…
Learning
8. Classical Conditioning
Ivan Pavlov
•1904 Nobel Prize in Medicine
•20 years studying digestive system
•30 years studying learning
Pavlov noticed that dogs would
drool in anticipation
of food.
What were dogs thinking or
feeling? How did they know he was
going to feed them? Did they see,
smell or associate him with food?
Ivan Pavlov
(Richardson, 1999)
10. Classical Conditioning
Classical Conditioning
– a type of learning in which an organism responds
to a neutral stimulus that normally does not bring
about that response; associative learning
– Thunder = Rain = Lightning = get umbrella
– “Sit” = biscuit
Neutral stimulus
– prior to conditioning, has no effect on the desired
response
– Until you experience thunder with rain & lightning,
you don’t think about getting your umbrella
– Until you pair “Sit” with the behavior of sitting and
the reward of biscuit…. “Sit” had no meaning
11. Classical Conditioning
Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS)
– a stimulus that brings about a response
without having been learned (smell of food
causes salivation)
Unconditioned Response (UCR)
– a response that is natural and needs no
training (e.g. salivation at the smell of food)
12. Classical Conditioning
Conditioned Stimulus (CS)
– a once-neutral stimulus that has been
paired with a UCS to bring about a
response formerly caused only by the UCS
(bell rings, dog salivates because he has
paired the bell with food due to condioning)
Conditioned Response (CR)
– a response that, after conditioning, follows
a previously neutral stimulus (salivation
caused by bell ringing)
16. Classical Conditioning
Extinction
– a previously conditioned response
decreases in frequency and eventually
disappears
Spontaneous Recovery
– the reappearance of a previously
extinguished response after time has
elapsed without exposure to the
conditioned stimulus
17. Classical Conditioning
Stimulus Generalization
– conditioned response follows a stimulus
that is similar to the original conditioned
stimulus
Stimulus Discrimination
– organism learns to differentiate among
stimuli
Higher-Order Conditioning
– pairing a previously conditioned stimulus
with a neutral stimulus
18. For example, a baby is uncomfortable
and begins to cry. The mother picks the
baby up to comfort it. The baby learns
to associate crying with being picked up
and will therefore cry whenever it wants
to be picked up even if there is no
discomfort. This is called learning by
stimulus-response (S-R) association. …
19. Dates
An effective way to memorize dates is to
associate them with dates that are already
significant for you such as your birthday, or
a major holiday. This can also be used for
remembering general times such as I have
to get my oil changed around the first day
of summer.
20. Numbers
Memorizing numbers can be made easier if they can be
associated with numerical information you already know.
The following example is an extension of using dates as
described above.
If I need to remember the street address '29' and your
birthday happens to be on the 29th you can associate the
street address with your birthday.
Other numbers that you likely already know include your
phone number, important dates, your street address, or
your PIN number for your bank card.
21. Environmental conditioning adds a
positive or negative consequence to the
learning that stamps it in: You run,
expecting a 100 yards of open field,
when you suddenly smack into a tree
you hadn't noticed. You will be more
careful in the future!
22. For a social animal, much of this
learning comes from others - i.e. it is
social conditioning, also known as
rewards and punishments.
So, instead of learning not to run across
streets by getting run-over, you learn by
getting punished as you begin to run
across the street.
23. Operant Conditioning
Operant Conditioning
– learning in which a voluntary response is
strengthened or weakened, depending on
its positive or negative consequences
Law of Effect
– responses that are satisfying are more
likely to be repeated, and those that are
not satisfying are less likely to be repeated
24. Operant Conditioning
Reinforcement
– the process by which a stimulus increases
the probability that a preceding behavior
will be repeated
Reinforcer
– any stimulus that increases the probability
that a preceding behavior will occur again
26. Operant Conditioning
Primary Reinforcer
– satisfies some biological need and works
naturally, regardless of a person’s prior
experience
Secondary Reinforcer
– a stimulus that becomes reinforcing
because of its association with a primary
reinforcer
27. Positive Reinforcers, Negative
Reinforcers, and Punishment
Positive Reinforcer
– added to the environment that brings about
an increase in a preceding response
Negative Reinforcer
– unpleasant stimulus whose removal leads
to an increase in the probability that a
preceding response will occur again in the
future
28. Positive Reinforcers, Negative
Reinforcers, and Punishment
Negative Reinforcer (cont.)
– Escape conditioning
– Avoidance conditioning
Punishment
– unpleasant or painful stimuli that decrease
the probability that a preceding behavior
will occur again
29. Examples of Reinforcement
Positive when stimuli is added
– getting a promotion or raise for good
performance at work
– increases frequency of good work
Punishment when stimuli is added
– getting a demotion or pay cut for poor work
– getting a spanking for misbehavior
– decreases frequency of poor work or
misbehavior
30. Examples of Reinforcement
Punishment by removing positive stimuli
– removal of television or video games for
getting bad grades
– decrease in frequency of bad grades
Negative reinforcement when stimuli is
added
– getting rid of pain by taking medication
– increase in frequency of taking medication
31. Schedules of Reinforcement
Continuous Reinforcement
– behavior that is reinforced every time it
occurs
Partial Reinforcement
– behavior that is reinforced some but not all
of the time
32. Schedules of Reinforcement
Fixed-Ratio Schedule
– reinforcement is given only after a certain
number of responses are made
Variable-Ratio Schedule
– reinforcement occurs after a varying
number of responses rather than after a
fixed number
33. Schedules of Reinforcement
Fixed-Interval Schedule
– provides reinforcement for a response only
if a fixed time period has elapsed, making
overall rates of response relatively low
Variable-Interval Schedule
– time between reinforcements caries around
some average rather than being fixed
34. Discrimination and Generalization
in Operant Conditioning
Stimulus Control Training
– behavior is reinforced in the presence of a
specific stimulus, but not in its absence
Discriminative Stimulus
– signals the likelihood that reinforcement
will follow a response
35. Shaping: Reinforcing What
Doesn’t Come Naturally
Shaping
– the process of teaching a complex
behavior by rewarding closer and closer
approximations of the desired behavior
Biological constraints
– built-in limitations in the ability of animals to
learn particular behaviors
36. Cognitive-Social Approaches to
Learning
Latent Learning
– learning in which a new behavior is
acquired but is not demonstrated until
reinforcement is provided
Observational Learning
– learning through observing the behavior of
another person (a “model”)
37. Model modeling
Technique emphasized :Modeling is an
instructional strategy in which the
teacher demonstrates a new concept or
approach to learning and students learn
by observing.
38. Model: Shaping
Sara never does her math homework. You would like
to have her complete her homework on a daily
basis. You realize that if you wait for her to complete
her homework before you reinforce her in some way,
you may never (or infrequently) have the opportunity to
administer a positive consequence. Therefore, you
decide to break down the desired behavior into
substeps that are progressively more demanding.
These steps might be:
1. Sara will write his name at the top of the worksheet.
2. Sara will complete one problem of his choice.
3. Sara will complete five problems of his choice.
4. Sara will complete either all the odd numbered
problems or all the even numbered problems.
5. Sara will complete all problems except one.
6. Sara will complete all problems.
39. Positive reinforcement
Jane cleans her room.
Jane's parents praise her.
Jane will continue to clean her room.
40. Positive reinforcement
Sana brushes her teeth after meals.
Sana receives a nickel each time.
Sana will continue to brush her teeth
after meals.
41. Positive reinforcement
Rabia works quietly at her seat.
The teacher praises and rewards Rabia.
Rabia will continue to work quietly at his
seat.
42. Negative reinforcement
Ali complains that older boys
consistently beat him up, and he
refuses to attend school.
Ali’s parents allow him to remain at
home because of his complaints.
Ali will continue to miss school.
It works in the short run but in the long
run is likely to strengthen rather than
weaken the undesirable behavior.
43.
44.
45. Negative reinforcement
Jason complains that older boys
consistently beat him up, and he
refuses to attend school.
Jason's parents allow him to remain at
home because of his complaints.
Jason will continue to miss school.
It works in the short run but in the long
run is likely to strengthen rather than
weaken the undesirable behavior.
46. Negative reinforcement
Bali complains of headaches when it is
time to do homework.
Bali is allowed to go to bed without
doing his homework.
Bali will have headaches whenever
there is homework to do.
47. Extinction
Jim washes his father's car.
Jim's car washing behavior is ignored.
Jim will stop washing his father's car.
48. Extinction
Karim puts glue on Jamil's seat.
Karim is ignored.
Karim will stop putting glue on Jamil's
seat.
49. Punishment
Maria sits on the arm of the chair.
Maria is spanked each time she sits on
the arm of the chair.
Maria will not sit on the arm of the chair.
50. Punishment
Taki puts Mona's pigtails in the paint.
The teacher administers the paddle to
Mona's posterior.
Taki will not put Mona’s pigtail in the
paint.
