Genetics is the study of genes, heredity, and genetic variation. Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants in the 1800s and established the principles of inheritance, including dominance, segregation, and independent assortment. His work showed that traits are passed from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes. Monohybrid and dihybrid crosses examine the inheritance of one or two traits and can be represented using Punnett squares. Mendel's principles form the basis of modern genetics.

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.

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.
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

2. • Introduction to Genetics and heredity
• Gregor Mendel – a brief sketch
• Genetic terminology
• Monohybrid crosses
• Patterns of inheritance
• Dihybrid crosses
• Test cross
3. Introduction to Genetics
• GENETICS – A branch of biology concerned
with the study of genes, genetic variation, and
heredity in organisms
• CHROMOSOMES- Carry the hereditary
information (genes)
• GENES- Specific arrangement
of nucleotides in DNA
4. Gregor Johann Mendel
• Austrian Monk, born in 1822
• Son of peasant farmer, was
ordained
priest Order St. Augustine.
• Went to the university of Vienna,
where he
studied botany and learned the
Scientific Method
• Worked with pure lines of peas for
eight years
5. • In 1866 he published Experiments in Plant
Hybridization, (Versuche über Pflanzen-
Hybriden) in which he established his three
Principles of Inheritance.
• His work came to limelight after
34 years, around 1900, when
3 independent botanists
rediscovered Mendel’s work.
7. GENETICS TERMS
• Gene – Unit of heredity; a section of DNA,
specific nucleotide sequence, encoding a single
protein
• Genome –The entire set of genes in an
organism
• Alleles –Alternative forms of a gene/ two genes
that occupy the same position on homologous
chromosomes and that cover the same trait (like
T and t for height).
• Locus – A fixed location on a strand of DNA
where a gene or one of its alleles is located.
8.
9. • Chromosomes (and genes) occur in pairs
Homologous Chromosomes
• New combinations of genes occur in sexual
reproduction, after fertilization of sperm and
ovum(from two parents).
10. • Homozygous – Having identical genes (one
from each parent) for a particular characteristic.
• Heterozygous – Having two different genes for
a particular characteristic.
11. • Dominant – The allele of a gene that masks or
suppresses the expression of an alternate allele; the trait
appears in the heterozygous condition.
• Recessive – The allele that is masked by a dominant
allele; does not appear in the heterozygous condition,
only in homozygous.
12. • Genotype – The genetic constitution or makeup of an
organism
• Phenotype – The physical appearance or observable
characters
of an organism (Genotype + environment)
13. • Monohybrid cross: A genetic cross involving
a single pair of genes (one trait); parents differ
by a single trait.
• P = Parental generation
• F1 = First filial generation; offspring from a
genetic cross.
• F2 = Second filial generation of a genetic cross
15. Monohybrid cross
• Parents differ by a single trait.
• Crossing two pea plants that differ in stem size,
one tall one short
T = allele for Tall
t = allele for dwarf
TT = homozygous tall plant
t t = homozygous dwarf plant
T T t t
16. Punnett square
• A useful tool to do genetic crosses
• For a monohybrid cross, you need a square divided into
four parts ( 2gametes on each side---2x2=4)
• Why Punnet square ?
1. determine the genotypes of the progeny .
• Steps---
• Write down the gametes from
two parents on two sides
and draw a p-square
18. Punnett square
Write down the gametes from both parents on sides outside
the p-square
Determine the possible genotypes of the offspring by
filling in the p-square
Summarize results (genotypes & phenotypes of offspring)
T t T t
T t T t
T T
t
t
Genotypes:
100% T t
Phenotypes:
100% Tall plants
T T t t
19. Monohybrid cross: F2 generation
• If you let the F1 generation self-fertilize, the next
monohybrid cross would be:
T t T t
(tall) (tall)
T T T t
T t t t
T t
T
t
Genotypes:
1 TT= Tall
2 Tt = Tall
1 tt = dwarf
Genotypic ratio= 1:2:1
Phenotype:
3 Tall
1 dwarf
Phenotypic ratio= 3:1
20. Secret of the Punnett Square
• Key to the Punnett Square:
• Determine the gametes of each parent…
• How? By “splitting” the genotypes of each parent:
If this is your cross T T t t
T T t t
The gametes are:
21. If you have another cross…
• A heterozygous with a homozygous
T t t t
T

t
T t
t t
Genotypes:
50% T t
50 % t t
Phenotypes:
50% Tall plants
50% Dwarf plants
You can
still use the
shortcut!
23. Mendel’s Laws
• 1. Law of Dominance:
One allele masked another, one allele was
dominant over the other in the F1 generation.
• 2. Law of Segregation:
When gametes are formed, the pairs of
hereditary factors (genes) become separated,
so that each sex cell (egg/sperm) receives
only one kind of gene.
26. Dihybrid cross Another example
• Matings that involve parents that differ in
two genes (two independent traits)
For example, flower color:
P = purple (dominant)
p = white (recessive)
27. Dihybrid cross: flower color and
stem length (shortcut)
TT PP tt pp
(tall, purple) (short, white)
Possible Gametes for parents
F1 Generation: All tall, purple flowers (Tt Pp)
T t P p
T P t p

28. Dihybrid cross: flower color and
stem length

31. Law of Independent Assortment
• 3. Law of Independent Assortment:
“Members of one gene pair segregate
independently from other gene pairs during
gamete formation”
32. Mutation
Sudden change in genetic makeup or DNA
sequence.
Mutations can result from DNA copying
mistakes made during cell division, exposure to
ionizing radiation, exposure to chemicals called
mutagens, or infection by viruses.
Cystic fibrosis, Sickle cell anemia
33. Several X-linked (or sex-linked) recessive genetic
disorders, (hemophilia, color blindness) which are
inherited through a genetic defect/recessive gene on an X
chromosome
Red-green color blindness. Red-green color blindness simply
means that a person cannot distinguish shades of red and green
(usually blue-green). Their visual acuity (ability to see) is
normal. Males are affected more often than females, because the
gene is located on the X chromosome.
X-LINKED RECESSIVE GENE DISORDER
34. Summary of Genetics
• Chromosomes carry hereditary info (genes)
• Chromosomes (and genes) occur in pairs
• New combinations of genes occur in sexual
reproduction
• Monohybrid vs. Dihybrid crosses
• Mendel’s Principles:
– Dominance: one allele masks another
– Segregation: genes become separated in gamete formation
– Independent Assortment: Members of one gene pair
segregate independently from other gene pairs during gamete
formation
