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.

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.

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
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
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.

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.
2. True or False?
• People with Depression are usually very sad and suicidal.
• People with OCD are usually obsessed with cleanliness and order.
• Psychopaths are usually dangerous, insane, and murderous.
• Schizophrenics are usually delusional and have multiple personalities.
3. The Media is to Blame
Depression, OCD, Psychopathy, and Schizophrenia are the four most
commonly portrayed mental disorders. And usually, they are grossly
misrepresented in:
• Film
• Television
• Novels & Novellas
• Short Stories & Poems
• Stage Plays
• Musicals
• Comic Books
• Video Games
5. The Myths of Depression
• People with Depression are usually extremely sad.
• People with Depression are usually very suicidal.
• Depression has only mentally related symptoms.
• Depression is all mood related.
These symptoms are not of
Depression, they are of
Suicidal Ideation.
6. The Realities of Depression
Sadness is not the only or even the most prominent symptom of depression. Sufferers
of the ailment can feel physically weakened as well, either via soreness or just
exhaustion.
It is also not merely a mood disorder, as it can be inflicted by anything from traumatic
events to chemical imbalances within the brain.
Lastly, suicidal thoughts are not obsessive to Depression sufferers, and are but of the
most extreme examples of out of control Depression.
7. According to the DSM, Depression is characterized by nine main symptoms:
• A negative change in mood
• A loss of interest or pleasure
• Significant weight changes
• Sleep disturbances
• Psychomotor retardation
• Physical fatigue or exhaustion
• A diminished ability to concentrate
• A sense of worthlessness
• Suicidality
Sufferers of Depression can be afflicted by any and all of these symptoms.
8.
9. The Myths of OCD
• People with OCD are afraid of dirtiness.
• People with OCD are afraid of disorganization.
• People with OCD always wash things and rearrange things.
• The obsessions and compulsions mean the same thing.
These are not symptoms of OCD,
These are symptoms of Germaphobia
and/or Ataxophobia.
10. The Realities of OCD
First, Obsessions and Compulsions are two completely different things:
• Obsessions are repetitive and irrational thoughts and anxieties.
• Compulsions are repetitive and irrational actions or tics.
The obsessions and compulsions can revolve around most anything, not only
cleanliness and order. And they are not fears or phobias. They are their own,
separate thing.
11. The Realities of OCD (cont.)
OCD TRAITS
Ordering Neutralizing Hoarding Cleaning Checking Obsessing
Ecker, Kupfer, and Gonner. Incompleteness as a Link. (2014)
Of the six most common
OCD Traits, Ordering is
actually the least common,
and Cleaning is only the
third most common.
12. According to the DSM, OCD is characterized by two main symptoms:
• Repetitive and irrational obsessions that may be graphic, violent, or sexual, or
simply unwanted and are nigh impossible to shake.
• Repetitive and irrational compulsions that the person may try to ignore but
are nigh impossible to shake.
13.
14. The Myths of Psychopathy
• Psychopaths are usually dangerous.
• Psychopaths are obsessed with violence.
• Psychopaths are compelled to kill.
• Psychopaths are usually evil.
• Being psychopathic means being mentally insane.
These symptoms more or less
describe Psychosis better than
Psychopathy.
15. The Realities of Psychopathy
The term Psychopathic is usually assumed to be just another synonym for “insane” or “crazy”.
But in reality, Psychopathy has nothing to do with actual insanity or detachment from reality.
Psychopathy literally is just a disorder that causes the sufferer to be unable to feel guilt or
remorse.
And although this in itself can lead to an increased chance of becoming a serial killer or other
kind of criminal, it means they could become one – not that they will become one.
Think of it this way. If you have a bathtub in your house, you increase your chances of
drowning. If you have a plastic bag in your house, you increase your chances of asphyxiating.
You can, but it doesn’t mean you will.
16. • A diminished or complete lack of remorse and/or guilt
• Pathological lying
• A grandiose sense of self-worth
• An impaired or a complete lack of the ability to form close or long-term
platonic or romantic relationships
17.
18. The Myths of Schizophrenia
• Delusions and Hallucinations are the same thing.
• Schizophrenics are mostly delusional.
• Schizophrenics have dialogues with their hallucinations/delusions.
• Schizophrenics have multiple personalities.
These symptoms match Multiple
Personality Disorder better than
they match Schizophrenia.
19. The Realities of Schizophrenia
First off, Hallucinations are Delusions are not the same thing:
• Hallucinations are auditory or visual figments that the sufferer knows to be
nonexistent.
• Delusions are auditory or visual figments that the sufferer believes to be existent.
Delusions are possible for a Schizophrenic to suffer from, but Hallucinations are far
more commonplace.
20. The Realities of Schizophrenia (cont.)
As for the common belief that Schizophrenics have multiple personalities, that
is actually a symptom of Multiple Personality Disorder, and has absolutely
nothing to do with Schizophrenia.
21. According to the DSM, Schizophrenia is made up of five different symptoms:
• Auditory or visual hallucinations
• Auditory or visual delusions
• High levels of Paranoia
• Disorganized speech
• Disorganized thoughts
The DSM’s Definition of
Schizophrenia
22. Quick Review
• Depression does not always equal Sadness and Suicide.
• OCD does not always equal Cleanliness and Order.
• Psychopathy does not always equal Violence and Murder.
• Schizophrenia does not always equal Delusions and Multiple Personalities.

23. Concluding…
There are other disorders that are misrepresented by the media everyday, always
furthering the popular stereotypes of mental illness:
• ADHD
• BPD
• EDD
• IED
• PTSD
• And hundreds, hundreds more…
24. Why It’s Important to be Aware of Mental
Illness Myths and Mental Illness Realities
• It’s important to be aware of other people’s issues.
• You or a loved one could eventually become afflicted by one.
• All things learned are things worth learning.
• It’s respectable, courteous, and good natured to those who have them. We
appreciate the effort you put into being learned about our conditions; we
don’t have to feel like outcasts or pariahs; we enjoy not being mistaken as
lunatics, and instead being noticed as the humans we are – humans who just
happen to have a disease no more weirder than asthma or lactose-intolerance.
