The document summarizes theories on the origins of life on Earth including the Miller-Urey experiment, formation of early cells around thermal vents, RNA as the first genetic material, and the endosymbiotic theory. The Miller-Urey experiment showed how organic molecules could form in conditions similar to early Earth. Early cells may have assembled around thermal vents where organic polymers could concentrate. The endosymbiotic theory proposes that mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotic cells originated as prokaryotic endosymbionts that were engulfed by other cells and evidence supports some bacteria living within archaea or eukaryotes.

Based on the information in Atom- Clash of the Titans- please answer t.docxdanielt47
Based on the information in “Atom: Clash of the Titans”, please answer the following questions:
1. Why was it so important that the scientists investigating the atom be young and unattached to existing scientific thinking?
2. What connection did Bohr discover between atoms and light?
3. Why did Einstein hate Bohr’s ideas - quantum mechanics, electrons jumping and releasing light - about the atom?
Solution
1) The scientists investigating the atom should be young as was then the young scientist Albert Einstein. His harsh arrogance led him barely any employment, thereby because of his undemanding job he had a lot of time to have deep thoughts. And that was the era wherin he worked on to prove the existence of atom. Though it was Boltzman who started work on this topic but due to his health conditions and alegations on him being irrelegious materialist lead to him comitting suicide.
And the scientists should be unattached to existing scientific thinking as was scientist Neil Bohr who was fearless in his thinking and was ready to abandon common sense and human intution to find an explanation.
2)Bohr\'s connection between atoms and light was as follows-quantum jumps
Light is emitted when an electron jumps from a higher orbit to a lower orbit and is absorbed when jumps from lower to higher orbit. In order to overcome the limitations of Bohr model and to develop a general model for atoms.The 2 developments contibuted a lot -
3)As the bohr idea of new atom and quantum jumps were not so traditional neither they matched classical science theories thus the old school people strongly opposed it. And Albert Einstein was one of them as he wanted to save the world of order and wanted to preserve the common sense.

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.
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
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.
