Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and energy in the form of glucose. It takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the green pigment chlorophyll. There are two phases - the light reaction phase which uses energy from sunlight to split water and produce ATP and NADPH, and the Calvin cycle which uses this energy to fix carbon from carbon dioxide into organic molecules like glucose. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by factors like light intensity, temperature, and carbon dioxide levels. Lihops, a type of South African living stone, has adaptations like translucent leaf pockets and non-photochemical quenching to boost photosynthesis in

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

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.

3. What is Photosynthesis
• Plants are called autotrophs because they can use the suns energy to make their own
food
• This is a process by which green plants use energy from the sun to synthesize
nutrients from Carbon Dioxide and water
• It is performed by all plants,algae and even some micro-organisms
• For this process to take place use sunlight,water and gases in the air
• They make organic molecules (glucose)out of inorganic materials
(Co2 and H2O)
• It begins all food chains /webs making all life supported by this process
• Sometimes called Carbon assimilation
4. Photosynthesis in Overview
• In this process plants and other autotrophs store the energy of
sunlight into sugars.
• Requires sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
• Overall equation:6CO2 + 6H2O-----------C6H1206+6O2
• By taking in water through the roots ,carbon dioxide from the air and
light and energy from the sun , plants can photosynthesize
• to make glucose and sugar
• After the sugar is made by mitochondria into energy that can be used
for growth and repair
• Just as animals plants too respire. Animals,howver take in the gas
Oxygen through respiration .
5. Chloroplasts
•Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, organelles in certain plants
All green plant parts have chloroplasts and carry out photosynthesis
•The leaves have the most chloroplasts
•Chloroplasts contain the pigment chlorophyll ,which reflects green light by absorbing
Red and blue light .Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain stacks of
Thylakoids
Chlorophyll is located within the thylakoid membrane and the space between the two is called the
stroma
•A chloroplast contains:
ostroma, a fluid
oGrana, stacks of thylakoids
7. But why are plants green?
• Light which can be seen by the human eye-visible light spectrum,appears in several
colours from blue to red.We perceive the colour when the object reflects light back into
our eyes.
• Other colours are absorbed and we only see the reflected wavelengths
• Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light and reflects green light ,that is why they appear
green in colour
Gamma

Why are plants
green? Transmitted

9. Lihops –a type of South African living
stone
This unique plant that lives underground uses multiple mechanisms to boost
photosynthesis and has shown new ways in how to adapt to extreme conditions
The underground life makes it difficult to gain light for photosynthesis and still
conserve water . Lihops have adaptations to do this
They have a top surface of translucent pockets which allows light to penetrate
deep within the leaf .But too much light can be dangerous ,the plant has organ
called non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) that block out harmful uv rays of the
sun
12. Photosynthetic Reactions
There are two phases in photosynthesis ;There are light dependant and light
independent reactions.
Light dependant reactions use light and light independent reactions do not ,we say
they are independent of light or dark
Remember not refer to light independent factors as dark reactions (darkness is
not required)
13. Light process
. Light Reaction (Electron Flow )
• Occurs in the Thylakoid membranes
• During the light reaction, there are two possible routes for
electron flow.
Here the energy of the sunlight is used to split h2o into hydrogen
ions and hydroxyl ions .Oxygen is then formed from reactions
,involving hydroxyl ions ,as a by product –and can be used in cellular
respiration
14. Processes
Calvin cycle
• In plants,CO2 enters the interior of a leave through the stomata
and diffuses into the stroma of the chloroplast ,The site of the
Calvin Cycle
• During this step also known as carbon fixation ,energy from
ATP AND NADPH generated from the light reaction drives
chemical pathways that uses the carbon in the carbon dioxide to
build free sugar called glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
• Cells then use that sugar to build a wide variety of other sugars
• Much of this occurs outside the chloroplast
• The products of this are then transported to other parts of the
cells
• In plants some sugars are stored as Starch
