This document provides information and recommendations for parents to protect their children from tobacco addiction. It notes that children with parents who smoke are more likely to smoke. It recommends maintaining a tobacco-free home, telling children you don't want them to use tobacco, emphasizing the health and appearance effects of smoking, and educating children about tobacco marketing tactics. While parental influence is important, outside factors like tobacco marketing also strongly impact children, spending over $9.6 billion annually to promote products. Comprehensive prevention programs that address these multiple influences can most effectively reduce youth tobacco use.

Primary Care Interventions for Prevention and Cessation of Tobacco Use
in Children and Adolescents
US Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
US Preventive Services Task Force
Summary of Recommendations
The USPSTF recommends that primary care clinicians provide interventions, including education or
brief counseling, to prevent initiation of tobacco use among school-aged children and adolescents. B
The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and
harms of primary careâfeasible interventions for the cessation of tobacco use among school-aged
children and adolescents.
I
See the Figure for a more detailed summary of the recommendation for clinicians. See the Practice Considerations section for more information on effective
interventions to prevent initiation of tobacco use and for suggestions for practice regarding the I statement. USPSTF indicates US Preventive Services Task Force.
IMPORTANCE Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death in the US. An estimated
annual 480 000 deaths are attributable to tobacco use in adults, including from secondhand
smoke. It is estimated that every day about 1600 youth aged 12 to 17 years smoke their first
cigarette and that about 5.6 million adolescents alive today will die prematurely from a
smoking-related illness. Although conventional cigarette use has gradually declined among
children in the US since the late 1990s, tobacco use via electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is
quickly rising and is now more common among youth than cigarette smoking. e-Cigarette
products usually contain nicotine, which is addictive, raising concerns about e-cigarette use
and nicotine addiction in children. Exposure to nicotine during adolescence can harm the
developing brain, which may affect brain function and cognition, attention, and mood; thus,
minimizing nicotine exposure from any tobacco product in youth is important.
OBJECTIVE To update its 2013 recommendation, the USPSTF commissioned a review of the
evidence on the benefits and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco use prevention
and cessation in children and adolescents. The current systematic review newly included
e-cigarettes as a tobacco product.
POPULATION This recommendation applies to school-aged children and adolescents younger
than 18 years.
EVIDENCE ASSESSMENT The USPSTF concludes with moderate certainty that primary
careâfeasible behavioral interventions, including education or brief counseling, to prevent
tobacco use in school-aged children and adolescents have a moderate net benefit. The
USPSTF concludes that there is insufficient evidence to determine the balance of benefits
and harms of primary care interventions for tobacco cessation among school-aged children
and adolescents who already smoke, because of a lack of adequately powered studies on
behavioral counseling interventions and a lack of studies on medications.
RECOMMENDATION The USPSTF recommends that.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Â
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 wasnât 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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Â
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.

3. Research shows that children who
have a parent who smokes are more
likely to smoke and to be heavier
smokers at young ages.
If you donât use
tobacco, donât start!
If you do use
tobacco, quit!
(1)
4. If you use tobacco,
share your struggles to
quit with your children.
Kids greatly underestimate how
difficult it is to quit.(2)
5. A tobacco-free home makes children
less likely to use tobacco.
Maintain a
tobacco-free home
(3)
6. Parental attitudes, opinions, and
feelings about their kidsâ tobacco
status greatly influence whether
or not kids will use tobacco.
Tell your kids
that you donât
want them
to use tobacco
and will be
disappointed
if they do.
(4)
7. By making sure that kids know
how harmful tobacco is, parents can help
kids to develop a firm, negative perception
or attitude about tobacco and its
consequences, and kids with such
negative perceptions or attitudes are
less likely to use tobacco.
Make sure your
kids have the facts
they need.
(5)
8. Most teenagers wrongly believe that
smoking will have no direct effect on their
health until they reach middle age. But smoking
causes many immediate or near-term effects on
health, including persistent coughs, respiratory
problems, a greater susceptibility to illness,
and decreased physical performance.
Emphasize the
immediate health
effects.
(6)
9. Tobacco ads create the image that
tobacco use is sexy and attractive;
and kids identify improving self-
image as a reason for using
tobacco. Tobacco use actually
causes yellow teeth, bad
breath, smelly clothes, and
more severe and early
facial wrinkles.
Emphasize the
effects of smoking on
physical appearance.
(7)
11. While parents can play an important role
in youth tobacco prevention, kids are subject
to other powerful influences outside their
homes. Most notably, the tobacco companies
spend more than $9.6 billion per year to
market and promote their products.
$9.6 BILLION
(8)
12. Research studies have
found that kids are three
times as sensitive to
tobacco advertising
than adults.
Most of
these
marketing
efforts
reach kids.
(8)
13. But dumping the entire burden on parents will
not stop tobacco companies from developing new
products that appeal to kids nor will it stop
tobacco marketing that reaches kids.
Big tobacco says
preventing tobacco
use among kids is the
responsibility of
the parents.
(8)
14. Reduce the powerful impact of tobacco ads by
talking with your children about the adsâ false sense
of coolness & beauty, as well as about how the tobacco
companies try to manipulate kids into becoming
their future addicted customers.
Show your kids how
tobacco ads and images
are designed to
manipulate them.
15. Make your kidsâ schools
tobacco-free & support
other local tobacco
prevention efforts.
Find out if your school is tobacco free.
16. Friends, movies, music, celebrities, or
advertising may give teens the impression
that tobacco use is sexy, helps lose weight,
or can help them fit in. These are myths.
Using tobacco is not a sign of maturity,
and most adults who started using
tobacco as teens later regret it.
Critique what
teens hear
about tobacco.
17. Cigarettes are the most common form of tobacco
use, including tobacco use among teens. However there
are other forms of tobacco that teens may try to use.
Sometimes they do so, thinking that the health risks
or chance of addiction are lower.
Provide accurate
information about different
forms of tobacco.
(9)
20. Packs of cigarettes consumed by
kids each year: 540 million
Kids under 18 alive today in North Dakota
who will ultimately die from smoking
(unless smoking declines): 14,000
Tobacco companies spend nearly
a million dollars an hour in this country
alone to market their products.
Kids (under 18) who try smoking for the
first time each day: 2,500+
The more young people are exposed to
tobacco advertising and promotional activities,
the more likely they are to smoke.(10)
21. Some cigarette-sized cigars contain candy and fruit
flavoring, such as strawberry and grape.
Many tobacco
products on the market
appeal to youth.
(12)
24. Policies are very important in preventing young people
from using tobacco because they can change the
environment so that choosing a tobacco-free life is
encouraged and supported. You can make a difference,
starting today by showing your support for policies:
What you can do
Make tobacco products less affordable by
increasing tobacco taxes.
Support existing tobacco-free and smoke-free
policies within your community and show your support
for new policies that protect kids from using tobacco,
which can include tobacco-free schools, daycares and
outdoor public places such as parks and recreation areas.
Restrict tobacco marketing.
