Researchers found that in individuals with autism spectrum disorder, there was an initial excess of amygdala neurons during childhood compared to neurotypical individuals. However, across amygdala nuclei there was a reduction in the number of neurons in adults with autism spectrum disorder. This contrasts with neurotypical development where the number of mature amygdala neurons increases from childhood to adulthood. The altered neuronal development in the amygdala of individuals with autism may underlie volumetric changes seen in autism spectrum disorder.

Scientific method

Muhammad Rehan

The document outlines the steps of the scientific method, which include making an observation, asking a question, proposing a hypothesis, conducting an experiment, analyzing data, and drawing a conclusion. It provides an example of applying these steps to investigate why raspberries did not grow well one year. An observation was made that the raspberries were small. The question asked was why this occurred. The hypothesis proposed was that lack of rain was the cause. An experiment was conducted where raspberry plants received different amounts of water and their growth was measured. The results showed more water led to bigger plants, supporting the hypothesis that insufficient rain limited growth.

This document provides a summary of 45 education continuity stories from initiatives around the world that supported learners and teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic when schools were closed. The stories are organized into two parts: Part I draws lessons from the initiatives and looks toward rebuilding education in a stronger way post-pandemic. It finds that the initiatives demonstrated a spirit of innovation, quick experimentation, strong leadership, collaboration, and willingness to reimagine technology's role in education. Financial resources will be needed to reshape education systems based on what was learned. Part II contains the 45 education continuity stories from initiatives in countries around the world. The stories describe how each initiative addressed problems caused by school closures, mobilized resources

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...

indexPub

The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
