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.
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

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.

Normal Labour/ Stages of Labour/ Mechanism of LabourWasim Ak
Normal labor is also termed spontaneous labor, defined as the natural physiological process through which the fetus, placenta, and membranes are expelled from the uterus through the birth canal at term (37 to 42 weeks
2. What Is The Scientific
Method?
0The scientific method is a process used
to answer questions about the world
around us through the use of
observation and experimentation.
0This process is used in our everyday life
even if we don’t realize it!
3. What Is The First Of The
Scientific Method?
0The first step of the scientific method is
to identify a problem or question based
on observations that you have made.
4. What Is The Second Step Of
The Scientific Method?
0The second step of the scientific method
is to make a hypothesis.
0The hypothesis is a prediction (educated
guess) to answer your questions.
5. What Is The Third Step Of The
Scientific Method
0 The third step of the scientific method involves setting
up a detailed and step-by-step experiment that will
test your hypothesis.
0 It is very important that you design your experiment
so that it is reliable.
0 In order for your experiment to be considered
reliable, you must have the conditions the same way
each time you test and your measurements must be
consistent.
6. How Do I Ensure My
Experiment Is Reliable?
0 In order to make your experiment reliable, you can
only test one variable. A variable is the one thing that
you are changing/testing in your experiment. There
are 3 types of variables:
0 Control Variable-The variable that is held constant.
0 Dependent Variable- The variable that measures the
outcome.
0 Independent Variable- The variable that is being
changed or tested.
7. Observing During The
Experiment
0Observing is using your senses or
instruments to record data, making
notes of any changes occurring such as
color change, gas production etc.
0You want to make sure you use as much
detail as possible when describing your
observations.
8. What Is The Fourth Step Of
The Scientific Method
0 The fourth step of the scientific method is recording
and analyzing your data.
0 Data is the information gathered during your
experiment and it is usually put into a chart, table or
graph. There are 2 types of data based on your
observations:
0 Quantitative-Observations that are expressed in
numbers.
0 Qualitative-Observations that are more description
based such as smell, taste, texture etc.
9. What Is The Final Step Of The
Scientific Method?
0The final step of the scientific method is
to make a conclusion and communicate
your results. Focus on how the data you
collected supported or “busted” your
hypothesis.
10. Now Let’s Practice
0 I was making bread the other day and noticed that
when the bread came out of the oven it was flat. It
made me stop and reflect and realize that I don’t think
I put the yeast in the bowl as recipe required. Perfect
time to use the scientific method I figure. I came up
with the following question:
0Will bread rise without adding yeast?
12. Setting Up The Experiment
0 I have decided that I am going to make 2 loaves of
bread. The first loaf will be my control variable as I
will follow the recipe exactly.
0 The second loaf I will follow the recipe except I will
leave out the yeast (independent variable).
0When the bread is done I will take both loaves out at
the same time. I will measure the height of each of
bread from the bottom of the loaf to its highest point.
(dependent variable).
13. Data Analysis
0 Loaf 1 Qualitative data- light brown, firm, smooth,
high/risen
0 Loaf 1 Quantitative data- 7.5 inches high
0 Loaf 2 Qualitative data- light brown, bumpy, very
firm, flat/did not rise
0 Loaf 2 Quantitative data- 3 inches high
14. Conclusion
0 The data I collected during this experiment did indeed
support my hypothesis that bread will not rise
without yeast. Visibly loaf 1 was higher than loaf 2.
Loaf 1 also measured higher than loaf 2. Leaving out
the yeast did make a difference.
