By Thiru murugan. M
Unit – 7: Anatomy - The Musculoskeletal system:
The Skeletal system
Anatomical positions
Bones: types, structure, growth and ossification
Axial and appendicular skeleton
Joints: classification, major joints and structure
Application and implications in nursing
The Muscular system:
Types and structure of muscles
Muscle groups: muscles of the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, upper limb and lower limbs
Principal muscles: deltoid, biceps, triceps, respiratory, abdominal, pelvic floor muscles, gluteal muscles and vastus lateralis
Major muscles involved in nursing procedures
Skeletal system:
The human skeletal system consists of all of the bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments in the body
It Provide framework of the body.
Altogether, the skeleton makes up about 20% of a person's body weight. An adult's skeleton contains 206 bones.
It providing support and protection for the internal organs
The skeletal system also provides attachment points for muscles to allow movements at the joints.
Components of skeletal system:
Cartilage: This smooth and flexible substance covers the tips of your bones where they meet. It enables bones to move without friction (rubbing against each other).
Functions of Cartilage:
Model for bone growth in embryo & fetus
Provides a smooth cushion between adjacent bones
Provides firm flexible support (nose, ears, ribs & trachea)
Excellent shock absorber
Ligaments: Bands of strong connective tissue called ligaments hold bones together.
Functions of Ligaments:
Attach bones to bones
Provide stability
Tendons: Tendons are bands of tissue that connect the ends of a muscle to your bone.
Functions of Tendons:
Attach muscles to bones
Anchors muscle to bone for movement
Joints: A joint is where two or more bones in the body come together.
Anatomical position:
Anatomical position, or standard anatomical position, refers to the positioning of the body when it is standing upright and facing forward with each arm hanging on either side of the body, and the palms facing forward. The legs are parallel, with feet flat on the floor and facing forward.
Bones – types, structure, growth and ossification:
Bones:
Bone are specialized forms of strong connective tissue that forms the skeleton of the body.
It is composed of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate.
It also serves as a storage area for calcium, playing a large role in calcium balance in the blood
The smallest bone in the human body is called the stirrup or stapes bone, located deep inside the ear & The longest bone in the human is called the femur.
Classification or types of bones:
Bones are divided into 5 types.
Long Bone
Short Bone
Flat Bone
Irregular Bone
Sesamoid Bone
1. Long Bone:
A long bone is one that is cylindrical in shape, being longer than it is wide.
Shape of a bone, not its size.
Long bones are found in: Arms (humerus, ulna, radius) & fingers (metacarpals, phalanges) and also Legs (femur, tibia, fibula),

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

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.

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.

What does the Skeletal System
consist of?
5. Functions of the Skeleton
Muscle Attachment and Movement
The long bones of the skeleton act as levers. Muscles attached to
these bones and pull on them to create movement
Storage of Minerals
Minerals such as calcium and phosphate ions are stored in the bones
to be drawn upon when necessary
Protection of Vital Organs
The skeleton protects vital organs and delicate structures within the
body
Shape
The skeleton gives the body its characteristic shape and provides a
framework for support
Production
The marrow cavity of some bones, such as the sternum, is a site of
production for red and white blood cells.

Divisions of the Skeleton
10. There are 33 individual bones in total:
7 Cervical vertebrae:
• 1st is called the ATLAS which supports the skull and forms a pivot with the AXIS
(2nd cervical vertebrae)
12 Thoracic vertebrae:
• Form joints with the ribs to form the ribcage
5 Lumbar vertebrae:
• The largest and strongest vertebrae
5 Sacral:
• Fused to form the sacrum
4 Coccygeal:
• Fused to form the coccyx
Vertebral Column (Spine)
11. Vertebral Column (Spine)
All the vertebrae join to one another to form a
flexible column that:
• Supports the trunk and head
• Encloses and protects the spinal cord
In between each vertebrae there are intervertebral
discs (fibrous cartilage) which act as shock
absorbers between each of the vertebrae
12. Curves of the Spine
• 4 ‘natural’ curves named after the vertebrae
that form them:
Cervical
Thoracic
Lumbar
Sacral
• These curves centre the head above the body
and make walking and maintaining an upright
posture more easy
Curves of the Spine
13. Curves of the Spine
Genetic and lifestyle factors can cause curvature of the
spinal to become exaggerated or excessive which gives a
distorted appearance to an individuals posture

19. Bone Classifications
• Long Bones
Found in the limbs. Their length is greater than their breadth. They
have a tubular shaft and usually an epiphysis at each end covered
by hyaline cartilage
Movement
• Short Bones
Found in the hand and foot primarily. Roughly cuboid in shape
Movement / strength
• Irregular Bones
Composed of a thin shell of compact bone and an interior of
cancellous bone
Protection
• Flat Bones
Composed of thin and inner and outer layers of compact bone
separated by a layer of cancellous bone
Muscle attachment

20. Bone Growth
Bones are living and need a good blood supply in order to
bring nutrients and oxygen, and to get rid of waste products
The bone also needs nerves to send information to the brain
about pain or damage caused to a bone
Bones at birth are mainly cartilage. As the skeleton matures
calcium and magnesium are deposited within the cartilage by
osteoblasts (bone building cells). This process of bone growth
is called OSSIFICATION
Ossification is complete by the age of about 25 years
The cartilage gives the bones their resilience and calcium
gives them their hardness.
21. • COMPACT BONE - forms the main shaft of the bone.
• SPONGY BONE (cancellous bone) - is found at the ends
of the bone
• RED MARROW - which produces red and white blood
cells is found within the cavity of the bone shaft
• With the exception of the ends of the bone, a fibrous
sheath covers the bone, this is called PERIOSTEUM
• Periosteum has a rich supply of blood vessels, providing
nutrients for bone cells during growth and repair.
Structure of a Long Bone
23. Growing bone is vulnerable to damage
Exercise training with children therefore requires care
Research suggests exercise with young children needs to
be of moderate intensity to have a positive effect on bone
development
Resistance training with children should consist of high
reps and low resistance
Heavy/strenuous work with young children could lead to
overuse injuries and fractures of the epiphyseal plates,
which could effect growth and future bone development
Ossification
Important implications for exercise
24. Bones change their size and shape during a
lifespan
Increasing age and inactivity can lead to bone
demineralisation and fragile bones (osteoporosis)
Regular weight bearing exercise will increase bone
density, making it stronger as a result of the pulling
forces exerted by the muscle on the bone
Factors Affecting Bone Growth
25. This is where bones become thinner and more
fragile
Exercise does not need to be vigorous; everyday
activities such as walking are beneficial
Any weight bearing exercise program is effective
as it encourages an increase in bone density.
Bones become stronger due to the pulling forces of
the muscles on the bone. Without this action, bone
loses calcium faster than it can be replaced
Osteoporosis
