Figs are a versatile, hardy tree that can grow well in containers or gardens. They prefer warm climates and well-draining soil. Figs produce two crops annually, with the first crop forming on last year's wood in winter and a larger summer crop forming from new growth. Common pests include birds, possums, fruit fly, and blister mites. Popular varieties to try include Black Genoa, Brown Turkey, and White Adriatic.

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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science.

1. Figs
Ficus carica
The fabulously delicious fig – known to the Egyptians as the “Tree of Life” – is a wonderful addition
to most backyards (and kitchens). A large, deciduous, well-shaped tree, the fig is an excellent shade
specimen for small to medium sized backyards. They can be trimmed and trained into a manageable
size, grown as a hedge or even espaliered like the one on the wall of the SGA office (pic below).
Figs are a versatile fruit, eaten fresh, glazed, dried, poached and
cooked, and they are a very healthy option as well. Figs are high
in fibre and vitamin C and the sap of fig trees is reportedly
useful in getting rid of warts! (Some people are allergic to the
sap though use caution when handling it for the first time.) Figs
are said to be an aphrodisiac too!
Another interesting fact about Figs is that they flowers on the inside – the pulp inside the fig fruit is
actually lots of tiny little flowers. Many figs require a wasp to pollinate the flowers through the
small white eye on the end of the fruit, so think very carefully before using chemicals and traps in
your backyard that may harm these wonderful wasps. Most commercially available varieties of figs
2. including those listed below are self fertile though.
As a sub tropical tree, the fig prefers a Mediterranean climate with warm to hot summers and cooler
winters so it is very suited to most areas of Australia. The hardy fig is quite adaptable though and
will cope with cold winters, though if you live in areas prone to heavy frosts you may need to protect
young trees. Figs are reasonably drought tolerant, though lack of water can affect fruit
production. Fig trees will also grow and fruit well in large pots too.
The secret to a good fig is a rich, free-draining soil with a
neutral pH. A good layer of straw mulch and plenty of organic
matter (like home-made compost) will also give your tree a
boost. Figs don’t like wet feet and are often are planted in
raised beds or mounds to ensure good drainage. Choose a
sunny spot with not too much wind, in a position where you
can enjoy the summer shade provided by this top tree. A full
grown fig can be 3 meters high and up to 5 meters wide in the
canopy so take this into account when selecting a spot.
Many fig trees varieties crop twice each. The first (or breba) crop form
on last years wood. You can often see the tiny fruits dormant on the
tree over winter. A heavier crop is then produced later in summer
when the new growth develops. Fruit normally forms in theleaf axils
on new wood, so pruning a fig is a straightforward and infrequent task.
Give it a light trim in winter to stimulate new growth for fruiting, but
leave some old wood on the tree for the breba fruiting. Dead and
diseased wood should be removed and more mature trees may need heavier pruning to encourage
new growth.
Harvesting is the best part of growing a fabulous fig. Fruit should be picked when they are slightly
soft to the touch and smelling sweet. Figs will NOT continue to ripen once they have been removed
from the tree, so pick them when you need them and handle them with care as they can bruise
easily.
As if all that wasn’t enough for this versatile, hardy, delicious tree – fig trees are easy to propagate
too. Take hardwood cuttings in late autumn, about 20 – 30cm long with several nodes. Plant the
cutting in a free draining propagation mix, making sure you cover a couple of the nodes.
Pests of fig trees are fairly minimal, but you may have to fight with the birds and possums to be the
first at the figs! Invest in some netting to keep these voracious feeders away but be sure to check it
regularly to ensure there are no creatures trapped in it. Though they are considered very hardy
trees, figs can also be affected by a number of other pests and diseases.
Queensland fruit fly (Dacus tryoni) – is a major pest in many areas of NSW. Small, brown/black
flies with distinctive cream to yellow markings on the mid-section, the female lays eggs in ripening
3. fruit which then spoils. Pheromone traps. attract and kill male flies. Fallen fruit should be
destroyed.
Fig blister mite (Aceria ficus) – colourless to white, blister mites attack inside the fruit leaving
rust coloured dry patches that affect eating quality. You won’t know they are there till you harvest
the first fruits. If you find damaged fruit, destroy it to prevent subsequent fruits being infected as
they ripen.
Fig rust and Anthracnose – both fungal diseases that affect mainly coastal areas, Fig rust
produces powdery yellow spots form on the leaves. Anthracnose forms small brown to black spots,
which develop into a larger patch of infection. With both diseases, leaves will turn yellow and then
fall. As with most fungal disease, copper-based fungicides are normally used for control.
Fig mosaic virus – affects leaf pigment and causes a mottled pattern on the leaf. Affected plants
need to be destroyed.
Other problems that are not specific to fig but can affect them include root knot nematode
(Meloidogyne spp.) and dried fruit beetle (Carpophilus spp.)
