Surrogacy is the process of assisted reproduction where a woman carries and delivers a child for other parents who are unable to conceive a child due to several reasons. There are two types of surrogacies gestational surrogacy and traditional surrogacy. A gestational surrogate is a person who carries someone else's pregnancy and has no genetic relation to the child and a traditional surrogate is biologically related to the child.

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.
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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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
3. INTRODUCTION
The word “surrogate” is originated from latin word “subrogare”,
which means “appointed to act in the place of”.
A surrogate/surrogate mother is a women who carries a child for
someone else, and the process is called surrogacy.
The fertility clinic offers surrogate mothers between the age
group of 23 to 40 yrs, preferably a married women with kids to
carry the baby for another women who are unable to carry the
pregnancy in their womb due to some medical conditions.
4.
5. Methods of surrogacy
Gestational surrogacy:
In this method, the child is genetically unrelated to surrogate. The
embryo is created via in vitro fertilization (IVF), using the eggs and
sperm of the intended parents or donors, and then transferred to
the surrogate who is often referred to as a gestational carrier.
The embryo is created using the intended father’s sperm and the
intended mother’s eggs.
The embryo is created using the intended father’s sperm and a
donor egg.
The embryo is created using the intended mother’s egg and
donor sperm.
A donor embryo is transferred to a surrogate.
6. Cntd…
A traditional surrogacy (partial, natural, or straight surrogacy)
:
In traditional surrogacy, surrogate’s egg is fertilized in vivo
by the intended father’s or a donor’s sperm.
Insemination of the surrogate can be either through
natural or artificial insemination.
Using the sperm of the donor results in a child who is not
genetically related to the intended parents.
7. Indication
Absence of uterus; which may be innate or due to hysterectomy.
Significant uterine anomaly. Eg: irreparable Asherman syndrome,
Unicornuate uterus associated with recurrent pregnancy loss.
Absolute or serious medical contraindication to pregnancy. Eg:
pulmonary hypertension.
Biological inability to conceive. Eg: single male, homosexual male
couple.
Unidentified endometrial factor. Eg: multiple unexplained previous IVF
failures despite the transfer of good-quality embryos, recurrent
miscarriages and implantation failure.
8. Counseling
For the genetic couples:
A review of all alternative treatment options.
The need for counseling.
They need to find their host.
The practical difficulty and cost of treatment.
The medical and psychological risks of surrogacy.
Potential psychological risk to the child.
The chances of having multiple pregnancies.
Possibility of child born with abnormality.
possibility of smoking and drinking during pregnancy.
The possibility that the host may wish to retain the child after birth.
The importance of obtaining legal advice associated with surrogacy.
9. Cntd…
For the host:
The full implications of undergoing treatment by IVF and surrogacy.
The possibility of multiple pregnancies.
Social implication associated with surrogacy practice.
Abstinence from unsafe sex during and just before the treatment.
The medical risks associated with pregnancy and possibility of caesarian
section.
Psychological risks associated with surrogacy.
The possibility of sense of bereavement while giving baby to the genetic
parents.
The possibility that the child may be born with abnormality.
10.
11. Process of surrogacy
Find a surrogate and create a legal contract and have it reviewed.
The embryo transfer could be fresh or cryopreserved.
For a fresh surrogate transfer, medications (eg: oral contraceptive pills
or progesterone) are used to synchronize the menstrual cycles of both
the gestational surrogate and intended mother.
The intended mother uses fertility medication to stimulate the
development of eggs.
The gestational surrogate takes medications to prepare her uterus for
surrogacy.
At the appropriate time, the eggs are removed from the intended
mother(or independent egg donor) and fertilized in vitro with her
partner’s sperm( or with donor sperm).
12. Cntd…
The cultured embryos are then transferred into the uterus of
gestational surrogate.
Once a pregnancy is confirmed, a surrogate either stays in
surrogate house or her home and obstetric care is provided.
As the child is born, the intended parents obtain full legal custody
as outlined in the legal contract.
The process may differ according to the type of surrogacy and
country
13. Complications
Multiple pregnancy and obstetric complications.
Emotional trauma to surrogate after having to relinquish the child.
The host may wish to keep the child.
An abnormal child may be rejected by both genetic and host parents.
The question of whether it is ethical to pay hosts and if so how much.
The long term effects on children born as a result of gestational
surrogacy are not known.
The long term psychological effect on both the genetic couple and
host surrogates is not known.
A few genetic woman have responded poorly to follicular stimulation.
