Anthropometric measurements are a series of quantitative measurements of the muscle, bone, and adipose tissue used to assess the composition of the body. The core elements of anthropometry are height, weight, body mass index (BMI), body circumferences (waist, hip, and limbs), and skinfold thickness
it is method of feeding the baby ,for the full fill of nutritional requirement ,if mother milk is not available . it is vital for maintaining the nutritional level in baby.
Weighing of the child at regular intervals, the plotting of that weight on a graph (called a growth chart) enabling one to see changes in weight, and giving advice to the mother based on this weight change is called ‘GROWTH MONITORING’

HEALTHY EATING What can I eat?
Diabetes education classes can assist people with diabetes in gaining knowledge about the effect of food on blood glucose, sources of carbohydrates and fat, appropriate meal planning and resources to assist in making food choices. Skills taught include reading labels, planning and preparing meals, measuring foods for portion control, fat control and carbohydrate counting. Barriers, such as environmental triggers and emotional, financial, and cultural factors, are also addressed.
Service providers who receive high nutrition risk referrals, particularly Registered Dietitians, need to be knowledgeable about general and clinical pediatric nutrition as well as counselling skills for working with families and children.
This is the first of five self-directed training modules available in PowerPoint presentations that have been developed and evaluated to respond to this need
A pesticide is a substance that disrupts or kills organisms that we consider to be pests such as weeds, damaging insects, or microbes that cause disease.
Any substance or mixture of substances, intended for preventing, destroying, or mitigating any pest, or intended for use as a plant growth regulator, defoliant or desiccant.
Pest- it is any animal, plant or microorganism that trouble, injuries or cause destruction of crop.
Methods of pest control-
They have two types- natural and artificial pest control.
Natural pest control- they are prepared in nature due to prey- predator relationships.
Beneficial insects are those insects which prey on harmful insects or their larvae.
Artificial pest control- these are man mede methods to control pest.
They have following types
In agricultural production the synthetic pesticides are used which has got sometimes carcinogenic, teratogenic and residual toxic effects.
The excessive use of it also causes serious health hazards to live stocks, human life, wild life, fishes, birds and animals.
mechanical- manual or mechanical method for collection or destruction of pest. Eg.handpicking, pruning, trapping, burning for destruction of eggs, larvae, pupae, insects
Agriculture control- these methods are used to destroy life cycle of pest
eg deep ploughing for eradication of weeds, alternate crop rotation, hybrid pest resistance crop species
Chemical control- these are chemicals used to kill pest
eg. insecticides, paraciticides
Biological control- Living organisms are used to control pest.
Eg microorganisms may be used to kill by causing fatal disease in insects
Classification of pesticides
Pesticides are classified according to the pest they control
Insecticides (Ants, moths, cockroaches)
Herbicides (Weeds)
Fungicides (Control fungal diseases)
Rodenticides (Rats)
Growth and development is a very important aspect of childcare. understanding growth and development enhances the ability of the child healthcare provider to properly attend to the needs of the children under his/her care. The concept of growth and development helps with early detection of both medical, social and psychological problems in a child. it makes for early intervention in child healthcare.
assessment monitoring g & d of child.pptxittielarathi
In the context of childhood development, growth is defined as an irreversible constant increase in size, and development is defined as growth in psychomotor capacity. Both processes are highly dependent on genetic, nutritional, and environmental factors. Development refers to functional or behavioral changes. Growth is biological. Development is social, emotional, cognitive, moral, and other domains of function.Human development is a lifelong process of physical, behavioral, cognitive, and emotional growth and change. In the early stages of life—from babyhood to childhood, childhood to adolescence, and adolescence to adulthood—enormous changes take place. Throughout the process, each person develops attitudes and values that guide choices, relationships, and understanding. Sexuality is also a lifelong process. Infants, children, teens, and adults are sexual beings. Just as it is important to enhance a child’s physical, emotional, and cognitive growth, so it is important to lay the foundation for a child’s sexual growth. Adults have a responsibility to help young people understand and accept their evolving sexuality. Growth and development includes not only the physical changes that occur from infancy to adolescence, but also some of the changes in emotions, personality, behavior, thinking and speech that children develop as they begin to understand and interact with the world around them. Skills such as taking a first step or smiling for the first time are called developmental milestones.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
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.
3. It is one of the best criteria for assessment of growth and a
good indicator of health and nutritional status of child.
Weight of the full term neonate at birth is 2.5 to 3.8 kg.
There are about 10% loss of weight during first week of life,
which regains by 10 days of age.
4. Then, weight gain is about 25 to 30 gram per day for the first 3 months
and 400 g per month till one year of age.
After that, the weight gain follows an average pattern.
The infants doubled their birth weight by 5 months of age, trebled by
one year, four times by two years, 5 times by 3 years, six times by 5
years, 7 times by 7 years and 10 times by 10 years of age. Then weight
increases rapidly during the puberty followed by gradual maturation to
adult size.

Weight For Height is calculated by:
Weight of child X 100
Weight corresponding to height of child
9. Body Mass Index (BMR Index)
• It is used to determine if children are overweight, obese or
underweight.
BMI = (weight/height²) X 100
• If the value is less than 0.15, it indicates malnutrition. This
remains constant upto 5 years of age.
10. Height Or Linear Growth Or Length
• Height refers to the measurement taken when the child stands upright.
It occurs as a result of skeletal growth and it is a stable measurement of
general growth. Maximum rate of growth in length occurs before birth.
• Maximum rate of growth in length occurs before birth.
• When height is measured in supine(lying) position, it is called length.
• Special length can be measured such as sitting height
11. Digital Scale For Checking Weight And Length
Till the child is 24 to 36 months of age, measure recumbent length. Keep the child
in fully extended position by holding the head in midline, grasping the knees
together gently, and extending the knees by gently pushing down on the knees on a
bed or a measuring board.
Measure the length by placing the child on a paper or colorless cloth – covered
surface. Mark the end points of the top of the head and heels of the feet and measure
between these points. Keep the head in midline. Position the feet with the toes
pointing upwards.
12.
13. 2. HEIGHT
• It refers to the measurement taken when the child stands
upright..
• Remove the shoes, make the child stand as straight as possible,
head in midline looking straight. Child stands with the back to
the wall with shoulders, buttocks and heel touching the wall.
14. Weech’s formula for the estimation of height in children.
At birth: 50 cm
1 year: 75 cm
2 to 12 years: (age in years X 6) +77cm
OR
(age in years X 2) + 30 inches
15.
16. 3. Head Circumference
• It is measured by using a tape that does not stretch. Measure the head
circumference until the child is 3 years of age and in any age when the head size
is questionable. The maximal circumference of the head is measured by placing
the tape measure over the eyebrows or supraorbital ridges and pinna of the ear
anteriorly and over the occipital prominence posteriorly.
• Newborn’s head circumference (33-35 cm) is larger than the chest circumfernec
by 2-3cm.
• Head and chest circumferneces exceeds head circumference by 5-7cm.
19. 4. CHEST CIRCUMFERENCE
It is measured at the level of nipple line at midrespiration. Place
the tape measure at right angles to the vertebral column.
Newborn’s chest circumference is 31-33cm.
20. 5. ABDOMINAL CIRCUMFERNECE
Keep the child in recumbent position. Place the tape measure at
the level of umbilicus at right angles to the vertebral column.
Check the measurements as indicated. Abdomen of children upto
3 years of age who have chronic intestinal problems are
measured.
22. 1. MIDARM CIRCUMFERENCE AND
SKINFOLD THICKNESS
Arm circumference is an indirect measure of muscle mass. Measure the midpoint of
the arm with a tape or paper. Place the tape vertically from acromion process of
scapula along the posterior aspect of upper arm to the olecranon process. Half of the
measured length is the midpoint. Check the circumference in that area
• Normal: Above 13.5 cm
• Moderate PEM: 12.5-13.5 cm
• Severe PEM: below 12.5 cm
23. 2. SKINFOLD THICKNESS
• It is the measure of the body fat.
• It is measured with special calipers such as lauge calipers.
• Common sites are triceps, subscapula, abdomen, upper thigh
and suprailiac.
24. 3. KANAWATI INDEX(KI)
Useful for detecting protein energy malnutrition in children between 4 months and 4
years.
KI = Mid arm circumference
Head circumference
Normal : > 0.32
Mid undernutrition: > 0.28-0.32
Moderate undernutrition: 0.25 – 0.28
Severe undernutrition: > 0.25
25. 4. ARM SPAN
When both arms are spread apart, the distance between the tips of the
middle fingers is measured as arm span.
In young children, it is 1-2 cm less than the height.
It equals the height at 10 years and afterwards it is about 1-2 cm more
than the height.
26. Bone Age Or Skeletal Maturity
• Radiological examination of bones is used for the assessment of
maturity.
• Usually, radiological examination of wrist and elbow is done to assess
bone age (1-13 years).
• For infants (3-9 months), radiograph of shoulder is useful.
27. Dental development
• The foundation of the child’s tooth structure are formed early in fetal life itself.
• At birth, all deciduous and the first permanent teeth (6 years) are developed in the child’s jaw and covered by a
fleshy gum.
• Individual variation is there in the ages of dentition.
• All 20 deciduous teeth appear by 2 ½ years of age.
• Prior to the eruption of permanent teeth – 6 years molars – a dormant period occurs during which all the permanent
teeth grow and mature and the roots of baby teeth gradually get absorbed and disappear.
• Permanent teeth erupts in the order of MIPCM (Molars I, Incisors, premolars, canines, molars I and II).
• Molar is the first one to erupt.
• Growth chart is designed to show the changes in the height and weight as the child grows.
29. ASSESSMENT OF DEVELOPMENT
• Development is a process of acquiring variety of competencies for the optimal
functioning in the society.
• Development is a qualitative as well a quantitative change.
• If developmental delay is recognized early, intervention to reduce long term
sequel can be started.
• It is important to monitor growth and development at every stage.
• A child is said to have developmental delay if the child does not reach the
expected developmental milestones for the age.
30. Purposes of developmental assessment
• To determine if any developmental delay exists.
• To identify strengths and needs.
• To develop strategies foe intervention.
• To serve as a basis for reporting to parents.
• To determine the progress on significant developmental
achievements.
31. ASSESSMENT OF DEVELOPMENT
• Compare the achievements listed for normal children with developmental history and physical examination
findings.
• Children are observed for their activities.
• Seven areas of development are:
Physical
Psychosexual
Cognitive
Temperament
Social
Emotional
Moral
32. DATA COLLECTION
Assessment of development can be done by comparing the
achievement listed for normal children with the history and
physical findings of the child.
If any impairment, disability or handicap, which are disorders
of development, exist, they should be noted in the history.
For preterm babies, the corrected age must be taken into
account.
Do not look at the weakness alone. Look for the strengths also.
33. Parents also can be made to assist the nurse while
doing the assessment.
They can observe the child daily and give relevant
information to the nurse as needed.
Behavior made by the child should be recorded
accurately and specifically.
Assessment of development is done on a serial
basis.
After the baseline data are collected, compare it
with subsequent examinations.
35. 1. GESELL DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE
This scale by Gesell provides an estimate in four major areas of development, such as
motor, adaptive, language and personal social.
During the first year, development is assessed every week, then every two weeks till two
years and every six months till five years of age.
Scale gives development quotient (DQ) for each area separately and it also gives overall
DQ.
DQ = Maturity age X 100
Chronological age
Child with DQ between 65 and 75 is at risk for development delay. It can be applied for
handicapped children satisfactorily
36. 2. The Denver Developmental Screening Test (DDST)
(Age Range 2 Weeks To 6 Years)
It was originally developed by Frankenburg and Dodds, which is revised recently. It
is simple, economic and useful test for screening developmental delaymduring
infancy and preschool period. It is a screening tool. It is not an intelligence test.
Assessment is done in four areas. Social, fine motor, language and gross motor
skills. While using the test, make each child comfortable. Explain the tasks at the
child’s level of understanding. Make sure the child listens and pays attention to each
task.
After scoring the test, interpret the results and inform the parents
37.
38. 3. The Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale
It was developed by T Berry Brazelton for assessing newborn behavior
during the first month of age. It records individual differences in the
baby. This tool can be used for normal as well as high – risk neonates
such as premature babies.
39. 4. The Bayley scale of infant development
It is used to evaluate children between 6 and 30
months of age. Three general areas such as mental,
psychomotor and behavioral development are
evaluated.
40. 5. Trivandrum development screening chart (TDSC)
This test is developed at Trivandrum (Child Development Centre,
Medical College Hospital). It is a simplified version of Bayley scale of
infant development. Since the norms for TDSC are taken from Bayley
scale, which is a universally accepted developmental scale for children
up to 30 months of age, it can be used in other states also.
41. 6. The Denver Articulation Screening Examination (DASE)
Language and speech development can be assessed by
evaluating child’s verbal ability by direct observation and
by testing. DASE is a tool to test the child’s ability to
imitate vocal sounds. This test is easy to administer as the
child is only asked to repeat 30 sound elements.
42. 7. Developmental Assessment Scale for Indian
Infants(DASII)
This tool is also based on Bayley scale of infant development.
This scale was developed by Ms. Pramila Phatak of Baroda
University. Age range is till 2.5 years. DASII consists of two
scales – mental scale and motor scale
