This document discusses burns and scalds, including definitions, causes, types, classifications, effects, and first aid treatment. Burns are damage to skin from heat, radiation, chemicals or electricity. They can be thermal, radiation, chemical or electrical burns. Burns are classified as first, second or third degree depending on skin layer damage. First aid involves cooling the burn, not removing stuck clothing, covering the burn, and seeking immediate help for severe burns. Prevention methods like avoiding unattended cooking and keeping hot items from children can reduce burn risks.

The simplified electron and muon model, Oscillating Spacetime: The Foundation...RitikBhardwaj56
Discover the Simplified Electron and Muon Model: A New Wave-Based Approach to Understanding Particles delves into a groundbreaking theory that presents electrons and muons as rotating soliton waves within oscillating spacetime. Geared towards students, researchers, and science buffs, this book breaks down complex ideas into simple explanations. It covers topics such as electron waves, temporal dynamics, and the implications of this model on particle physics. With clear illustrations and easy-to-follow explanations, readers will gain a new outlook on the universe's fundamental nature.
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.
2. ABOUT MYSELF
I AM THATO LEBONA, A THIRD YEAR STUDENT-TEACHER AT LESOTHO
COLLEGE OF EDUCATION THABA-TSEKA CAMPUS. MY PRESENTATION
IS ALL ABOUT BURNS AND SCALDS.
3. DEFINITION OF BURNS AND SCALDS
Burns and scalds: Are damage to the skin caused by heat. Both(burns and scalds)
are treated in the same way.
Burns are tissue damage that results from heat, overexposure to the sun or other
radiation, or chemicals or electrical contact.
4. CAUSES OF BURNS
Fire
Hot liquid or steam
Hot metals, glass or other objects
Electrical current
Radiation, such as that from the X-rays
Sunlight
Chemicals such as strong acids
5. TYPES OF BURNS
Thermal burns
Radiation burns
Chemical burns
Electrical burns
6. TYPES OF BURNS (DEFINITIONS)
Thermal burns
are the burns that are due to heat sources which raise the temperature of the skin and tissue cell death or charring.
Hot metals, steam, and flames, when coming into contact with the skin, can cause thermal burns.
Radiation burns:
These burns are due to exposure to ultraviolet rays of the sun, or to other sources of radiation such as the x-ray.
Chemical burns
They are due to strong acids, detergents, or solvents coming into contacts with the skin.
Electrical burns
are those burns that are from electrical current, either alternating current or direct current.
7. CLASSIFICATION OF BURNS
First degree burns(superficial burns)
Second degree burns (partial thickness)
Third degree burn (full thickness)
8. FIRST DEGREE BURNS(SUPERFICIAL BURNS)
They affect only the outermost layer of the skin called the epidermis. Area affected will be red and very painful.
Sunburn can be one of the examples of first degree burn.
9. SECOND DEGREE BURNS (PARTIAL BURNS)
They affect the epidermis and the underlying layer of the skin called the dermis. It is extremely
painful and the area will be red, peeling and swelling with the clear or yellow-colored fluid.
10. THIRD DEGREE BURNS(FULL THICKNESS)
They affect all layers of the skin and may even damage underlying tissues such as muscle and bones. It is relatively
painless due to nerve damage. Burn site appears to be black or charred with white exposed fatty tissue.
11. EFFECTS OF BURNS
Pain and discomfort
Infection
Damage to tissues, nerves or organs
Swelling and inflammation
Difficulty in breathing, if the burn affects the airway
Blisters
Burns damage the skin’s protective barrier, therefore bacteria and any foreign attackers may easily sneak in.
Sometimes burn can lead to bone and joint problems.
12. FIRST AID FOR BURNS
Remove the source of heat or chemical causing the burns to ensure safety.
For thermal burns, cool affected area with cool running water for at least 10-20 minutes to help reduce pain and
reduce tissue damage.DO NOT USE ICE OR VERY COLD WATER because it can actually cause further
damage to the skin.
Remove any clothing around the burnt area not unless it is stuck to the skin.
13. FIRST AID FOR BURNS (CONT.)
Cover the burn with a clean cloth or sterile cloth to protect it from infection
If blisters form, do not pop them as they serve a natural barrier against infection.
If the burn is severe, affects the face, hands, feet, genitals, or a very large area of unconsciousness, call
emergency services immediately for help.
14. PREVENTION OF THE BURNS
By reducing the risk of common household burns:
People should not leave items cooking on the stove unattended
Turn pot handles towards the rear of the stove
Keep hot liquids, chemicals and fire out of reach of children
Keep electrical appliances away from water
15. CONCLUSION
Burns and scalds should be taken seriously due to their potential for pain, disability, and
complications. By providing immediate first aid, seeking medical attention when
necessary, and taking preventive measures, the risk of burns and scalds can be
significantly reduced, promoting the well-being and safety of individuals.
