The document describes key facts about the Earth, moon, eclipses, and lunar landforms. It states that the Earth orbits the sun in an elliptical path and rotates on its axis, causing day and night. The moon revolves around the Earth while the same side always faces it. Solar eclipses occur when the moon blocks the sun, and lunar eclipses happen when the Earth blocks the sun from the moon. Common lunar landforms include craters, maria (areas of hardened lava), and ray craters.
A "lunar eclipse" and a "solar eclipse" refer to events involving three celestial bodies: the Sun ("solar"), the moon ("lunar"), and the Earth. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, and the Earth's shadow obscures the moon or a portion of it. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking all or a portion of the Sun.

Our Solar System are composed of 1 star (Sun), 8 major planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), 5 dwarf planets (Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris), 566,000 asteroids and 3,100 comets. The age of our Solar System is about 4.6 billion years.

This is a presentation about our Earth's moon. It is extremely extensive and is wonderful for academic purposes. It's extremely easy to edit, and this is sure to get you that A+ you've been wanting.
Gathered from many sources of Slideshare users, some of the pictures are not ours, we give credits to the owners. Our purpose of creating this slideshare are to pass our project and to inform others as well.
Power Point notes that I use in class. I did not make this presentation. I got it from the internet, the reference is on the first page. I may have altered it from it\'s origninal state though.
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.

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.

2. THE EARTH
• The Earth moves
around the sun
in a path like a
circle that has
been pulled a
little at both
ends. This
shape is called
an ellipse.
3. • The path Earth takes
around the sun is called its
orbit. As Earth orbits the
sun, it rotates, or spins on
its axis.
• The axis is an imaginary
line that passes through
Earth’s center and its North
and South Poles.
4. • The Earth’s rotation is what causes
day and night. When a place on
Earth faces the sun, it is day in that
place. When that place faces away
from the sun, it is night.
5. THE MOON
• The Moon is the Earth’s only natural
satellite. It revolves around the Earth and
on its own axis. The same side of the
moon always faces Earth.
6. • When we see the moon at night, it’s
because sunlight is reflected off its
surface, the moon does not generate
light.
• As the moon orbits Earth, its
position in the sky changes. This
produces the different shapes, or
phases, of the moon we see each
month.
7. Solar and Lunar Eclipses
• An eclipse occurs when one
object passes through the shadow
of another.
• There are seven eclipses- two
lunar and five solar- in a single
year.
8. A solar eclipse occurs when Earth
passes through a new moon’s
shadow.
9. A lunar eclipse occurs when the full
moon passes through Earth’s
shadow.
10. The Moon’s Surface
• Lunar landforms include craters, maria, ray
craters, rifles, highlands, and volcanic domes.
• The word maria is Latin for “seas”; they are
really areas of hardened lava.
• Ray craters are thought to be new craters.
