The document discusses the structure and composition of the Earth's interior and surface relief features. It describes the Earth as having a crust, mantle, and core based on its composition. The crust and upper mantle make up the lithosphere which is divided into tectonic plates. Plate tectonics and the actions of external erosional forces shape the Earth's surface relief features such as mountains, plains, and coastal landforms. Volcanic activity, folding, and faulting create different types of mountains during plate collisions and movements.
Flowing water has the ability to dissolve the soluble mineral substances available on its way. The processes enacted by streams are called as fluvial processes. The word “fluvius” is derived from the latin word meaning “ river”. The world fluvial is used to denote the running water as streams or rivers. Fluvial processes entail the erosion, transportation, and deposition of earth materials by running water. Fluvial processes and fluvial landforms dominate land surfaces the world over, as opposed to the limited effects of glacial, coastal, and wind processes.
This is my second presentation. Me and my friend created this presentation. This presentation tropic is Indian shoreline classification. So all people watch this tropic and comment my fault for this tropic. And comments for new tropic name so i am help for help for any geography subject related tropic. THANK YOU

World Geography
The rocky ball that forms our world is one of nine planets in the Solar System. Earth is a sphere, with a
slight bulge in the middle at the Equator, and a diameter of 12,756 km (7,926 miles). It hurtles at speeds
of 105,000 kph (65,000 mph) during its orbit around the Sun, turning on its AXIS once every 24 hours.
This journey takes a year to complete. The Earth is the only planet that is known to support life, in a zone
called the BIOSPHERE.
UNIQUE PLANET
Water, oxygen, and energy from the Sun combine on Earth to help create suitable conditions for life.
The planet’s surface is mainly liquid water, which is why it looks blue from space. Earth is the only planet
in the Solar System with an atmosphere that contains a large amount of oxygen. The Sun is 150 million
km (93 million miles) away, producing heat that is bearable on Earth.
ATMOSPHERE
The atmosphere is a layer of gas surrounding the Earth that is some 700 km (400 miles) thick. It is made
up of nitrogen (78 per cent) and oxygen (21 per cent), plus traces of other gases. Tiny droplets of water
vapour form the clouds we see.
OCEANS
Oceans cover 70.8 per cent of the Earth’s surface, to an average depth of 3.5 km (2 miles). The
hydrosphere (watery zone) also includes freshwater rivers and lakes, but these make up less than 1 per
cent of Earth’s water.
LAND
Dry land occupies 29.2 per cent of the Earth’s surface, where the lithosphere (rocky crust) rises above
sea level to form seven continents and countless smaller islands. Land can be categorised into biomes
major habitats such as forests, grasslands, and deserts.
ICE AND SNOW
The cryosphere (frozen zone) includes snow and glaciers on high mountains, sea ice, and the huge ice caps
that cover the landmasses of Greenland and the Antarctic. In the past, during long cold eras called ice
ages, ice covered much more of Earth’s surface than it does today.
EARTH SCIENCE
Meteorology, the study of Earth’s atmosphere, is one of the Earth sciences. Earth scientists study Earth’s
physical characteristics, from raindrops to rivers and the rocks beneath our feet. Other branches of study
include geology (rocks), hydrology, (oceans and freshwater), and ecology (living things and the
environment).
STUDY TECHNIQUES
Satellite images allow scientists to monitor everything from ocean currents to minerals hidden below
ground. Techniques such as radar and sonar have transformed our understanding of our planet. Some
Earth scientists also spend time in the field, which means working outdoors, collecting data and samples
from clouds, cliffs, craters, volcanic lava, and deep-buried ice.
BIOSPHERE
The biosphere is the part of Earth that contains what is needed for living things. This zone extends from
the ocean floor to top of the troposphere (lower atmosphere). Tiny organisms can survive deep in the
Earth’s crust, but most forms of life are found from a few hundred metres below sea level to about 1,000
m (3,300 ft) above sea level.

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.
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.
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. Stop and Think: What Would Earth Look Like if We Could Look Inside?
4. According to its composition:
Crust: Between 6 and 70 km.
Mantle: It lies at a depth of 2900 km approximately.
Core: Lies at a depth between 2900 and 6370 km. It is
divided in external and internal core.
According to its rigidity:
Lithosphere: Composed by the crust and the upper
mantle, thickness of around 100 km.
Mesosphere: Inner mantle. Composed by magma.
Endosphere: It coincides with the core.
9. TECTONIC PLATES/ PLACAS TECTÓNICAS
The lithosphere (crust and the upper mantle)
is divided into tectonic plates (placas
tectónicas), which are blocks that float on
top of the molten materials in the mantle.
The scientific study of the movements and
changes of the lithosphere is called plate
tectonics (tectónica de placas).
10.
11.
12. The tectonic plates can be:
Continental plates (formed only by emerged lands).
Oceanic plates (formed by the lithosphere of the
ocean floor).
Mixed plates (formed by continental and oceanic
lithosphere).
The edges of the plates are zones of contact and
of greater instability of the crust.
13.
14. RELIEF FORMATION
The Earth’s relief consists of the natural forms and
features that make up the surface of the planet.
They are formed by:
Plate tectonics.
The action of external agents which change and shape
them.
15.
16. OROGENESIS
It is the process of formation of the Earth’s
relief by the action of internal forces of the
Earth.
Orogenesis’ processes:
Volcanic mountain formation.
Fault blocks.
Folding
17. VOLCANIC MOUNTAIN FORMATION
Movimiento divergente o de separación
It occurs when two tectonic plates separate.
In the separation line a ridge (dorsal) is created.
Magma erupts from there, when it gets cold and
solidifies, mountain ranges and volcanic cones are
formed.
18. OROGENIA VOLCÁNICA
Se genera cuando dos placas tectónicas se
separan y dan origen a una zona de volcanes.
A través de ellos emergen los materiales
fundidos del manto. Cuando se solidifican
forman cordilleras y conos volcánicos.
19. FAULT BLOCKS
Movimiento convergente o de choque:
It occurs when forces on blocks of hard materials
which cannot fold.
These forces produce earthquakes.
20. OROGENIA POR FALLA
Se forman al colisionar dos placas formadas
por materiales duros, no pueden plegarse, se
fracturan y producen terremotos.
Bloques levantados y hundidos.
21. FOLDING
Movimiento convergente o de choque:
It occurs when two tectonic plates with edges
made of relatively soft materials collide. The
edges of the plates fold and rise, creating large
mountains.
22. OROGENIA POR PLEGAMIENTO
Se produce al chocar dos placas tectónicas
constituidas por materiales blandos. Da lugar
a grandes montañas
23. DERIVA CONTINENTAL
Es una teoría que defiende que hace millones
de años todos los continentes se hallaban
unidos en un continente único (Pangea).
El continente se dividió inicialmente en dos:
Laurasia y Gondwana (hace unos 150 millones
de años).
Estas masas se fracturaron hasta que se
formaron los actuales continentes.
27. Elevated landforms are modified by the
action of external agents.
The main external agents are: water, wind,
temperatura and living beings.
28.
29. Processes that shape the relief:
Erosion
Disintegration of relief shapes by the external
agents.
Transport
Movement of the eroded materials.
Deposition
Deposit of transported materials.
30.
31. WATER EROSION
Pluvial It is caused by rainwater. Rainwater wears
away the materials that are dragged by rivers and
streams.
Glacial It is caused by glaciers. Glaciers are masses
of ice that move very slowly. They erode the surface
and deposit sediment, forming moraines.
Coastal caused by the movement of the sea, such
as waves, tides and currents. The sea shapes the
coasts, forming cliffs or depositing materials on the
beaches.
Fluvial Caused by rivers. It may form valleys and
canyons.
32.
33.
34.
35.
36.
37. WIND EROSION
It is caused by particles carried by the wind. The
sediment transported by the wind is then deposited,
forming piles of sand or dunes.
38. TEMPERATURE EROSION
Freezing and thawing
erosion is caused by water
penetrating the crack son
rocky surfaces.When the
water freezes, its volumen
increases producing bigger
cracks in the earth and
rocks.
39. BIOLOGICAL EROSION
It is caused by living things.
For example, plants break the soil with their
roots.
Animals erode the soil when they build their
dens.
Human activity is the most significant agents
in shaping the Earth’s surface.Through the
use of technology and heavy machinery, we
shape the Earth according to our needs.

65. Coastal relief is located in areas where the
emerging land is in contact with the sea.
If the continental area is flat and has a low altitude
dominated by beaches.
If the continental area is mountainous cliffs.
They can be different forms: beaches, capes,
gulfs, peninsulas, inlets and fjords, islands and
archipelagos…
79. INLETS/FJORDS
Strip of sea that penetrates the earth, taking
advantage of the mouth of a river. If you take
advantage of a glacier, it is a fjord.
90. MARSH / MARISMA
A marshy ground located below sea level,
which has been invaded by the sea or an
estuary.
91.
92.
93. Ocean relief landforms are located at great
depths under the sea.
Distintas formas: plataforma continental,
talud continental, llanuras abisales, dorsales
oceánicas y fosas oceánicas.
96. CONTINENTAL SLOPES / TALUD CONTINENTAL
Sharp end of the continental shelf, as a step.
97. OCEAN BASINS / LLANURAS ABISALES
Seabed composed of large plains between
3000 and 6000 meters deep.
98. OCEAN RIDGE / DORSAL OCEÁNICA
Great submarine mountain range located in the
middle of the oceans in the abyssal plains. They
are created by a great crack where magma from
the mantle appears.
101. OCEAN TRENCH / FOSA MARINA
They are great underground depressions located
along the edges of ocean basins. They are the
deepest areas of the planet. The deepest ocean
trench is that of the Marianas with 11,033 meters
of depth.
104. THE CONTINENTS OF THE EARTH
Earth:
Marine and oceanic water 70%
Land 30%
105.
106. Most of the emerging lands Continents.
Continent: large areas of land surrounded by marine waters.
In addition to continents, there are islands, which are
emerged lands, but smaller.
The continents are: Asia, Africa, America, Europe,Antarctica
and Oceania.
107.
108. Europa y Asia formarían un conjunto:
Eurasia. Se consideran independientes.
La mayor parte de los continentes se sitúa en
el hemisferio norte y en el hemisferio
occidental.
