The document outlines the curriculum of behavioral sciences taught at UHS to medical students over the first three years. It details the textbook used, topics covered including introduction to psychology, medical ethics, and psychosocial aspects of health. Assessment includes a 200-point exam in third year comprising multiple choice questions, short essays, and oral/clinical stations evaluating psychosocial assessment and communication skills. The implementation faces issues like lack of trained faculty and standardized teaching across colleges.
Assessment strategies, Neuropsychological Assessment for inpatient and outpatient department, measurement of psychological status, psychological issues faced in rehabilitation settings, and its intervention
Mental health professions
Mental health providers are professionals who diagnose mental health conditions and provide treatment. Most have at least a master's degree or more-advanced education, training and credentials.
Teaching the art of communication between patient and the doctor is a major deficiency in our curriculum. Most of our young graduates don't get adequate exposure to this part of medical training. Lack of emphasis by examining authorities in developing world and additionally paucity of trainers adds to this vicious circle.

Mental Status Exam
Heidi Combs, MD
What it is it?
• The Mental Status Exam (MSE)
is the psychological equivalent
of a physical exam that
describes the mental state and
behaviors of the person being
seen. It includes both objective
observations of the clinician
and subjective descriptions
given by the patient.
Why do we do them?
• The MSE provides information for
diagnosis and assessment of
disorder and response to treatment.
• A Mental Status Exam provides a
snap shot at a point in time
• If another provider sees your patient
it allows them to determine if the
patients status has changed without
previously seeing the patient
• To properly assess the MSE
information about the patients
history is needed including
education, cultural and social
factors
• It is important to as ...

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.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.
