Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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. Pilots Darius and Girėnas
Steponas Darius and Stasys Girėnas
were Lithuanian pilots, emigrants to the
United States, who made a significant flight in
the history of world aviation. On July 15, 1933,
they flew across the Atlantic Ocean, covering a
distance of 3,984 miles (6,411 kilometers)
without landing, in 37 hours and 11 minutes
(107.1 mph).
They did not have navigational equipment and
flew under unfavorable weather conditions, the
flight was one of the most precise in aviation
history.
3. Lituanica
Lituanica was a Pacemaker airplane flown
from the United States across the Atlantic
Ocean by Lithuanian pilots Steponas
Darius and Stasys Girėnas in 1933. After
successfully flying 6,411 km (4,043 miles),
it crashed, due to undetermined
circumstances, 650 km (404 miles) from its
destination, Kaunas, Lithuania.
Lituanica carried the first Transtlantic air
mail consignment in history.
4. Flight
After taking off from Floyd Bennet Field in New York on July 15, 1933, 6:24
AM Darius and Girėnas successfully crossed the Atlantic, only to perish on July 17,
0:36 AM by the village of Kuhdamm, near Soldin, Germany (now Pszczelnik,
near Myslibarz, Poland). The planned route was: New York -Newfoundland - Atlantic
Ocean - Ireland - London - Amsterdam - Swinemunde - Konigsberg - Kaunas airport (a
total of 7,186 km). Due to weather conditions over Ireland, they veered to the north
and reached Germany via Scotland and the North Sea. In 37 hours and 11 minutes,
until the moment of the crash, they had flown 6411 km, only 636 km short of their goal
— Kaunas.
5. Possible reasons of the crash
It is supposedly that the catastrophe
occurred due to difficult weather
conditions combined with engine defects.
Some sources mention pilot error, but
both pilots were highly experienced.
During his career as pilot, Darius had
never been involved in any previous
accidents. In 1931, Girėnas had won first
prize in a flight festival in Chicago for
gliding his plane and landing with a dead
engine.
6. Possible reasons of the crash
The crash probably was a result of failed
emergency landing. There were rumors
and suspicions that the plane was shot
down, having been mistaken for a spy
plane, because it flew near a
concentration camp. Autopsies of pilots
revealed no signs of bullets. However,
not all parts of the plane were returned
to the Lithuanian government.
7. After the crash
On July 19, a German Deruluft airplane
carried the bodies of the pilots back to
Lithuania. The people of Kaunas met
the heroes in great sorrow. The funeral
was a solemn occasion and was the
cause of official national mourning.
The pilots' bodies rest in the Military
Cemetery of Šančiai, Kaunas.
8. Memorials
An ordinary unmodified plane of this size cannot cover a comparable distance,
even today. Pilots' trip, their tragic death has become a source of poets, writers,
painters, sculptors, musicians inspiration.
