Dr. Everett discusses amnesia with host Rob Saunders, explaining that there are two types - organic caused by brain damage, and functional caused by psychological trauma. Amnesia does not cause one to forget their identity, but rather causes loss of some memory functions. Films often inaccurately portray amnesia as making one forget everything new each day, when in reality sufferers may repeat themselves or get confused, not lose all daily memory. While some films show amnesia suddenly disappearing, in reality there are no effective treatments, and people must learn to live with the condition using memory aids and training.
About brain, dreaming and dreams recall DOR Academy
When we sleep, we go through five sleep stages. The first stage is a very light sleep from which it is easy to wake up. The second stage moves into a slightly deeper sleep, and stages three and four represent our deepest sleep. Our brain activity throughout these stages is gradually slowing down so that by deep sleep, we experience nothing but delta brain waves – the slowest brain waves.

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Facts about Amnesia
Rob: Good afternoon. I’m Rob Saunders, host of Behind the Camera. My guest today is Dr Mary Everett.
Good to have you here, Dr Everett.
Dr Everett: It’s a pleasure to be here.
Rob: Being a neurologist, you specialise in disorders of the nervous system, correct?
Dr Everett: Yes – and that also includes disorders of the brain.
Rob: So you’re the perfect person to ask about a medical condition that’s often portrayed in film and television –
amnesia. That’s when a person can’t remember who he is, or retain any new memories at all.
Dr Everett: Well, that’s the Hollywood version of amnesia, Rob – and although it can be the basis for funny, tragic or
dramatic stories, it’s really not very accurate.
Rob: Why not, Dr Everett?
Dr Everett: Well – you see, amnesia doesn’t cause people to forget their identity. What amnesia does cause is a loss of
some memory functions after brain damage or a traumatic event.
Rob: What can cause amnesia?
Dr Everett: Actually, there are two types of amnesia. Organic amnesia is a result of brain damage – let’s say having been
caused by a severe head injury in a car accident, or a lack of oxygen in the brain during a heart attack. This
kind of brain damage can cause what’s called “organic amnesia”.
Rob: So, organic amnesia is caused by something physical.
Dr Everett: Yes, that’s correct. But amnesia caused by a traumatic psychological event – such as a violent attack – is called
functional, or traumatic, amnesia. In these cases, there’s no actual physical brain damage.
Rob: Now, I’m curious about the accuracy of the film 50 First Dates, in which an amnesia victim falls in love.
Dr Everett: Well, I love romantic comedies, but this film …
Rob: Before you continue, let me summarise the film for listeners who haven’t seen it. The character played by
actress Drew Barrymore can’t retain any new memories since being injured in a car accident. She falls in love
with Adam Sandler’s character, but loses her memories of him overnight, every night. So Dr Everett, is that
a realistic portrayal of organic amnesia?
Dr Everett: No. Amnesia sufferers don’t consistently forget everything new, or the same thing over and again at the same
time every day. If you want to see a more realistic portrayal of amnesia, watch the animated film Finding
Nemo. One of the characters, a fish called Dory, has got amnesia. She often repeats herself, which annoys the
other fish. She also becomes confused about where she’s going or why she’s doing something, and has trouble
remembering new things and names. This is a more accurate portrayal of someone suffering from amnesia.
Rob: What about the film The Bourne Identity? Bourne, played by Matt Damon, is a spy and assassin who forgets
who he is and is said to have amnesia. However, you previously mentioned that people with amnesia don’t lose
their sense of identity.
Dr Everett: That’s right. And in my opinion, which is shared by many of my colleagues who are also film fans, Bourne
hasn’t got amnesia. Instead, he has a rare and complex disorder that shares some symptoms with functional
amnesia. But most neurologists wouldn’t label Bourne’s disorder as amnesia.
Rob: I see. Now, in films, amnesia sometimes suddenly disappears. Can that really happen?
Dr Everett: Yes – sometimes the condition improves, and even disappears, on its own. But if it doesn’t, there are no
effective amnesia treatments or medications. People must learn to live with the disorder.
Rob: So how do amnesia sufferers live with their condition?
Dr Everett: Many consult specialists in memory training to learn techniques to improve their memory and ability to retain
new information. And obviously, most people with amnesia make a lot of notes in calendars, notebooks and on
their mobile phones, and sometimes even take photos to help them remember things.
Rob: It sounds like a difficult way to live … and I think we’ll all now remember the reality of amnesia the next time
we see it portrayed in a film. We’re out of time. Dr Everett, thanks for being here. The news is next …
