The BBFC regulates music video content in the UK by assigning age ratings of 12, 15, or 18 based on factors like drug use, dangerous behavior, sexual content, violence, and language. They partner with YouTube and Vevo to apply these ratings to music videos online. The goal is to help parents control what their children are exposed to. An example given is Frankie Goes to Hollywood's "Relax" video from 1984, which was controversial for its sexual imagery and banned by the BBC and MTV at the time, though the banning backfired by increasing its popularity.

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 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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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. What Is Regulation?
Regulation is the idea that content should be given specific guidelines in order to protect younger
audiences from explicit content and ideas. Regulation is controlled by the BBFC who set certain standards
and ratings for different age groups who they believe should be exposed to content specific to their age
via age ratings and certification.
YouTube and Vevo work in partnership with the BBFC on pilot schemes to age rate all music videos and
artists who are signed to Sony Music UK, Universal Music UK and Warner Music UK. The certificates these
companies are looking to apply to online music video content, are 12, 15, and 18. It is expected that
children below the age of 12 should be regulated by their parents and their consent, not by online
platforms.
It was put forward that these rating should appear on smartphones and apps as well as internet use on
the computer.
3. What Do The BBFC Regulate?
The BBFC regulate many different aspects of music videos. The sort of issues the BBFC considers in
classifying music videos include:
• drug misuse
• dangerous behaviour presented as safe
• bad language
• sexual behaviour and nudity
• threatening behaviour and violence
These aspects are wholly considered for the safety of children and their exposure on the internet. The
idea of censoring these categories comes from the regulation of films and how they are age rated in the
cinema.

4. Example…
An example of a music video that should have perhaps been regulated by the BBFC was Frankie Goes To Hollywood,
‘’Relax’’. Although before the time of regulation, the music video contained content that was not acceptable for
daytime viewing and for the eyes of children. The Frankie Goes To Hollywood music video was banned by the BBC in
1984 banning it on TV and all of their radio outlets. Similarly, MTV also banned the music video as they believed it to
be inappropriate.
At the time, the music video was massively controversial and depicted areas of sexuality that were not commonly
talked about as part of every day life. The content of the video displayed many ideas that were not seen as ‘’the norm’’
or comfortable within society at the time, however banning the video had the opposite effect to what was expected.
Banning the video ultimately led to it becoming number 1 in the Top 40 charts due to its censorship becoming the
advertisement for the single.
