The document discusses six principles of design: alignment, balance, contrast, proximity/unity, repetition/consistency, and white space. It provides examples of each principle and links to view examples online. The principles help guide the placement of elements on a page for improved readability, navigation, and visual appeal. Additional design concepts discussed include the rule of thirds, grids, optical center, and Z-pattern reading order.

Christopher Alexander
The term design patterns was originally coined about three decades ago by Christopher Alexander, an architect and critic who envisioned a generic and modular “language” of methods to describe the process of construction and urban planning by means of recurring problems that are well-known in a specific context, and respective solutions that have been proved and tested in the past and can therefore be seen as a safe choice to tackle a certain design challenge. Although it never made its breakthrough in the field of architecture, the basic idea of design patterns was adopted by other engineering disciplines, most notably software development in the early 1990s. A second wave of success seems to have appeared recently, when several projects were launched to build up pattern libraries for digital user interfaces. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Alexander

Although Alexander’s book became a bestseller and is a de-facto standard read for architecture students until today, it received much criticism and invoked sceptical reactions among the architecture community. Looking back at it some thirty years later, Alexander’s pattern language can be described as a success story on a detour. While widely rejected by architects and urban planners, the concept was picked up by computer scientist in the late 1980s and became a huge success in the wake of the rise of object-oriented programming languages such as Java

Design Patterns can help to tackle commonly known recurring design problems with well-proven solutions. A single pattern provides a brief description of one particular design problem. This problem can be a physical attribute of an application (for instance a dropdown menu), or a functional behavior (e.g. the login dialog of a website). A pattern typically consists of a description of the problem, and a solution that has been proven before and is generally recognized. Usually, a pattern provides additional information like an example of a real-world scenario in which it has been successfully applied as well as a rationale to briefly describe the benefit the usage this patterns bears.

Week 1 Assignment Instructions
GOAL: Create the initial element of your Business Model Generation—your business Model Canvas.
Introduction: Using the Osterwalder and Pigneur Business Model Canvas as a resource (coupled with the other resources of the course), create a business model canvas of the business organization where you work. Since every organization has unique features, do your best to work at the application of the various components of the building blocks of the canvas. Show as much detail as you can so that it is evident that you comprehend the general business model of your organization. There must be a demonstration of synthesis of the procedure on your part. You may need to interview some of the management team to verify the business model details of your organization. You may also benefit from conducting an Internet search of the Business Model Canvas to become comfortable with how it works. There are many other YouTube-type videos on the web that demonstrate the use of the canvas. You will also find several good sources in the Lessons area of the course under the Reading and Resources tab of weeks 1 and 2.
Instructions: Your submittal this week will be considered as a “draft” that should consist of:
1. A Cover page that provides a general description of your organization/business:
Name of the organization (preferably your present organization/business)
Date of origination (or incorporation)
Location (as appropriate; some entities require discretion)
Brief overview of the purpose of the organization/business
Description of your relationship and role in the organization/business
Other details that enable fuller explanation (if applicable)
2. Business Model Canvas with Post-It notes (as seen in the examples). You have three options for the submission of your canvas:
· You may download and use the blank PowerPoint canvas with electronic Post-Its to create your canvas (click here), or
· You may create a Word.doc that lists the nine building blocks (clearly identify each one) and uses bulleted points in the same manner as Post-Its.
· Creation of your post-its via the following web-help site, and then submission of the resulting URL for the finished canvas. See (click on link) https://canvanizer.com/new/business-model-canvas
3. Create a memo (no particular format, but neatly presented) that describes what you learned about your organization/business as a result of creating the business model canvas.
UPLOAD your finished assignment into the Assignment page. You may consolidate the cover page and memo into one document if you use the PowerPoint method of the canvas. If you do all of the assignment as a Word.doc, then you may consolidate the entire assignment into one document; it is your call. However, Each file OF YOUR WORK should be named in the following manner: Last name–truncated Week Number-Assignment name (abbreviated if necessary)

How to select and create an effective visual for your business presentationDave Paradi
Why do so many business professionals only use bullet point slides and the standard simple graphs in their PowerPoint presentations? This slide deck explains the four reasons why this is the case for many professionals. It shares an approach that works for people like analysts, accountants, engineers, and technical experts who don’t want to become designers just to create effective presentations.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

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.
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.
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.
Teacher Note: Tell students to remember that their main purpose is to get their message across to their audience when designing desktop publications. Using repetition makes it easy for the reader to know what to expect and understand how the information is arranged in the publication.
Teacher Note: White space also includes the spacing between words, characters, lines, margins, etc. Emphasize the importance of white space to make a publication easy to read. More white space is needed for publications that are designed to be read at a distance such as flyers and posters.
Teacher Note: These concepts are used frequently in advertisements, especially magazine advertisements. Also, the Rule of Thirds is not really a rule. It is really just a suggestion. Desktop publishing publications are often divided into thirds because it is a common design that is very pleasing to the eye. It has been used so often that it has been given the name, Rule of Thirds.
Teacher Note: Look through magazines to find advertisements that illustrate the Rule of Thirds, Optical Center and Z-pattern and use these to illustrate these concepts to your students.
