The guidelines provide recommendations for organizing effective visits to authentic Holocaust sites and museums. Key recommendations include carefully planning the visit and ensuring it complements classroom learning. The educator should prepare students and structure activities to help students learn from the site by interpreting displays and having guided discussions. Follow-up work back in the classroom is important to help students process their experiences and place what they learned in broader context.

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.
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”.
1. GUIDELINES TO VISITS TO AUTHENTIC AND NON-AUTHENTIC SITES
From: The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance
http://www.holocaustremembrance.com/educate/teaching-guidelines
1. Visits to authentic and non-authentic sites create special
learning experiences and opportunities different from those in
the classroom. A visit can also raise the "status" of a subject in
the eyes of students who see that they have been taken out of
school and out of other subjects in order to make the visit.
2. Authentic sites provide a unique atmosphere, which can create
a special desire to learn and which evokes strong emotions. It is
the duty of the educator to be aware that they will be exposing
their students to these strong emotions and to take this into
account when structuring the visit.
3. Authentic sites provide opportunities for in-depth study of
particular places and moments in time.
4. It is difficult for museums to reproduce the emotional impact
that comes from a visit to an authentic site; however, students
are less likely to be overwhelmed by the strength of their
feelings and might be able to see the broader historical context.
5. The opportunity to study original artifacts can stimulate
interest, motivation, and learning and can provide a direct and
tangible link with people in the past that is difficult to replicate
in the classroom.
6. The educator has a responsibility to the students and should be
sure that a visit to an authentic site or museum is appropriate
for the age of their students. It is essential that the educator
consult with the staff of the authentic site or museum on this
matter.
7. A visit to an authentic site or to a museum should not be
considered in and of itself to be sufficient in a study of the
Holocaust. The educator must be clear about the aims of a visit
to an authentic site or museum. How will it complement,
extend, and develop classroom work?
8. It is essential that the visit is carefully planned and that the
educator contacts the site for advice when preparing the visit.
Ideally, educators will make a preliminary visit and/or attend
teacher-training seminars related to bringing students on a
study trip to the site.
9. The educator must consider when a study trip occurs in the
broader scheme of work for teaching the Holocaust, and how it
is integrated with work in the classroom. The study trip requires
preparation, the visit itself, and follow-up activities. These
2. activities should have a clear emphasis on learning the history of
the Holocaust, but might be enriched by an inter-disciplinary
approach.
10. The site should recognize its responsibility to provide educators
with advice, information, and materials for preparation and
follow-up lessons in the classroom, and the educator should
allocate sufficient time for these activities.
11. The preparation must make clear that an authentic site is a
memorial with its own history, and that a visit to that site can
involve learning not only about the past but also how that past
has been remembered and commemorated.
12. A visit to an authentic site should focus on the history of that
site. Students should actively use the site as historical evidence
to explore themes and issues that were discussed during the
pre-visit work. The visit should not be seen as only an
opportunity to answer these historical questions, but as a
stimulus for new historical, moral, and ethical questions.
13. Most students are unused to learning from museums and
authentic sites and many will not have the learning skills
necessary for these environments. Therefore, the museum and
the authentic site should facilitate students' learning during the
visit by helping students to interpret the displays. This should
take into account students' ages, different learning needs, and
varying degrees of knowledge. This might include the provision
of orientation and/or debriefing sessions, guided tours,
worksheets, audio guides, etc.
14. The educator should encourage discussion and reflection at the
site as an integral part of the visit and the authentic site or
museum should provide space and time to make this possible.
15. The follow-up work should respond to the questions raised by
the students as a result of the study trip and help them to place
what they have learned during the visit into a broader context.
