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.

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.
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 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.

1.
2. What is …..?
First Aid – the emergency care given to a
victim of an accident or a sudden illness,
required immediately and must continue
until advanced medical help is available.
Can be simple like helping someone clean and
bandage a minor wound to performing CPR until
EMS arrives.
CPR – cardiopulmonary resuscitation
3. General Principles of First
Aid
1. Never panic!
Take a few slow deep breaths and look around to
make sure the area is safe
Determine what resources are available and what is
needed (AED, splints, EMS…)
2. Evaluate the Situation
Check the victim’s level of consciousness, open the
victim's airway and check for breathing, check for
pulse and bleeding
3. Is the victim in a safe environment,
free from more danger?
4. General Principles of First
Aid
4. Determine the Priorities of treatment
Which condition requires the most immediate care
Urgent care for life – threatening situations:
stopped breathing, heart attack, shock, serious
wounds, poisoning, serious burns
Non-life threatening issues: fracture of arm or leg,
minor contusions or lacerations (know definitions
5. Decide what care is needed and do only
what you are trained to do
Good Samaritan Law
6. Call 911 or send for help
5. Life Threatening
Situations
Obstructed Airway, choking
(closed airway, stopped or not breathing)
When an object blocks the airway leading to the
lungs
Partial obstruction – some air can be moved. Do
not interfere with coughing or try to dig out the
object
Complete obstruction – no air can be moved.
Victim is suddenly unable to breathe, cough or
speak, clutches neck, or is struggling to breathe
6. Life Threatening
Situations
Obstructed Airway, choking
(closed airway, stopped or not breathing)
What to do for a conscious victim …
1. Ask “Are you choking?”
Observe victim coughing or wheezing. Do not interfere
if good air exchange is present
2. Give abdominal thrusts….
Videos
Adult conscious
Adult unconscious
Child
7. Life Threatening
Situations
Heart Attack
Early warning signs
Squeezing feeling in the chest,
pressure, or tightness
“feels like a band is around chest”
“feels like an elephant is sitting on my
chest”
Persistent discomfort that spreads
to the shoulders, arm, neck, jaw,
or across the chest
Sweating, nausea, vomiting,
shortness of breath, or feeling
faint
8. Life Threatening
Situations
Heart Attack
What do you do?
Call for advanced life support (EMS
or doctor depending on the
setting)
Get an AED
Monitor the symptoms until help
arrives.
Heart and breathing may stop and
the patient may need CPR
9. Life Threatening
Situations
Serious Wounds
Life threatening due to heavy bleeding
Bleeding that spurts is from an artery
Venous bleeding is also serious
Victim will bleed to death if the bleeding is not
controlled
10. Life Threatening
Situations
Serious Wounds
What to do……
1. Call or send for help
2. Follow procedures for preventing shock
3. Apply direct pressure with your gloved hand and
some type of dressing or gauze pad.
A shirt or towel will work if nothing else is available
4. Elevate the wounded area if you do not think
there are broken bones
5. if these do not work apply pressure to the
appropriate pressure point above and on the same
limb of the wound
6. If the dressing becomes saturated add dry
dressing over the saturated bandage
7. When bleeding is under control slowly release
the pressure point and lower the limb, but keep
direct pressure over the dressing
12. Life Threatening
Situations
Shock
Caused by major loss of body fluid or blood causing
the body cells and major organs to be deprived of
oxygen
A person can be appropriately treated for injury but
still die of shock because of the fluid or blood loss
14. Life Threatening
Situations
Poisoning
Ingestion, inhalation, absorption, or injection of a
harmful substance
Can cause sudden collapse, vomiting, and difficult
breathing
Look around the victim for possible causes of
poisoning as you are treating him or her
An unconscious victim may be convulsing or
vomiting which is why you lay the victim on their
side
16. Life Threatening
Situations
Burns
See page 299 for pictures of severity of burns
Severity of Burns
1st degree- superficial or surface burns
2nd degree – partial thickness, deeper or just below the
surface of the skin. Blistering occurs
3rd degree – full thickness, destroys both surface and
underlying tissue, destroys nerve endings so victim
may not feel pain in that area
Burns around the nose and mouth can mean the
airway is burned
18. Non-Life Threatening
Situations
Bone Fractures
Closed fracture – a broken bone that stays
inside the body
Symptoms – swelling, pain, change in the color of
the skin, deformity
Determine mechanism of injury – did they fall, did
something fall on them? Did they hear a “snap”?
Open Fracture – when the broken bones
comes through the skin
If possible splint the affected area and call
for medical assistance
19. Dressings and Bandages
Dressings cover wounds and help keep
infectious bacteria out
Dressings are used to apply direct
pressure to control bleeding
Bandages hold dressings in place
20. Dressings and Bandages
Principles of Bandaging
Always wear gloves and follow Standard Precautions
Never tie a bandage around the neck, taping is safer
The bandage needs to be tight enough to hold the
dressing in place but not tight enough to stop
circulation
Check skin temperature. If cold then bandage may be
cutting off circulation. You should be able to fit one
finger under the bandage
21. Dressings and Bandages
Principles of Bandaging
When applying these to arms or legs leave the finders
and toes exposed so that you can watch for
discoloration and swelling
Loosen bandages if the patient complains of
numbness or tingling
Do not remove dressing once it has been applied. If
blood soaks through, add another layer of dressings
and secure the bandage
