إن اهتمام نظم التعليم يتنامى في جميع دول العالم بمرحلة الطفولة المبكرة نتيجة الأثر الكبير للتربية في هذه المرحلة العمرية المبكرة على جميع مراحل حياة الإنسان. وبيّنت العديد من الدراسات أن الأطفال الملتحقين ببرامج تعليم الطفولة المبكرة يكون أداؤهم أفضل من غير الملتحقين بها، وتكون لديهم فرصٌ أكثر للنجاح في المدرسة، وفي الحياة بشكلٍ عام، لذلك أصبحت الرعاية المبكرة أولوية بين الآباء، والمربين، والمشرعين، والباحثين، وصناع القرار التربوي. كما أن العمل التعليمي برياض الأطفال هو جهود تعليمية منظمة مع الطفل، فإذا استقامت هذه المرحلة استقامت جميع المراحل التعليمية اللاحقة؛ لأنها هي الأساس في تنشئة الإنسان. ومعلمة رياض الأطفال هي الأساس في عملية التطوير التربوي لتنشئة الأجيال، فهي في هذه المرحلة ليست ناقلة للمعرفة؛ بل هي مبدعة، مبتكِرة لأنشطة متعددة من خلالها تساعد على تنمية جوانب الشخصية المتكاملة للطفل. لذلك ينبغي أن تمتلك المعلمة العديد من الكفايات المهنية والاحتياجات التدريبية التي تساعدها على مواجهة تحديات العصر.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

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.
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.

Editor's Notes
20 years in the future – what story are they going to tell about you?
Will you be that life changing teacher – you know the one who made all the difference in an adult’s life because you reached him or her as a child? That teacher who really prepared a child for his future as an adult? Will your school talk about the “good old days” when you were there and smile when they talk of your adventures and experiences with kids?
Of course, most of us will be forgotten by some kids. But we certainly don’t want to be that teacher who is unforgettable for another reason. Like the teacher who told my sister who is now a graphic design professor for Savannah College of Art and Design that her love of Egyptian typography would lead her nowhere. Or that teacher who made the artistic child cry and said she wouldn’t accomplish anything because science was a problem for her. (Oh, and she drew this logo!)
But even if you are that kind of teacher. You might just feel like this.
I think if we’re talking about being Future Ready, that it is worth asking – how will you be remembered? How will be remembered?
You see, even if we stop teaching right now, you and I are already in the future in the minds and hearts of the students we’ve already impacted. To see how this works, let’s travel to the past for a very true and real story about a teacher named Mrs. Scruggs and a girl named Sue.
LeBron James and his I Promise School initiative
And with what seems to be a rash of suicides of both popular people and children, we need to remember that for our vulnerable children, that things like suicide are contagious behaviors and we must handle these issues with the utmost of care.

My technology journey began somewhere around the age of 10 with the TRS-80 computer
These were the days of the Command Line Interface or CLI
And eventually played games like this that became a little bit more graphical and really thought we had it made when we
Were able to play games like Monkey island
Then, the Graphical User Interface was invented at Xerox PARC and we began having devices like the computer I took to Georgia Tech in 1987 – the Macintosh SE
With a lovely little control panel like this
And eventually when color came along we were starting to play games like this.
We need to help students realize they have a future.
Two weeks a go I was at the US Army War College and they were talking about economic challenges in the world. One of the topics of conversation was economics and the problem when factories and people relocate overseas that the people who lost the jobs don’t move. Then, they said something that stunned me.
“We need more people creating startups because startups don’t relocate overseas and that will help our country be economically stable and independent.” But then I remembered some charts I’ve seen.
First, there’s this one that shows how man in our workforce need a college degree.
We need to help students realize they have a future.
We need to help students realize they have a future.
To be future ready, our students need to have integrity to do the tasks and build trustworthy relationships. They need to be undeceivable, unbribable people who pay their bills, show up for work and are careful to make sure that they share the truth and are not deceived by those who wish to harm us, our country, or our communities.
