THE CHALLENGE FOR THE 21. CENTURY Day by day we hear more disturbing news about the “Climate Change” that is happening all over the world. More and more people are getting seriously impacted by increasingly strong and more frequent hurricanes. We hear about unprecedented droughts in one area while there is severe flooding in another. People are forced to leave entire regions due to desertification of the land.
Abstract
Introduction

Tyler
Tyler (Wind Energy)
One form of alternative energy is wind energy. Just as it sounds, the wind formed from
the uneven heating of the surface of the earth. Energy from wind as actually been harnessed for
millennia as it was used for sailing large ships in the exploration of the world, windmills used for
various applications, and today we are beginning to use wind for electrical generation. One must
look at the advantages, disadvantages, environmental impacts, and the community’s perception
to see if this technology is worthwhile in our search for alternative energy.
Wind energy is collected on the individual and large-scale levels. Typically, the
homeowner, farmer, or small business complements their use of energy from the grid with the
use of wind energy. A great example of this is City Bus in Lafayette, Indiana. According to
Northern Power Systems, since the installation in July 2011, the windmills at City Bus have
generated 679,292 kilowatt hours which translates to 52,253 gallons of diesel saved or 991,766
miles driven by cars (City Bus, 2011). Also according to Northern Power Systems, City Bus has
saved 1,060,714 pounds of carbon dioxide waste. It seems that these windmills are doing an
effective job of supplementing City Bus’s use of energy.
Consumption of wind energy is much different at the large scale level though. According
to the Institute for Energy Research, only 4.4% of electrical generation in the U.S. is wind
energy (Wind – IER, 2015). So why is wind energy such a small part of electrical generation in
the United States? According to the slide set from EAPS 375 on July 29, 2015, only about a
third of the continental United States has sustainable land for wind energy (Ballotti, 2015). The
land that appears usable is the Great Plains region (central continental U.S.), places throughout
the Appalachian Mountains, and the shorelines of both the East Coast and West Coast.
Considering that electrical generation from wind is a fairly new technology, 4.4% of total
electrical generation seems to be correct.
The place of wind energy for electrical generation in the United States is much debated
though. Some advocates place wind energy at the top of the list, as it is truly renewable. Wind
will never stop as there will always be an uneven heating of the Earth’s surface. Unfortunately
the power that wind has is not concentrated, so harnessing that energy is a difficult task. The
most used technology today is the conventional wind turbine, a large white (typically) tower with
three large blades that spin a generator which produces electricity and is then sent down the
tower into the electrical grid (Ballotti, 2015). There are many other technologies that are around,
most are in the developmental stages though. According to the American Wind Energy
Association, there are over 49,000 windmills in the United States which represent around
67,870 megawa.
Weather satellites and how to read the signsKella Randolph
Weather refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity. Climate is for the averaging of atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. Air mass – a large body of air that is similar in temperature, humidity, and air pressure throughout.
Air masses can measure hundreds or even thousands of miles across
The definition of the universe is all matter and energy. Our Earth, our Sun and the planets, moons, asteroids, etc., that make up our galaxy, are just a very small part of the universe.
Review of concepts of earth science including river delta, earthquakes, subduction, tsunami, volcanoes, two sunken cities, fossil fuels, clean energy, water use and protection, properties of water.
NASA has some information based on more than fifty years of research and exploration of the moon. Impact theory says that two planets collided billions of years ago causing parts of both to combine and form a smaller sphere that orbits the larger one.
Estuaries unique environment makes them a great place for humans and animals. Humans benefit from the beauty of estuaries and the food and resources they provide. Estuaries make great tourism attractions or harbors and ports

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.
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.
