A DIFFERENT WAY TO TEACH WRITING (in 10 easy steps).
Asked whether they would rather have a tooth pulled out without anaesthetic or write an essay, I am sure most students would opt for the former. :-) This is partly because the writing we do in class is ‘display writing’, but partly also because writing feels such a big thing. So here is an alternative: instead of asking students to write the whole text from scratch, why not give them something another student has already written and simply ask them to improve it?

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.
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”.

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.

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.
3. HOW TO FIND INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Cast your net wide and don’t be afraid to ask for favors.
Ask your professors, mentors, and former employers about opportunities they think might be
right for you. Make sure they have an up to date copy of your resume and a clear idea of the
kinds of internships you’re interested in. A lot of companies will reach out to these folks directly
looking for promising interns.
Do some digging.
Websites like Indeed.com, Idealist.org, GoAbroad.com, and GlobalPlacement.com advertise
internship positions in the US and beyond.
Think about your passions.
Make a list of five causes you care about. Research organizations that align with these passions
and see if they’re looking for interns. Pro tip: Just because their website isn’t advertising open
intern positions doesn’t mean they wouldn’t welcome qualified applicants.
4. TIPS FOR APPLYING FOR INTERNSHIPS
Have references ready.
Remember the mentors who helped you find cool internship opportunities? Make sure they’re
on board with serving as a verbal reference if needed, and always give them a heads up if you
think they might be getting a phone call to inquire about you soon.
Do your research.
Do more than scan the company website for 20-30 minutes. Do a Google search on recent news
about the company. Follow them on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Find two to three com-
pelling comments and questions to have ready for the interview. Even better if you can incorpo-
rate your research into your application.
5. TIPS FOR APPLYING FOR INTERNSHIPS
Double and triple check your resume.
Make sure there are no typos or spelling errors and have a friend you trust do the same.
Get your application in promptly.
Send everything in by the deadline. No deadline? Try to get everything in five to seven days after
the position was initially advertised.
6. TIPS FOR INTERVIEWING
Be on time.
It is unlikely you’ll be offered an internship position if you’re late for the interview. Allow yourself
plenty of time to get to the location or to set everything up at home if it’s a Skype interview. For
phone interviews, make sure you’re ready to take the call five minutes before the scheduled
time.
Dress the part.
Dress the part of a confident, passionate, and most importantly, professional perspective intern
– even if you know the office dress code is casual, or if you’re doing the interview virtually. Think
you can wear your pajamas for a phone interview? We wouldn’t recommend it. Wearing profes-
sional clothes puts you in a more professional mindset, and can give you a boost of confidence.
7. TIPS FOR INTERVIEWING
Come prepared.
Bring several copies of your resume and writing samples (if applicable) or have them ready to
email out to any virtual interviewees who might not have them. Make sure you have a pen (with
plenty of ink!) and a notepad to write down what you learn. Psst: Remember those smart ques-
tions and comments you prepared? You can jot those down ahead of time on your notepad so
you don’t forget them. You never want to say “No” when they ask, “Do you have any questions?”
Be the best version of yourself.
Do you tend to talk quickly and intensely when nervous? Don’t lose your drive, but practice
speaking with a more cool and calm demeanor. Tend to get silly in professional situations? Let
your bubbly nature shine through, but make sure your professionalism does as well.
8. AFTER THE INTERVIEW
Remember your manners.
Pleases and Thank yous are important! Even more impressive are follow-up handwritten thank
you cards. Pick up a set of these to have ready after every interview. Send one to every person
who interviewed you and make sure to reiterate your interest in the position.
Don’t be too needy.
Following up once is okay, but don’t send multiple emails asking where they are in the hiring
process. If they want you, you’ll hear from them, and being too demanding about the timeline
could turn a “yes” or a “maybe” into a definite “no.”
Don’t stop searching.
Don’t stop applying for internships once you think you’ve found and applied for your dream one.
You don’t want to lose momentum in your search. Keep applying until you’ve received and said
yes to an offer.
10. PREPARING FOR YOUR INTERNSHIP
You’ve got an amazing internship lined up in another country. Get ready to experience new
people, foods, culture, and more against the backdrop of an exciting new city.
Make sure you’ve got your bases covered before leaving to start
your new internship.
Arrange your flight.
Figure out where you’ll be living and how you’ll be getting around.
Get or renew your passport.
Visas – a visa is required to visit Brazil and China. You’ll want to visit the China and
Brazil embassy website to follow the appropriate steps to obtain a visa. Start this
process as soon as possible as it can take up to 6 weeks to process a visa.
Arrange travel and health insurance.
11. PREPARING FOR YOUR INTERNSHIP
Figure out how you’ll communicate with your loved ones while
traveling (cell phone, email, Facebook, etc.)
In certain countries and areas, it can be difficult to access Facebook or Gmail.
For China – social networking sites such as Facebook and email accounts like Gmail
will not work without a private VPN. Take this into consideration when planning how
to communicate with family and friends back home.
12. PREPARING FOR YOUR INTERNSHIP
Study the language in your spare time.
This will make your life much easier when you arrive.
Research the culture.
There are some big and some small cultural differences that you’ll experience. It’s important to
understand that what you are accustomed to living in the U.S. may be considered rude or inap-
propriate in different countries. Understand what is acceptable and unacceptable before you
venture out.
Talk to your doctor about any vaccinations you might need.
Purchase a suit and a few high quality and versatile pieces appropriate for the office.
Keep doing research on the company – the more you know, the better.
Make a list of a few attractions you’d like to see while you’re there. This experience
should not only be professionally, but personally rewarding.
Explore other countries! Having an internship abroad is the perfect springboard to
travel to other countries and see as much as you can see.
14. WHAT TO EXPECT
Culture shock.
Living in a new country for a few months is going to expose you to an entirely different way of
living. Keep an open mind and don’t be afraid to go out of your comfort zone (within reason).
Reverse culture shock.
Upon returning back to the states, don’t be afraid if you have a little bit of culture shock read-
justing to life here. You may not know some new celebrities, movies or music.
Hard work.
As a new young intern, you’re probably going to have to prove yourself. Be patient, hard work-
ing, efficient, humble, and enthusiastic. Never be afraid to ask questions, but always try to
answer them yourself before turning to your boss.
15. WHAT TO EXPECT
Make the most of it.
Sometimes an internship may not be what it seems. It’s not always glamorous and you may
have to fetch coffee at some point. Be sure to learn from it – make it your intention to learn as
much as you can from any situation.
Discoveries and “light bulb moments.”
Your internship will show you what it’s like to work in the professional world and help you figure
out what kinds of jobs you’d like to have after graduation. It could even open up your eyes to a
skill you never knew you had!
17. TIPS TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR EXPERIENCE
Have fun, but not too much.
Don’t be the intern who parties nonstop and is always tired the next day. Remember that
you’re there to learn. Stay focused!
Always observe.
Make mental notes about how people are behaving, speaking, collaborating, and even
dressing. You can learn so much as a newbie by observing how people behave in a
professional environment.
Ask for feedback.
Once you’ve been with the company for a few weeks, ask your boss if they have any tips for
how you can do better or if they have any insight to offer about potential career paths you
could go down. Don’t shy away from feedback – it’s how you learn.
18. Dress for success.
You don’t need to wear a suit the whole time (unless that’s what everyone else is wearing), but
you don’t want to look like a college student either. Plan your outfits every night before going to
bed so you can get ready stress-free every morning and still look put together.
Budget, budget, budget.
It’s tempting to blow your money going out every night, but internships are often unpaid (or
only offer small stipends). Make sure you’re careful with your money and don’t overspend.
TIPS TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR EXPERIENCE
20. WHY YOU SHOULD INTERN ABROAD
To stand out.
Most people applying for entry-level jobs have internship experience. In fact, it’s almost become
a requirement. Having an international internship experience on your resume can make you
stand out from the crowd when applying for jobs.
Language skills.
Don’t underestimate the power of being bilingual. Many employers are looking to hire people
who can speak multiple languages and better communicate with their customers.
Upward mobility.
Having international business experience can really set you apart from other candidates and
help you move up the chain faster.
Being Bilingual Pays Off.
Bilingual employees make 5-20% more than their non-bilingual counterparts.
21. WHY YOU SHOULD INTERN ABROAD
Networking.
Interning in a different country, you’ll be exposed to an entirely different network of
people. You can make contacts that can help connect you with a fascinating and fulfilling
job after graduation.
Life experience.
Nothing garners personal growth like traveling to a new country.
You’ll learn responsibility.
You’ll know you’re an adult when you can travel to, live in, and work in a new country on
your own for an extended period of time. Being able to do this will give you a huge amount
of confidence as you head into the professional world.
More opportunities.
When your search isn’t limited to local companies, you’re free to explore internships that
cater to your many interests and passions. The sky is the limit.
23. KEY POINTS
Do your research when finding and applying for internships.
Make sure you have mentors to help you with the search, application,
and interview process.
Find, follow, and display your passions.
Be prompt, professional, and studious.
Be responsible with your money, travel arrangements, and lifestyle.
Have fun and step outside of your comfort zone.
24. YOUR INTERNSHIP ABROAD IS A CHANCE TO
MAKE MAGIC HAPPEN. IMMERSE YOURSELF IN A
NEW CULTURE AND RELISH THIS OPPORTUNITY
TO BUILD A MORE PROFESSIONAL,
EXPERIENCED, AND INTERESTING YOU.
