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.

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.

Action plan
1. Part 1: Technology Integration Action Plan for CHS:
Summary
Based on the direction of our CISD strategic plan the following goals are handed down from the
district level to the campus level to lead in the integration of technology. Since the campus needs to
line up its objectives with the strategic plan it is important that we understand and address these
issues in our action plan, professional development, and evaluation strategies.
Technology Integration Strategy goals from District level:
1) Establish a method for all stakeholders to obtain appropriate skills needed to be effective
consumers and producers of information.
2) Increase CISD staff’s level of technology integration expertise (proficiencies) through a
differentiated staff development program that addresses 21st Century technology skills.
3) Expand the Career and Technology courses within CISD to provide additional opportunities
to the entire student population.
4) Create a system for providing online learning opportunities for all stakeholders, which
incorporates such tools as a video portal solution for parents, online professional
development resources for staff members, distance learning and partnerships for dual credit
opportunities for students.
5) Ensure the availability of resources necessary for students to create digital portfolios, and
utilize communication tools such as wikis, blogs, and social networking.
6) Develop a green IT strategy and promote green initiatives to reduce energy costs and
appropriately manage electronic waste.
7) Enhance the Coppell ISD communication system to provide district staff, parents,
community members and business partners with secure, effective and efficient
communication via a reliable and dynamic infrastructure.
8) Provide an adequate and equitable infrastructure, through an appropriate replacement
schedule, to meet the instructional and technological needs of all staff and students.
Procedures:
The establishment of a strategic technology integration Action Plan for CHS will ensure the
goals of the State or Texas Long Range Technology Integration Plan are addressed as well as the
CISD district strategic plans objectives for technology listed above. The Action Plan is meant to
address the learning needs of the staff and students as indicated by the summative assessment data
from last years STAR Chart. The plan is also a direct response to the data collected from our group
forums held with students in the week 3 class work which assessed the perceived needs and
shortfalls of technology integration from their perspective. The plan keeps in mind the desires of the
technology integration specialist on our campus, and the principal’s perspective as they were also
interviewed during the week 3 course work. Though all of this we have tried to assess the needs of
the school while keeping in mind the limitations of the current budgetary confines to come up with
5 solid Action Plan objectives to increase the success of our program.. Overall this Action Plan will
address most factors from the development of objectives to the needed professional development
and finally the evaluation factor so important to gaining perspective on the success of these
initiatives.
Technology Integration Action Plan for 2010-2011

Principal’s role in making sure the organizational chart is implemented and monitored: Not only is
it the principal’s role to be sure that all personal are fulfilling their role in the big picture of
technology implementation and support, but it is his/her job to be sure it is actually having an
impact on learning. If technology is used but learning is not taking place there needs to be
adjustments made. Since technology is simply a tool, the formative and summative assessments to
gauge success in learning are based on the use of technology and this is not as easy as TAKs testing
results to evaluate. The whole assessment is much more subjective. It is almost understood that if
technology is used in project based learning that is of sufficient level on the depth and complexity
model then the implementation of technology has been successful. Teaching through the lens of
technology is the key. Utilizing the tools the students already have like I-phones is forward
thinking. Keeping abreast of policies and threats because of technology use is also pertinent to the
principal role.
