Technology is anything that disturbs normative time and space, either in terms of our perception of the passage of time or our sense of what is real and what is artificial. But where is the eternal now in that progressive myth? If living in the present is living a centered life, how do we respond to the tide of technologies that promise to disconnect us from this moment and this movement?

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.

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.

Exploring data driven learning design for negotiating troublesome concepts
1. Exploring data driven learning
design for negotiating troublesome
concepts
Bethany Alden Rivers, The University of Northampton
John Richardson, The Open University
3. ‘…how students themselves think
about knowledge, learning and
teaching is a primary factor
influencing their experience of
higher education itself.’
(Richardson, 2013, p. 192).
4. Universities need to care more
about developing learners’
epistemologies.
(Lucas & Tan, 2013)
5. The problem…
Researchers need better ways of understanding epistemic
beliefs (Schraw, et al., 2002).
‘Well-validated quantitative instruments that could be used
to measure epistemological development in large samples
of students are still lacking’ (Richardson, 2013, p. 201).
6. Knowing and Reasoning Inventory (KARI)
Measure of Epistemological Review
(Baxter Magolda, 1992)
Argumentative Reasoning
(Kuhn, 1992)
Reasoning Knowing+
8. Creating the KARI
• Converting qualitative interview protocol into
quantitative ‘statements’.
• 5-point Likert scale
• 3 demographic questions: age, gender, educational
background
• 12 questions related to Reasoning
• 20 questions related to Knowing
9. Examples of KARI statements for
Reasoning
• Experts know what causes prisoners to return to
crime.
• It is possible to have more than one point of view
as to what causes prisoners to return to crime.
• Compared to the average person, I know a lot
about what causes prisoners to return to crime.
10. Examples of KARI statements for Knowing
• The goal of learning is to come up with my own
perspective on things. (Role of the Learner)
• My classmates play a very important role in my
own learning. (Role of Peers)
• Not everything my instructor says is true because
we all have our own beliefs about things. (Nature
of Knowledge)
11.
12. Validating the KARI
• Phase 1: 77 students at the University of Northampton in
May 2014
• Excellent inter-reliability among the Reasoning and among
the Knowing questions
• Some interesting and statistically significant relationship
between Reasoning, Knowing and Demographics
13. What can an epistemological profile
allow us to do?
14. Our storyline
A learner’s conceptual development is ‘shrouded in
distinctive, epistemic modes of reasoning and explanation’
(Baillie et al., 2013, p. 234).
A greater awareness of students’ beliefs about the nature of
knowledge can illuminate students’ conceptual
development (Buehl & Alexander, 2001).
15. Exploratory workshop
• 10 members of staff at the University of Northampton
• Academic staff, learning technologists, learning designers, heads of learning
and quality
• Theoretical frame: Threshold Concepts Framework (Meyer & Land, 2003)
How might KARI data be used by learning designers
to promote university students’ conceptual
development?
16. Three activities
Identify a threshold concept
List three activities for grasping this threshold
concept (see Baillie et al.’s 2014 Capability model)
Consider how a student’s KARI profile may
influence the design of these activities
17.
18. Theme 1: Threshold concept is a
threshold concept.
My own approach to ‘learning design’ failed
to account for ‘pre-liminal variation’.
For further reflection: how can those who
influence course design become more
familiar with conceptual development
frames, such as the TCF?
19. Theme 2: Learning design is for the
cohort, not for the individual.
“I would not create different
scenarios. I'd use exactly the same
activities for both students. The
output and subsequent outcome of
a single "learning situation" would
be different, perhaps, but the
scenario for learning would be the
same.”
20. Theme 3: Visualisations of data need to
be more meaningful.
“there is too much new
information for some folk
[sic] to take in”.
21. Next steps?
• Rework the KARI and continue to validate the instrument
• Try new visualisations—what does a strong profile look
like compared to a developing or weak profile?
• Learn more about how such data may or may not be
useful to staff or students
