The document discusses the Incorporation Doctrine and its impact on applying protections of the Bill of Rights to state and local governments. It began with the 1925 Gitlow v. New York case, which ruled that the 14th Amendment applies the 1st Amendment's free speech protections to states. This began the process where the Supreme Court nationalized most Bill of Rights provisions through the 14th Amendment's due process clause. Significant cases applied rights like counsel for capital crimes, confronting witnesses, and jury trials to states. The Incorporation Doctrine ensured individual freedoms are protected from infringement by all levels of government.

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.
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.

1. Bill of Rights: Learning Unit # 4
Learning Objective # 2: Using the course textbook and supplemental readings,
students will be able to analyze the impact of the Incorporation Doctrine on our
society.
Transcript of Slidecast
In the first part of this learning unit we discussed the history and background of
the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution, and how it protects citizens against the
government and ensures their basic civil liberties.
But what happens if a state passes a law which violates the Bill of Rights as
written in the Constitution? Well, in the case of Barron v. Baltimore, in 1833, the
answer was "nothing".
Let's review the background of the case. John Barron was a Baltimore wharf
owner and when the City of Baltimore diverted water away from his wharf during
improvements to the harbor, he lost his business and received no compensation.
John Barron sued the city on the basis that the 5th Amendment prohibited the
national government from taking property without just compensation.
The Maryland court ruled against John Barron, and the U.S. Supreme Court
agreed with the Maryland court's decision, stating that the Bill of Rights only
applies to the actions of the national government, not the governments of states
or cities.
We have to wait until 1925 for the provisions of the Bill of Rights to be first
applied to the state and local governments.
The first case to "nationalize" some of the protections of the Bill of Rights was the
case of Gitlow v. New York, in 1925. Benjamin Gitlow was a Socialist who had
been distributing literature which espoused the creation of a socialist state using
strikes and other group actions. He was arrested and convicted under New York
anarchy laws which prohibited communications discussing the overthrow of the
U.S. government. Gitlow claimed protection under the 1st Amendment's freedom
of speech clause, since his literature led to no direct action.
The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the state's conviction, but ruled that freedoms of
speech and press "were fundamental rights and liberties protected by the 14th
Amendment from impairment by the states".
The 14th Amendment was ratified in 1868 and gave former slaves legal
protection. It states:
"No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges
or immunities of citizens of the United States nor shall any state deprive any
2. person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any
person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
In the decision of Gitlow v. New York, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the 14th
Amendment prohibits states from infringing on free speech.
This decision in 1925 began the development of the Incorporation Doctrine, the
legal concept under which the Supreme Court has nationalized the Bill of Rights
by making most of its provisions applicable to the states through the 14th
Amendment.
The only exceptions to this application of the Bill of Rights are the 3rd and 7th
Amendments, the Grand Jury requirement of the 5th Amendment, and the
prohibition of excessive fines and bails of the 8th Amendment.
Let's look at a few historic examples from your text in Table 4.2, The
Nationalization of the Bill of Rights. Some of the most significant cases involve
the nationalization of defendant rights under the protections in the 4th through
8th Amendments. For example, the right to counsel if accused of a capital crime
was not nationalized until 1932 in the case of Powell v. Alabama. Before 1932,
in some states, you could be accused of a capital crime and not be entitled to
legal counsel.
The right to confront witnesses was not nationalized until the case of Pointer v.
Texas in 1965. And the right to a jury trial for serious crimes was not
nationalized until 1968 in Duncan v. Louisiana.
This process of incorporation of rights has been extremely significant in the legal
and social progress of our nation, as the Bill of Rights now guarantees individual
freedoms against infringement by state and local governments, as well as the
national government.
