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.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
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 Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

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”.

Building a professional digital profile
1. Building a professional digital
profile
By Lisa Harris and Chira Tochia
24th April 2017
@lisaharris @chiratochia
2. Who we are
• Lisa Harris : Director Web Science Institute and Digital Educator.
Connect @lisaharris / L.J.Harris@soton.ac.uk
• Chira Tochia: PhD student Web Science and Digital Educator. Connect
@chiratochia / cnt1g15@soton.ac.uk
3. Plan
• What are digital literacies and why are they important?
• Online identity - managing the personal v the professional
• What employers are looking for
• For questions / input to activities please use this shared googledoc
4. Sourced from recent lecture by @Intersticia “The age of the social machine” available here
5. Digital Literacy
• “Digital literacy is the ability to locate, organise, understand,
evaluate, and analyse information using digital technology. It
involves a working knowledge of current tools and an
understanding of how they can be used”
• “The active management of online activities such as
collaboration, networking , content creation and curation in
order to “stand out from the crowd” in today’s job market”
• “an ability to respond positively to change”
• “How we can best live, learn and work in an increasingly digital
society”
6. Managing our digital footprint
• effective learning in a world where we are increasingly swamped with data.
• showcasing our knowledge and building our networks to “stand out from the
crowd” – enhancing employment prospects or a setting up a new business
• promoting “digital citizenship” – for example by behaving responsibly online
or raising awareness of and supporting good causes.
11. The many faces of You!
Onkvisit and Shaw (1987) identify at least four components similar to that of Sirgy’s (1982) findings
on the self:
(1) actual or objective self —the way a person actually is
(2) self-image —the way a person sees them self
(3) ideal self (self-actualization) —the way they would like to be
(4) social self— the way they think others regard them
Onkvisit, S., and Shaw, J., 1987. Self-concept and Image Congruence: Some Research and Managerial Implications. Journal of Consumer Marketing, 4 (1), 13 – 23.
Sirgy, J., 1982. Self-Concept in Consumer Behavior: A Critical Review. Journal of Consumer Research, 9, 287-300.
12. Single or multiple digital identities?
• A single identity is easily identifiable as us across all platforms.
• Multiple identities may be used for different contexts (such as
professional and personal) or on different platforms - some of which
may be anonymous
• Whichever we choose, we make active choices over what we:
• create, post and share,
• contribute to communities and social networks,
• like and comment on,
• respond and reply to or repost/retweet
• Some views on this topic from other Southampton students
13. Give before you receive
• Developing a ‘digital footprint’ which demonstrates our skills is not an overnight
task. Chris Brogan talks about ‘paying it forward’ – meaning we should give
before we receive.
• Long term benefit comes from focusing on the value we bring to our network, not
what we take from it.
• Don’t connect with someone on LinkedIn just when you need a recommendation.
Share useful information with your network, and you will benefit when you need
help in return.
• Watch the discussion on paying it forward with Southampton PhD students here
14. Privacy…or lack of…
https://myaccount.google.com/
to control, protect and secure your account
https://myaccount.google.com/privacy#ads
to see what information Google thinks it knows about you from your
browsing habits – fun to see what they have guessed at
Useful tips here to clean up search results for your name
Beware the “filter bubble” - searching your name in your own browser will
NOT give you an accurate view of how other people see these results.
Google filters and personalises results according to past search behaviour, so
a search from your own machine is likely to disproportionally favour your
own sites.
16. The challenge
A standard CV is no longer sufficient to stand out from the crowd in a global and
rapidly evolving job market.
“We are currently preparing students for jobs that
don’t yet exist, using technologies that haven’t
been invented, in order to solve problems we
don’t even know are problems yet.”
- Karl Fisch, “Did You Know”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmwwrGV_aiE

18. Recruitment in a digital world
According to a 2016 study by Jobvite:
• 96% of recruiters use social media in the hiring process
• 80% had been positively influenced by a candidate’s professional
social network profile
• 78% had been negatively influenced towards a candidate’s
inappropriate use of social media
• More input here from Southampton students on employer
expectations
19. Employer branding
• The best candidates might not be actively looking for a new job (up to
90% of the workforce at any time)
• Social media can identify the best talent , encourage conversation and
build relationships between prospective employees/employers
• Enables recruiters to promote their company as “a great place to
work”
20. Top Tips
• Edit your headline (and photo)
• Update regularly
• Use “calls to action”
• Request recommendations
• Post material
• Connect with each other
21. Exercise
• In what ways will you enhance your professional digital profile after
this session?
• Divide your ideas up into “quick wins” and longer term plans.
22. More Resources
• Learning in the Network Age MOOC starts 24/4 for 2 weeks
• Power of Social Media MOOC starts 8/5 for 2 weeks
• Digital Literacies and Employability (a free online course by Dr Cristina
Costa, University of Strathclyde. Starts 2nd May for 3 weeks)
• Satire from The Onion, (but with more than a grain of truth!)
Editor's Notes
Think carefully about your digital footprint
Edit your headline – this (and your photo) is what people see first, its how people find you better in the search engine, it doesn’t have to be your job title (freelancers for example)
Update regularly – you never know who is watching when – you could be headhunted, and you don’t want to be working out what you did in a role years ago for a job with a looming deadline
Use “calls to action” - tell visitors what to do, point them in the direction of your web site, tell them if you’re available for work, how best to contact you. Don’t assume they will know the best next step without being prompted.
Request recommendations – A great way to clear up reference details on your CV and a quick way for future employees to see what kind of person you are from someone else
Post material – from your own personal sites, articles you feel passionately about (make sure you’ve read them) – position yourself as an expert in the field or as an advocate
Connect with each other – some of my best connections have been people I went to uni with and also who they’re connected to as well
