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.

3. Premise:
Bring Your Own Device – what‟s the idea?
• Students have their own devices
• Students have their own devices with them
in every class
• Students‟ own devices are often better than
institutional equipment
• Students know how to use their own devices
• Schools can save money by relying on
students‟ devices

Chronologically…
• Featurephones
• Cameras
• Smartphones

6. Leicester schools
• “Some schools in Leicester are already supporting the
use of student owned mobile phones in lessons. There
are several drivers that make this a good time for
Leicester schools to investigate an expanded and
strategic approach to BYOD.”(Fraser, 2012)
• Building Schools for the Future Programme
• Network infrastructure
• Digital Literacy

7. How to do BYOD correctly
• Know why you‟re doing it
• Network infrastructure
• Digital citizenship
• Communicate expectations
• Empower teachers
• Autonomy, choice, commonality
(Bevacqua, 2012)
• http://figuringitouted.blogspot.co.uk
8. How BYOD is really happening
• Teachers notice that
students are using
mobiles for learning
• Teachers realise they
can leverage this
• Teachers individually
allow some mobile use in
class
• Management begins to
consider BYOD
• Network
infrastructure
• Policy
9. Common BYOD uses
• Internet search (Examples of QE1 College
and Wirral secondary school)
• Camera (can send to Flickr, Instagram or
keep personal)
• Sound recording (SoundCloud, AudioBoo)
• Voting
• Cross-platform learning apps

13. Reading
• Try epub instead of pdf
• Calibre
– Begin with a Word doc
– Save as htm
– Import into Calibre
– Convert to epub
– Email it or post on VLE/LMS
14. Social Media
• Twitter – students can follow
– Alex Bellos @alexbellos – maths
– National Geographic @NatGeo – geography
– Chris Hadfield @Cmdr_Hadfield – astronaut
• YouTube – Kahn Academy

“When they’re watching a
YouTube video, they don’t know
that they’re learning; they think
they’re just having fun!”

16. Precaution 1: Consider the environment
• Furniture
• Power sockets
• Wireless
network
• Special
charging
lockers

18. Precaution 2: Network infrastructure
• 100mb/s
• Gigabit Ethernet switches
• 1 wireless access point per 20 students
(Tablets for Schools, 2013)
http://www.tabletsforschools.co.uk
19. Precaution 3:
Challenge Cyberbullying with Culture
• Encourage good digital citizenship
• Have an enforceable „acceptable use
policy‟ of mobile devices in school
• Must have a cyberbullying policy
(SouthWest_Grid_For_Learning, 2013)
20. What teachers are saying:
• “It‟s not stranger-danger anymore we
need to warn them about; they might
bully each other”
• “They probably have already made a
Facebook page for their form”
• “If you act responsibly, you can use your
mobiles”
21. “We lifted the ban on mobile phones last
term because we realised that the
students (some 1600) of them had all got
powerful computers in their pockets and
we just wouldn't be able to afford to
provide all of them with that level of
technology.”
-Graham Parker, Deputy Head and Head of
E-Learning, St. Julian‟s School, Newport
