1. Preface
It is dawning on many of us that the current pace and direction of society is difficult to keep up for very long. When in the post-world-war period the pursuit of (individual) achievement seemed the key force of collective development, now the nature of the achievement is very much at the heart of our concerns. Sharing and respecting the environment, be it social, capital or natural, must now regain a central position in community management. Simultaneously the means available for this common task are more and more distributed. More than ever must one ask what one can do for the community, rather than what the community can do for us.
If this project can establish the relevance of the multidisciplinary approach to global sustainability, it will be succesful. All participants, and all of their partners, will be dealing with our subject hands on. This means, once again, to break out of conventional silos so that professionals with different expertise can share insights and work side by side for the common goal.
Once the individual participants of the project recognise the shared motivation, the matter can be improved, embodied and disseminated - through the work in progress and the distribution of the results. Everyone will have the occasion to relay the subject in new links with organisations and city councils on local level, bringing together the actors within a common framework. The nature of 'change management' will need the implication of key-stake-holders on a regional level. Developping and distributing tested contents will convince captains of governance and industry to support the agents of the new models. The rich and diverse context of european culture will be a favourable background for innovating community-management with the resilience of a hybrid multi-faceted approach. When we come out with a 'best-practice'-based toolbox, developed on field work, we will be ready to share the expertise, and promote this complementary and crucial frame of innovation.
2. Research Outcomes
This research report is part of the Erasmus + project. It is the result of the initial phase, and concentrates on the task of assessing the existing practices of the five partners. The results of the research is be the basis of the second and final phase - the Toolbox development. The Toolbox is destined to enable other individuals or groups to learn the basics of setting up multidisciplinary social entrepreneur clusters.
Museums are content generators by nature. Today their role as connectors between the collection knowledge and the visitors / users is gaining more and more strength. Museums are still exploring ways of connecting stories to people. Wit examples of best practices of museums worldwide on social media, website renovations, online collections, mobile.

Visitor-Centered Exhibition Design: A paradigm Shift for Art MuseumsSilvia Fantoni
With the aim of becoming a more visitor-centered institution, the Indianapolis Museum of Art has implemented a new team-based collaborative exhibition development process that seeks visitor input throughout various stages of development. While this approach is not uncommon in other cultural institutions, particularly children’s museums and science and history centers, it is a significant shift for art museums. This presentation will describe different ways of involving visitors in the exhibition development process. It will also provide examples of how exhibitions have changed as a result of this process and ultimately give an overview of the outcomes that we have achieved in terms of visitor satisfaction and communication of key messages.

Enabling digital scholarship through staff training: the British Library's ex...Mia
A talk at the DH Lab at the University of Exeter in February 2019.
The British Library's Digital Scholarship Training Programme provides colleagues with the space and support to
develop the necessary skills and knowledge to support emerging areas of modern scholarship. Their familiarity with the foundational concepts, methods and tools of digital scholarship in turn helps promote a spirit of innovation and creativity, encouraging digital initiatives within the Library and with external partners. Finally, the programme of events helps nourish and sustain an internal digital scholarship community of interest/practice.
In this talk, Digital Curator Dr. Mia Ridge will share some of the lessons the team have learnt about delivering Digital Scholarship training in a library environment since it began several years ago, and some of the challenges they still face.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.
