Charlemagne's empire reached its greatest extent during his reign in the late 8th and early 9th centuries. He conquered much of Western Europe and promoted learning and education. After his death, his empire broke apart and faced invasions from outside forces like the Vikings. This instability led to the rise of feudalism across Europe as powerful nobles provided local protection in exchange for loyalty from peasants. The feudal system structured much of medieval European society over subsequent centuries.

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.

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.

----- Meeting Notes (11/12/12 18:47) -----Called "Middle Ages" because it was between - Roman Empire- RenaissanceWhich were two periods in history with much accomplishments in:-culture-artistic -scientific-political
Hello here I am
Charlemagne was about 60 years oldHad already been in power for over 3 decades
Alexander the Great vs. CharlemagneBoth trained by leading scholars in countryBoth loved learning and promoted it in his empireBoth had good fathers- good rulers military successfulBoth conquered and controlled great amount of land for their timeBoth left their land in sections to their followersAlexander the Great was younger when started learningAlexander the Great – Eastern EmpireCharlemagne- Western Empire
Church had controlled all learning Foreshadows learning will take a secular turn in the renaissance
Papyrus not available anymore because Muslims took over EgyptHides were expensive and hard to get
SIGNIFICANCE = Managed to throw Europe BACK into dark agesIt had a mini renaissance under Charlemagne’s reignTHEY KNEW where to attack = Churches and Cities This is where the plunder was the bestSETTLETRADERAIDTO STOP Vikings they had to built fortifications
Land = wealth and power
What other ceremony does this remind you of?
Notice the lack of ornamentation on wood workDrapes help keep the cold out in winterRoll away bed for whoever had the honor of sleeping with the nobleFurniture came apart for travel purposesChest at bottom of bed for clothing
