Museum Case Studies
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum
A museum is an institution that cares for (conserves) a collection of artifacts and other objects of scientific, artistic, cultural, or historical importance and makes them available for public viewing through exhibits that may be permanent or temporary.[1] Most large museums are located in major cities throughout the world and more local ones exist in smaller cities, towns and even the countryside. Museums have varying aims, ranging from serving researchers and specialists to serving the general public. The continuing acceleration in the digitization of information, combined with the increasing capacity of digital information storage, is causing the traditional model of museums (i.e. as static "collections of collections" of three-dimensional specimens and artifacts) to expand to include virtual exhibits and high-resolution images of their collections for perusal, study, and exploration from any place with Internet.[citation needed] The city with the largest number of museums is Mexico City with over 128 museums. According to The World Museum Community, there are more than 55,000 museums in 202 countries.[2]
A case study on Public spaces....DELHI HAAT....(INA).Dilli Haat is an open-air food plaza and craft bazaar located in Delhi, run by Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation (DTTDC). Unlike the traditional weekly market, the village Haat, Dilli Haat is permanent. It is located in the commercial centres of South Delhi, opposite INA market. The 6 acres of land on which this complex is situated was salvaged as part of a reclamation project and transformed into a plaza. Extensive foundation work, small thatched roof cottages and kiosks give the plaza a village atmosphere. Some shops are permanent but other sellers are rotated, usually for fifteen days.The architectural features of the complex have been especially designed in the traditional north Indian style, with brickwork jail (lattice) and stone roofs.A hall in the complex specifically caters to exhibitions of the handlooms and handicrafts. A souvenir shop, also displays attractive ethnic products.The small thatched roof cottages and kiosks, without any concrete structures provide a village atmosphere.The shops are set up on platforms, which act as a link in the Bazar design. The courtyards between the shops are paved in stone and interspaced with grass to retain a visual softness.The landscaping of the area incorporates colourful flowering shrubs and trees, thus the entire complex is in harmony with the environment.
Urban haat is a new concept introduced by Indian government to promote art and craft. It is a setting of market in urban areas for artists from different parts of india to sell their products in the city.
JT Performing Arts Center (JTPAC) - The first multi-centric cultural stage in Kerala, JTPac has been committed since its inception in 2009 to promote and preserve the country’s rich and vibrant traditions in music, dance, folk and theatre.

The design of concert hall itself inspires the performers and excites the audience. It is recognized by artists, patrons and the media alike to be among South India’s foremost venues for performing arts.
A magnificent performance centre with 617 seat capacity, so ergonomically designed for the vantage view from all points with box seats , the air conditioned arena is replete with a spaced out lobby, cafeteria and hang-out joints. The right place to get inspired and interact.
A key aspect of JTPac is that it is amongst a handful few Performing Arts Centers across the globe, committed to offering fellowships. A not-for-profit organization, we support 14 Artists - as of this fiscal year- who need financial or medical aid.
Our approach : to be sustainable in our sensitivity to the field of arts and dedicate wholeheartedly to inspire change in the field of culture is being perceived. This, of course will be done through a transparent operational model, where trust , credibility and efficiency will be the benchmarks.

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.
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.

MY STUDY
CONTROL OF HEATING BY TEXTURE OF SURFACES:
The heat inside of the building is controlled by the use
of textures in Jaisalmer. This is organized at three levels.
•At the town scale the buildings are of unequal height
with parapets and high walls, creating uneven sky lines
and desired shading of each other.
•Secondly, the building facades have large number of
projections like jharokhas and chajjas which provide
shade to the facades.
•Thirdly, the front part of the facade which remains
exposed are controlled by creating deeply carved
patterns.
Use of such devices minimizes the heat gain by
providing shading due to texture. Such devices also
result in increased convective transfer of heat because of
increased surface area. In summer in day time when the
major heat source is Sun the exposed textured surfaces
will be cooler than plain surfaces.

•The foundations have been generally filled with stones and
walls built with stone or brick.
•The straight lines of the walls have been broken and
rounded before a thin plaster of cement is put and then
treated with a combination of mud, cow dung and husk by
the village women from the neighboring areas.
•The roofs, wherever air-conditioning was not planned, have
been erected with iron pipes and purlins, which are covered
with bamboo net and terracotta tiles (keloos), brought
from different parts of the region.
•The hut structures are provided with windows and doors at
times with „aaliyas‟ covered with built-in spaces for deepaks
(terracotta lamps) in different shapes.
•The walls are decorated with relief murals, created with brick
motifs and relief work designed with thick cement plaster in
tempera, mainly with clay colors geru (Indian red), pilli
rnitti (ochre) and saphed rnitti (white clay).
•Bamboos have been used extensively to integrate one
structure with another. Thus creating harmony.

the construction.
