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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

10. Credits and Graduation Plans 26 credits required for graduation Recommended Plan Distinguished Achievement Plan All sections of the TAKS must be passed
11. Grades Credits are awarded on a semester-by-semester basis. Students earn ½ credit per semester. If a student fails the first semester of a full year course and passes the second semester, the two semester grades will be averaged to determine whether the student has earned a passing grade for the year. Example: Semester 1: 68 Semester 2: 98 Average: 83 Student will earn a full credit for the course
12. Grades If a student passes the first semester of a full year course, but fails the second semester, the second semester grade will NOT be averaged, and the student must repeat the second semester of the course. Example: Semester 1: 98 Semester 2: 68 In the above grading scenario, a student would NOT receive a full year credit. This could adversely affect a student’s promotion to the next grade.
