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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
1. Civil War Battles
As you progress through the slides, read the clues, then see if you can
name the battle that is described. Click to the next slide to check your
answer.
3. • The Civil War began on April 12 when Confederate artillery fired on
this federal facility in Charleston, SC.
• The “battle” was not really a military contest (there was no resistance
from the federal troops inside the fort), but this act of deliberate
rebellion turned secession from a political question into a military
conflict.
5. • After Ft. Sumter, both sides enjoyed robust enlistments. In the North,
politicians predicted a short fight: the southern rebellion would soon
be crushed by the US Army.
• In July, in this first “real” battle of the war, Confederate forces pushed
Union forces back.
• The Union retreat was shocking and it was clear that the South would
not be easily defeated.
8. • Though the Union won this battle in Tennessee in April and this battle
in Maryland in September, they sustained massive casualties to do so.
• After Antietam Lee retreated southward.
• Seeing the victory as a “sign from God,” President Lincoln decided to
issue the Emancipation Proclamation – freeing the slaves in the
“states in rebellion.”
11. • By 1863, the odds of southern independence were dropping fast.
Attrition began to takes its toll.
• Two battles, one in the east and one in the west were won by the
Union on the same day – ironically on July 4!
• This battle, fought in Pennsylvania, drove Lee’s army back into Virginia
from which it would fight only defensively for the remainder of the
war.
13. • This battle, fought in Mississippi, ended a lengthy siege, giving the
Union control of much of the Mississippi River. This cut off states
west of the river (Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas) from the rest of the
Confederacy.
16. • During this event late in 1864, Union forces marched across Georgia,
leaving destruction in their wake.
• The purpose of the campaign was to destroy the South’s ability to
continue the fight…which it did.
• The South never recovered from this devastating invasion.
19. • Confederate forces were decimated. Attrition had taken its toll.
• Understanding further resistance to be futile, Confederate General
Robert E. Lee formally surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant
at this place.
