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.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

29. Chelation
Chelation is a process in which a polydentate ligand bonds to a metal ion,
forming a ring. The complex produced by this process is called a chelate, and the
polydentate ligand is referred to as a chelating agent.
Ethylenediaminetetraaceticacid acid (EDTA) is a hexadentate
ligand and can bind a Metal via multiple "teeth" (left) Unbound
EDTA ion and (right) EDTA bound to a generic transition metal.
The Chelate Effect
The chelate effect is the enhanced affinity of
chelating ligands for a metal ion compared to the
affinity of a collection of similar nonchelating
(monodentate) ligands for the same metal.
30. Isomerism in Coordination Compounds
Isomer:
Two or more compounds having same molecular formula, but different physical
properties and chemical properties are called Isomers.
Isomers are two types.

linkage among the constituent atoms but
different arrangement of atoms in space.

or anti-clockwise.
33. This type of isomerism arises in Heteroleptic complexes due to different
possible geometric arrangements of the ligands.
Important examples of this behavior are found with coordination numbers
4 and 6.
In a square planar complex of formula [MX2L2] (X and L are unidentate),
the two ligands X may be arranged adjacent to each other in a cis isomer,
or opposite to each other in a trans isomer.
Other square planar complex of the type MABXL (where A, B, X, L are
unidentates) shows three isomers-two cis and one trans.
Such isomerism is not possible for a tetrahedral geometry, but similar
behavior is possible in octahedral complexes of formula [MX2L4] in which
the two ligands X may be oriented cis or trans to each other
Geometrical Isomerism application
34. This type of isomerism also arises when
di-dentate ligands L – L [e.g., NH2 CH2
CH2 NH2 (en)] are present in complexes
of formula [MX2(L– L)2]
Geometrical Isomerism application
Geometrical isomers (cis and trans) of [CoCl2(en)2]
Another type of geometrical isomerism
occurs in octahedral coordination entities
of the type [Ma3b3] like
[Co(NH3)3(NO2)3].
If three donor atoms of the same ligands
occupy adjacent positions at the corners of
an octahedral face, we have the facial (fac)
isomer. When the positions are around
the meridian of the octahedron, we get the
meridional (mer) isomer
37. Linkage
Isomerism
Linkage isomerism arises in a coordination compound
containing ambidentate ligand. e.g., M–NCSM-SCN
[Co(NH3)5(NO2)]Cl2 -ONO gives Red colour, -NO2 gives
Yellow colour
Coordination
Isomerism
This type of isomerism arises from the interchange of ligands
between cationic and anionic entities of different metal ions
present in a complex. e.g.,
[Co(NH3)6][Cr(CN)6][Cr(NH3)6][Co(CN)6]
Ionisation
Isomerism
This form of isomerism arises when the counter ion in a complex
salt
is itself a potential ligand and can displace a ligand which can
then
become the counter ion.
e.g., [Co(NH3)5(SO4)]Br [Co(NH3)5Br]SO4
Solvate
Isomerism
This form of isomerism is known as ‘hydrate isomerism’ in case
where water is involved as a solvent.
Solvate isomers differ by whether or not a solvent molecule is
directly bonded to the metal ion or merely present as free
solvent molecules in the crystal lattice.
[Cr(H2O)6]Cl3 (violet) solvate isomer
[Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2.H2O (grey-green).

45. Limitation of Crystal Field Theory
1. The assumption that the interaction between metal-ligand is purely
electrostatic cannot be said to be very realistic.
2. This theory takes only d-orbitals of a central atom into account. The s
and p orbits are not considered for the study.
3. The theory fails to explain the behaviour of certain metals which cause
large splitting while others show small splitting. For example, the theory
has no explanation as to why H2O is a stronger ligand as compared to
OH–.
4. The theory rules out the possibility of having p bonding. This is a serious
drawback because is found in many complexes.
5. The theory gives no significance to the orbits of the ligands. Therefore, it
cannot explain any properties related to ligand orbitals and their
interaction with metal orbitals
46. Bonding in metal carbonyl
The metal-carbon bond in metal carbonyls possess both sigma and pi character.
The M–C s bond is formed by the donation of lone pair of electrons on the carbonyl
carbon into a vacant orbital of the metal.
The M–C p bond is formed by the donation of a pair of electrons from a filled d orbital of metal into the
vacant antibonding p* orbital of carbon monoxide.
47. Importance & application of coordination
compounds
1. Metallurgical processes
• Metals can be purified by the formation and subsequent
decomposition of their coordination compounds. For example,
impure nickel is converted to [Ni(CO)4], which is decomposed to
yield pure nickel.
• Solutions of the complexes like [Ag(CN)2]– and [Au(CN)2]– can
be used for the smooth and even electroplating of metals by gold
or silver.
2. Analytical chemistry
• In analytical chemistry [Ni(DMG)2]2+ complex is used in the
detection of Ni in chocolates.
• EDTA is used in the estimation of Ca2+ and Mg2+ in hardwater.
The Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions form stable complexes with EDTA.
• Coordination compounds are used as catalysts for many industrial
48. Importance & application of coordination

3. Medicinal chemistry
• In medicine, cisplatin, a cis isomer of [Pt(Cl)2(NH3)2] is used in
the treatment of cancer.
• Chlorophyll, a pigment responsible for photosynthesis, is a
coordination compound of magnesium.
• Also, haemoglobin, the red pigment of blood which acts as oxygen
carrier is a coordination compound of iron.
4. Other uses
• In black and white photography, the developed film is fixed by
washing with hypo solution which dissolves the undecomposed
AgBr to form a complex ion, [Ag(S2O3)2]3–..
