This document discusses conferring with students and contains several sections on counterfeit beliefs about conferring, the RIP model for conference structure, instructional aspects of conferring, and what students in the class can be doing while the teacher is conferring with individual students. The key points are that conferring should be done daily in reading and writing, the purpose is to discuss students' reading and writing processes, and effective conferring involves reviewing past work, instruction on strategies, and setting goals for future work.

Professional Development for Learning Advisors: Facilitating the intentional reflective dialogue (Talk T15)
Presenter: Satoko Kato, Kanda Institute of Foreign Languages, Japan
This presentation reports on a study which explored how “intentional reflective dialogue” with an interlocutor can deepen Learning Advisors’ (LAs’) reflective learning in terms of their professional development. As one of the key roles of LAs in self-directed language learning is to activate learners’ reflective learning processes, it is worthwhile for LAs to experience reflective learning process themselves as a part of their professional development program. Eight LAs, with experience ranging from one to three years, participated in this study. Each had two interviews with the interlocutor (the presenter). Although most of the LAs usually reflect on themselves and have conversations about advising with colleagues, the reflective dialogue which was intentionally structured for training purpose resulted in LAs being engaged in a different type of self-reflective approach. The results of the study and the future possibility for developing an on-going LA training program will be discussed in the presentation.
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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
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. Conferring with Students
Should be done daily in reading
Should be done daily in writing
What is the purpose?
2. Counterfeit Beliefs
If I meet with small
groups, I don’t
have to meet with
individuals.
If I don’t meet with
every child every
day, I am not doing
a good job .
I should do a
running record
every time I meet
with a child.
I should talk about
all the errors a
student makes
while he or she is
with me.
3. Counterfeit Beliefs (continued)
I have to take an
expert stance in
each conference.
I need to focus on
skills and fluency,
comprehension
comes later.
When I am talking
to a child about his
or her learning, I
am conferencing.
I’ve tried conferring
suggestions and
they just don’t
work.
4. Counterfeit Beliefs (continued)
I need to confer
with every student
the same number
of times for the
same amount of
time each week.
I need to give the
rest of the class
something “to do”
so they’ll stay busy
and leave me alone
so I can confer.

7. Instruction, Insights, Intrigue
Reader shares his application of
current thinking strategies he is using
Student will discuss specific
wonderings you are having or he
himself is having
Discuss something that you both
noticed during the conference
8. Plan, Progress, Purpose
Reader shares what he will work on
before you meet again
Reader might consider how a strategy
might stretch him to better understand
his own reading process
End with a discussion of purpose and
leave the reader thinking about his
next steps as a reader
