Self-confidence is one of the biggest obstacles for women in taking a seat at the table. In order to close the gender gap, we need more women to aim for positions of leadership. However, a lack of confidence can hold women back from everything to voicing an opinion to applying for a higher position. Addressing how to overcome these barriers is a critical issue no matter what level you are in your career. In this interactive workshop, we will explore what gets in the way to self-confidence, how the lack of confidence impacts women's leadership and contributes to the leadership gap, and what you can do to get more if it to get to the next level in your career.

5. Mindful Meditation Experience (Mindful Practice)
What did you notice about your meditation experience this week?
EXAMPLE:
Here is an example of a MARJfrom a painting class.......remember, this can be about anything..... The whole purpose of this assignment is to start getting in the frame of mind that when you encounter a stressor in life, you automatically default to this mindful model to help become responsive vs. reactive. Therefore, this is done weekly with that goal in mind......the chapters that you read can be an inspiration for your journal but honestly, you can apply your weekly journal to ANY mindful experience you choose to participate in, it doesn't have to be directly linked to the chapter ......examples of what you may journal about: breathing, eating, cooking, walking, exercising, gardening, journaling, painting etc......
Mindful Awareness Reflection Journal
1. Acknowledge
Describe your experience
I am sitting before a blank canvas with a palette of paint colors directly in front of me and a large and small paint brush to my right. I am surrounded by both friends and strangers - this is a painting class where you can drink wine and socialize while you paint. There is a stage in front of me with the instructor and her blank canvas (a camera magnifies it to a larger screen so that all of the patrons can see) and a picture of what we will be painting is located above her canvas (an impressionist painting of a park in Paris at night)
2. Intentional Attention
Describe what you noticed
BREATH: My breath is rapid because I am both excited and talking to all of my friends.....as well as nervous....I am NOT artistic!
BODY: I am sitting on a stool with my legs hooked around the legs of the chair. My body is relaxed, I am sitting up straight and my arms are resting on the counter in front of me. The instructor is in front of me so my neck feels comfortable, not twisted or at an awkward angle
EMOTIONS: I am very happy to be with friends but also excited and nervous, I have never done this before so I am definitely stepping outside my comfort zone
THOUGHTS: One of my good friends right next to me is a graphic artist so I'm feeling at a distinct disadvantage in the art department, I am also with people I don't know so I am thinking about what they might think of my work
3. Accept Without Judgment
Describe judgment; acceptance
As we progress through the painting (this is a 3 hour class) I at first am looking at my friend's painting (the graphic artist - it's really good) and the woman next to me trying not to compare. I start to judge my initial lines on the canvas (they look pretty subpar compared to ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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.

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.
2. Disclaimer of sorts..... This presentation was done with my fellow counselling students in mind, the poor folks that have been stuck with me for the past three years... It is missing a lot of the personal waffle that makes this slightly more coherent, as that was adlibbed on the night of the presentation. You may like or find something of use in this presentation, or you may not. I am adding this to the online world so I that can upload it to my blog and keep it there to remind me of my views on counselling and counselling studies at this moment in time. I have probably made a total mess of some metaphors, analogies and whatnots. Read on if you like .......
3. Hey! How did I get here? Well not actually here, I know how I got here tonight. I meant here as in ‘On the Counselling Diploma’. I stumbled upon the level 1 course after seeing it mentioned in the paper or something like that, I can’t actually remember where.. whoops. I just know the idea got stuck in my head somehow. I remember my sister had to take/make me sign up and I was disappointed to find out it was full up! That disappointment was quickly followed by relief, phew I escaped! Anyhoo I got on the course after all (obviously), after some rejigging ( or a hit on the person that stole my place). And so it begins.......... Dam dam der! (meant to sound sinister)
4. So Why Counselling? The main motivation was to get my brain back into action after bombing out of university, looking after the mum and generally feeling like I was just going through the motions in life. In all honesty though, I wasn’t thinking that deeply about it back then. Counselling was just one of the many topics that I could of picked. Counselling would be a piece of cake, it is just like talking and stuff after all. Although I don’t actually like talking about myself......... I hope I have made it clear that I had no idea what I was letting myself in for, I may of said the right things at the time, but I certainly wasn’t ‘feeling’ them at all.
5. Hmmm they all seem to get it As the course progressed and I reached the diploma level, I still wasn’t ‘getting it’ . The talk was being talked, but I wasn’t feeling that counselling was something I could actually wrap my head around. If I couldn’t understand the benefits myself, how would I be able to work with clients? Do I even like listening to people that much? Am I any good at it? Will I ever stop feeling sick/terrified of bloody skills practice? Did the students that had been through their own personal therapy have more of a grasp on the concepts because of their experiences with therapy? Was I really putting in the effort to give this a real chance ?
6. Opening that can of worms Oh? I am not actually ‘Perfect, Fine and ah hem normal’ Which is something I already knew, but putting it out there was a whole other ballgame. Looking back at my blog in the very beginning, I took a very theoretical approach to my counselling studies. Wanting to know how everyone else felt, not realising or even thinking to ask myself how I was feeling. I just found it all ‘fascinating’ or ‘interesting’. I was focusing on everything and everyone around me and not bothering to look within. To be honest just writing ‘look within’ would of made me retch and think ‘what an idiot’, ‘what is she harping on about’ ‘bloody hippy’. Light bulb moment after doing my own past, present and future window artwork
9. Peeling back the layers The onion (metaphorical me) got peeled and guess what? It does in fact feel bloody awful at times. You get the Highs of the Light bulb moments. Which makes certain things clear and you have a sense of self awareness that just wasn’t there before. Then you get the Lows . Unfortunately once you turn that self awareness button ‘ ON ’ there is no ‘ OFF’ button and that self awareness follows you round like an uninvited guest at times. Once you start peeling back those layers, there is no stopping you, well certainly not in my case.
14. My old personal philosophy “ My personal philosophy is....Life is full of potholes, you might fall down them. So pack a torch, rope and crampons, climb the fuck out and get ready to do it all again.” Sounds good? Does it? Unfortunately life is not that simple and its much easier said than done.
15.
16. The Integrative Approach Just what is the integrative approach and how does it work? I have been my own guinea pig on this and have come up with several ways of trying to explain it.....
17. The Smoothie Imagine that each type of therapy is a fruit and the therapeutic process is a blender. The fruit can work well on its own, but together they can work in a different way. For each new client you can make a new smoothie. The outcome is not unknown as you know your getting a smoothie.
18. The Porridge Test Goldilocks is looking for the perfect porridge therapy, but what is perfect for her? Bowl One : 3 spoons of CBT, 1 spoon of PC and a big splash of Psychodynamic. Bowl Two : 1 spoon of CBT, 1 dollop of Gestalt, 3 spoons of PC and a small splash of psychodynamic. Bowl Three : 5 spoons of PC and a splash of psychodynamic. Which one? After all that searching for the perfect bowl of porridge, it had gone bloody cold. Although you know all the ingredients involved, you have to remember that most important is goldilocks and not her porridge.
19. Hmmm I think I like it. If we hadn’t been studying an integrative approach, I believe my own personal development would of been stunted. I wasn’t keen on the idea of psychodynamic or CBT, I think it was the language used in both. PC (Person Centred) sounded okay, just listening right? The more I learnt the more I could see the value in each therapy, how they worked individually but more importantly how they worked together. I think the ‘Inner Child’ work really resonated with me and I have learnt a lot from it, the ability to use it in the ‘here and now’ has made it a very valuable tool for my particular toolbox. Each element used in the integrative approach has had an impact on me and I will whizz through them now.

21. I would of never gone here.... Peeking inside wee me at age 11, more painful than I had first imagined
33. I got it Backwards I may of started this course with the wrong thinking hat on, but I have begun to realise that although I wasn’t sure why I started this course or at least why I thought I started this course, I can now see why I stayed. Looking back at myself and within myself has enabled me to see the way forward. “ Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
34. Shit Sandwich Life is a shit sandwich. But if you've got enough bread, you don't taste the shit. ~Jonathan Winters Life does not have to be a shit sandwich and you don’t have to eat it. Hopefully keeping a check on your mental health will one day just be like popping into the dentist, no stigma attached.
