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.

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.

6. Work and education
-How would you feel if you had to go to two different schools every day?
We would feel bad because you spend a lot of time studying and you will get bored.
And because you won't have time to be with your friends
-Would you like to study this hard?
In one hand yes, because if you study hard you will get a good job, but in the other
hand no, because you can be stressed.
-Why do we go to school? What is education for?
We go to the school to study much because we need a good education to manage a
good job.
Education is for manage the job that you want in the future, and to spend all you life
working in a job that you like and that is well paid.
-Are there things you should not learn at school, but should learn from yourfamily
and friends? For example, who should teach you about politics/sex/education/how
to deal with money/religion/the risks from smoking or taking drugs?
Yes, sometimes people near you teaches you new thing of the life that you didn't know
before and now a days are important to know about the life.

8. Too much TV?
-For us the TV is not much
important , but we prefer to do
other things like hang out with
our friends,...
-Itwould be good because we
have other things to do like study,
do sport, homework,.../We
would give up Disney Channel
because weprefer other ones.
-No, wedon't like the TV adverts,
it is better to see all the
programmewithout adverts/Yes,
some of them have an influence
on us, for example: Nike shoes,
football matches or clothes
adverts.
- Most programmes do
-The TV programmes in the past
were black and white, now they
are all colour TVs, now they have
special effects, and now there are
more TV programmes becausein
the pastthere were only 2
channels.
-We think that in the future
people aren’tgoing to see as
much TV as today, because of the
new technologies that are going
to be in the future, the people
aren’t going to see much TV.
9. Too old to have children?
-In our opinion men and women can
have children at the age that they
want, but this has advantages and
disadvantages.
The advantages of having babies in
their 50s and 60s are that the baby is
going to have a good attention, and
there are not going to be economical
problems.
The disadvantages of having babies at
50 or 60 are that the baby isn't going
to pass much time with his parents, and
it is difficult to have children at this age,
because the mum is not prepared
physically.
The advantages of having children at 17
or in your 20s are that the baby gives
you maturity and teaches you a big
responsibility.
The disadvantages of having children in
your teens are that the baby is not
going to be well looked after by the
mother, and there can be economic
problems. In addition, if the mother
takes drugs during the pregnancy, she
is condemning her unborn infant to
neurological problems.
We think that being older or younger is
not a problem for the baby, but having
a suitable home or everything
necessary for the child’s well-being is.

11. The time stops next to the
Guggenheim
The experience is such that the breath is suspended for a few seconds,
as if time was stopped. Just follow the tiny figure standing over La
Salve, which makes the event greater, even more than the bridge and
the Guggenheim Museum looking from the shore of the river.
The jumper becomes the only person who exists within a mile radius. He
stands carefully on the platform to rethink their jump again. The time
has come and it will take less than three seconds.
No, you are not going to fall, although it looks like the edge of a 28-
meter-cliff , and a seven-floor-building height. The moment has arrived,
the cliff diver places his arms, and prepares to enter the water at about
90 miles per hour.
The Red Bull Cliff Diving is a great event, impossible to forget, and this
event is not everywhere, only in famous places
