Europe Day commemorates the Schuman Declaration of 1950 which proposed the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC). The ECSC established the first European institution and was the origin of the modern European Union. It placed French and German coal and steel production under a common High Authority, making future war between the two countries unthinkable. The Schuman Declaration led to the establishment of supranational European institutions and greater economic and political integration across Europe. Europe Day has been celebrated since 1985 to mark the Schuman Declaration and the beginnings of European unity and cooperation.

CELEBRATING EUROPE DAY – The 9th of May, Europe Day, is celebrated in various forms in most states of the European Union and surrounding countries such as Turkey. Due to the political nature of the day, it sees teaching people about the European Union and speaking in support of European integration. It is the occasion for activities and festivities that bring Europe closer to its citizens and peoples of the Union closer to one another. Accordingly, our school's activities include students' and teachers' participation in numerous events, debates, workshops and quizzes celebrating the launch, in 1950, of the process that eventually culminated in the formation of the EU. What is more, we regularly attend various lectures and presentations that critically and systematically teach us about different economic aspects of European integration, about the positive and negative sides of EU's single market as well as about legislation and home affairs, common policies on trade and the free movement of people, goods, services and capital within the EU.

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.

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.
2. Europe Day is a celebration that takes place every
May 9th in the European Union, named in memory
of the Schuman Declaration. The French foreign
minister, Robert Schuman, took the first step
towards the integration of European states
proposing that coal and steel from Germany (then
West Germany) and France (and other countries to
adhere) to submit to a joint administration,
promoting the creation of the first European
Community: the coal and steel, being hence the
origin of the current European Union.
The importance of this proposal made in 1950, five years after the
surrender of the Nazi regime and to a Europe devastated by World War
II, is that in addition to submitting the two indispensable productions of
the arms industry to a single authority, countries participating in this
organization would find great difficulty in case you want to start a war
between them.
3. The commemoration of this date has been
taking place since 1985, after the approval
by the Heads of State and Government at
the European Council. Despite being the
only official day of celebration in the
European Union, it is considered a business
day and celebrations organized by Member
States do not usually equate to those
performed on the occasion of national
holidays in each state. So while nationally
this holiday is not usually find much echo, it
is common to see the education sector and
some organizations perform specific
activities to commemorate the day.
4. Robert Schuman, French Foreign Minister, made
the statement that bears his name on May 9th,
1950. It proposed the creation of a European Coal
and Steel whose members would share the
production of coal and steel.
CECA (originally formed by France, West Germany,
Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg)
was the first of a series of supranational institutions
that would become what is now the European
Union.
Historical Context
In 1950, five years after the end of World War I, European nations were still
struggling to overcome its ravages.
European governments, determined that the war between France and
Germany, historic rivals, would be "not only unthinkable, but materially
impossible “ due to the pooling of coal and steel production.
5. It was thought, rightly, that the fusion of economic
interests help to raise the standard of living and will
be the first step towards a united Europe. Joining the
ECSC was open to other countries.
Key quotes:
"World peace can not be safeguarded without the
making of creative efforts proportionate to the
dangers which threaten it.“
"Europe will not be made all at once or according to a
set: it will be built through concrete achievements
which first create a de facto solidarity."
"The pooling of the coal and steel (...) change the
destinies of those regions which have long been
devoted to the manufacture of weapons, which they
themselves have been the first victims."
Watch Fair (Salon de l'Horloge);

gave the speech.
6. There have been many people who have
participated in the construction of the European
Communities, first, and the European Union (EU)

negotiator of the treaties between the end of World War II and the beginning of the Cold
War (Council of Europe , NATO, ECSC, etc. . ). In addition , it was he who first proposed
the May 9th, 1950 , a project of European integration, which would create the European
Coal and Steel Community. It was also the first former president of the European
Parliamentary Assembly (1958-1960) , the current European Parliament.
9. Alcide de Gasperi (1881 - 1954) ran Italy between 1945 and 1953 eight successive

European Commission.
Spinelli (1901 - 1982) was an Italian politician, staunch advocate of European
federalism. His most important role was held as an advocate of the integration
process happened during the decades following World War II.
10. The single institutional framework of the European
Union (EU) is the concrete expression of the principle
of the uniqueness of this international organization.
Institutional organization is made up of institutions
and bodies to which the Member States confer
competences to the exercise by Community their
powers and sovereignty. It seeks certain institutional
decisions and actions come from supranational bodies
which will apply in all Member States and disavowing

17. The European flag is a symbol of not
only the EU but also of European
unity and identity in a wider sense.
The European flag consists of 12
yellow stars arranged in a circle on a
blue background. The stars symbolize
the ideals of unity, solidarity and
harmony between the people of
Europe.
The number of stars has nothing to do
