The document discusses several Enlightenment thinkers and their ideas about government:
- Thomas Hobbes believed people were naturally wicked and that a strong sovereign authority was needed to enforce laws and maintain order. He advocated for absolute power to the sovereign through a social contract.
- John Locke believed in natural rights but agreed people were brutish in the state of nature. He favored a representative government and believed the social contract was between the people and the king, allowing revolt if rights were violated.
- Montesquieu developed the theory of separation of powers that became the basis for the US Constitution. He opposed absolute monarchy and favored the English system of government.

The Philosophes (Enlightenment Thinkers)Tom Richey
During the Age of Enlightenment, the "philosophes" (French for philosopher) championed enlightened values of empiricism, freedom, science, reason, progress, and religious toleration. The Philosophes hailed from several European nations, such as France (Voltaire, Diderot, Montesquieu, Rousseau), Prussia (Kant), Scotland (Smith), and the United States (Jefferson, Franklin, Paine).
This PowerPoint presentation was designed to accompany a lecture on the Enlightenment for courses in Western Civilization, World History, and European History.

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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. 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. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

if an argument were to arise
11. State of Nature

nature

liberty and property existed and could never be
taken away
- People could govern themselves because they have
reason
12. Social Contract
- Believed it was an agreement between the people
and the king

peaceful and happy; when people began to claim
ownership of property, inequality, murder and war
was the result
22. Social Contract
- Meant to alleviate the problems that society has
created for us
- Man should never be forced to give up their natural
rights to a king, but instead give them up to the
whole community
23. Purpose of Government

- Everyone voted to express their opinions and make
the laws of the land
