Washington, D.C. and Social and Behavioral Science: The Picture for 2016 SAGE Publishing
What does 2016 hold for federally funded research into the social and behavioral sciences? Will we see new attempts to politically filter what constitutes valuable science? How will legislative calls for transparency, relevancy and open access affect you?
Michael Todd, the editor of SAGE Publishing’s Social Science Space website, and Mark Vieth, senior vice president of the Washington lobbying firm CRD Associates, tackle these and other questions in a first of a series of webinars looking at federal support and use of social and behavioral science. Vieth, a longtime staffer in the House of Representatives, is the coordinator of a national Social and Behavioral Science coalition fighting to keep all science reviewed by scientists and funded properly.
This conversation takes place shortly after the release of the White House budget proposal, always the starting point for appropriations decisions in the U.S. Congress.
This webinar series is sponsored by Social Science Space and SAGE Publishing.
As research into the applications of mindfulness progresses, both in the medical field for problems like pain and chronic illness management, and in the mental health field through therapies such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy continue to increase the empirical support for the efficacy of this approach in a variety of conditions, it behooves us to learn more about this and apply it in our own lives and practices.

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.

10. Professional Leadership
Leaders, who tend to be proactive, participate and share
leadership, and have real knowledge of what goes on in
the classroom.
11. Shared Vision and Goals
Effective schools build consensus on the aims and
values of the school, and develop a sense of community.
This provides a
• unity of purpose,
• consistency of practice,
• ownership through Collegiality and collaboration.
12. A learning Environment
• The shared vision and values determine the ethos of
the school. Effective schools have an orderly
environment and an attractive working environment,
including the display of children's work.
13. Concentration on Teaching and Learning
• Effectiveness is clearly dependent on effective classroom teaching.
• It is vital that schools focus on quality as well as the quantity of teaching and
learning.
• Such schools make
a. maximum use of learning time,
b. place an emphasis on mastery of basic skills and
c. embed an ethos around achievement – Celebrating Achievement
14. Purposeful Teaching
Quality teaching is at the heart of effective schooling.
• efficient organisation with teachers clear about their objectives.
• Students are aware of the purposes.
• Structured lessons with teachers making use of a range of explicit teaching strategies.
• Teacher who use adaptive practice to modify and adapt curriculum material to suit student individual
differences.
15. High Expectations
• Positive high expectations are one of the most important factors.
• Teachers set high standards to challenges and monitor
progress.
• High expectations also apply to teachers.
• Teachers convey and reinforce high expectations.
• Students are encouraged t use their creative imagination and
powers of problem solving.
16. Positive Reinforcement
• This was the most important element of all.
• This occurs where there is clear and fair discipline where
students feel they belong and are able to participate.
• Direct and positive feedback has a positive effect with
student behaviour and praise needs to be specific,
spontaneous and varied.
17. Monitoring Progress
• Well-established mechanisms for monitoring the progress of pupils,
classes, the school as a whole, and improvement programmes are
important features.
• Monitoring by itself has little effect but is an important ingredient in
an effective school to determine school wide progress.
• Some schools misdirect teaching through too frequent monitoring
procedures.
• The key is appropriate monitoring with feedback. Evaluating school
progress is particularly important.
18. Pupils Rights and Responsibilities
• Research indicates that there are considerable gains
to be made when pupil self esteem is raised and
when they have an active role and have
responsibility for their own learning.
19. Home School Partnership
• Supportive relations and cooperation between home
and school have positive effects.
• Effective schools not only involve parents but also
make demands on them.
• The relationship between the individual teacher and
the parent(s) is critical.
20. A Learning Organisation
• Effective schools are learning organisations where all
aspects of the school are interrelated.
• To be effective development needs to be school based
and tailored to the specific needs of the school.
• There is value in embedding staff development within a
•collegial and collaborative planning and ensuring
ideas are shared
