The document summarizes how the author's media product uses and develops conventions of real magazines. It follows many conventions such as including a masthead, date, price, and barcode. However, it also challenges some conventions such as placing the taglines across the bottom instead of left and right. Overall, the author strives to make their magazine look realistic while putting their own spin on some design elements.

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.
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.

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.

1. In what ways does your media
product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real
media products?
2. Simple and easy to Simple colour scheme

the magazine’s name Title of feature article
dominates page and

different font to the
rest of the text on the
Taglines found on left page
and/or right of page
Barcode used
3. My front cover An example front cover
By using simple fonts I have used the convention
of an Indie magazine. Another convention is the
title of magazine being at the top, and using the
colour scheme of my magazine. However I have
developed them slightly by putting a coloured bar
behind the masthead.
My magazine follows the forms of a typical
magazine by putting the date and price small
underneath the magazine’s name. I have also used
a barcode which follows the forms of a typical
magazine, however a slight development may be
placing it at the top of the page rather than the
bottom. I did this because I felt it worked with the
layout of my page.
The title of the feature article dominates the page
and uses a different font to the rest of the text on
the page, this uses the convention of a typical Indie
music magazine. As well as this, a simple colour
scheme including black has been used, also
following the conventions of an Indie magazine.
On a typical front cover the taglines are found on
left and/or right of page, however on mine I have
put them in a bar across the bottom, challenging
the forms of magazine layout. I have done this
because I have seen a magazine do this
before, although it is not common, I feel that it
works well with my structured style.
4. Text is in
columns and Masthead at top
the page of page and colour
numbers have scheme has been
been listed followed
Use of multiple
images
List of articles
5. My contents page An example contents page
On a typical music magazine the masthead is
found at top of page and colour scheme of the
magazine has been followed, my magazine uses
these conventions in order to keep it looking
realistic.
A convention of a contents page is to have the
text in columns and to list the page numbers, I
have used this convention to help shape my
magazine to look like what you would expect to
find.
My magazine follows the convention of the use
of multiple images. I chose to do this because it
makes the page more visually interesting and
my target audience are very focused on the
visual aspects of things.
A convention of a contents page is to list the
articles that you will find inside the magazine, I
have used this convention because I feel it
continues to add realism to the magazine.
6. A roughly even
text to image ratio
Large
dominating
masthead at
top
People in the
picture(s) match Writing in
the genre columns
7. My DPS An example DPS
I have used the typical music magazine
convention of using photographs of people that
match the genre of my magazine. This is good
because it keeps the target audience known
throughout the magazine, making it more
engineered to appeal to that specific target
audience.
In my magazine I have used the form of writing
in columns to make the layout look like a typical
magazine. By keeping the text split up into
smaller sections, it makes the writing into more
manageable, easier to read sections so that the
reader keeps interest in the article.
On a typical double page spread a convention is
to have a large dominating masthead at top of
the page, and I have used this convention in my
magazine to keep it looking as realistic as
possible.
A roughly even text to image ratio is a form
which most double page spread use, I have
chosen to follow this convention because if
something works well, then why change it.
