The document provides feedback on rejected shots for a magazine cover and billboard advertising. It notes issues such as negative space between subjects, subjects facing away or cut off, subjects not in character, wrong facial expressions, costumes and poses, poor lighting that does not illuminate faces, backgrounds that are too white, and shots that are the wrong aspect ratio or have lines that are not straight due to the camera angle. Overall, the feedback indicates the rejected shots do not meet conventional standards for magazine covers and billboards in terms of composition, subjects, and conveying the intended emotions or characterizations.

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.

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.

2. Negative Space
•There is too much space
between mine and Lorna's
heads this is not conventional
of a magazine front cover
•Lorna is facing away at too
strong an angle, also her
height means that I would
struggle to place features
around the image.
3. Actors not in
character
•Actors aren’t in character
•Shot is landscape and should
be portrait for a magazine
front cover
•Tim is not central in the shot
4. Negative Space
Tim’s head is cut off meaning
that even if I did erase the
background part of his hair
and head would be missing.
There is too much negative
space between the two actors,
this is not conventional for a
billboard image as I would
struggle to position text
around it.
5. Wrong Facial
Expression
Lorna’s facial expression
conveys the wrong kind of
emotion.
She also has one strand of
hair in her face which stops
the audience from seeing all
of her emotion.
Lorna is leaning slightly
forwards this would look odd if
I edited this photo with
others.
Also the way she is holding
her hands is not conventional
of a billboard or TV magazine
6. Wrong Costume
The colour white makes
Amelia look sweet and
innocent this is not the look
that we want to create as in
the trailer her character is a
femme fatale style character
7. Silouette
The lighting does not
illuminate the actors face, and
the background is too white.
The actors pose is not
meeting the stereotypes of his
character.
8. Not following
straight lines
The horizontal lines of the end
of the car park are not
straight as the camera was
held at an angle this makes
the shot look unprofessional
However, the framing and use
of rule of thirds works well.
