BMW Group QSC Testertag 2013: Die Psychologie des TestensRalf Bongard
Die Einstellung eines Testers unterscheidet sich von der eines Entwicklers – unabhängig davon, ob als Rolle getrennt oder in einer Person ausgeübt. Doch psychologische Faktoren können zum Ziel-Konflikt führen und so die Effizienz der Arbeit mindern. Der Vortrag zeigt auf, wie auch Entwickler mit der richtigen Einstellung fähig sind, ihren eigenen Code effizient zu testen und welche zentrale Rolle Kommunikation im Testen hat.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
3. What is the poem about?
• Larkin writes about the
Jazz composer Sidney Bechet who
he was a big fan of.
• In the poem New Orleans (birth
place of jazz) is described, filled
with happy people and music.
• There is a positive reflection
of memories, reminded by
music, about love and happy
times.
4. The Structure
• Larkin makes the poem
have a jazz beat, and the rhyme
scheme and stanza scheme is
unusual and unexpected like a
jazz song.
• The poem is an apostrophe
because Larkin talks to
someone as though they were
present.
5. The First Stanza
• In the first stanza the
music is described with the ‘shakes
like New Orleans reflect in the water’.
This simile is split over two lines,
the word ‘shakes’ put at the
end to ripple onto the next line. There
is a theme of water in this stanza.
• The poem is set up as a cause
and effect, how the music causes
people to imagine different places.
6. The Second Stanza
• The first scenario of love
and beauty is described in the
second stanza.
• ‘Balconies, flower-baskets and
quadrilles’ are romantic and
pretty features. A quadrille is a
square dance for couples.
• Everyone is ‘making love’ and
‘going shares’ which means
taking it easy. This is a calm,
relaxed and fun atmosphere.
7. The Third Stanza
• The third stanza is about
the darker side of New Orleans.
‘Storyville’ is the red-light district.
• Larkin describes the ‘sporting-house girls’ (prostitutes)
as ‘like circus tigers’. Larkin places women in
a negative, degrading view that’s quite sexist. He
compares the ‘girls’ as animals, however they
are tamed because they are being controlled.
Before this the ‘tigers’ were wild and
dangerous.
• Larkin refers to the bible that states ‘who
can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far
above rubies’.
• If women were priced above rubies this could
mean that they were expensive.
8. The Fourth Stanza
• In this stanza Larkin
describes the wannabes, that sit in
the audience. ‘Manques’ are
would-be scholars. The word also
meaning ‘to lack’ in French, the
scholars unfulfilled of their dreams.
• Larkin uses a simile ‘like old
plaids’ to describe the
audience. Plaids could mean
they are interwoven and engrossed
into the music as its close to them.
9. The Fifth Stanza
• This stanza describes
how music affects Larkin himself.
He uses the pronouns ‘me’ and ‘’my’.
• The music makes him feel the way
love is said to make people feel.
However this could be a paradox
because he thinks he loves music,
but doesn’t know because
he’s never loved.
• ‘Like an enormous yes’ is a
caesura, this making an emphasise
on Larkin’s positive view.
10. The Sixth Stanza
• Larkin says that music
understands him, and speaks to him
like a person; it is the ‘natural noise
of good’.
• ‘Long-haired grief and scored pity’,
implies that when Larkin listens
to music he forgets his problems.
This relates to the African Americans,
how jazz music was based on their
music and ‘scored pity’ is a pun
on a musical score, referring to the
pity felt when listening to this genre.
11. Comparison – Love Songs In Age
• Larkin wrote the poem
about an elderly widow who
finds the sheet music of some
songs she used to play when
she was young, and the cello
plays a version of Bechet’s blues
as a nostalgic song making
her relive memories.
• Both poems are about music
and how they relate to memories
and love.
12. Comparison – An Arundel Tomb
• In this poem Larkin has
a positive view on love and life, with
a happier attitude compared to his
usual themes.
• Love lasts through time,
whether this be as a sculptural
tomb or in the form of music.
