Introduction
The education system in the United States has undergone significant changes over the years with a critical focus on inclusion of major changes within the curriculum influenced by the changing learning needs and technology integration. This is having a major influence on the changes that are being implemented within the education system in America. Within the educational context, an important aspect to consider is the quality which outlines better considerations that can be included in a learning environment that promote positive development. The major changes that have been embedded within the United States education system have focused on improving the knowledge of students through the integration of teaching mechanisms that promote diversity and individuality. The context associated provides a detailed evaluation of the major changes in education within the United States. The United States education system has integrated technology and other important learning approaches which have sought to diversify the quality of the classroom. Diversity within the social environment has been essential in improving the quality of education. Co-curricular approaches have been integrated creating highly diversified quality education.
The state of education in the United States has integrated the input of all participants in education with a key focus on providing the most effective education that meets the needs of learners, especially in a highly complex professional environment. Education is a necessity and a symbol of a free mind, which help in defining essential elements that define a successful human development. Knowledge is not limited to the specific concepts that are taught in schools but also the interactive environment, which is based on the relationships that exist between individuals (Witte, 2004). Having a positive interactive environment outlines essential processes, which are critical in shaping an individual development both mentally and psychologically. Education offers a platform where individuals can understand crucial aspects in life as well as providing an essential background where it is possible to improve individual knowledge and abilities. It is very difficult to take education seriously without understanding the vital role it plays in defining lives.
Recent Education Background
The American education system has sought to integrate technology in the classroom to improve the learning needs among learners in a different environment. However, the influence of technology among students has created a significant impact on the wellbeing of learners who have integrated technology in their learning. As a result, they h.
Teacher participation in organisational development efforts: the case of seco...Premier Publishers
The study examined the extent of teacher participation in different areas of decision-making in secondary schools in Bulawayo Province of Zimbabwe and the impact of this involvement on school improvement through organisational development. A survey using self-administered questionnaires with a Likert-type scale assessing teachers’ actual and preferred participation in decision-making was employed. The sample comprised 200 teachers and 20 school heads. Of the sample respondents, 78% were female and 22% were male. Data were collected through semi-structured questionnaires. Descriptive statistical analysis was used to interpret data. The study indicated that the actual teacher participation in decisions concerning learners was fairly high, but quite low in respect of managerial decisions. The difference between the actual and the preferred levels of participation showed high levels of deprivation. Greater involvement in issues concerning learners and the lower levels of participation in respect of managerial issues were attributable to such dimensions as failure to adopt new decisions, passive resistance by teachers, bureaucracy and lack of knowledge by heads. The significance of the results of this study lies on the implications for school improvement practice: heads of schools should enhance teacher participation not only in issues relating to pedagogy but managerial issues as well.
To put it in context - we’re talking workplace transfer of learning.
Numerous studies have found that only 10-20% of learning is transferred back to the workplace after a learning initiative. With so many different terms being used in learning as to how we can solve this problem it can be confusing to navigate.
Take a look to see what has been done traditionally in this field, and what should be done to facilitate behavioural change in the workplace after a learning initiative.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

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.

3. The Concept of Change
“ Change is an alteration of an organization’s environment
structure, technology or people.” “Change can be
described as the adoption of an innovation, where the
ultimate goal is to improve outcomes through an alteration
of practices”. Robbins & Delenzo (2001:230)
Bell& Ritchie (2002:157) state that change is the way
people improve. Fullan (1992:22) claims, “ Change is a
process of learning new ideas and things. It is learning to
do and learning to understand something new”.
4. The Concept of Change
Change is a process, not an event. It can
be planned or unplanned and can be
influenced by forces. Robbins &
DeCenzo (2001:231) pointed out that
factors that drive change are both
external and internal forces.
5. The Driving Forces of Change
The ability to navigate the never-ending cycle
of change is a cornerstone to success
especially in education.
7. The Driving Forces of Change
Change can be hard on leaders and team
members alike if you don’t have a good
understanding of the two primary forces of
change: external forces and internal forces.
8. The Driving Forces of Change
External forces can be very challenging.
These are changes that we usually don’t
choose.
In education, political, economic, social,
technological, and environmental are
driving forces that causes change in
education .
9. POLITICAL
Both private and public institutions rely on
funding for hiring personal, building and
maintaining facilities and equipment. Aspects
in education depend on local, state and national
political standards.
10. ECONOMIC
Nations financing
education expect an
economic return from
educated students
contributing to the
country’s economy with
global competition abilities
in technical fields.
11. SOCIAL
Society has its own expectations about the
aims and objectives that should be considered
in education. It also has a perception of what
the product of the school system should look
like.
12. TECHNOLOGICAL
At present, modern technology demand an
interactive, effective and implemented system
of education. Classrooms need technology
integration as it serves as requisite among
learning especially this time of pandemic. The
technological multimedia use influences among
students.
13. ENVIRONMENTAL
Research has found that
learning environments play a crucial role in student
success. Students who study in a positive
learning environment have been shown to be more
motivated, engaged, and have a higher overall learning
ability.
Nevertheless, environment is a great attribute to
the success of the learner/employee as well as in
organization or institution. It offers a positive ambiance
to feel motivated and engaged.
14. The Driving Forces of Change
Internal forces of change arise from inside the
organization and relate to the internal
functioning of the organization.
In education, some of these are vision, values,
culture, core expertise, leadership,
performance, and employees. Financial
resources, physical resources and human
resources are also considered.
15. Educational
Educational change aims school
improvement. Its ultimate goal is the
improvement of student learning, learning
conditions and / or learning processes.
16. The Purpose of Change in
Schools
The primary purpose for change in
schools is to improve the instructional
program.
17. Reasons for educational
change?
There are three reasons:
INCREASED GLOBALIZATION
The effects of Globalization on education bring
faster developments in technology and
communications are foreseeing changes within school
systems across the world as ideas, values and
knowledge, changing the roles of students and
teachers, and producing a shift in society from
industrialization towards an information-based society.
18. Reasons for educational
change?
ADVANCEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY
Advancement in technology lead to new
ways of doing, learning and new types of
knowledge. Thus, what is required are unique
talents, skills and knowledge, the ability to
adapt to changes and creativity-and of coarse
educational change that aims to cultivate this
diversity and encourage students to pursue
their strengths (Zhao, 2011).
19. Reasons for educational
change?
DEVELOPMENTS IN RESEARCH INTO TEACHING
LEARNING PROCESS
Developments research lead to increased
knowledge about the effectiveness of teaching and
learning approaches. Research can help find solutions
to particular problems arising in classroom or school.
Underpin professional learning of knowledge, skills
and understanding, connect with sources of
information and networks of professional support.
20. Therefore, managing change involves
identifying needs, planning, implementing plan
and evaluating the success of the change.
