Gestalt psychology emphasizes that the whole of anything is greater than the sum of its parts. It was introduced in contrast to structuralism, which claimed complex perceptions could be understood by breaking them into smaller parts. According to Gestalt theory, the nervous system tends to group objects that are nearby, similar, or form smooth lines. Some key Gestalt laws of organization include figure/ground, closure, proximity, continuity, and similarity. Wolfgang Kohler studied insight learning in apes, finding they could solve problems like using boxes and sticks to retrieve food, requiring understanding of concepts like stacking and tools. The cross-curricular approach reflects Gestalt principles by presenting students a holistic view of the world through integrating different subject content and contexts

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

2. Gestalt psychology or gestaltism
(German: Gestalt – "shape or form")
School of psychology founded in the 20th century that provided the
foundation for the modern study of perception. Gestalt theory
emphasizes that the whole of anything is greater than its parts. The
word Gestalt is used in modern German to mean the way a thing has
been “placed,” or “put together.” There is no exact equivalent in
English. “Form” and “shape” are the usual translations; in psychology
the word is often interpreted as “pattern” or “configuration.”
3. Gestalt theory was introduced as a contrast to at the
time dominant structuralism, which claimed that
complex perceptions could be understood through
breaking them into smaller elementary parts of
experience, like splitting graphical forms into sets of
dots or melody into sequence of sounds.
The idea of Wertheimer was that the ability to perceive
objects was an ability of the nervous system, which
tends to group together objects that are
nearby, similar, form smooth lines, form most of the
shape we can recognize.
4. Gestalt Laws of Organization
•Figure/Ground
•Closure
•Proximity
•Continuity
•Similarity
5. Figure/Ground
We tend to organize perceptions into the object being looked at (the
figure) and the background against which it appears (the ground).
6. There is a tendency in our perception to complete incomplete
figures, to fill in gaps.
Closure
7. Proximity
Parts that are close together in time or space appear to belong
together and tend to be perceived together
8. Continuity
There is a tendency in our perception to follow a direction, to connect the
elements in a way that makes them seem continuous or flowing in a
particular direction.
10. Insight Learning
Wolfgang Kohler was the first psychologist who
developed the insight learning in which he
described an experiment with apes that could use
boxes and sticks as tools to solve problem.
11. in the box problem, the banana is attached to the top of a
chimpanzee’s cage. The banana is out of reach but can be
reached by climbing upon and jumping from a box. Only one
of Kohler’s apes(Sultan)could solve this problem. A much
more difficult problem involved stacking the boxes. This
problem required the ape to stack one box on another , and
master gravitational problems by building a stable stack.
Kohler also gave the apes sticks which were used to take food
into the cage. Sultan, Kohler‘s very intelligent ape, was able to
master a two-stick problem by inserting one stick into the end
of the other in order to reach the food.
12. The important aspect of learning was not
reinforcement, but the coordination of
thinking to create new organizations.
Kohler referred to
this behavior as insight or discovery
learning.

13. the cross-curricular & critical thinking
The cross-curricular approach embodies the concept of wholeness in
learning and offers to students a “Gestalt” type view and
understanding of the world around them. Gestalt refers to the idea that
the ‘whole’ of something represents more than just the sum of its
parts.
An EFL class, for example, might involve students in researching
material about historical events they are currently studying about in
their history class and then might involve having them present their
findings in English. In one novel class an ESL teacher had students write
poems concerning mathematics principles. Simply said, the content
from other classes becomes the ‘material’ with which students come to
grip with the English language.
14. The unique thing about the cross-curricular approach
to learning is that you end up with a matrix of
activities, all supporting a central goal, while at the
same time providing a plethora of opportunities for
students to put theoretical concepts from other
disciplines into practice. This in turn makes both the
tasks and subjects meaningful. Furthermore, the
exposure and involvement aids memory retention
across disciplines. In the best light, the material is
wrapped around the student as opposed to the student
being wrapped around the material.
