The document discusses using streaming video and the narrative/paraphrase technique to improve listening skills in multilevel English language classes. It recommends the Connect with English video series, which provides rich listening input. The technique involves playing video episodes, pausing frequently to narrate and paraphrase what is happening on screen to ensure student comprehension across proficiency levels. Research shows this approach improves listening comprehension over traditional ESL programs. Challenges include meeting the needs of students at different levels within the same class.
This presentation aims at introducing and evaluating some Listening and Speaking Tools ESL teachers may make use of both inside and outside the classroom.

A picture speaks a thousand words, they say. For a trainer, a video may well speak a million. But the trick to get to that ‘million’ is to have the right movie clipping. With the wide spread access to internet and consequently, websites such as Youtube, most trainers now make a religious visit to this site before any program. The point is to have the most appropriate video which can help you in achieving the program objectives.

When it comes to "live streaming a classroom" the first thing you should consider is privacy. Do you want the entire world to be able to see your live stream or just your students? Here is a shortlist of education online communication types you could consider:
School-Wide Announcement (ideal for live stream)
Public School Meeting (ideal for live stream)
Grade Wide Online Session (ideal for private live stream)
Private Classroom Lesson (ideal for online meeting technology)
Small Breakout Sessions (only available with video conferencing software like Zoom)
One on One Meeting (ideal for online meeting technology)
As you can see, the list above goes from public-facing live streams to private online meetings. It's important to start by considering your audience and the type of live stream or online meeting you want to host.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people.
