An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
3. Today
You will be recapping single camera theory, then continuing to
write your work.
You will learn how to improve your written assignments, then get
a friend to peer assess your report and identify areas where you
can improve.
4. By the end of today, you
• MUST understand the difference between describing and
explaining a subject
• SHOULD explain how cinematography is used to create mood
and atmosphere in a film
• COULD be able to analyse how filming and editing techniques
are used by film-makers
5. What do we think a single camera
production is?
7. What are the benefits of filming a
video with just 1 camera?
• Cheaper
• Easier with a small crew
• Easier with a small budget
• However, it does take longer but…
• Its also more creative and liberating.
8. What are film genres?
Are another way we have of categorising films based on their
themes and stories.
9. What do we expect to see in a
horror film or programme ?
10. What do we expect to see in an
action film or programme ?
23. Today
You will use your knowledge of single camera techniques to
continue to write your report.
But first….
we are going to look at what makes a good report, identifying
what deeper thinking is and how we can use it to improve our
work.
25. Is it how long the report is?
• Don’t chase a high word count. Just because
you’ve written a lot doesn’t mean you’ve
written it well.
• The best reports focus on the content they’ve
been asked to explain in the brief, not other
areas of interest to the writer.
26. Should it be an in depth explanation
of everything you can think of?
• Stay focused on what the brief asks
you to explain. These should be
clearly bullet pointed in the brief.
27. Stay focused on what’s being asked
of you….
• All the text marked in red was
‘extra’ content the learner
wrote about, none of which
was relevant to the assignment.
• Did they get any marks for any
of this?
28. So what’s the main difference
between a pass level report, and
a higher grade?
29. The main difference is how in
depth you explain it…
Do you….
Describe
Explain
Evaluate
30. What does the word describe
mean?
• Cover the main points only
• We say ‘what’ something is.
• We use basic language to give a basic outline on a
subject
If I asked you to describe the purpose of music videos
you might say:
“The purpose of music videos is to
advertise a song.”
31. What does the word explain
mean?
• Give an in depth account of the subject
• We say ‘what’ something is, then explain why we do it,
how we do it, justifying our arguments with examples.
• We use explanatory language to build an in-depth
persuasive argument about a subject, using phrases
like ‘because’, ‘for example’, ‘although’, ‘this shows’ to
prove your points.
32. If I asked you to explain the purpose of music videos you
might say:
What does the word explain
mean?
“The main purpose of a music video is to advertise a single for a music artist or
band because video is a great medium for record labels to reach a wider
audience than traditional radio plays, especially since the advent of mobile &
broadband video. Although the main aim of the video is to convert views, either
online or via DTV, to sales of the single music videos also help provide greater
exposure for the artist, which could lead to increased album and merchandising
sales as well. For example, Katy Perry is a prolific recording artist whose music
videos are often seen as events themselves, helping her to build and reach a
wide fan base. Her music videos have over 11 million views and she has 12
number 1 singles. This shows her music videos have helped promote her to a
wide audience, and therefore helped her career and sales.

33. What does the word evaluate
mean?
• Investigating the strengths and weaknesses of something
• Having a reasoned argument with yourself, and drawing
conclusions at the end.
• Using examples to prove your points.
34. If I asked you to evaluate the purpose of music videos you
might say:
What does the word evaluate
mean?
“…..Whilst music videos are a good way to promote an artist visually to an
audience, they rely on the quality of the film-maker as much as the quality of
the recording artists single. A good video director can make a bad song into
an interesting visual experience for the viewer, but likewise a bad director can
ruin a good singles chances of success by creating a video which does not
work well with the music. It could be argued that music videos are only as
strong as their weakest component; be it the video or the song. In fact recent
studies by Nielson have shown that there is little chance of someone buying a
single if they dislike the music; therefore the video itself can only build upon
the potential success of a single, it cannot make it into a good song.
35. Today
You are going to peer assess one of your classmates music
video theory assignment.
I want you to read their report and clearly mark up all the
areas where:
• they have described it
• They have explained it
• They have evaluated it
• Where they have used examples
• Where they have used examples to prove their points
Use the grading sheet I have given you as a guide, filling it in.
36. Task 2
Read through your feedback – what has the assessor said?
If you think the feedback is harsh I want you to remember –
whoever is grading you will be fair but sometimes it can be spirit
crushing getting disappointing feedback.
37. Task 3
• Make a plan of action; write down how you need to improve
your work.
38. Task 4
• Begin to redraft your work taking into account all the feedback
you have received.
• Use this as an opportunity to improve it to get the grades you
want.
• Peer assessment can help you to solve a lot of problems
before its too late.
