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.

23. “A Bit More On The Left”
Getting Students to Think About Their Learning
REFLECTION: Use Guiding Prompts:
What are you curious about?
What would you like to test?
What was the main idea?
What are the important details to remember?
How does this relate to your life?
What don’t you understand?
44. Why use them?
• Students use both their visual and
linguistic intelligences
– Approach understanding in many ways
– Use many types of writing and graphic
techniques
– Each student can select their best
medium to explore and learn new
content
(DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION!!!!)
45. Note taking becomes an
active process
– Students are invited to take notes—
it’s fun!
– Students will read their notes—they
have to in order to process for the
left side
– Students will be working with
(rehearsing) the information which
facilitates learning
– Students will actively be involved
with the information
What do students
think about it?
46. Notebooks help students
to systematically
organize as they learn
– Organization is key to the
notebook
– Concepts like
• Table of Contents
• Numbering pages
• Topic headings
– They stress the organization of
a book & they don’t lose papers
47. Notebooks become a
portfolio of individual
learning
– These are personal
– Creative
– They record student growth in
history
– They show progress
– They serve as a chronological
record of the learning and are
great for review

Interactive Notebook
• Implementation
• Notebooks can be kept in your backpack, binder or
stored in the classroom. Bring it to class every day. It
will not be in your best interest to lose it.
• Number the pages sequentially. Do not remove any
pages. Both right and left pages should be
numbered. It is important that all of us have the same
information on the same page.
• The first pages are reserved for a table of contents,
and instructions. Other information will be included as
appendices.
• Use color to help organize your information.
• Handouts, foldables and other papers should be
glued or taped in place. No staples.
• You will need other supplies: markers, glue stick,
tape, ruler, pencils, colored pencils
• Notebooks will be graded randomly using self, peer
and teacher checklists.
51. Lets Begin….
• Have students save 5-10 pages at
the front of the notebook to house
information about notebook
(rubrics,syllabus), and the
cumulative table of contents.
• Have them number the pages
immediately so that they start in
an organized fashion.
• Number each page front and back
• Odd pages on left Even pages on
the right.
• There will be no blank pages
• Pages do not get torn out!!!
52. Step 2:
Starting with the first page, number the first 50 pages.
Numbers should be small and at the top outside corner of
every page.

What are the important
details to remember?
How does this relate to
your life?
What don’t you

58. Student Handouts
• The notebook should hold everything
when possible
• Folding and gluing, cutting and
gluing are key to organization
• As students age and material
becomes too complex a separate
folder (pocket folder) can be added
to hold handouts that are multi-
paged or make a pocket foldable

63. Why use Cornell
notes?• Cornell note taking stimulates
critical thinking skills.
• Note taking helps students
remember what is said in class.
• A good set of notes can help
students work on assignments and
prepare for tests outside of the
classroom.
• Good Notes help students organize
and process data and information.
• Helps student recall by getting them
to process their notes multiple times.
