The document discusses challenges with India's education system and unemployment among graduates. It states that according to a World Bank report, 90% of Indian graduates are unemployed because the education system has not changed since 1970 and does not provide skills relevant for the current job market. Both the government and private sector are unable to provide jobs for all graduates. The education system needs reforms to equip students with skills that can lead to employment. The document also provides tips for successful interview preparation, including researching the employer, common interview questions, and different types of interviews.

Resort Management is the comprehensive and strategic oversight of all operations within a resort property, aimed at delivering exceptional guest experiences and maximizing profitability. It involves the efficient coordination of various departments, including accommodations, food and beverage, recreational facilities, guest services, and administration.
A successful resort management team ensures that all aspects of the resort are functioning seamlessly to create a welcoming and enjoyable environment for guests. This includes maintaining the highest standards of customer service, implementing effective marketing and sales strategies, managing reservations and bookings, coordinating housekeeping and maintenance services, and overseeing financial operations.
Resort managers are responsible for setting the overall vision and direction of the property, developing strategic plans to attract and retain guests, and ensuring that the resort meets or exceeds guest expectations. They work closely with department heads and staff to provide ongoing training and guidance, fostering a culture of exceptional service and professionalism.
In addition to guest satisfaction, resort management also focuses on financial performance. Managers are responsible for budgeting, cost control, and revenue management to optimize profitability. They analyze market trends, monitor competitors, and make informed decisions to drive revenue growth and operational efficiency.
Resort management also involves maintaining and enhancing the resort's physical infrastructure, including buildings, landscapes, and amenities. This includes regular maintenance, renovations, and upgrades to ensure a visually appealing and well-maintained property.
Furthermore, resort managers must stay abreast of industry trends, technological advancements, and evolving guest preferences. They leverage this knowledge to implement innovative practices, adopt sustainable initiatives, and deliver unique experiences that set their resort apart from competitors.

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.

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.

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.
