Challenge 2 – Adaptation and Constraints
The Depot at Cape Canaveral is almost online, and the depots in the Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand will be coming online soon as well.
Our next obstacle is the infrastructure for the base on the moon. The Moon will be used as stopping point on the way to Mars, in addition to serving as the human race’s new home until the colony on Mars is finished.
Due to the way the base was constructed, we have serious power, cooling, and space limitations. You must scale the design down to fit into half of a datacenter rack, or 21U. In addition, we also only have IPV6 network infrastructure on the moon. You must use the same vendors of the design you will be working with, but you can use different product lines. You must tell us what the configuration maximums for the new design are (for example, maximum hosts, VMs, storage capacity), and what your failure tolerance is.
This presentation is set for 15 seconds before each slide advances. While in slide show mode, you can advance manually if you prefer. The references are cited in the notes page.
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.

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.

2. Overview
The modern educator is faced with many
challenges today when it comes to educating the
students that we come in contact with. This
presentation is to focus on the students who need
help with special needs in the classroom. In higher
education, it is referred to as accommodations. I
plan to give you outlets to use that will help you
provide excellent education for those students
with special needs in your classrooms and in your
colleges.
3. ASSISTIVE
TECHNOLOGY
DEFINITION:
According to the University of
Washington, assistive technology is
technology used by individuals with
disabilities in order to perform
functions that might otherwise be
difficult or impossible. Assistive
technology can include mobility devices
such as walkers and wheelchairs, as
well as hardware, software, and
peripherals that assist people with
disabilities in accessing computers or
other information technologies.

4. The Need for Assistive Technology
In K-12 Education
• To understand the
implementation of
Individualized Education
Programs (IEP’s)
• To align your teaching styles
and plans to the curriculum
from the Tech Act and IDEA
Act.
• To efficiently be effective in
educating all students with
disabilities through technology
in a society focused on
change.
In Higher Education
• To effectively reach the
estimated 11% of
undergraduate and 7% of
graduate students who report
having a disability.
• To allow for students who
have “hidden” or cognitive
disabilities to feel comfortable.
• To be in accordance with the
Individuals with Disabilities Act
of 2004.
5. MEETING THE SPECIFIC NEEDS
There are many needs that need to be met when it comes to
educating students with disabilities. Therefore, it is
imperative to do research on technologies that will help you
educate the holistic need of a student with a certain
disability. The next few slides will demonstrate the assistive
technologies that are available for all students, regardless of
educational grade and status. The objective for the educator
is to be able to use each technology resource in the
classroom and aid the student in the process of knowing
how to use it as well.
6. The ADHD Student:
Computer Software: The purpose
of these are to develop the
reading, writing and math
functions of the student
Brain Training: Printouts,
Brain Games: Hand held, On-line
computer games
Voice Recognition Software
Talking Computer Keyboards
E Dictionary
Children’s Talking Calculator
Screen Magnifiers
To the right are
several beneficial
tools to help
students learn who
suffer from ADHD.
7. Auditory Disabled Student Learner:
Children with auditory processing disorder often have trouble
when there is a great deal of noise in the background, so teachers
should work to create an environment with as few auditory
distractions as possible. Children with auditory processing disorder
should be seated somewhere near where instruction is being
delivered. Verbal directions should be simplified and clarified as
needed and many students respond well to written instructions
and other visual cues in conjunction with verbal directions. Asking
a student to repeat or paraphrase the directions after they have
been delivered is another way to ensure that the student has
heard properly.
8. Mild Disability Learners:
The teacher can become creative for the mild
disability learner.
Note-Taking: A simple, no-tech approach to note
taking is for the teacher to provide copies of
structured outlines in which students fill in
information.
Writing: Word processing maybe the most
important application of assistive learning for
students with mild disabilities.
9. Summary
• Define your challenges
– Understand that each student with disabilities must
be met and taught differently.
• Set realistic expectation
– See which assistive technology program works best
with each student and measure their outcomes
• Keep your eye on the goal
– Share your findings with administrators, faculty and
others who can benefit from your learning.
