Keith Haring was born in 1958 in Pennsylvania and was inspired by pop artists like Andy Warhol. He attended art school but left to live in New York City where he began creating chalk drawings in subway stations in the 1980s. Haring developed a unique style using bold lines and simplified figures to create repeating patterns conveying social and political messages. His iconic symbols like the radiating baby became well known around the world. Haring aimed to make art accessible to the public through affordable prints and merchandise before his early death from AIDS in 1990.

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.
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.

3. Growing up he wasn’t interested in
most of the art he saw at the
galleries.
Too Formal!
BORING
He wasn’t interested in creating the
art either because he thought it was
too formal.
4. Keith was more interested in
the art of the pop artists like
Andy Warhol and Roy
Lichtenstein who were
considered unconventional
artists in the art world.
Their works were shaped
by television
commercials, cartoons,
comic strips and
advertisements.
5. Keith first attended college at the Pittsburgh Center
for the Arts but in 1978 at the age of twenty he left
Pittsburgh for the School of Visual Arts in New York
City.
Keith didn’t like the School of Visual Arts either and
it wasn’t long before he began to skip classes and
then stop going all together.
He continued to live in NYC but was
extremely poor and had to take the subway
in order to go anyplace.

15. Egyptian
Haring
Like the pictographs of Egyptian hieroglyphics, Haring’s
symbols changed meaning depending on what they were
placed next to. The study of Haring’s symbols is called
semiotics.
19. Haring’s work began as simple white on black
figures but soon he developed into complex
compositions crammed with dancing, pulsating
figures.

studio assistants became addicted to crack.
29. As Haring became famous his artworks
became increasingly more and more

public he created the “Pop Shop” in NYC
where he sold prints, stickers, buttons, and
various other objects with his artwork on it.
