The document summarizes Greek gardens, their location, climate, soil, and history. It describes Greece's geography of peninsulas and many islands along the Aegean, Ionian, and Mediterranean seas. The climate is mild with warm, dry summers and cooler, wetter winters. Soil is generally silty, sandy, and limestone-based but not very fertile. Ancient Greek gardens included sacred groves, philosophical gardens, public gardens, and private gardens for the wealthy. Gardens featured plants like olive trees, citrus trees, and flowers, along with decorations like fountains, sculptures, and columns. Hardy plants, walls, and shade were common design elements that harmonized the built and natural

gardensJapanese gardens always have water, either a pond or stream, or, in the dry rock garden, represented by white sand. Water is used not just for its visual quality, but also for its sound.
The Japanese have learnt to exploit the sound of water in all its various form. it varies from powerful waterfall to water falling into a water basin, creating different emotions.
The bank of the pond is usually bordered by rocks & in order to preserve the natural shapes, man-made ponds are asymmetrical.
In traditional gardens,The ponds and streams are carefully placed according to Buddhist geomancy, the art and science of putting things in the place most likely to attract good fortune.
In Buddhist symbolism, water and stone are the ying-yang, two opposites which complement and complete each other
A waterfall is more suitable to stimulate both visual and acoustic senses and a lake or a pond is to create a more formal and calm setup

The landscape is a real discipline that is studied from different point of view: geographical, geological, morphological and aesthetic. A landscapes is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms, and how they integrate with natural or man-made features.
In the origins of garden layout and form aso lie in agricultural practices,we may regard the fenced vegetation as the original prototype.As leisured segments of the society could be supported by the productivity of settled civilizations.
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.

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.

2. LOCATION AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONTE
Located in southern Europe, Greece forms an
irregular-shaped peninsula in the Mediterranean with
two additional large peninsulas projecting from it: the
Chalcidice and the Peloponnese.
The country has the largest coastline in Europe
(13,676km) due to its numerous islands. Greece has
a total of 2,000 Greek islands but only 168 are
inhabited.
The country is washed to the east by the Aegean
Sea, to the west by the Ionian and to the south by the
Mediterranean Sea.
Greece has a rich diversity in flora and fauna and
many species are original in this country, which
means that they are found only there in the world.
The mountains of Greece divide the agricultural lands
into discrete geographical units, limited at all sides by
sea and mountains. This topographical arrangement
favors not only a sense of regionalism from a purely
spatial point of view but also, an organizational

3. Weather in Greece is fairly uniform throughout the mainland and the
Greek islands. Due to its geographical position, Greece has mild
winters and warm summers, cooled by different kind of seasonal
winds. The summers are characterized by sunshine and very little
rainfall.
In the winter, temperatures again were influenced by the surrounding
water. Typically temperatures did not go below 40° F (4.4° C) with the
exceptions in the high mountains. In the mountains, snow was typical
during the wet winter months.
The Greeks' life was closely related to landscape as a large part of
the population lived in the urban centre and commuted daily in the
outskirts of the city, in order to work in the farmlands.
Much of the soils in Greece are made up of silty, sandy soil.
Limestone is a characteristic type of soil found in this country. The soil
is not very fertile. Only about 30 percent of the total land area in
Greece can support crops. Most farms are small because there are no
major valleys in Greece. Wheat is Greece’s main crop.

5. HISTORY OF ANCIENT GREEK GARDENS :
Landscape design of ancient Greece (VI B.C. - IV A.D.)
was in essence garden design. The presence of a good
combination of utilitarian, religious and aesthetical features
was typical to the gardens of that time.
Greeks originally had characteristic tendency towards
harmony with nature, use of a relief as by topographical
component and the landscaping design of ancient Greece
was characterized by considerably freer planning and
structure of composition.
Greeks learned to harmoniously combine the
construction of cities with the natural landscape, mutually
supplementing each other. Gardens and parks became
similar to living organisms, which have a close connection
with the natural environment and man.
Acropolises, theatres, forums, squares, seemingly
grow from nature, harmonizing and merging with the
surrounding landscape.
The most extensive characteristic exclusively for ancient
Greek forms of re-planting ,such as Herron, are more

6. PRINCIPLES AND CHARACTERESTICS
In the landscaping construction of ancient Greece a strict symmetry
predominated. Alleys and parks were decorated with fountains, columns, vases,
sculptures.
stepped gardens were also built, on which fountains were arranged and flowers
and trees were planted. The Hellenic garden had many components: massive
amounts of plants, spiral staircases and many decorations
Greek landscape dictated a pre-defined course through the built and unbuilt
environment, which was perceived as an inseparable unity.
Components like water feature and
vases in gardens.
7. Hardy plants, protective walls, and shaded patios are ubiquitous
In smaller villages, there was no tradition for a home to have a backyard, there
was no soil even,The place that people had when they went outside was the street.
They had to put pots with plants in the street. That's a typical garden."

11. TYPES
SACRED GROVES
The religious gardens were of two varieties: the cultivable type, which could be
rented out while also being a pleasant gathering place, and the rustic shrine,
where statuary and trees coexisted; a subspecies of this latter type consisted of
natural grottoes embellished by rock-cut sculpture, votive offerings and at times.
12. • Herron - the memorial garden - grove, planted on the spot of the burial of a hero.
Gardens had a racetrack, a hippodrome, an area for gymnastic games and
competition in the memory of heroes. With time Herrons began to be decorated
with statues and colonnades which became the accents of parks. In the majority of
cases Herrons had a memorial nature, they were made with the process of the
creation of different architectural structures and forests. Over time these sacred
groves ceased to bear a memorial nature and became sports parks.
• Philosophical gardens were created specially so that philosophical
conversations could be conducted in them. On the terraces were created straight,
wide alleys with space for sports, statues, vases and fountains. In such gardens
school and gymnasium lessons were conducted by the famous philosophers
Plato, Aristotle, etc. Academy Garden on the Ilisos river in the outskirts of Athens
(460 B.C.). Philosophical gardens were isolated from the public parks. The largest
squares of all of the cities belonging to the state were surrounded with

fountains.
• The private gardens of prosperous owners most frequently bore an
exceptionally utilitarian nature.
• Nymph - sacred oak, cedar or olive grove located in center of an artistic
water source or grotto with a regular planning style. Over time new
decorations such as columns and sculptures appeared and enriched the
nymphs. These places were thought to be inhabited by gods, nymphs and
muses, because of this people brought sacrifices here. The flow of water,
which fell into the pond, was the prototype of the water features in the parks of
Western Europe.
