The document outlines six approaches to managing glacial landscapes: do nothing, business as usual, sustainable exploitation, sustainable management, comprehensive conservation, and total protection. It describes each approach and the key considerations. Students will then be split into groups, each assigned to argue for one of the approaches, and debate what should be done with polar regions from their assigned perspective.

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.

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.
2. Approaches
• There is a spectrum of approaches that can be used to manage cold
environments which are highlighted below:
DO
NOTHING
TOTAL
PROTECTION
SUSTAINABLE
EXPLOITATION
SUSTAINABLE
MANAGEMENT
COMPREHENSIVE
CONSERVATION
BUSINESS
AS USUAL
3. • Do Nothing
– This allows to exploitation of these environments. This approach might be supported
by those seeking to profit from the resources available such as Governments, locals,
unions and businesses as well as developers and mining corporations
• Business as Usual
– A similar approach effectively leaving things exactly as they are and carrying on as
normal. It might include some conservation and sustainable policies this suits many
different players as it stays with the status quo
• Sustainable Exploitation
– Middle ground which targets the environment for profit but insists on mandatory
environmental regulations such as waste disposal by Cruise ships
– Looks to take all views and consideration in to help maintain a balance between
economic development and sustainable development
4. • Sustainable Management
– This method aims at development that is sustainable and benefits everyone as well
as conserving and protecting the environment for future generations
– This is very difficult to achieve due to different needs of stakeholders
• Comprehensive Conservation
– Aims to protect the environment as a wilderness hoping to maintain its pristine value.
– Allows carefully monitored ecotourism, organic farming. Exploitive activities such as
mining will be banned however it is hard to legislate.
• Total Protection
– Only favoured by conservationists and some indigenous locals
– Does not permit access except for scientific research and monitoring and therefore
doesn’t allow people to earn revenue from such things as tourism
5. For the next 30 mins
• Students will be split into groups and asked to research the
Arctic region and what should be done.
• You will be separated into groups to do this which include:
• Do nothing approach
• Business as Usual
• Sustainable Exploitation
• Sustainable Management
• Comprehensive Conservation
• Total Protection
• Each group will argue from the point of view they have been
given as to what we should do with polar regions and why.
