Luganda language is one of the indigenous languages spoken by people of Uganda. Out of the 45+ indigenous languages of Uganda, Luganda is the most widely spoken with more than eight million speakers (Namyalo, 2013). Although Luganda is a fairly well documented language, and while it is being taught as a subject of study at some education institutions in Uganda, many young learners of this generation are slowly detaching themselves from its study (LTA, 2014). The need to address this challenge is urgent. Otherwise, many young learners of this generation will continue to detach themselves from the study of Luganda. When this challenge is not addressed, Luganda language will lose its continuity and risk becoming extinct. The larger study from which this paper emerges aimed at cultivating teacher-trainees’ experiences of utilising emerging technologies (ETs) in teaching to revitalise Luganda language.

Symposium on TPACK at SITE 2014
TPACK is recognized by many as a useful conceptual framework to help define the knowledge base teachers’ need to know to effectively integrate technology in their educational practice. However, determining whether teachers indeed have developed the knowledge and skills required for effective technology integration – or in short whether they have developed TPACK – is a much more complicated issue. This symposium discusses how artifacts are being used in assessing pre-service and practicing teachers technology integration competencies. TPACK calls for coherence between content, pedagogy and technology. The assumption is that having TPACK also implies teachers’ being able to demonstrate technology integration competencies. This assumption implies a fit between (pre-service) teachers’ TPACK (often measured through self-report instruments) and the artifacts they produce.
In this symposium we discuss how different kinds of artifacts, e.g. lesson plans and lesson practice as demonstrated in video clips can be used as an indicator of a teacher’s technology integration competencies. In this symposium we discuss different artifacts (pre-service) teachers produce in order to demonstrate that they have TPACK. In the symposium different artifacts will be discussed, such as lesson plans and video clips that show technology use in classroom practice. The symposium deals with the potential and restrictions of artifacts as indicator for technology integration, the assessment of artifacts and the relation with other TPACK measures, such as the TPACK survey from Schmidt et al. (2010). Examples from different educational contexts will be presented and discussed.

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. What is TPACK?
• TPACK is an educational framework that analyzes
the ideal combination of technological and
pedagogical choices made by a teacher to most
effectively convey their content experience
• This framework can be visualized using a Venn
diagram in which the goal is an equal overlap
between all 3 of the knowledge domains
• Acquiring equal interactions between all
knowledge areas (ie. TPACK) is something that
develops as a teacher becomes more experienced
3. What is the ideal TPACK model?
In the ‘ideal’ TPACK model
there is equal overlap between
all 3 knowledge types
(technological, pedagogical
and content) leading to
implementation of all three
aspects in the classroom. This
is considered the ultimate goal
for a 21st century teacher but
takes time to develop and
become comfortable with.
However, the more conscious
you are of these three
important areas of teaching
the more likely you will be to
succeed using this framework!
4. My personal TPACK model
This is what my
personal
representation
of the TPACK
framework
looked like at
the beginning of
this semester…
5. E-Books, Blendspace and SMART
boards…
Blendspace was
a technology
that allowed me
to aesthetically
organize a
collection of
resources in one
place.
The UDL Book
Builder was a
technology I
used to
describe some
web 2.0 tools
that I could use
in my
classroom.
Using an IWB I was able to
create a short interactive
lesson on verbs. This is an
effective way of combining all
3 of the knowledge types!
6. Edmodo and Learning
Theories…
Using Edmodo, an excellent PLN, I
was able to use technology to create
an online biology class where I could
post content information and
resources for my students.
I also used this tool to share
information about learning theories
that we covered in class which could
help me to start to develop my unique
pedagogical style and become a more
effective educator.
7. more, m-Learning and a Screencast…
I used a technology called Smore to create a fun
flier highlighting various mobile learning apps
that could be used as tools to foster learning
outside of the classroom in less traditional
environments!
This screencast was a
great way to share
content knowledge
using technology!
Using apps like these I
am using technology to
present content in a
unique pedagogical
way… TPACK!
8. What’s the big deal anyway?
• Learning about this framework will impact me as a teacher because it
will help me to become more conscious of my choices in the
classroom regarding technology, pedagogy and content knowledge
• By consistently referring back to this model I will be better able to
reflect on my strengths/weaknesses and thus make goals for how I
can improve my teaching so as to be the most effective educator
possible for my students
• In making efforts to find the ideal balance of all 3 of these knowledge
types I will begin to consistently develop effective lesson plans that
not only meet curricular goals but also engage students and inspire
them to be excited about the subject matter and use the many
technological tools available to them
• In terms of my level of TPACK I now feel much more confident in
combining new technologies into my teaching practices. Thanks to
EDU210 I now have a fantastic toolbox of resources I can use to
create an engaging 21st century classroom!
