Neoclassical architecture began in the mid-18th century as a reaction against Rococo ornamentation and a return to classical Greek and Roman architectural forms. Key features included symmetry, columns, triangular pediments, and domes. It originated from excavations of Roman ruins in Italy, publications on antiquity, the arrival of the Elgin Marbles, and Johann Winckelmann's circle of artists in Rome imitating classical ideals. Examples included Robert Adam's English country houses, John Nash's master plan for Regent's Street in London, Andrea Palladio's influential buildings, and Greek Revival architecture in America inspired by ancient democracy. By the late 19th century, Neoclassicism had become highly academic and

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

2. INTRODUCTION
Neoclassical architecture is an architectural style produced
by the neoclassical movement that began in the mid-18th
century, manifested both in its details as a reaction against
the Rococo style of naturalistic ornament, and in its
architectural formulas as an outgrowth of some
classicizing features of Late Baroque.
3. In its purest form it is a style principally derived from the architecture of
Classical Greece and Rome and the architecture of the Italian architect
Andrea Palladio. In form, Neoclassical architecture emphasizes the wall
rather than chiaroscuro and maintains separate identities to each of its
parts.
Neoclassical ideas in architecture spread quickly throughout Europe.
Neoclassical buildings are inspired by the classical architecture of
ancient Greece and Rome. A Neoclassical building is likely to have
some (but not necessarily all) of these features
5. ORIGIN
In the sense that neoclassicism in architecture is evocative and
picturesque, a recreation of a distant, lost world, it is, as Giedion
suggests, framed within the Romantic sensibility.
Intellectually Neoclassicism was symptomatic of a desire to return to
the perceived "purity" of the arts of Rome, to the more vague
perception ("ideal") of Ancient Greek arts and, to a lesser extent, 16th-
century Renaissance Classicism, which was also a source for academic
Late Baroque architecture.
There is an anti-Rococo strain that can be detected in some European
architecture of the earlier 18th century, most vividly represented in the
Palladian architecture of Georgian Britain and Ireland, but also
recognizable in a classicizing vein of Late Baroque architecture in
Paris (Perrault's east range of the Louvre), in Berlin, and even in
Rome, in Alessandro Galilei's facade for S. Giovanni in Laterano.
6. It is a robust architecture of self-restraint, academically selective now of
"the best" Roman models, which were increasingly available for close
study through the medium of architectural engravings of measured
drawings of surviving Roman architecture.

12. CHARACTERISTICS
• High neoclassicism was an international movement. Though
neoclassical architecture employs the same classical vocabulary
as Late Baroque architecture, it tends to emphasize its planar
qualities, rather than sculptural volumes.
Projections and recessions and their effects of light and shade
are more flat; sculptural bas-reliefs are flatter and tend to be
enframed in friezes, tablets or panels.
• Its clearly articulated individual features are isolated rather than
interpenetrating, autonomous and complete in themselves.
13. Return to the perceived “purity” of the arts of Rome.
Model the “ideal” of the ancient Greek arts and, to a
lesser, extent, 16c Renaissance classicism.
Sometimes considered anti-modern or even reactionary.
•Symmetrical shape
•Tall columns that rise the full height of the building
•Triangular pediment
• Domed roof
15. Robert Adam (1728 –1792) was a Scottish neoclassical architect and interior
designer. He was the leader of the first phase of the classical revival in England
and Scotland from around 1760 until his death. He influenced the development
of Western architecture, both in Europe and in North America, although he
worked only in Britain.
He specialized in the design of English country houses, large homes for the
wealthy based on ancient architectural and decorative themes, but also on the
ideas of a renaissance architect, Andrea Palladio.
17. John Nash (1752 – 1835) was an Anglo-Welsh architect responsible for
much of the layout of Regency London.
Nash's work came to the attention of the Prince Regent (later King George IV)
who, in 1811 commissioned him to develop an area then known as Marylebone
Park. With the Regent's backing, Nash created a master plan for the area, put
into action from 1818 onwards, which stretched from St James’s northwards
and included Regent Street, Regent's Park and its neighbouring streets, terraces
and crescents of elegant town houses and villas.
This vast project, covering several square miles, made Nash responsible for
creating a new vision of central London, and fundamentally altered a large area
of the city. This was one of the earliest examples of city planning in Europe.

19. Andrea Palladio (Italian, 1508-1580) is often described as the most
influential and most copied architect in the Western world. Drawing inspiration
from classical architecture, Palladio created carefully proportioned, pedimented
buildings that became models for stately homes and government buildings in
Europe and America.
Palladio's Four Books of Architecture was widely translated, and Palladio's ideas
spread across Europe and into the New World. American statesman Thomas
Jefferson borrowed Palladian ideas when he designed Monticello, his home in
Virginia, in the Greek Revival style.

20. Jefferson was also responsible for the State Capital building at
Richmond, Virginia. He had traveled extensively in Europe and
was deeply inspired by ancient Roman buildings, especially the
Maison Carree in Nimes, France, a well-preserved Roman temple
from 16 BCE.
21.
22. The Greek Revival movement in America was a late version of
Neoclassicism. In the mid-19th century, many prosperous Americans believed
that ancient Greece represented the spirit of democracy. Interest in British styles
had waned during the bitter War of 1812. Also, many Americans sympathized
with Greece's own struggles for independence in the 1820s.
Greek Revival houses usually have these features:
* Pedimented gable
* Symmetrical shape
* Heavy cornice
* Wide, plain frieze
* Bold, simple moldings
Many Greek Revival houses also have these features:
* Entry porch with columns
* Decorative pilasters
* Narrow windows around front door
24. SUNSET OF NEOCLASSISM
• From about 1800 a fresh influx of Greek architectural examples,
seen through the medium of etchings and engravings, gave a new
impetus to neoclassicism that is called the Greek Revival.
• Neoclassicism continued to be a major force in academic art
through the 19th century and beyond— a constant antithesis to
Romanticism or Gothic revivals— although from the late 19th
century on it had often been considered anti-modern, or even
reactionary, in influential critical circles.
25. The last major phase of neoclassicism in architecture is commonly known as
Beaux-Arts (1880-1920). By this point it had become a highly academic
style, taking its name from the ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris.
Beaux-Arts was very prominent in public buildings in Canada in the early
20th Century, especially in banks and government buildings. Notably all three
prairie provinces' legislative buildings are in this style.

By the mid-19th century, several European cities – notably St
Petersburg, Athens, Berlin and Munich – were transformed into
veritable museums of Neoclassical architecture.
