1. In open-air theaters, sound reflections bounce between the sloped seating areas and the stage wall, contributing to long reverberation times.
2. When the seating is modeled as sloped surfaces shaped like an inverse cone, most reflections are directed upwards towards the sky, allowing the sound energy to dissipate quickly with few late reflections.
3. The design of open-air theaters aims to minimize external noise, ensure clear propagation of direct sound and early reflections from the seating gradient, and control late reflections to limit reverberation time and eliminate echoes.

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board is actively assembling riverfront properties that will, in time, become developed parkland as envisioned by RiverFirst and the Above the Falls Regional Park Master Plan. Often, the properties have continuing commercial uses or are otherwise not ready for park development.
The Park Board annually sets aside funds to help manage the properties. However, it’s a struggle to implement a successful toolkit of simple yet impactful management strategies that demonstrate good stewardship, communicate positive messages and provide compelling community value. As a result, they often appear abandoned, don’t communicate positive messages to the public and provide little functional value.
The Dept. of Landscape Architecture at the University of Minnesota College of Design's RA-In-Practice program through the Minneapolis Parks Foundation has developed a policy framework and conceptual approaches to managing properties that celebrate them as meaningful public spaces with minimal capital investment.
This strategy was prepared over 2015-2016 with these Research Assistants: Leslie Johnson, Han Do and Chris Tallman.
In the International Year of Forests 2011, this is about an initiative of a School towards CONservation of Natural Environment through Culture and Tradition (abbreviated as CONNECT) programme as conceptualized by the School under its Environment Programme called WE (Working for Environment). The work is dedicated to the cause of WORLD PEACE in observance to HIROSHIMA PEACE MEMORIAL DAY! This exercise is a follow-up of an earlier project of the School called CLEAN UP GUYS (Cycling Long-lived Eco-unfriendly Accumulated Non-biodegradables through United Participation for a Greener Unpolluted Youthful Sikkim) that was carried out in 2009 in observance to International Polar Year.

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.

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.
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. • The definition of the rows on the cavea
horizontal reflections between cavea and
proscenium. The sound will in this case
bounce back and forth between the vertical
seat rises and the proscenium wall. These
reflections will arrive at a listener position
with a large delay and attenuation but will
nevertheless contribute to a long
reverberation time.
3.
4. • When the cavea of the theatre is modeled as sloped surfaces the
theatre will resemble the shape of an inverse cone. This shape will
tend to direct most of the reflections towards the open sky and
therefore the energy will dissipate quickly leaving few late
reflections.
• The diffraction and scattering effect from the empty seats is not
usually considered important in computer simulations of roofed
theatres.
• Many strong reflections from the roof and side walls mask the
much lower energy coming from scattering and diffraction.
• But in the case of the open-air theatres fewer strong reflections are
present and the gaps between strong reflections in the impulse
response have to be filled in with scattered energy in order to get a
smoother decay curve.
• An abrupt decay curve with a few strong reflections makes it very
difficult to estimate any acoustic parameter and can be misleading .
5. Design details :
•Selection of site is is a critical point. topographical, meteorological
and acoustical properties should be taken into consideration.
•Slope of seating should not be less than 12 degrees, for better
audibility n visibility
•Noise level should not exceed 40 decibel.;.

7. Long term acoustic studies conducted in outdoor spaces
have shown that the basic principles of design include:
• minimisation of external noise (noise protection),
• harmonic development of the functional elements of
the theatrical space within the limits of human vocal
and acoustical scale,
• sufficient emergence of directly propagated sound and
its reinforcement through early positive sound
reflections (from the amphitheatre gradient and
natural loudspeaker response of the space),
• control of late sound reflections (limitations of the
reverberation time, eliminations of echoes)
8.
9. • The design of the new open air theatres goes
back to the positive models of similar
monuments that have been preserved in the
contemporary urban plan. In order to optimise
advantages of acoustic design, the usual cases
involving adverse sound environments require
the combined exploitation of the advantagesof
open space plan and the limitation of the
boundaries of the theatre space based on the
model of Greco-roman theatre.
13. WHY THE GREEKS COULD HEAR FROM THE BACK ROW??????
• The wonderful acoustics for which the ancient
Greek theatre of Epidaurus is renowned may
come from exploiting complex acoustic
physics, new research shows.
• Its acoustics are extraordinary: a performer
standing on the open-air stage can be heard in
the back rows almost 60 metres away.
Architects and archaeologists have long
speculated about what makes the sound
transmit so well.
14. • The key is the arrangement of the stepped
rows of seats.
• Most of the noise produced in and around the
theatre was probably low-frequency noise, the
rustling trees and murmuring theatre-goers,
for instance. So filtering out the low
frequencies improves the audibility of the
performers' voices, which are rich in higher
frequencies, at the expense of the noise. The
cut-off frequency is right where you would
want it if you wanted to remove noise coming
from sources that were there in ancient times.

Sound power distributed over an area
I=P/A
I: sound (power) intensity, W/cm2

26. Reflection Paths of Sound
• The sound will in the case of the cavea horizontal
reflections between cavea proscenium bounce back
and forth between the vertical seat rises and the
proscenium wall. These reflections will arrive at a
listener position with a large delay and attenuation but
will nevertheless contribute to a long reverberation
time.
• When the cavea of the theatre is modeled as sloped
surfaces the theatre will resemble the shape of an
inverse cone. This shape will tend to direct most of the
reflections towards the open sky and therefore the
energy will dissipate quickly leaving few late reflections
27. • Many strong reflections from the roof and side
walls mask the much lower energy coming from
scattering and diffraction. But in the case of the
open-air theatres fewer strong reflections are
present and the gaps between strong reflections
in the impulse response have to be filled in with
scattered energy in order to get a smoother
decay curve. An abrupt decay curve with a few
strong reflections makes it very difficult to
estimate any acoustic parameter and can be
misleading.
28. • The function of an open air theatre must fulfil
the dual goal of maximising the advantages of
acoustic design and minimising the effects of
noise pollution on the environment, an
objective that can be described with the signal
to noise ratio S/N. on the basis of a practical
method for applying this acoustic evaluation
criterion, we shouldevaluate the spatial
distribution of the revelant derivative values
of ‘emergence’ and spectral density
