Othello by William Shakespeare, Notes, Quotes and Analysis by T. ScarsbrookTanyeliScarsbrook
I used this slide for my A level in English Language and Literature. It helped me a lot as I got an A as a result. I have analysed each act and scene, as well as Key notes and analysis of quotes. This took me a few months to make so I hope it helps some of you.
The story revolves around its two central characters: Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army, and his treacherous ensign, Iago. Given its varied and enduring themes of racism, love, jealousy, betrayal, revenge, and repentance, Othello is still often performed in professional and community theatre alike, and has been the source for numerous operatic, film, and literary adaptations.

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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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.

Heaven is my judge, not I for love and duty,

In compliment extern, ’tis not long after
But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
For daws to peck at. I am not what I am.

16. 16TH-CENTURY
ELIZABETHAN THEATRE
Religious groups condemned theater for the immorality in
the plays.
All of society attended the theater, including royalty.
Plays were meant to be performed-- not seen as
literature, therefore only rough copies of Shakespeare’s
plays survive today.
Only men were actors at the time, even for female roles.

General in the Venetian Army
Very powerful and respected figure
However, he is very insecure and jealous
Kills Desdemona in the end because of jealousy
Commits suicide

Honourable Florentine
Likes women and alcohol
Unjustly accused of having an affair with Desdemona
In the end he outsmarts everyone by foiling his own
murder
19. IAGO
Othello’s ancient and a professional soldier
Snake in the grass
Misuses Othello’s trust, abuses Roderigo
for his own profit
Fools Desdemona and kills his own wife
Regards women as things
Main motives are greed and envy
Considers love as "merely a lust of the blood and
permission of the will” and virtue as a “fig” that is soon
rotted
Embodiment of evil

open-air round theatre.

Theatre was built in London in 1997.
21. JEALOUSY
Iago:
O, beware, my lord, of jealousy;
It is the green-ey'd monster, which doth mock
The meat it feeds on. That cuckold lives in bliss,
Who, certain of his fate, loves not his wronger:
But O, what damnèd minutes tells he o'er
Who dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet strongly loves!
Othello:
O misery!
