There are many different ways of thinking about human behavior. Psychologists utilize a variety of perspectives when studying how people think, feel, and behave.
Some researchers focus on one specific perspective, such as the biological perspective, while others take a more eclectic approach that incorporates multiple points of view.
There is no single perspective that is "better" than another;
each simply emphasizes different aspects of human behavior.
The historical development of Abnormal Psychology or Psychopathology is worth studying. The progressive as well as conservative steps have contributed to a balanced view of abnormal behavior.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
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.
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.
2. Definition:
The term parapsychology (also known as psi
phenomena) originates from para meaning
"alongside", and psychology(study of mind).
Parapsychologists study a number of
apparent paranormal phenomena,
including telepathy, precognition, clairvoyance, psych
okinesis, near-death experiences and reincarnation.
3. History:
The
term parapsychology
was coined in or around
1889 by
philosopher Max
Dessoir.
4. The Society for Psychical
Research(SPR) was founded in
London in late 19th century. The
formation of the SPR was the first
systematic effort to organize
scientists and scholars for a
critical and sustained
investigation of paranormal
phenomena.
William James fully supported
this work.
5. Rhine Era:
In 1911, Stanford
University became the first
academic institution in the United
States to study extrasensory
perception (ESP) in a laboratory
setting.
The publication of J.B. Rhine's
book, New Frontiers of the
Mind (1937) brought the
laboratory's findings to the general
public. Joseph Banks Rhine
6. The 1970s and 1980s:
The affiliation of the Parapsychological Association
(PA) with the American Association for the
Advancement of Science in the 1970s, led to a decade
of increased parapsychological research.
In 1985 a Chair of Parapsychology was established
within the Department of Psychology at
the University of Edinburgh.
7. Most Recent Developements:
Since the 1980s, contemporary
parapsychological research has
waned considerably in the United
States.Early research was considered
inconclusive, and parapsychologists
were faced with strong opposition
from their academic colleagues.
Rupert Sheldrake is an English
biochemist. He is known for his
Rupert Sheldrake
research into parapsychology.
8. Kirlian Photography:
Some effects thought to be paranormal, for example
the effects of Kirlian Photography.
Kirlian photography is a collection of photographic
techniques used to capture the phenomenon of
electrical discharges. It is named after Semyon
Kirlian, who, in 1939 accidentally discovered that if
an object on a photographic plate is connected to a
high-voltage source, an image is produced on the
photographic plate.
10. Scope:
Parapsychologists study a
number of ostensible
paranormal phenomena,
including but not limited to:
Telepathy: Transfer of
information on thoughts or
feelings between individuals
by means other than the five
classical senses.
11. Ganzfeld Experiment:
•The Ganzfeld (German for "whole
field") is a technique used to test
individuals for telepathy.
•In this picture a participant of
a Ganzfeld experiment, which
proponents say shows evidence
of telepathy.
12. Scope:cont...
Precognition: Perception of
information about future places or
events before they occur.
The existence of precognition, as
Complex Presentiment:
with other forms of extrasensory Half-Figure in a Yellow
perception, is not accepted as other Shirt by Kazimir
than a purely psychological process Malevich.
by the mainstream scientific
community because no replicable
demonstration, "on demand", has
ever been achieved.[
13. Scope:contn...
Clairvoyance: Obtaining
information about places or
events at remote locations, by
means unknown to current
science.
Parapsychology, including
the study of clairvoyance, is
an example of pseudoscience.
14. Scope:contn...
Psychokinesis: The ability of
the mind to influence matter,
time, space, or energy by means
unknown to current science.
Some psychokinesis researchers
claim psychokinesis exists and
deserves further study, although
the focus of research has shifted
away from large-scale
phenomena to small
phenomena.
15. Scope:contn...
Near-death experiences: An
experience reported by a person who
nearly died, or who
experienced clinical death and then
revived.
NDEs include one or more of the
following experiences: a sense of being
dead; a sensation of floating above
one's body and seeing the surrounding
area; a sense of overwhelming love and
peace; a sensation of moving upwards
through a tunnel; encountering a
being of light,
16. Scope:contn...
Reincarnation: The rebirth of a
soul or other non-physical aspect
of human consciousness in a new
physical body after death.
It is specifically the study of "cases
of the reincarnation type", that is,
cases in which a young child
"spontaneously makes remarks
about a previous life he would
have led before his birth“.(Central
belief of Hinduism).
17. Issues and Debates:
Parapsychological theories are
currently viewed
as pseudoscientific by the
scientific community as they are
incompatible with well
established laws of science.
Scientists critical of
parapsychology stated
parapsychology as clustering Fabricated images
illusion, availability error, illusion of ghosts such as this
of control or magical thinking. were very popular in the
19th century
18. Issues and Debates:contn...
Critical analysts, including some
parapsychologists, are not satisfied
with experimental parapschology
studies, contend that apparently
successful experimental results in psi
research are more likely due to
poorly trained researchers, or
methodological flaws rather than to
genuine psi effects.
Stage magician and skeptic ,James James Randi
Randi has demonstrated that magic
tricks can simulate or duplicate some
supposedly psychic phenomena.
