Facebook Profiles and Usage as Indicators of Personalityedawson6789
This study looks at how certain cues on Facebook profiles relate to personality traits, specifically, extraversion, conscientiousness, and emotional stability. Three hypotheses focused on profile photos and how frequently the users change their photo. I predicted that 1) extraversion scores would be higher for participants who use a party scene as their profile photo, 2) conscientiousness scores would be lower for these same participants, and 3) the emotional stability scores would be negatively related to profile photo changing frequency. A total of 170 first year college students at Bryant University were surveyed about personality traits and Facebook usage.
This presentation and set of notes on Faculty Perceptions of Student Affairs and Services was given at the Canadian Society for the Study of Higher Education in June 2013

Helping Students on Academic Probation to Persist and Succeed - NACADA Confer...Robert M. Kurland, Ph.D.
Helping Students on Academic Probation to Persist and Succeed. Research has repeatedly shown that students who end up on probation are less likely to be retained and graduate as compared to students who remain in good academic standing. Colleges and universities must offer more effective support services and interventions to help these students succeed and persist towards graduation. Probation does not have to be the end of an academic career. This presentation will discuss the evolution of support services that have been offered to students at the Rutgers – Newark College of Arts and Sciences/University College, with a particular focus on current interventions which include a 1-credit online course that will be required for all probation students to enroll. We will discuss the theory, implementation, and components of the course.
Alan Roberts: Student engagement in shaping Higher Education. Slides from the University of Liverpool Learning and Teaching Conference 2009.
In February 2009 the Centre for Higher Education Research and Information produced a report to HEFCE on student engagement in England. The study aimed to:
* Determine the current extent and nature of student engagement in higher education in England;
* Explore current models of formal and informal student engagement;
* Explore institutions’ rationales for student engagement policies and practices, their measures of effectiveness, and perceptions of barriers to effectiveness;
* Explore what institutions and sector bodies might learn from student engagement models operating in other countries
Liverpool Guild of Students, on behalf of the University of Liverpool, was one of the case study organisations. This session will be used to create discussion about student engagement in learning and teaching issues at the University.

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.

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.

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.

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.

about the Psychology Club is that you
learn so much more from students who
are currently going through it and [who
are] willing to chat with you…and tell you
things that other people aren’t.

12. A few weeks ago my mentee who is in her first year,
she asked me “how do you get through it?”
….I couldn’t answer her right away because I had to
go home and really think about it, ‘cause I went
through the last three years of my life and asked
myself ‘really how did I get through it?’ ….And then
I realized that it is because of the support I got
from my classmates as well as my co-workers who
are also students.

that. They [peers] see me differently and
ask for help. I was there once too.”

Editor's Notes
Programs and services that enhance and support student learning and success have become an increasingly important component of most postsecondary institutions
Despite increases in administrative structures to support student success in recent decades, there is little understanding of the various ways in which student services divisions are organized formally and informally
And we move into Phase II. This saw us going back to 13 of the campuses (9 universities and 4 colleges) but we expanded our data collection to get a 360 degree view of our key constructs. In Phase II, we interviewed senior administrators, faculty, student leaders, students and student affairs and services staff. We used the Senior Student Affairs and Services Officer to help us identify individual within each of those groups to speak with and we asked those who agreed to interviews to recommend colleagues who might be willing to be in focus groups. In total, we spoke with more than 350 people. Again, our process was very similar to phase I. We asked participants to draw/depict how they saw their institution supporting student success and we asked the participants to describe their roles, both as individuals and in partnership or collaborations with others, to support student success.
In this presentation, we focus exclusively on the data from faculty interviews and focus groups; however the analysis process used is virtually identical to our analysis process for all of our stakeholder data. The first step was that team members listened to the audio files and transcribed each of the interviews and focus groups. At the end of each transcript, a brief summary of the primary themes discussed was created. This helped lead us to develop large overarching domains (e.g. leadership, communication, collaboration) that seemed to characterize the data. From that, we began to describe the elements of each domain more specifically, the types, forms and example of a domain like leadership.
For the particular analysis that generated these findings, we examined specifically the descriptions of the knowledge, awareness and interactions that faculty had of and with student affairs and services. We split the transcripts and drawings between two researchers; each looking at 35-40. While reviewing the transcripts, we examined the drawings as well and compared them to the participant descriptions. The combination of these two forms of data led us to create a categorization for each participant. The researchers then recoded the other half of the codes and compared them for differences to ensure consistency.
