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.

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.
2. What is PLN?
PLN (Professional Learning Network) is also known as Personal Learning Network.
“PLN are deliberately formed networks of people and resources capable of guiding our independent learning
goals and professional development needs”— Corine Weisberger

youtube video link down below.

useful accounts to follow such as, EdTech services,
The Alberta Teacher’s Association, Alberta Education,
2learn society, Discovery education etc.
My twitter account is @FaqueehaMansoor
4. Alberta Teachers

education in Alberta and
about new programs and
guidelines.

follow this account to keep
themselves updated.
4. It is a great account for
teachers to connect,
collaborate and contribute
their thoughts on different
educational conditions in
Alberta

7. PLN October,
Here is the screenshot of
my PLN from now.
• I do not have so may
followers because I
want to my PLN
professional and I do
not want it to be mingle
with the family and other
friends.
• The reason is because
many people tweet stuff
which is highly
unprofessional and I do
not really want it to be
the part of my PLN.
• I am sure that in some
months I will be able to
get more followers than
I have now.

8. PLN: Connect
PLN is a great way to connect with professionals from
all over the world.
It is very beneficial for pre service professional to keep
in touch with the veterans related to their profession.
There are a lot of useful sites and accounts on social
media to follow thus building your PLN is a great way
to connect and keep yourselves flourished.
9. PLN: Contribute
When we make our PLN and get connected to many
professionals and experts, it will allow us to contribute
our thoughts as well.
For example, I can make tweets about different
teaching theories and what I believe in or can make a
question for a lot of my followers. My followers can
then provide me with feedbacks and I can also
contribute by making feedbacks on their tweets.
10. PLN: Collaborate
Teachers can thus collaborate on different teaching
perspectives, ideas and work by using their PLNs.
For example, if I will make a tweet about what is the role of
technology in education? A lot of other my followers and
teachers can thus contribute their thoughts and we can all
collaborate by working and sharing our ideas about
technology in education.
We can thus share our perspectives and why we think like
that by giving reasons and thus can convince others if we
are right or get convinced others’ thoughts if they seem to
be reasonable.
11. My contributions on
Twitter
I use twitter in order to gain knowledge and also
retweet knowledgeable stuff for my followers.
Twitter is a great social media tool in order to stay
connected with a lot of professional and build upon
your teaching skills by reading useful articles and
different resources.
I became more aware by joining different accounts
especially the ones related to Alberta Education
because it keeps me updated with all the new
information I need to know related to the curriculum
and teaching.
12. Here are some screenshots of my contributions
and activity on twitter
