The document discusses prehistoric art from the Paleolithic and Neolithic periods in Europe and Africa. It begins by outlining the goals of understanding the origins of art in terms of timeline, human development, and activities. During the Paleolithic period, art depicted humans and animals using materials like ivory, stone, and cave paintings. The Neolithic period saw changes to art forms and styles with the development of agriculture and architecture, including structures like Stonehenge and Newgrange that used corbelled vaults and post-and-lintel systems. The document examines key artworks and differences between Paleolithic and Neolithic artistic conventions through images and discussion questions.
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.

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.

30. Discussion Questions
In the textbook, emphasis is placed on a criterion of intentional
manipulation of an object in order for it to be classified as
“art.” Is this criterion valid? What is your definition of art?
Why do you think that images of man were less prevalent in
Paleolithic art than those of women?
What accounts for the lifestyle changes? How did lifestyle
changes between Paleolithic and Neolithic populations affect
art and architecture?
How is the human figure presented differently in the Paleolithic
to the Neolithic periods? Are there any similarities in the
representation of the human figure between the two periods?
