The MOSI Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, England is focused on the progress of science and industry in the city and surrounding areas. It presents these themes through exhibits, experiments, and historical documents organized across galleries focused on topics like industry and innovation, science and technology, energy, transport, and media. Visitors can learn about Manchester's development since the Industrial Revolution through to modern times, and how science and technology have changed people's lives and ways of communicating and traveling, while also participating in interactive experiments that demonstrate science in everyday life.
This is the Henry Cole Lecture I gave in 2010 at the V&A museum. Most of the pictorial materials come from the V&A collections. There is also a short film that was inspired by the talk:

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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. The MOSI, Museum of Science
and Industry, is a museum
founded on the themes of the
progress of science and industry
in Manchester and surrounding
towns.
The themes are presented with
experiments, historical documents
and exhibits, and they are industry
and innovation, science and
technology, energy, transport,
people and media.
3. The museum is organized around
many galleries, each of them
dealing with a specific topic, i.e.
Industry & innovation or science
and technology and so on.
In these galleries there are a lot
of interesting things to do and to
learn about the city of
Manchester and its scientific
development.
4. Visiting the museum you will
realize the progress that has
invested the city since the
industrial revolution up to now,
began with the first textile factories,
and how, due to science and
technology, the people way of live
has changed, especially in the way
they communicate and move.
Inside the museum you can also
make little but curious experiments What shouldn't you
that show how the science is miss? Visitors reviews
involved in everyday life. give a range of
suggestions. On the
top of the list we find
the newest gallery with
interactive technology.
Other suggestion are:
the historical site, 4D
theatre, planetarium
and much more.
5. Some of the most amazing facts about science in
everyday life are explained in the fascinating
interactive science gallery, where you can see, hear,
feel and smell science in action.
There you can make many esperiments: watch your
skeleton riding a bike or spin the turbulence zone are
only a pair of examples.
It would be nice to do
theese experiments
because they are funny
but surprising and I bet,
once enter in the science
gallery, you will be
impressed.
