Medical errors continue to occur despite efforts to improve patient safety. Many errors stem from ineffective communication between healthcare professionals. To prevent future issues, healthcare organizations must thoroughly analyze adverse events and near misses. This includes identifying contributing factors, evaluating processes and protocols, assessing stakeholder impacts, researching best practices, and developing quality improvement initiatives. Comprehensive reviews that involve all stakeholders can help organizations implement targeted solutions and new technologies to establish a strong culture of safety.

PREPARATIONConsider the hospital-acquired conditions that ar.docx
PREPARATION
Consider the hospital-acquired conditions that are not reimbursed for under Medicare/Medicaid. Among these conditions are specific safety issues such as infections, falls, medication errors, and other safety concerns that could have been prevented or alleviated with the use of evidence-based guidelines. Hospital Safety Score, an independent nonprofit organization, uses national performance measures to determine the safety score for hospitals in the United States. The Hospital Safety Score Web site and other online resources provide hospital safety scores to the public.
Read the scenario below:
Scenario
As the manager of a unit, you have been advised by the patient safety office of an alarming increase in the hospital safety score for your unit. This is a very serious public relations matter because patient safety data is public information. It is also a financial crisis because the organization stands to lose a significant amount of reimbursement money from Medicare and Medicaid unless the source of the problem can be identified and corrected. You are required to submit a safety score improvement plan to the organization's leadership and the patient safety office.
Select a specific patient safety goal that has been identified by an organization, or one that is widely regarded in the nursing profession as relevant to quality patient care delivery, such as patient falls, infection rates, catheter-induced urinary infections, IV infections, et cetera.
DELIVERABLE: SAFETY SCORE IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Develop a 3–5 page safety score improvement plan.
Identify the health care setting and nursing unit of your choice
in the title of the mitigation plan. For example, "Safety Score Improvement Plan for XYZ Rehabilitation Center."
You may choose to use information on a patient safety issue for the organization in which you currently work, or search for information from a setting you are familiar with, perhaps from your clinical work.
Demonstrate systems theory and systems thinking as you develop your recommendations.
Organize your report with these headings:
Study of Factors
Identify a patient safety issue.
Describe the influence of nursing leadership in driving the needed changes.
Apply systems thinking to explain how current policies and procedures may affect a safety issue.
Recommendations
Recommend an evidence-based strategy to improve the safety issue.
Explain a strategy to collect information about the safety concern.
How would you determine the sources of the problem?
Explain a plan to implement a recommendation and monitor outcomes.
What quality indicators will you use?
How will you monitor outcomes?
Will policies or procedures need to be changed?
Will nursing staff need training?
What tools will you need to do this?
Additional Requirements

Assignment 1 Legal Aspects of U.S. Health Care System Administrat.docx
Assignment 1: Legal Aspects of U.S. Health Care System Administration
Due Week 3 and worth 200 points
Prevailing wisdom reinforces the fact that working in U.S. health care administration in the 21st Century requires knowledge of the various aspects of health laws as they apply to dealing with medical professionals. Further, because U.S. health care administrators must potentially interact with many levels of professionals beyond the medical profession, it is prudent that they be aware of any federal, state, and local laws that may be applicable to their organizations. Thus, their conduct is also subject to the letter of the law. They must evaluate the quality of their professional interactions and be mindful of the implications and ramifications of their decisions.
Nearly 65 million surgical operations were performed in 2015 in the U.S. resulting in an estimated 200,000 deaths from complications or other post-operative issues (Ghaferi, Myers, Sutcliffe, & Pronovost, 2016). Ongoing innovation in healthcare can improve patient outcomes. According to the Harvard Business Review article, The Next Wave of Hospital Innovation to Make Patients Safer, over the past several decades, there have been three distinct waves of surgical improvement: technical advancements, standardizing procedures, and high reliability organizing.
Assume the role of a top health administrator at We Care Hospital. You are interested in propelling the hospital to the next level by applying for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. However, you want to ensure surgical outcomes for patient morbidity and mortality rates. You begin by researching the Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP) aimed to improve adherence to quality protocols. You need to ensure the hospital policy is consistent with the law and that the hospital is correctly reporting Sentinel Events to the Joint Commission, a hospital regulatory agency.
Note: You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this assignment.
Write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:
1. Analyze how standardizing procedures and documenting steps can improve outcomes when performing a complex procedure. Review the peer-reviewed journal article, The Next Wave of Hospital Innovation to Make Patients Safer. Articulate your position as the top administrator concerned about the importance of professional conduct and negligence in SCIP quality guidelines.
2. High Reliability Organizing emphasizes the varying actions that can affect patient safety given that standardized systems ignore the fact that each patient is different. Ascertain the major ramifications when the health care team “fails to rescue” the patient. Identify what hospital policies should be in place and identify previous case laws.
3. Analyze the four (4) elements required of a plaintiff to prove medical negligence.
4. Discuss the overarching duties of the health care governing board in mitigating the effects of medical non- ...

Patient Safety Incident Reporting Functionality Reduces Barriers and Improves...
For organizations that are striving to improve patient safety, incident reports are a valuable tool for safety leaders to identify and investigate conditions that may lead to errors or cause harm. Historically, incident reporting has involved complicated forms and a lack of transparency which can discourage employees from reporting events. The newest module in Health Catalyst’s Patient Safety Monitor application, Voluntary Event Reporting, provides an easy-to-use application that is convenient, efficient, productive, and informative. Voluntary Event Reporting offers game-changing support for organizations dedicated to nurturing a safety culture and leveraging reliable data and analytics for better outcomes by ensuring your teams have what they need to report events, follow up, learn, and improve.

Quality
Nearly fifteen years ago, the Institute of Medicine published the “To Err Is Human” report, which exposed the substantial impact of medical errors in the US healthcare system and called for a dramatic system change, including an improved understanding of those errors (McCarthy, Tuiskula, Driscoll, & Davis, 2017). Medical errors are considered to be failure to achieve the original goal or plan of action, and these errors may range from a patient falls to a mistake in the operating room. Not only do medical errors cause harm to the patient and jeopardize the patient’s trust, but they also cause a financial strain for the health system (“To Err is Human,” 1999). One of the contributing factors to medical errors is the lack of effective communication between doctors who are treating the same patient. This results in healthcare providers overprescribing medications for patients as well as increases the possibility of a patient having unnecessary tests or procedures performed. The report’s four-tiered approach includes:
· Focusing on creating a stronger foundation of education on patient safety
· Mandating a nationwide reporting system to encourage timely reporting of errors
· Increasing the standards of performance for healthcare providers
· Taking advantage of the security that safety systems offer (“To Err is Human,” 1999)
Creating a strong educational foundation for patient safety is most important. Healthcare personnel are much more likely to actively participate in reporting systems, encourage one another to perform at a higher level, and take advantage of safety systems when they are well educated on patient safety and the implications of medical errors. The reporting system seems to provide the least amount of impact on patient safety as they can result in losing patient trust in certain healthcare systems. The healthcare system as a whole has made progress in establishing a safe environment for patients when they are in need of care.
Challenges for Patient Safety and Steps for Improvement
Despite continuing evidence of problems in patient safety and gaps between the care that patients receive and the evidence about what they should receive, efforts to improve quality in healthcare show mostly inconsistent and patchy results.

Shaping the Future for Health
TO ERR IS HUMAN:
BUILDING A SAFER HEALTH SYSTEM
Health care in the United States is not as safe as it should be--and can be. At least 44,000 people, and perhaps as many as 98,000 people, die in hospitals each year as a result of medical errors that could have
been prevented, according to estimates from two major studies. Even using
the lower estimate, preventable medical errors in hospitals exceed attributable
deaths to such feared threats as motor-vehicle wrecks, breast cancer, and
AIDS.
Medical errors can be defined as the failure of a planned action to be
completed as intended or the use of a wrong plan to achieve an aim. Among
the problems that commonly occur during the course of providing health care
are adverse drug events and improper transfusions, surgical injuries and
wrong-site surgery, suicides, restraint-related injuries or death, falls, burns,
pressure ulcers, and mistaken patient identities. High error rates with serious
consequences are most likely to occur in intensive care units, operating rooms,
and emergency departments.
Beyond their cost in human lives, preventable medical errors exact
other significant tolls. They have been estimated to result in total costs (in
cluding the expense of additional care necessitated by the errors, lost income
and household productivity, and disability) of between $17 billion and $29
billion per year in hospitals nationwide. Errors also are costly in terms of loss
of trust in the health care system by patients and diminished satisfaction by
both patients and health professionals. Patients who experience a long hospi
tal stay or disability as a result of errors pay with physical and psychological
discomfort. Health professionals pay with loss of morale and frustration at
not being able to provide the best care possible. Society bears the cost of er
rors as well, in terms of lost worker productivity, reduced school attendance
by children, and lower levels of population health status.
A variety of factors have contributed to the nation’s epidemic of medi
cal errors. One oft-cited problem arises from the decentralized and frag
mented nature of the health care delivery system--or “nonsystem,” to some
observers. When patients see multiple providers in different settings, none of
whom has access to complete information, it becomes easier for things to go

Learning Objectives
After reviewing the presentation, viewers should be able to:
Define safety, quality, near miss, and unsafe action
List the safety and quality factors that justified the clinical implementation of electronic health record systems
Discuss three reasons why the electronic health record is central to safety, quality, and value
List three issues that clinicians have with the current electronic health record systems and discuss how these problems affect safety and quality
Describe a specific electronic patient safety measurement system and a specific electronic safety reporting system
Describe two integrated clinical decision support systems and discuss how they may improve safety and quality
Patient Safety-Related Definitions
Safety: minimization of the risk and occurrence of patient harm events
Harm: inappropriate or avoidable psychological or physical injury to patient and/or family
Adverse Events: “an injury resulting from a medical intervention”
Preventable Adverse Events: “errors that result in an adverse event that are preventable”
Overuse: “the delivery of care of little or no value” e.g. widespread use of antibiotics for viral infections
Underuse: “the failure to deliver appropriate care” e.g. vaccines or cancer screening
Misuse: “the use of certain services in situations where they are not clinically indicated” e.g. MRI for routine low back pain
Introduction
Medical errors are unfortunately common in healthcare, in spite of sophisticated hospitals and well trained clinicians
Often it is breakdowns in protocol and communication, and not individual errors
Technology has potential to reduce medical errors (particularly medication errors) by:
Improving communication between physicians and patients
Improving clinical decision support
Decreasing diagnostic errors
Unfortunately, technology also has the potential to create unique new errors that cause harm
Medical Errors
Errors can be related to diagnosis, treatment and preventive care. Furthermore, medical errors can be errors of commission or omission and fortunately not all errors result in an injury and not all medical errors are preventable
Most common outpatient errors:
Prescribing medications
Getting the correct laboratory test for the correct patient at the correct time
Filing system errors
Dispensing medications and responding to abnormal test results

While many would argue that treatment errors are the most common category of medical errors, diagnostic errors accounted for the largest percentage of malpractice claims, surpassing treatment errors in one study
Diagnostic errors can result from missed, wrong or delayed diagnoses and are more likely in the outpatient setting. This is somewhat surprising given the fact that US physicians tend to practice “defensive medicine”

It is also a financial crisis because the organization stands to lose a significant amount of reimbursement money from Medicare and Medicaid unless the source of the problem can be identified and corrected. You are required to submit a safety score improvement plan to the organization's leadership and the patient safety office.
Select a specific patient safety goal that has been identified by an organization, or one that is widely regarded in the nursing profession as relevant to quality patient care delivery, such as patient falls, infection rates, catheter-induced urinary infections, IV infections, et cetera.
DELIVERABLE: SAFETY SCORE IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Develop a 3–5 page safety score improvement plan.
Identify the health care setting and nursing unit of your choice
in the title of the mitigation plan. For example, "Safety Score Improvement Plan for XYZ Rehabilitation Center."
You may choose to use information on a patient safety issue for the organization in which you currently work, or search for information from a setting you are familiar with, perhaps from your clinical work.
Demonstrate systems theory and systems thinking as you develop your recommendations.
Organize your report with these headings:
Study of Factors
Identify a patient safety issue.
Describe the influence of nursing leadership in driving the needed changes.
Apply systems thinking to explain how current policies and procedures may affect a safety issue.
Recommendations
Recommend an evidence-based strategy to improve the safety issue.
Explain a strategy to collect information about the safety concern.
How would you determine the sources of the problem?
Explain a plan to implement a recommendation and monitor outcomes.
What quality indicators will you use?
How will you monitor outcomes?
Will policies or procedures need to be changed?
Will nursing staff need training?
What tools will you need to do this?
Additional Requirements
Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.

Assignment 1 Legal Aspects of U.S. Health Care System Administrat.docx
Assignment 1: Legal Aspects of U.S. Health Care System Administration
Due Week 3 and worth 200 points
Prevailing wisdom reinforces the fact that working in U.S. health care administration in the 21st Century requires knowledge of the various aspects of health laws as they apply to dealing with medical professionals. Further, because U.S. health care administrators must potentially interact with many levels of professionals beyond the medical profession, it is prudent that they be aware of any federal, state, and local laws that may be applicable to their organizations. Thus, their conduct is also subject to the letter of the law. They must evaluate the quality of their professional interactions and be mindful of the implications and ramifications of their decisions.
Nearly 65 million surgical operations were performed in 2015 in the U.S. resulting in an estimated 200,000 deaths from complications or other post-operative issues (Ghaferi, Myers, Sutcliffe, & Pronovost, 2016). Ongoing innovation in healthcare can improve patient outcomes. According to the Harvard Business Review article, The Next Wave of Hospital Innovation to Make Patients Safer, over the past several decades, there have been three distinct waves of surgical improvement: technical advancements, standardizing procedures, and high reliability organizing.
Assume the role of a top health administrator at We Care Hospital. You are interested in propelling the hospital to the next level by applying for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. However, you want to ensure surgical outcomes for patient morbidity and mortality rates. You begin by researching the Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP) aimed to improve adherence to quality protocols. You need to ensure the hospital policy is consistent with the law and that the hospital is correctly reporting Sentinel Events to the Joint Commission, a hospital regulatory agency.
Note: You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this assignment.
Write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:
1. Analyze how standardizing procedures and documenting steps can improve outcomes when performing a complex procedure. Review the peer-reviewed journal article, The Next Wave of Hospital Innovation to Make Patients Safer. Articulate your position as the top administrator concerned about the importance of professional conduct and negligence in SCIP quality guidelines.
2. High Reliability Organizing emphasizes the varying actions that can affect patient safety given that standardized systems ignore the fact that each patient is different. Ascertain the major ramifications when the health care team “fails to rescue” the patient. Identify what hospital policies should be in place and identify previous case laws.
3. Analyze the four (4) elements required of a plaintiff to prove medical negligence.
4. Discuss the overarching duties of the health care governing board in mitigating the effects of medical non- ...
Write a comprehensive analysis (5-7 pages) of an adverse event o.docx
Write a comprehensive analysis (5-7 pages) of an adverse event or near miss from your nursing experience. Integrate research and data on the event to propose a quality improvement (QI) initiative to your current organization.
Health care organizations strive to create a culture of safety. Despite technological advances, quality care initiatives, oversight, ongoing education and training, legislation, and regulations, medical errors continue to be made. Some are small and easily remedied with the patient unaware of the infraction. Others can be catastrophic and irreversible, altering the lives of patients and their caregivers and unleashing massive reforms and costly litigation. Many errors are attributable to ineffective interprofessional communication.
This assessment’s goal is to address a specific event in a health care setting that impacts patient safety and related organizational vulnerabilities with a quality improvement initiative to prevent future incidents.
Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the course competencies through the following assessment scoring guide criteria:
Competency 1: Plan quality improvement initiatives in response to adverse events and near-miss analyses.
Evaluate quality improvement technologies related to the event that are required to reduce risk and increase patient safety.
Analyze the missed steps or protocol deviations related to an adverse event or near miss.
Analyze the implications of the adverse event or near miss for all stakeholders.
Outline a quality improvement initiative to prevent a similar adverse event or near miss.
Competency 3: Evaluate quality improvement initiatives using sensitive and sound outcome measures.
Incorporate relevant metrics of the adverse event or near miss incident to support need for improvement.
Competency 5: Apply effective communication strategies to promote quality improvement of interprofessional care.
Communicate analysis and proposed initiative in a professional, effective manner, writing clearly and logically, with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
Integrate relevant sources to support arguments, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.
Instructions
For this assessment, you will prepare a comprehensive analysis on an adverse event or near miss that you or a peer experienced during your professional nursing career. You will integrate research and data on the event and use this information as the basis for a quality improvement (QI) initiative proposal in your current organization.
The following points correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. The subbullets under each grading criterion further delineate tasks to fulfill the assessment requirements. Be sure that your adverse event or near-miss analysis addresses all of the content below. You may also want to read the scoring guide to better understand .
Patient Safety Incident Reporting Functionality Reduces Barriers and Improves...
For organizations that are striving to improve patient safety, incident reports are a valuable tool for safety leaders to identify and investigate conditions that may lead to errors or cause harm. Historically, incident reporting has involved complicated forms and a lack of transparency which can discourage employees from reporting events. The newest module in Health Catalyst’s Patient Safety Monitor application, Voluntary Event Reporting, provides an easy-to-use application that is convenient, efficient, productive, and informative. Voluntary Event Reporting offers game-changing support for organizations dedicated to nurturing a safety culture and leveraging reliable data and analytics for better outcomes by ensuring your teams have what they need to report events, follow up, learn, and improve.

Quality
Nearly fifteen years ago, the Institute of Medicine published the “To Err Is Human” report, which exposed the substantial impact of medical errors in the US healthcare system and called for a dramatic system change, including an improved understanding of those errors (McCarthy, Tuiskula, Driscoll, & Davis, 2017). Medical errors are considered to be failure to achieve the original goal or plan of action, and these errors may range from a patient falls to a mistake in the operating room. Not only do medical errors cause harm to the patient and jeopardize the patient’s trust, but they also cause a financial strain for the health system (“To Err is Human,” 1999). One of the contributing factors to medical errors is the lack of effective communication between doctors who are treating the same patient. This results in healthcare providers overprescribing medications for patients as well as increases the possibility of a patient having unnecessary tests or procedures performed. The report’s four-tiered approach includes:
· Focusing on creating a stronger foundation of education on patient safety
· Mandating a nationwide reporting system to encourage timely reporting of errors
· Increasing the standards of performance for healthcare providers
· Taking advantage of the security that safety systems offer (“To Err is Human,” 1999)
Creating a strong educational foundation for patient safety is most important. Healthcare personnel are much more likely to actively participate in reporting systems, encourage one another to perform at a higher level, and take advantage of safety systems when they are well educated on patient safety and the implications of medical errors. The reporting system seems to provide the least amount of impact on patient safety as they can result in losing patient trust in certain healthcare systems. The healthcare system as a whole has made progress in establishing a safe environment for patients when they are in need of care.
Challenges for Patient Safety and Steps for Improvement
Despite continuing evidence of problems in patient safety and gaps between the care that patients receive and the evidence about what they should receive, efforts to improve quality in healthcare show mostly inconsistent and patchy results.

Shaping the Future for Health
TO ERR IS HUMAN:
BUILDING A SAFER HEALTH SYSTEM
Health care in the United States is not as safe as it should be--and can be. At least 44,000 people, and perhaps as many as 98,000 people, die in hospitals each year as a result of medical errors that could have
been prevented, according to estimates from two major studies. Even using
the lower estimate, preventable medical errors in hospitals exceed attributable
deaths to such feared threats as motor-vehicle wrecks, breast cancer, and
AIDS.
Medical errors can be defined as the failure of a planned action to be
completed as intended or the use of a wrong plan to achieve an aim. Among
the problems that commonly occur during the course of providing health care
are adverse drug events and improper transfusions, surgical injuries and
wrong-site surgery, suicides, restraint-related injuries or death, falls, burns,
pressure ulcers, and mistaken patient identities. High error rates with serious
consequences are most likely to occur in intensive care units, operating rooms,
and emergency departments.
Beyond their cost in human lives, preventable medical errors exact
other significant tolls. They have been estimated to result in total costs (in
cluding the expense of additional care necessitated by the errors, lost income
and household productivity, and disability) of between $17 billion and $29
billion per year in hospitals nationwide. Errors also are costly in terms of loss
of trust in the health care system by patients and diminished satisfaction by
both patients and health professionals. Patients who experience a long hospi
tal stay or disability as a result of errors pay with physical and psychological
discomfort. Health professionals pay with loss of morale and frustration at
not being able to provide the best care possible. Society bears the cost of er
rors as well, in terms of lost worker productivity, reduced school attendance
by children, and lower levels of population health status.
A variety of factors have contributed to the nation’s epidemic of medi
cal errors. One oft-cited problem arises from the decentralized and frag
mented nature of the health care delivery system--or “nonsystem,” to some
observers. When patients see multiple providers in different settings, none of
whom has access to complete information, it becomes easier for things to go

Chapter 9: Patient Safety, Quality and Value
Harry Burke MD PhD
Learning Objectives
After reviewing the presentation, viewers should be able to:
Define safety, quality, near miss, and unsafe action
List the safety and quality factors that justified the clinical implementation of electronic health record systems
Discuss three reasons why the electronic health record is central to safety, quality, and value
List three issues that clinicians have with the current electronic health record systems and discuss how these problems affect safety and quality
Describe a specific electronic patient safety measurement system and a specific electronic safety reporting system
Describe two integrated clinical decision support systems and discuss how they may improve safety and quality
Patient Safety-Related Definitions
Safety: minimization of the risk and occurrence of patient harm events
Harm: inappropriate or avoidable psychological or physical injury to patient and/or family
Adverse Events: “an injury resulting from a medical intervention”
Preventable Adverse Events: “errors that result in an adverse event that are preventable”
Overuse: “the delivery of care of little or no value” e.g. widespread use of antibiotics for viral infections
Underuse: “the failure to deliver appropriate care” e.g. vaccines or cancer screening
Misuse: “the use of certain services in situations where they are not clinically indicated” e.g. MRI for routine low back pain
Introduction
Medical errors are unfortunately common in healthcare, in spite of sophisticated hospitals and well trained clinicians
Often it is breakdowns in protocol and communication, and not individual errors
Technology has potential to reduce medical errors (particularly medication errors) by:
Improving communication between physicians and patients
Improving clinical decision support
Decreasing diagnostic errors
Unfortunately, technology also has the potential to create unique new errors that cause harm
Medical Errors
Errors can be related to diagnosis, treatment and preventive care. Furthermore, medical errors can be errors of commission or omission and fortunately not all errors result in an injury and not all medical errors are preventable
Most common outpatient errors:
Prescribing medications
Getting the correct laboratory test for the correct patient at the correct time
Filing system errors
Dispensing medications and responding to abnormal test results
5
While many would argue that treatment errors are the most common category of medical errors, diagnostic errors accounted for the largest percentage of malpractice claims, surpassing treatment errors in one study
Diagnostic errors can result from missed, wrong or delayed diagnoses and are more likely in the outpatient setting. This is somewhat surprising given the fact that US physicians tend to practice “defensive medicine”
Over-diagnosis may also cause medical errors but this has been less ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.pdf
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.

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.
