Problem solving is an important skill that goes beyond mathematics. To fully engage students, teachers should relate material to students' lives outside the classroom. Successful problem solving involves students first working individually, then collaborating in groups. It also requires balancing guided learning with opportunities for creative thinking so students develop problem solving abilities as well as gain relevant information.

How to implement a blended learning model
Using data effectively to drive math achievement
Strategies for professional development in blended learning
Intelligent Adaptive Learning: A Powerful Element for 21st Century Learning &...DreamBox Learning
In this webinar, Dr. Tim Hudson shares insights about leveraging technology to improve student learning. At a time when schools are exploring “flipped” and “blended” learning models, it’s important to deeply understand how to design effective learning experiences, curriculum, and differentiation approaches. The quality of students’ digital learning experiences is just as important as the quality of their educational experiences inside the classroom. Having worked for over 10 years in public education as a teacher and administrator, Dr. Hudson has worked with students, parents, and teachers to improve learning outcomes for all students. As Curriculum Director at DreamBox Learning, he provides an overview of Intelligent Adaptive Learning, a next generation technology available to schools that uses sound pedagogy to tailor learning to each student’s unique needs. This webinar focuses on how administrators and teachers can make true differentiation a reality by focusing on learning goals and strategic use of technology.

Master's Dissertation - The Effectiveness of Online Brand Communities and Use...Zach B. Miller
This is my Master's Dissertation in full. The purpose of my study was to build upon the most recent work in digital marketing research. More specifically, I tested the digital marketing tactics of building online brand communities and user engagement on how they actually influence purchase. In order to do this I chose the company Rooster Teeth as a case study. I chose Rooster Teeth as they are one of the highest subscribed YouTube channels and have a history of digital marketing excellence. I completed a massive cross-sectional research analysis with over 1,500 participants, used SPSS to analyze the quantitative data, and offered new insights to digital marketing researchers as well as an actionable plan to the case study organization.
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.
4. What I Learned
I leaned that Students are more engaged if the material relates to their lives outside the
classroom
There are public schools that are creating learning experiences beyond the traditional classroom
environment.
It is important for students to work on problem solving as an individual task followed by group
collaboration.
Problem Solving is a very “big picture” skill that all students deserve to graduate with.
There is a balance between guided learning and creative learning. Students need information
