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.
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.

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Dean R Berry Problems and Solutions: Hunger and Food Deprivation
1. Problems and Solutions :
Millions of People in the World Face Food Deprivation,
Malnutrition, and Death
By
Dean Berry, Ed. D.
The Teachers Choice Library
2. Unsolved Problems: Potential
Consequences
Hunger and malnutrition are significant problems in America
and world wide. In underdeveloped countries starvation is
more obvious and often results in debilitating illnesses and
death. In the United States, hunger is more invisible and
occurs behind doors in low income families.
3. Consequences and Effects
Meet in small groups and identify the serious
consequences of millions of people facing starvation
and hunger. What problems might be created by food
deprivation in our country and other countries?
4. Research the Consequences
• Use the consequences identified by your small
group.
• Select credible sources from sites that use filters
(google news.com, bing news.com)
• Conduct a brief scan of 10-15 articles and choose 5-7
that seem to provide the best information about
possible negative consequences of the
unsolved problem
• Take 3 or 4 pages of notes
• Write a “Findings Report” by providing 1 or 2
paragraphs describing each consequence. Number
the consequences and title the paper “The Consequences
of not Addressing the Problem of ________”
5. The Problem
Many adults and children throughout the
world face food deprivation. The causes may
include very low income levels, wars, and
droughts that make farming impossible.
6. Clarifying the Problem
• Meet in a small group and discuss the
problem. Agree on a statement that clearly
defines the problem.
• After your group has agreed on an acceptable
definition of the problem, brainstorm
possible solutions without evaluating
the ideas(that will be done later).
• Select the three most feasible
solutions for future study
7. Possible Solutions
People in America and throughout the world
go to bed at night hungry. The consequences
of hunger can be severe. What can be done
to help alleviate the problem of hunger?
8. Unintended Consequences
Sometimes a solution to a problem creates new problems
that were not anticipated when the preferred solution was
chosen. For example, spraying insecticide in neighborhoods
to stop the Zika Virus may also endanger human health.
Rounding up undocumented immigrants to enforce
immigration laws may result in broken families or a serious
labor shortage. The consequences of an action that seeks
to solve a problem sometimes creates more serious
problems than it solves. These types of unintended
consequences must be determined before solutions
to complex problems are implemented. Creating more
problems when trying to solve a problem is
dysfunctional.
9. Identifying Unintended Consequences
Meet in a small group and identify
several negative unintended
consequences of implementing the
two top solutions to this problem.
What is the downside, if any, to your
agreed upon solution?
10. Asking Essential Questions
• Consider each possible solution separately
• Think about what you need to know about the
potential solution and how it might help solve the
problem
• Prepare a minimum of three questions that
you will use to guide your research for each
possible solution
• Conduct your research using credible sources(see
google news.com or bing news.com)
• Collect several pages of notes on the
problem and your preferred solutions
11. Prepare to Make Your Argument
• Once you have completed your research, you will settle on
the solutions that were supported by clear evidence
and logical arguments.
• As you argue in favor of a particular solution, you will make
several claims related to the solution.
• Each claim you make must be supported by
evidence such as research studies, statements by
established experts, data presented in charts and graphs,
reasons clearly supported by logic, or other forms of
dependable evidence.
12. Present to Your Group
• Meet with your group and present your
solutions and claims with supporting
evidence.
• Claim:_____________________________
• Evidence___________________________
• Evidence/argument__________________
• Claim:_____________________________
• Evidence___________________________
• Evidence/argument___________________
13. Write your Argumentative Paper
• Introduce your topic with background
information and the negative consequences of
not addressing the problem. Make a claim about
what needs to be done to solve the problem.
• Compose the body of your essay and
include your major points supported by claims
and evidence(details, data, examples, logical
arguments).
• Add your concluding remarks that
summarize your key points and stress the
importance of solving the problem before the
negative consequences become more severe.
15. Interdisciplinary Exploration
