The research methodology used in the study was qualitative action research. Data was collected through interactive techniques, focus groups, interviews, and observations to evaluate the effectiveness of social interactions and teamwork in the classroom. The data was analyzed using deductive and inductive approaches to identify categories related to social interaction, academic performance, and healthy coexistence. Validity was ensured through triangulation of data sources and collection methods, and by involving multiple researchers and participants in a collaborative process.

Examining Reflective Teaching Practices in the Digital AgeAJHSSR Journal
Â
ABSTRACT:Reflective teaching is the process of critically evaluating oneâs own practices to improve
effectiveness. This paper examines reflective teaching concepts from seminal thinkers like Dewey, Schön, and
Zeichner and Liston, emphasizing questioning assumptions and willingness to change. It summarizes aspects
teachers can reflect on using Richards and Lockhartâs framework spanning beliefs, decision-making, roles,
lesson structure, classroom interaction, activities, and language use. Research reviewed explores practices in
technology-rich contexts, using blogs, integrating technology in training programs, links between attitudes about
technology and reflective practices, critical thinking on technology integration resulting from course tasks, and
guided reflections on cultural competence. Key findings show that technology-oriented tasks elicit more
transformative thinking about integration compared to traditional applications. However, positive attitudes
toward technology do not necessarily translate to usage for reflection. There are also gaps between leaders and
teachers in sustaining practices, so developing reflective skills is recommended. The paper offers practical
suggestions for teachers to leverage video analysis, collaborative documentation, blogging, journaling,
annotating plans and student work, surveying students, and analyzing performance data to make reflection a
consistent habit focused on improvement.

High vs. Low Collaboration Courses: Impact on Learning Presence, Community...David Wicks
Â
Researchers demonstrated a relationship between learning presence and social engagement; however, research in this area is limited. For example, no distinctions are made as to what role faculty, students, or technology might play in facilitating social engagement. In general, researchers revealed that students' ability to self-regulate leads to more focused attention, time on-task, and in turn, these skills could lead to better learning. Given the need for more theoretical work in the area, as well as the potential practical benefits from the use of these pedagogical strategies, we sought to compare the difference between high versus low-collaboration groups on assignments, as well as courses in general. Differences in groups were measured using student grades, peer evaluation, pre and post test, and the community of inquiry framework. In addition, learning presence and social network analysis were used to assess a high-collaboration assignment.
In the current study, the researchers explored how collaborative technologies, specifically Google Docs and Google Hangouts, may be used to impact the level of learning presence (forethought and planning, performance, and reflection) students demonstrate while participating in a small group project. Participants were graduate education students in two randomly assigned sections of the same online course. The course content focused on basic educational psychology for students seeking initial teaching certification. The experimental section utilized a high-collaboration project (e.g., small group, Google Hangouts and Docs) to enhance understanding of course content while the comparison, control section employed a low-collaboration project (e.g., partner activity, Word documents) to enhance understanding of course content. Participants completed the Community of Inquiry (CoI) Survey at the end of the term which measured their perceived level of teaching, social, and cognitive presence during the course. Quantitative content analysis was used to explore occurrences of learning presence in the high-collaboration group. *Finally, we employed social network analysis (SNA) as a method of inquiry to analyze student interaction data with the high-collaboration group. SNA is used to explain relationships depicted by information flow and its influence from participants' interactions. Scholars have used SNA in the online learning context to understand individual and group dimensions of interactions.
*Social Network Analysis (SNA) will not be addressed in this presentation but will be included in the manuscript.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
Â
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 Caesarâs dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empireâs 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 Empireâs 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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as âdistorted thinkingâ.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Â
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 wasnât 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 research was linked to the interaction between students/students and teacher
with students. Due to the characteristics of this research object, the most suitable
type of research method was the qualitative. This research was designed with the
aim to identify the effectiveness regarding social interactions through sharing
activities and team work; also to understand the feelings, values, and perceptions
about healthy coexistence taking into account social reality of students. Among the
qualitative research methodologies, the type of research was action research; it
intends merely to improve teaching practices, to strengthen knowledge and to
promote collaborative and cooperative work.
3. Action research according to Garner (1996, p.8) âis more specifically as a systematic, reflective, collaborative
process that examines a situation for the purpose of planning, implementing, and evaluating changeâ.
In order to collect the required information for achieving the objectives, we used five strategies such as:
interactive technique, focus group, interview and observation.
Interactive techniques
According to GarcĂa, Gonzales, Quiroz y VelĂĄsquez (2002, p. 71) mention that interactive tenchique are
âDispositivos que activan la expresiĂłn de las personas y facilitan el hacer ver, hacer hablar, hacer recuperar,
hacer crear y hacer analizar; son mecanismos que permiten visibilizar sentimientos, vivencias y formas de
hacer, creer, pensar, actuar, sentir y relacionarâ. [Mechanism that activate the expression of people and facilitate
the do see, speak, recover, create and do analyze; are mechanisms that allow to visualize feelings, experiences
and ways of doing believe, think, perform, feel and relate]. Translate by researchers.
4. Focus group
Morgan (1998) argues that the focus group is based on 3 element of all qualitative research. The first
one are exploration and discovery; the second context and depth. Finally, interpretation.
Observation
In this study, these observations were evidenced through journals which according to Burns (1999,
p.89) âare extremely useful as a way of capturing significant reflection and eventsâ.
Interview
We used interview because Burns (1999, p.74) argued that interviews âare a conversation with a
purpose in order to explore our focus areaâ
The following table shows the type of strategies that we implemented in our study.
Table 3
Type of strategies
5. Interactive technique
(patchwork)
This technique was implemented for to know how students felt in English classes with
teaching practitioner.
Focus group Some students were also interviewed through a short focus group with open questions, in
which they expressed their opinions about the English class.
These questions were about the way the teacher taught the English class in terms of the
activities the teacher proposed for them, what did they like the most about the English
classes; work in grouping or alone and finally what they would like to learn about the
English.
Interview
Cooperating teacher
In this case implemented a speaking semi structured interview with open questions for
analyzing what were the perceptions the teacher had about the social interaction
strategies used inside English classroom.
Interview to teaching
practitioner
Co- researcher interviewed the teaching practitioner with a set of questions. Those
questions were about social interaction, feelings and collaborative work; for analyzing
their perceptions about social interaction, academic performance and healthy
coexistence.
Observation Eight observations were conducted to the one teacher involved in this investigation. In
those observation was implemented some social interaction strategies such as: games,
team work and problematic videos.
The interaction and relation among students and the teacher were taken into account; this
observation was evidenced through written journals.
Created by researchers
6. To analyze the data, we used the qualitative analysis that gave us the possibility to use the deductive
and inductive approaches in order to categorize the information we gathered as relevant data. At the
beginning of the process we had three main categories which were "Social interaction", "Academic
performance" and "Healthy coexistence".
These three categories were set as deductive; however, through the analysis new categories emerged
from each instrument we analyzed. We started reading the initial interviews we had of the cooperating
teacher and the teaching practitioner.
We started highlighting those aspects that were related with our three categories. Then, we started
reading the eight journals we had, and started to highlight, again, the aspects that were related with the
main categories. The same process was realized by reading the transcription of patchwork quilt.
Through the all instruments five inductive categories emerged: "Studentâs responses", "Teaching
strategiesâ, âCollaborative workâ, âRespectful coexistence" and "Linguistic aspect".
8. Taking into account this, we think is relevant include in this category some aspects linguistic,
related with collaborative work and students responses.
The third final category is healthy coexistenceunderstood as:
"La construcciĂłn de un modo de relaciĂłn entre las personas de una comunidad,
sustentada en el respeto mutuo y en la solidaridad recĂproca, expresada en la
interrelaciĂłn armoniosa y sin violencia entre los diferentes actores y estamentos de la
Comunidad Educativa". (MINEDUC, 2005; Maldonado, 2004).
[The construction of a way of relation among the people from a community, based on
the mutual respect and solidarity, is expressed in the harmony interrelationship without
violence between different agents and statements of the educational community].
Translate by researcher.
9. The last category was Collaborative learning, according to Paz Dennen (2000, p. 205) "is
a learning method that use social interaction as means of knowledge building" This category
included studentâs responses, collaborative work and respectful coexistence.
During this research procedure, eight categories of the social interaction strategies
emerged, which are shown in the following table that which is divided in three parts,
categories inductive, deductive and final categories.

11. This approach allowed us the opportunity to observe, interact, and be part of the
educational context we were interested in as a way of accomplishing our research
objectives.
Denzin (1970) proposes five types of triangulation, and we decided to implement
three of them. Data, methodological and investigator or providing validity.
The following tables shows validity process.

12. Data ïŒ Used multiple data sources.
ïŒ Cooperating teacher and Students.
ïŒ Different times of data collection.
ïŒ Fourth week, two hours per week.

13. According to Burns (1999), the use of triangulation for data analysis provides validity;
therefore, we decided to implement another way for analysis provides validity such as.
Table 6
Validity process.
Dialogic validity
It was dialogic because through social interaction strategies it was
established a constant reflective dialogues between participants and
teaching practitioners.
Catalytic validity We were always looking for a change and an improvement based on
the reflection and empowerment of the whole social interaction
strategies.
Democratic validity It was democratic because it was a collaborative work that included
the teaching practitioners and researcher in every aspect of the
process.
