The document discusses the revision and editing processes in writing. Revision focuses on big picture issues like development, organization, and coherence. Editing looks at minor grammatical issues like spelling, word choice, and punctuation. Both processes are important parts of strengthening a written work from the initial draft. Revision ensures the overall structure and logic while editing polishes the smaller details.

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.

2. Revision
The revision phase occurs after the first
draft
Revision focuses on big picture issues –
development, organization, topic
sentence/thesis, unity and coherence
Proofreading (or editing) is a different
step
3. Topic Sentence
Does the topic sentence convey the
paragraph’s controlling idea?
The topic sentence MUST reflect/explain what the paragraph is
about. That’s its job.
If the topic sentence does not convey the main idea, either the topic
sentence or the paragraph must be rewritten.
Does the topic sentence appear as the
first or last sentence in the paragraph?
This makes it easier for the reader to locate and understand.
Most of the time, your topic sentence should be the first
sentence of a paragraph.
4. Topic Sentence Practice
I have many friends. I know that if I talk to Sean about a
problem, he won’t repeat it to anyone. He’s also great to talk to
because he never really tells me what I should do. Instead, he
gives me what he thinks are all of my options and then helps me
decide what to do. Karen, on the other hand, is a wonderful
person, and I love to spend time with her. But I know she has
trouble keeping a secret. She is great to talk to about small
problems (things I don’t care if anyone else knows about), but
not the big problems. These friends mean a lot to me.
Does the underlined topic sentence express the main idea of the
paragraph?
5. Topic Sentence Practice
I have many friends – Is this paragraph about the student’s many
friends, or two in particular?
A better topic sentence would be “Sean and Karen are two of my
very different friends.” That better pulls together the point of the
paragraph.
6. Development
Does the paragraph contain specific details that
support the topic sentence?
Broad, general statements are not convincing, and are often
boring.
The more specific you are, the more your readers will
understand.
Does the paragraph include enough details to
explain the topic sentence fully?
Make sure you have explained/discussed every aspect of
your topic sentence.
7. Development Practice
Which is better?
Sarah is a talented musician.
In high school, Sarah placed first in every regional and state solo
flute competition.
8. Development Practice
In high school, Sarah placed first in every
regional and state solo flute competition.
This sentence not only tells us that she is talented, it also tells us
how we know she is talented, and even what instrument she
plays. The reader has a much better idea about Sarah in this
sentence.
9. Unity
Do all the sentences in the paragraph support
the topic sentence?
Sometimes it’s easy for a digression or unrelated idea to slip
into your paragraph. If it does not directly support the topic
sentence, it needs to be removed.
10. Reading helps bring back memories from our own
lives. I never liked to read until I had Ms. Fischer. If we
are reading about the thrill of McGwire’s record in home
runs, we might remember a great sports event in our
lives. I never liked sports, but my mom made me play
soccer. If we are reading about Jules Verne traveling
around the world, memories of our favorite trips might
come to the surface of our minds. I liked Europe, but all I
wanted to do was go home. I was also missing my
girlfriend. Reading is a wonderful way to lose ourselves
in the lives of others while reliving some important
moments in our own lives.
Which sentences are unnecessary?
11. Reading helps bring back memories from our
own lives. I never liked to read until I had Ms.
Fischer. If we are reading about the thrill of
McGwire’s record in home runs, we might
remember a great sports event in our lives. I never
liked sports, but my mom made me play soccer. If

but all I wanted to do was go home. I was also
missing my girlfriend. Reading is a wonderful way
to lose ourselves in the lives of others while reliving
some important moments in our own lives.
12. Organization
Is the paragraph organized logically?
Have you used chronological, spatial, or emphatic order?
Is this the best, most easily understood pattern for your
reader?
13. Organization Practice
I know that I have about three feet when I get out of bed
before I run into the dresser. It is especially bad at night, when I
don’t have my contacts in and I have to get from my bed to the
bathroom. My sight is so bad that I can’t even see three feet in
front of me without my contacts. From the doorway, I then go left
and walk three steps to the bathroom. From the dresser, if I turn
right, I have to walk five steps to get to the doorway of my room.
If I reverse my steps and count backward, I can usually make it
to and from the bathroom without breaking a toe or crashing into
a wall.
Does this make sense? How could we move
sentences around to make it better?
14. Organization Practice
I know that I have about three feet when I get out of bed
before I run into the dresser. My sight is so bad that I can’t even
see three feet in front of me without my contacts. It is especially
bad at night, when I don’t have my contacts in and I have to get

doorway of my room. From the doorway, I then go left and walk
three steps to the bathroom. If I reverse my steps and count
backward, I can usually make it to and from the bathroom
without breaking a toe or crashing into a wall.
15. Coherence
Do the sentences in the paragraph move
smoothly and logically from one to the next?
The connections between ideas may seem obvious to you,
but your reader may not be able to follow your train of
thought.
Use transitions!
16. Coherence Practice
People should spay or neuter their animals so that we don’t
end up with kittens and puppies that no one wants. A family
might have a male cat that they let roam the neighborhood, and
this cat might get a female cat pregnant. Who will care for the
new kittens? Some people give them away or take them to a
neighborhood SPCA. Some people just let the kittens roam free,
hoping someone will take care of them. This irresponsible action
causes more problems.
Could we add some transitions to connect the ideas better?
17. Coherence Practice
People should spay or neuter their animals so
that we don’t end up with kittens and puppies
that no one wants. For example, a family might
have a male cat that they let roam the
neighborhood, and this cat might get a female
cat pregnant. Then who will care for the new
kittens? Some people give them away or take
them to a neighborhood SPCA. Some people, on
the other hand, just let the kittens roam free,
hoping someone will take care of them. This
irresponsible action causes more problems,
however.
18. Revision Checklist
Does the topic sentence convey the paragraph’s controlling idea?
Does the topic sentence appear as the first or last sentence in the
paragraph?
Does the paragraph contain specific details that support the topic
sentence?
Does the paragraph include enough details to explain the topic sentence
fully?
Do all the sentences in the paragraph support the topic sentence?
Is the paragraph organized logically?
Do the sentences in the paragraph move smoothly and logically from one
to the next?
19. Editing (also called proofreading)
Editing comes after revising in the writing
process.
Editing looks at minor issues, including:
Spelling
Grammar
Word Use
Formatting
20. Editing Checklist
Does each sentence have a main subject and verb?
Do all subjects and verbs agree?
Do all pronouns agree with their nouns?
Are modifiers as close as possible to the words they modify?
Are sentences punctuated correctly?
Are words capitalized correctly?
Are words spelled correctly?
Does your paper follow requirements made by professor?
(font size, spacing, etc)
