The document discusses a proposed new approach to sex education in Malaysian schools. It may introduce topics related to reproduction and sexuality as part of the school curriculum within the next two years. This is seen as a progressive measure for largely Muslim Malaysia, as most Muslim countries abstain from discussing sexuality in schools. The proposed syllabus intends to cover biological reproduction as well as sociological aspects of sexuality and sexual health from ages four through thirteen. It may help prepare young people to cope with sexuality in a landscape where sexual images are widespread online and on television.
Sex education in indian schools(for bigenners)Priya Verma
In this presentation, i tried to tackle one of the most important yet most avoided part of education: SEX EDUCATION. The goal of this presentation will be twofold: first, we’ll discuss the role of sex education on young minds and how sex education is implemented in most Indian schools. During this, we'll discuss also about myths and facts regarding sex education among parents and teachers too and Controversies over there in implementation of sex education.
These slides help parents learn what adolescents and teens need to know about sex and how to start the conversations. Based on my eManual, Sexuality Talking Points.
Children and women, college bound and overall as a gender are the most vulnerable members of our societies to sexual abuse. Here are some important guidelines that we should inculcate in our children to help protect them.
Finally after months of reading, discussions, info gathering, social debates and analysis my powerpoint presentation on a sensitive topic is complete. It aims to clear away the taboo around a very big problem which was under the carpet for so many years in india.:) :) its available on Slideshare.
* All Statictics are from government reports and NGO findings.
* Videos open on single click. there are two video slides.

Part I. Overcoming Bias
I am a person who firmly believes that everyone is equal despite anything. The fact that one may be of a different color or religion does no affected me because I think that everyone is equal. Also, for people who come from a poor background, I feel like they should be considered to fit into society. My culture can affect my professional work, especially when working in an area that is sensitive to culture. It can have a affirmative impact on the people I labor with because they will learn to interact with others well. On the other hand, institutions where cultural diversity is not considered necessary, it will have a negative influence on me because expressing the difference would be difficult. I believe that every individual has a right to experience equality. Oppression is not suitable for individuals who are from a different culture or background. Also, people should not exercise bias in workplaces by making decisions that affect others and benefit themselves.
To be friendly and interact with people without fear despite their differences- an individual's behavior affects how they think (Gibson & Barr, 2017). For example, if a student walks up to me to ask a question, it is my role to be friendly to them to ensure that they do not fear to approach me another time. Also, for the students who come from poor backgrounds, it is essential to be friendly to them to ensure that they concentrate on their studies. It will help boost their performance because they will know that the teacher does not worry about the difference but in offering them quality education. Hanging out with people who have a positive attitude compared to mine- for example, being culturally insensitive can be eliminated by sensitive people. Interacting more with people who take into account all cultures can have significant influence on how I handle people from different cultures. To identify situations when the biases affect my behavior- when working with children in a class setup, it is essential to assess every student to know their strengths and weaknesses. Also, through observation, one can identify a student who is having difficulties in class and help them (Gibson & Barr, 2017). To avoid bias, concentrating on helping one child can affect others because they will feel that they are not necessary. Therefore, it is essential to focus on all the kids to ensure that equality is observed. Being biased affects one's behavior and attitude towards things.
The strategies chosen can help build a positive relationship between educators, children, and parents to ensure that every party is satisfied. Working with individuals who are not biased can help reduce biases. Being friendly can help children from a poor background to study well because of positive energy. It will help their parents to work hard to ensure that their kids study well. Also, people with a positive attitude can help in the development of the school so that it can account for all studen.

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.
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.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

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.

5. BNE: The Malaysian Government plans has revolutionary drafted that may
introduce
the bees and the birds in its schools. A sex education syllabus may become part of
the school curriculum within the next two years. This is seen by many to be a very
progressive measure for largely Muslim Malaysia. It is the norm in Muslim countries
to abstain from all things sexual in schools. Sex is subject of a taboo somewhat
outside of the classroom too. With the onslaught of sexual images, information and
misinformation on TV and the Internet, it seems a timely move by the Malaysian
Education Ministry to
cope with its youngsters to prepare their sexuality.
The proposed syllabus intends to cover the nitty-gritty of biological reproduction
and more sociological aspects of sexuality and sexual dangers. Four-year-olds will
recognize to learn how and protect themselves from “sexual predators”, while
children from thirteen will learn about the diseases of sexually transmitted dangers.
Other topics, according to Malaysia’s New Straits Times, include relationships,
marriage, sexual health, puberty, sexual harassment or abuse, the challenges of
marriage and the rights of children. With Malaysia addressing this issue, it too be
long may not before other Muslim countries follow its example.
