The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
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.

3. “We must not compromise.
We must say to all the
political parties: ‘what are
you going to stop doing
to the system, to allow
the system to focus on
the important and not to
continue to work on the
urgent?’
We must prioritise CPD even
though it may never be the
most urgent thing on the
list.”
David Weston
Teacher Development Trust
4. Maintain a tight
focus on the
importance of
evidence based
professional learning
opportunities
1
6. 3
Ensure that Ofsted
becomes a part of
the fabric of school
improvement and
does not drive
the urgent at the
expense of the
important
7. Develop a system
of accreditation
which validates
and acknowledges
the impact and
value of on-going
school based
professional
learning activities
4
8. 5
Review and clarify
the position of the
‘lead’ school in a
teaching school
alliance and the
consequences if it
does not remain
‘outstanding’
9. “The big 6 really are a big 6.
We need to enable teaching
schools to feel good about
specialising in a few areas
and build some critical
masses between them.
We need to do some really
good research about what
works when you major on
ITE or CPD.”
Philippa Cordingley
CUREE
10.
11. “To improve quality,
professional learning is
enhanced by combining the
practice expertise in schools
and the research knowledge in
universities.
In particular, collaboration
between schools and
universities through practitioner
enquiry in collaborative R&D
supports access to new
knowledge, maintains the
rigour of enquiry and enriches
and deepens everyone’s
learning.”
Vivienne Porritt
UCL Institute of Education
12. Ensure there is a focus
on the skills across
the whole group,
rather than just the
lead school so that
knowledge becomes
‘co-creation’ across
all schools
1
16. 5
Through inter-school
collaboration, ‘keep the
end in mind’ when
developing learning
opportunities.
Ensure these translate
into the need of pupils
attending schools with
different identities,
challenges and
opportunities
17.
18. “We develop practice
knowledge effectively when
we feel safe to take risks and
when we work collaboratively
with people we trust enough
to expose our professional
vulnerabilities.
Without these conditions,
we play safe and do the
‘performance’ lessons we do
when being judged.”
Professor Pete Dudley
19. 1
Ensure that there is clarity on the purpose of
lesson observations so that formative
development is distinct
20. 2
Form a knowledge
creating school
through peer reflection
groups, lesson study
and research processes
combined with activities
to inform these with
specialist expertise
22. 4
Enable sharing of practice in a
non-judgemental culture which also
acknowledges the importance of risk taking
23. 5
Develop and exploit
the opportunities
of technology as
a collaborative
tool within agreed
protocols which
ensure teacher
control and
permissioning
