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.

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.

2. Project Outline
National Curriculum Framework 2005 lays down the
following guiding principles.
Connecting knowledge to life outside the school;
Ensuring that learning shifts away from rote method;
Teaching should aim at enhancing children’s natural desire to
learn.
Knowledge needs to be distinguished from information, and
teaching needs to be seen as a professional activity, not as
coaching for memorisation or as transmission of facts.
Activity to be the heart of the child’s attempt to make sense of
the world around him/her.
3. Kashmir Scenario
The social infrastructure in Kashmir remained under tremendous
stress due to disturbed conditions resulting in major disruption in the
social fabric.
The children who were born and raised in this environment faced
the brunt and remained at the mercy of the unsettling times.
The overall growth of the children as also the education system was
hampered impacting their psychological, educational and physical
processes of growth.
There was the loss of creative expression, self esteem resulting in
lack of confidence in their prospects of life.
The children were also exposed to prevailing fear and anxiety in the
society.
4. INTACH’s Initiatives
In 2009, INTACH, J&K implemented a pilot project in Kashmir
valley in collaboration with the Directorate of School
Education and University of Kashmir with 50 school children
from Kashmir.
A residential workshop was organised aiming at exploring and
enhancing the learning skills of the children through the
medium of theatre, painting, creative writing, video and
photography.
The participating children also undertook projects on the
basis of the methodologies that were evolved in the
workshop.
This project was a major success in achieving the purpose of
5. Outcomes
After deliberations with the experts, education professionals
and the support institutions, a three year continuous
engagement starting from June 2012 with schools has
been proposed.
The project is supported in terms of knowledge and funding
by Sir Dorabji Tata trust.
6. Project Goal
“The Project’s goal is to improve quality of learning
opportunities available to children
and enable them to broaden their horizons and
make schools a positive experience”
7. Project Objective
Development of new child centred
creative learning methodologies.
Improved and creative environment in
schools.
Development of life skills and self-
confidence in children.
Increase participation of children in
education and awareness on creative
arts and education as a career option.
8. Flow of the Project
Preparatory activities: The project would take forward
the gains from the pilot phase by working with selected
government schools. The proposed phase covers 2
districts in Kashmir, namely Kupwara and Srinagar
and 2 districts of Jammu division, Jammu and Rajouri.
In each district 25 schools have been selected where
intensive activities have been planned. The project aims at
coverage of 5000 children in the 4 districts.
9. Flow of the Project
Orientation workshop with school teachers to
arrive at a work-plan. In addition, the
curriculum, resource material is also
formalized for feedback from teachers.
The training of teachers being undertaken by
experts at the district level. A resource team
constituted to undertake structured activities in
consultation with school authorities.
10. First workshop for initialising the project
(05 – 07 July 2012)
“Improving the quality of education
through child participation & creative
programs”

resource persons on the subject.
Identifying the inadequacies in the education system
at the school level.
13. Comments from the experts
Vinod Raina:
Quoted Dr. B. D. Sharma, who facilitated the
working of the program.
“ MP ke education ki haalat itni buri hai ki aur
koi isse zyada kharab nahi kar sakta…..”
14. ….continued
Challenging the current examination pattern,
Hoshanabad Science Teaching Program (HSTP)
stressed on the need to innovate assessment
programs which no longer become a test of
memory, but understanding.
In 1994, ‘Learning without burden’, a committee
was set up at NCERT. Mentored by Prof. Yash
Pal, the report of the committee stressed on
learning while simultaneously relieving children of
psychological and physical burden.
15. ….continued
Home and the environment are important for
learning and must complement the school
education. The void between the two creates a
conflict.
The most important thing in learning is
language. We should recognise the potential
of a child who learns language at his home
without any formal education. This potential is
what needs to be fully harnessed.
16. ….continued
A child should be the constructor of knowledge in
cultural and linguistic background rather than just
be the recipient of information.
Art and culture can be used as a powerful means
to change the education system of J&K.
Impatience is not permitted in the process of
teaching.
Learning has to be both on the part of teacher as
17. Anita Rampal
Teachers frame syllabi as per their free will,
and don’t understand what is it that a child
wants to learn. Students are blamed for their
rote learning methods.
Children should relate their experiences on a
larger socio-cultural canvas. They should be
exposed to concepts like inclusiveness,
diversity, gender sensitization, marginalised
communities. This is an essential life skill.
18. ….continued
With the new NCF syllabi and textbooks we
see various questions that demand personal
answers. Thus, children immediately relate it
to their lives and then construct their own
knowledge.
In order to breakdown the deep sense of math
anxiety, it is crucial to place mathematical
concepts in a real life context as for example
has been done in the class 4th (NCERT)
chapter, “ Building With Bricks”
19. M. Shafi Rather
We have large percentage of students who are
suffering from psychosomatic disorders because
of the present education system.
The children prefer to stay and study at home as
the schools have lost their esteem and position in
a society.
Existing education system should first be
demolished and then the process of
20. Conclusions
Based on the interaction of the three days of the
workshop, the
following conclusions were drawn.
It will be ideal that the program is implemented on
continuous basis in each school. This will ensure that
all aspects of the program are absorbed by the
students and they are able to pick up and transact the
skills acquired in the workshops;
The teachers are also expected to do their own follow
ups on the basis of workshops and school training of
the program.
