Speaking, Writing, and Listening skills, it is one among the four primary language learning skills. So, it is looking at a collection of written symbols and deriving meaning from them. When we read, our brains translate the written symbols/letters, punctuation, and spaces that our eyes see into words, sentences, and paragraphs that make sense to us. We can read aloud or silently (in our heads).

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.

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.

Reading for college
First, let’s talk about
reading speed
This is not about trying to read as FAST
as you can . . .
. . . It is about learning to read
as effectively as you can
3. Test your reading speed
Okay, now for some math:
Count the number of words in ten lines and write
that down;
now divide that number by 10. That is the average
number of words per line. Write it down;
now count the number of lines you read and
write it on a piece of paper. Write it down;
Haroon
4. Test your reading speed
multiply that number by the number of words per line,
and you have roughly how many words you read.
Write down the number you get
You read for ten minutes. Divide the total numbers
of words you read by 10 and you have your words-
per-minute.
Write it down.
5. Assessing your findings
Haroon
RPM Status
<120 wpm Poor, slow
121-180 wpm Below average
181-240 wpm Average
241-350 wpm College level if good retention
351-500 Above average
501-1000 Superior
>1000 Genius
6. Main causes of slower reading
word-by-word reading;
slow perceptual reaction time,
i.e., slowness of recognition;
vocalization—habitual or for
comprehension;
Inefficient eye movements;
Regression;
faulty habits of attention and
concentration;
Haroon
7. Main causes of slower reading
lack of practice in reading—
especially large amounts;
fear of losing comprehension;
habitual slow reading;
poor evaluation of which
aspects are important and which
are unimportant;
the effort to remember
everything rather than to
remember selectively.
8. So now what?
There are three main factors involved in
improving reading speed:
(1) the desire to improve,
(2) the willingness to try new techniques, and
(3) the motivation to practice.
The average college student reads about 350 words
per minute. A "good" reading speed is around 500 to
700 words per minute, but some people can read a
thousand words per minute.
What makes the difference?
Haroon
9. So now what?
Most people can double their reading
speed while still maintaining equal or
even higher comprehension.
Warning: In order to learn to read rapidly and well you
must have acquired the necessary vocabulary.
When you can understand college-level
materials, you are ready to practice reading
faster.
10. Strategies for effective reading
Pre-Read: Skim the piece looking for sub-
headings, images, graphs etc. Try to get a
sense of what the reading is about.
You can call this READING FOR PLOT
(like reading the end of a mystery novel
before you get there);
Pre-think: ask yourself some questions that
this reading might answer, things on the
syllabus perhaps, or from the lecture. Think
BEFORE you read.
You can call this CREATIVE THINKING;
Haroon
11. Strategies for effective reading
Read in blocks: Read several words at
once (a phrase, half a line, or a full line in
textbooks with columns);
Pause ONLY at the end of sections. Don’t
reread, but jot down what you remember at
the end of each section. You can go back
and reread at the end.
Don’t wait for the action replay. Just read!
If you find yourself falling asleep--
take a nap! DO NOT keep reading.
It is a waste of time. Just give it up
for a bit.

14. Tricks for successful reading
Reading one word at a time in college is like
sounding out letters or parts of words.
It TAKES TOO LONG
Instead . . .
Read in blocks: Read several words
at once (a phrase, half a line, or a full
line in textbooks with columns);
We are going to practice this
Haroon
15. Tricks for successful reading
Think about how much effort it takes for your eyes to
focus on EACH WORD AT A TIME!
Let’s play the focus game for a minute. Focus on something a long
way away, now focus on something close up. Now look to your left
and focus. Now to your right. Now close up again.
It took time for you to focus, right? That same process is occurring
every time you FOCUS on a word if you read word-by-word. See??
It TAKES TOO LONG
Your eyes get TIRED
READ IN CLUMPS (clauses, phrases)
Let your eyes settle on several words at once (a
phrase, half a line, or a full line in textbooks with
columns). SEE the words, but don’t move your eyes
or say them.
Haroon
16. Tricks for successful reading
Take a sheet of paper and fold it in half
Place it under a line of text
If the text is in columns, put a dot on the
piece of paper in the middle of the line
•
As you read,
move the piece of paper down the page so it
is always under the line you are reading.
Look at the DOT
and SEE the words,
but do not SAY them
Haroon
17. Haroon
Using the eye-guide
•Move the eye-guide down
the page as you read.
•One line at a time.
•Focus on the dot, and just
see the words

topics/brainreading.pdf.
18. Here are the other tricks
Vocabulary - Wait until you've finished reading to
look up unfamiliar words. (If you stop, you'll
reduce your level of comprehension.)
Comprehension - to improve comprehension,
repeat the main points of the chapter after closing
the book. See how many specific details you can
recall. The more you interact with your text, the
more you'll recall. Recollection and
comprehension require a vigorous approach.
Practice 1: Skimming & Scanning - find an
interesting newspaper column or magazine
article. Rapidly read the article, sampling just the
first sentence or two of each paragraph and a few
key words. Jot down all the facts you can
remember. Then reread the article slowly, giving
yourself a point for every item you can recall.
Haroon
19. Now YOU need to practice…
The Basic Program:
Two or three times a day, read something
you enjoy for 15 to 20 minutes without
stopping. Time yourself to within 30
seconds.
Record your reading rate and chart your
progress. Recording and charting are
essential if you wish to make real progress.
Push yourself gently as you read. If your
mind wanders, get it back on track.
Haroon
20. Now YOU need to practice…
Set reading-rate goals for yourself. Aim
for a 10% increase in your reading rate
over the previous record.
Practice skimming & scanning by finding
an interesting newspaper column or
magazine article and rapidly reading the
article, sampling just the first sentence or
two of each paragraph and a few key
words. Jot down all the facts you can
remember. Then reread the article slowly,
giving yourself a point for every item you
can recall.
READ YOUR TEXBOOKS ACTIVELY!
21. REVIEW:
TO ACTIVE READ YOU:
Ask general beginning questions;
Set a purpose by pre-viewing a
chapter, and deciding what you hope
to learn;
Guide yourself through the reading by
skimming first, looking at its length,
sub-headings (the plot), images,
charts and graphs, etc.;
Make notes, highlight, and summarize
AFTER the reading is done!
AND BECOME MORE EFFECTIVE!!!
Haroon
22. Haroon
Okay, let’s try this
• Go back to the same piece you read
at the beginning.
• Take the piece of paper (your eye
guide) and put it under the first line.
• Reread this piece,
• Move your eye guide down the
page looking at the dot and just
seeing the words.
• I’ll stop you after ten minutes.
23. Haroon
Finally
The key to rapid reading
•Consciously try to read faster.
•Consciously force your eyes to move
and work at ever higher and higher
speeds.
Rapid reading is
making your eyes and brain work
together to process words at a
high rate of speed.
