Srinivasa Ramanujan was a renowned Indian mathematician who made extraordinary contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions despite his lack of formal training. Some of his key achievements include formulating the Ramanujan prime and discovering the Ramanujan theta function. He worked closely with his mentor, G.H. Hardy, at Cambridge University where he was elected Fellow of the Royal Society. Unfortunately, Ramanujan's life was cut short at the young age of 32, but he left a lasting legacy as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time.

National Mathematics Day Celebration 22 DecemberRakibulSK3
Srinivasa Ramanujan was a great Indian
mathematician . He was born on 22nd December
1887 in Erode (Tamil Nadu) during British
Government .His full name was Srinivasa Iyenger
Ramanujan . His father name was Kuppuswamy
Srinivasa Iyenger and his mother’s name was
Komalatammal. He was enrolled in the Town
higher Secondary School from 1897-1904 , Wherehe encountered formal mathematics for the first Time.
By age 11, he had exhausted the mathematical knowledge of two college students who were lodgers at his home .He was latter lent a book on advanced
trigonometry written by S.L.Loney. He completely mastered on this book by the age of 13 and discovered
Sophisticated theorems on his own . In July 1909,
Ramanujan married S.Janaki Ammal , who was then
Just 10 years old . The Cambridge mathematician
G.H. Hardy arranged for Ramanujan to visit Trinity
College in Cambridge .Ramanujan arrived in Cambridge in 1914 and He completed his graduation from Cambridge University ,London . He made a lot of his theories which are very popular in the world and That is why His theories still get used in lots of countries . He wrote many books Comprising his theories and formulas . He is famous for his contribution to number theory and infinite Series .His birthday is celebrated as National Mathematics Day in India every year .He was died on 26th April 1920 ,at the age of 32 years in Madras . He Worked for a very short period but his teaching are Still alive in many people’s mind and text books .His Contribution in the Field of mathematics has been immense and will be remembered forever.
During his short life, Ramanujan independently compiled nearly 3,900 results (mostly identities and equations).[6] Many were completely novel; his original and highly unconventional results, such as the Ramanujan prime, the Ramanujan theta function, partition formulae and mock theta functions, have opened entire new areas of work and inspired a vast amount of further research.[7] Of his thousands of results, all but a dozen or two have now been proven correct.[8] The Ramanujan Journal, a scientific journal, was established to publish work in all areas of mathematics influenced by Ramanujan,[9] and his notebooks—containing summaries of his published and unpublished results—have been analysed and studied for decades since his death as a source of new mathematical ideas. As late as 2012, researchers continued to discover that mere comments in his writings about "simple properties" and "similar outputs" for certain findings were themselves profound and subtle number theory results that remained unsuspected until nearly a century after his death.[10][11] He became one of the youngest Fellows of the Royal Society and only the second Indian member, and the first Indian to be elected a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. Of his original letters, Hardy stated that a single look was enough to show they could have been written only by a mathematician of the highest Ramanujan.

Ramanujan in Mathematics
Ramanujan’s knowledge of mathematics (most of which he had worked out for himself) was startling. Although he was almost completely unaware of modern developments in mathematics, his mastery of continued fractions was unequaled by any living mathematician. He worked out the Riemann series, the elliptic integrals, hypergeometric series, the functional equations of the zeta function, and his own theory of divergent series.
Pythagoras of Samos (c. 570 – 495 BCE) was a Greek philosopher and mathematician. He is best known for proving Pythagoras’ Theorem, but made many other mathematical and scientific discoveries.
Pythagoras tried to explain music in a mathematical way, and discovered that two tones sound “nice” together (consonant) if the ratio of their frequencies is a simple fraction.
He also founded a school in Italy where he and his students worshipped mathematics almost like a religion, while following a number of bizarre rules – but the school was eventually burned down by their adversaries.
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.

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.

1. Srinivasa Ramanujan Iyengar (Best known as S. Ramanujan)(22 Dec
1887 - 26 April 1920)
The Man Who
Knew Infinity
2. About His History
Born - 22 December 1887
Place - Kumbakonam, Madras Presidency
Died - 26 April 1920
Place - Chetput, Madras, British India
College - Government Arts College
Pachaiyappa’s College
Cambridge University
Academic Advisors - G.H.Hardy
J.E.Littlewood
3. Example of His Brain
Teacher: n / n =1, for every integer n.
Ramanujan: “Is zero divided by zero is also one?”
Ramanujan’s Answer: “Zero divided by zero maybe anything. The zero of the
numerator may be several times the zero of the denominator advice versa”.(7 year
old prodigy was thinking of limits and limiting processes.)
4. The Genius Mathematician
S. Ramanujan hailed as an all-time great mathematician, like Euler, Gauss or
Jacobi, for his natural genius, has left behind 4000 original theorems, despite his
lack of formal education and a short life-span.
Probably Ramanujan’s life has no parallel in the history of human thought. He
was a autodidact mathematical genius not only of the twentieth century but for
all time to come.
Discovered theorems of his own
5. His Ups & Downs
After high school, Ramanujan passed a competitive examination in English and Mathematics
and secured the Scholarship. He joined the Government Arts college, in the F.A.(First
Examination in Arts) class at the age of 18 years.
Due to his love & preoccupation with Mathematics, he could not pass in English and Sanskrit
and hence was not promoted to the Senior F.A. Class.
He lost his Scholarship & forced to discontinue his studies due to this and the poverty of his
family.
However, he appeared privately for the F.A.examination but failed to pass the university
examinations and this marked the end of his formal education.
After having failed in his F.A. class at College, he ran from pillar to post in search of a
benefactor for 6 (from 18 years of age to 24 years) years.
6. His Ups & Downs
He tried for tutoring assignments to earn livelihood but failed. His love and dedication for
math continued.
He lived in absolute poverty. Once he said to one of his friends, “when food is problem, how
can I find money for paper? I may require four reams of paper every month.”
With the help of a recommendation letter from a mathematician, Ramanujan secured a
clerical post in the Accounts Section of the Madras Port Trust at an age of 24 years.
Meanwhile in 1911 at an age of 23 years, the first full length (15 page) research paper of
Ramanujan, entitled: “Some properties of Bernoulli Numbers”, appeared in the Journal of the
Indian Mathematical Society. This brought him to the forefront of international mathematics.
After going through a paper by British mathematician Hardy, about some theorems on prime
numbers, where he claimed that no definite expression has been found as yet, Ramanujan
derived the expression which very nearly approximated to the real result.
7. His Ups & Down
The orchestrated efforts of his admirers, resulted in inducing the Madras University, in offering him
the first research scholarship of the University in May 1913; then in offering him a scholarship of 250
pounds a year for five years &100 pounds for passage by ship and for initial outfit to go to England in
1914 at an age of 26 years.
Ramanujan initially refused to go to England possibly due to his caste prejudice. But after mentoring
from Neville, Ramanujan finally set sail for England at a age of 26 years in 1914.
Prior to Ramanujan departure to England, Prof. Littlehailes & Mr. Arthur Davies arranged with the
University for £ 60 (out of Scholarship amount of £ 250 ) per year to be sent to his parents in India.
Thus, he fulfilled his responsibilities as the eldest son of the family.
At Cambridge, Ramanujan worked with Littlewood and Hardy, mathematicians of repute of that time.
Ramanujan was awarded the B.A. degree by research (this degree was later renamed as PhD)in
March 1916 at an age of 28 years, for his work on Highly Composite Numbers.
He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London in February 1918 at an age of 30 years. He
was the second Indian to become a Fellow of the Royal Society (1stone was in 1841, around 80 years
prior) & one of the youngest Fellows in the entire history of the Royal Society.
8. Role of Prof. G.H. Hardy
The role of G.H. Hardy (1877 - 1947), Professor of Mathematics at
Trinity College, Cambridge, in the life and career of Ramanujan is
immeasurable, peerless and beyond praise.
Convinced that Ramanujan was a natural genius, Hardy made up his
mind that Ramanujan should be brought to Cambridge.
The eccentric British mathematician G.H. Hardy is known for his
achievements in number theory and mathematical analysis. But he is
perhaps even better known for his adoption and mentoring of the self-
taught mathematical genius, Ramanujan.
Before writing to Hardy, Ramanujan had written to two well-known
Cambridge mathematicians. But both of them had expressed their
inability to help Ramanujan.
9. Story of Hardy – Ramanujan “Taxicab numbers”
A common anecdote about Ramanujan relates how Hardy arrived at Ramanujan’s
house in a cab numbered 1729, a number he claimed to be totally uninteresting.
Ramanujan is said to have stated on the spot that, on the contrary, it was actually a
very interesting number mathematically, being the smallest number representable
in two different ways as a sum of two cubes. Such numbers are now sometimes
referred to as "taxicab numbers".
10. Taxicab – number
1,729 is the smallest number which can be represented in two different ways as the sum
of two cubes:
1729 = 13 + 123
= 93 + 103
It is also incidentally the product of 3 prime numbers:
1729 = 7 X 13 X 19
The largest known similar number is :
885623890831 = 75113 + 77303
= 87593 + 59783
= 3943 X 14737 X 15241

24. Achievements
1) Divergent Series:- When
Dr. Hardy examined his
investigation – “I had never
seen anything the least
like them before. A single
look at them is enough to
show that this could only be
written by
Mathematician of highest
class”.
2) Hyper Geometric series
and continued Fraction:
He was compared with Euler
and Jacobi.
3) Definite Integrals
4)Elliptic Functions
5)Partition functions
6)Fractional Differentiation:
He gave a meaning to
Eulerian second integral for
all values of n .He proved
x ⁿ− اe −ͯ = Gamma is true for
all Gamma.
25. 7)Theory of Numbers: The modern theory of
numbers is
most difficult branch of mathematician .It has
many
unsolved problems. Good Example is of Gold
Bach’s
Theorem which states that every even number is
sum
of two prime numbers. Ramanujan discovered
Reimann’s series , concerning prime numbers .
For him
every integer was one of his personal friend.
He detected congruence, symmetries
and
relationships and different wonderful
properties.
8. Partition of whole numbers: Take case of 3. It
can
be written as…
3+0,1+2,1+1+1
He developed a formula
, for partition of any number
which can be made to yield the
required result by a series of
successive approximation.
”.
26. 9). Highly Composite Numbers : Highly
composite
number is opposite of prime numbers.
Prime number has
two divisions, itself and unity . A highly
composite
number has more divisions than any
preceding number
like: 2,4,6,12,24,36,48,60,120,etc.He
studied the
structure ,distribution and special forms of
highly
composite numbers. Hardy says –
“Elementary analysis
of highly composite numbers is most
remarkable and
shows very clearly Ramanujan’s extra-
ordinary mastery
over algebra of inequalities
27. Greatest masters in the field of higher geometric theories and
continued fractions.
He could work out modular equation, work out theorems of complex
multiplication, mastery of continued fraction.
Found for him self functional equation of zeta function.
Mathematician whom only first class mathematicians follow.
England honoured by Royal Society and Trinity Fellowship.
