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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

When you open Word, you’ll have
options to either create a blank
document, or to create one from a
template.
There are a variety of templates to
pick from, including business
templates for resumes and various
publications, marketing flyers,
personal cards, and more.
11. Creating a document
from a template
There are even templates for
academic papers, including ones for
both APA style and MLA style reports
and articles.
You can download the template and
edit its style on your own computer, or
work on your document in your
Internet browser.
13. Adjusting formatting within a document
from the Home ribbon
In the Home ribbon, you can adjust
elements relating to font, including size,
color and even spacing, and paragraph, like
indentation and line spacing.
The Styles group allows you to change these
elements all at once, throughout your entire
document.
To see more styles, you can expand what
you see by clicking on the down arrow at the
bottom of the Styles box.
14. Adjusting formatting within a document
from the Home ribbon
The Font and Paragraph groups can be
applied to the entire document or to
sections of a document.
Simply highlight the areas you’d like to
adapt. If it’s the entire document, hold the
Ctrl key down + A to select all of your
document.

to the website that has the image you’d like
to use.
Then click on “Insert” to add the image to your
Word doc.
18. Inserting objects
Pictures
Once you’ve inserted your image, you can
use the Picture Format ribbon to adjust
its appearance.
You can crop it, as shown, using the marks
at the edges of the image to change
the appearance of the image, or add
artistic effects, like different colorations.
You can also use the features in the
Arrange group to adjust its position or alignment, or to change how text will
react to its placement, with the “Wrap Text” button.
19. Inserting objects
Tables
To insert a smaller table, highlight the number
of rows and columns in the grid that pops
down when you click on “Table” in the Insert
ribbon.
As you highlight the squares in the grid, it will

will have, like 3x2 (3 columns, 2 rows) or
4x6 (4 columns, 6 rows).
When the numbers shown reflect the size of the
table you’d like to insert, click on the lowest highlighted box on the right to insert
the table.
To insert a larger or custom table, click on “Table,” and then “Insert Table” to
specify the parameters of your table.

there is a “Table Styles” group under “Table
Design” where you can click on the arrow on
the bottom of the feature box, and this will
bring up a variety of formatting options, including
colors, bands that highlight the titles of your columns
and rows, different borders, and more.

has lots of tools to use when creating
academic papers and publications.
You can even set your editorial style
to make sure that all citations are
written in the correct format — and
which will help you edit them all at
once should that format change, say,
from APA to MLA for a different editor.
23. Inserting citations
When building your paper or publication, place
your cursor where you would like to cite a
source, click on “Insert Citation” and “Add New
Source.”
The feature box at the below right will appear,
allowing you to select the type of resource you
are quoting, and to enter the appropriate
information for that type of resource. Click
“OK” when finished to insert the citation.
If you don’t have the full publication entry at
hand, choose “Add New Placeholder” to add a
tag with the author’s name or a word that will
help you remember to add the full information
later.
24. Managing references
You can also add sources through the
“Manage Sources” button.
The Source Manager box will have your full
list of references. You can edit resources in
this box, or click on “Add New” to enter
more resources rather than while you are
writing/ editing.
Tips:
When entering publications, tick the box for
“Show All Bibliography Fields” to make sure
you see options for URL and DOI entries.
Use the “Edit” box for Author to make sure
first, middle, and last names are entered
correctly.
25. Creating a bibliography
If you have used the Source Manager to build
your reference list within Word, creating your
bibliography (or, in APA style, your list of
References), will be easy.
Clicking on “Bibliography” will show you a list of
options (that do not reflect your entered
resources).
You can either click on the option you will be
using, like “Bibliography” or “References,” or
click on “Insert Bibliography” at the bottom of
the pop-up menu. Either way, Word will insert
your full bibliography from the sources you have
entered.
26. Creating a PDF
from a Word doc
Your publication is complete.
Congratulations!
To create a PDF to share with others,
click on the “File” ribbon and select

68. There’s a
Formula for
That
One of the greatest features of Excel is
the array of formulas available. We’ve
included five commonly used ones, but
there are many more.
Be sure to check out the link to Microsoft’s
overview of Excel formulas at the end of
this presentation for additional formulas.
69. Overview
Formulas
A formula is an expression that tells Excel how to
calculate a value within a cell.
To create a formula, begin by typing “=” in a cell
or in the formula bar at the top of the screen,
underneath the ribbon. Then, enter commands to
determine how Excel should calculate the value of the
cell.
Example: find the sum of the values in cells A1, A2, and A3.
Formulas often require a reference to other cells in the
sheet. In this case, we are referencing cells A1:A3.
Highlighting a cell will cause any formulas in the cell to
appear in the formula bar at the top of the screen.
70. Add Numbers Together
=SUM([value 1],[value 2],…)
The SUM formula combines values from different
cells together.
In an empty cell, begin by typing “=SUM(”
Next, select the cells you’d like to reference. You can
do this by clicking on the cells (make sure to hold down
Shift or Ctrl if you’d like to select multiple cells!) or
by typing the cell name (the column followed by
row number).
You can include numbers instead of or in addition to
cell ranges.
Press Enter to submit the formula.
You can see in the formula bar that in cell A4
we are combining cells A1-A3, then adding 4
for a total of 10.
71. Combine Phrases
=CONCATENATE([value]…)
The Concatenate formula combines
multiple strings of text together.
In an empty cell, begin by typing
“=Concatenate(”
Next, select the cell you’d like to
reference.
Then, input the text string you’d
like to add. You can append the
text from another cell by selecting
that cell, or enter your own text in
quotation marks like in the
example.
Press Enter to submit the formula.
You can copy/paste the formula to
easily append text to multiple cells.
72. Count A Specific Value
=COUNTIF([where to look],[what to find])
Use this formula when you need to find how
many times a specific value appears in a set of
data.
In an empty cell, begin by typing “=COUNTIF(”
Select the range of cells that you’d like to
search for a specific value, add a comma, and
then enter the value that you’d like to find.
Ex: How many times did we have a sale of
exactly $30?
Press Enter to submit the formula and display
how many times the value exists in the
selected range.
73. Respond Based On Value
=IFS([condition],[response if met],…)
This formula allows us to return different values based on the conditions of the cell we’re
referencing. In this example, we’re using the formula to translate number grades to letter
grades.
We’re telling Excel that if cell A2 has a value greater than or equal to 90, to return a value of
A. If that condition is not met, Excel will move to the next set of conditions in our formula. In
this case, it will check to see if cell A2 is greater than or equal to 80, and if so, it will return a
value of B. If those conditions aren’t met, we’ll go to the third set, and so on.
74. Respond Based On Value
=IFS([condition],[response if met],…)
By copying that same formula into cells B2, B3, B4, and B5, we’ve quickly and easily
translated number grades to letter grades.
76. Conditional
Formatting and
Color Scales
So you’ve got a lot of data, and it’s
difficult to see what’s important.
Conditional formatting lets Excel
automatically change the format of a
cell if its content meets certain
conditions.
Color scales create a gradient where
the color changes based on the value
in the cell.
See next slides for examples!
77. Conditional Formatting
Formatting
Let’s say you have a list of daily sales
numbers and you want to isolate all days
where sales were over $70.
First, highlight the cells you’d like to change.
Then, click “Conditional Formatting” on the
ribbon.
From the dropdown, select “Highlight Cells
Rules” and choose the rule that meets your
needs.
79. Color Scales
Formatting
Let’s say you have a list of daily sales
numbers and you want to easily identify
which sales days are high and which are low.
First, highlight the cells you’d like to change.
Then, click “Conditional Formatting” on the
ribbon.
From the dropdown menu, select “Color
Scales” and choose the scale that meets your
needs.
80. Color Scales
Formatting
In our example, high
numbers are good and low
numbers are bad.
Therefore, we’ve
selected a scale with
green for high numbers
and red for low ones.
However, there are other
scales with different
schemes.
This is a great way to
easily identify patterns in
your data!
Before After
81. Pivot Tables
Pivot tables can summarize, organize, and
group large amounts of data so that you
can view your numbers in a more
meaningful way.
82. What is a Pivot
Table?
So you’ve got a lot of data, and it’s
difficult to see what’s important.
What if you want to see average
grades by class, or the total number of
people who made A’s?
A pivot table allows you to sort,
combine, and summarize that data in
a more meaningful way.
See next slides for examples!
83. Pivot Tables
First, select the data you’d like
to include in your pivot table.
We’ve highlighted our table of
classes, number grades and
letter grades.
Navigate to the Insert tab at the
top of the ribbon.
Click the Pivot Table button on
the far right.
84. Pivot Tables
A menu will appear!
The Table/Range will match the
data that we’ve highlighted.
You can choose to have the pivot
table appear in a new worksheet
within the same file, or choose a
cell in an existing worksheet. In
this example, we’ll choose a
new worksheet.
Click OK.
85. Pivot Tables
A new worksheet has been created!
We now have a menu with our column headers on the right, which we can use
to build our pivot table.
86. Pivot Tables
Selecting different fields will cause their associated data to appear in the table.
They also appear in the menu on the lower right, where they can be rearranged
in order to reorganize the table.
87. Pivot Tables
Rearranging the fields allows you to look at the data in different ways. Here are some
examples:
Here we can easily see the number of A’s, B’s, C’s, and D’s in each class.
And here we can see the average score for each letter grade.
88. Pivot Tables
Let’s find the average number grade for each class.
To do this, we’ve selected the Class and Number Grade fields. Notice anything
strange?
89. Pivot Tables
The pivot table will default to
finding the sum or the count
(the number of instances
something appears) of the data.
However, there are many other
ways to combine these values.
We want to see the average of
the grades, not the sum of the
grades.
To fix this, we need to adjust
the settings.
90. Pivot Tables
Click on the field that you’d like
to adjust, which will open a
menu.
Select Value Field Settings.
This will open a second menu,
with a list of ways to summarize
the value field.
For our purposes, we want
Average. However, there are
many options you can choose
from when analyzing data.
91. Pivot Tables
Now we can clearly see the
average grade for each class.
The pivot table will also provide
an overall average in the Grand
Total row at the bottom.
92. Pivot Tables
In conclusion, pivot tables can help you take large amounts of data and summarize
it in a way that’s meaningful and easy to understand.
