Greek Mythology
In the whole of Western culture, the most fertile and rich collection of stories is found in Greek mythology. This is if the Bible is excluded. These stories are diverse; however, they try to share a similar outlook on life (Slater, 2014). The Greeks believed in living life to the fullest since they cherished it. Death was a fact that was inevitable to them. There were small groups that believed in the idea of resurrection, such as mystery cults. It was dismal to homer death. Life in its way was glorious, thrilling, and dangerous in certain ways. Perishing of an ordinary person was believed to be accompanied by that of the mightiest heroes and the great royal dynasties. However, this idea of death did not make the Greeks be sad because it contained the Babylonian scribes that were written of Gilgamesh. The response of Greeks was enthusiasm. According to them, the only answer to death was to make carve of the legend that is imperishable by magnificent deeds. Throughout the five centuries, that is, from Homer to Alexander the Great, the Greets directed much of their effort and attention on pursuing fame. The astonishing energy was used to pursue fame. They were a unique race since they were imaginative, hard-living, ambitious, restless, and tough. They were very touchy about their honor due to the lust for their reputation. Most of them were vengeful and feisty. All of these traits in abundance are very clear in their stories.
The Greek qualities are mirrored faithfully in the Olympian Gods. Some of these qualities are fornicating, banqueting, unforgiving deities who liked warring, and quarrelsome. They were shown in the form of humans with powerful and beautiful bodies. They were very pleasing to the eye and also humanly intelligible. These people had a strong admiration for intelligence, beauty, and strength. The man was the measure of all things according to them (Dowden, 2014).
There are a few mythologies that have managed to produce a similar wealth of heroes. This was because the Greeks had a very strong urge for fame. Their heroes had desirable characters. They were fighters and adventurers. They were also bold, clever, strong, fierce, and experienced. The accomplishments of these heroes were far beyond that of ordinary humans. Irrespective of being perfect, there were some failings. Some of them were ruined by the failings. Some of these failings are cruelty (that emerged from their success), over-ambitious, overweening pride, and rashness among others. Ambition was very intense in the Greek heroes. There those who aspired godlike powers. All these were a model of human excellence because they gave the youths in the society standards to imitate.
This same ambivalence is evident in the legend of the tragic dynasty. .

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.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. About the Iliad
The Iliad is an epic poem in dactylic
hexameters, traditionally attributed to
Homer. It was set in the Trojan War where it
tells the story of how the battle between
Agamemnon and Achilles started. “Iliad”
means “the story of Ilion.”
3. Agamemnon
He is the King of Mycenae and leader of the
Greeks. Agamemnon is the son of King
Atreus of Mycenae. He is also the brother of
Menelaus and the husband of Clytemnestra.
Agamemnon was the commander of the
Achaeans in the ensuing Trojan War.
4. Zeus
Zeus is the “Father of God and men.” He
was the god of sky and thunder in Greek
Mythology. Zeus was the child of Cronus
and Rhea, and the youngest of his siblings.
In most traditions, he was married to Hera,
although, at the oracle of Dodona, his consort
was Dione. He is the father of Aphrodite .
5. Apollo
Apollo is one of the most important and
diverse of the Olympian deities. He is the god
of light and the sun, truth and prophecy,
medicine, healing and plague. Apollo is the
son of Zeus and Leto and has a twin sister
name Artemis.
6. Poseidon
Poseidon is the son of Kronos, brother of
Zeus and lord of the sea. He was seen as
creating new islands and offering calm seas.
Whenever Poseidon was offended or ignored,
he struck the ground with his trident and
caused chaotic springs, earthquakes,
drownings, and shipwrecks. He also caused
disturbance.
7. Aphrodite
Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of love,
beauty, and sexuality. Her Roman
equivalent is the goddess Venus. Aphrodite
was born when Cronus cut off Uranus’
genitals and threw them into the sea and
from the sea foam (aphros) arose Aphrodite.
She also promised Paris the most beautiful
woman in the world--- Helen.
8. Achilles
In Greek mythology, Achilles was a Greek
hero of the Trojan War, the central character
and the greatest warrior of Homer’s Iliad. It
stated that Achilles was invulnerable in all
of his body except for his heel. The term
“Achilles heel” has come to mean a person’s
principal weakness.
9. Hector
In Greek mythology, Hector is a Trojan
prince and the greatest fighter of Troy in the
Trojan War. Hector did not approve of war
between the Greeks and the Trojans. Hector
commanded the Trojan army, with a number
of subordinates.
10. Athena
Athena is the goddess of war, civilization,
wisdom, strength, strategy, craft, justice,
and skill in Greek mythology. Athena is the
virgin patron of Athens. Athena is also a
shrewd companion of heroes and the goddess
of heroic endeavour.
11. Helen
Helen was the daughter of Zeus and Leda. Her
abduction by Paris is the way the Trojan War came
up. Her name first appeared in poems by Homer.
The marriage of Helen and Menelaus marked the
beginning of the end of the age of heroes. Helen
was presented as being born from an egg. She was
named the most beautiful woman in the world.
12. Menelaus
Menelaus was a legendary king of
Mycenaean . He was the son of Atreus and
Aerope, and brother of Agamemnon king of
Mycenae and leader of the Greek army
during the war.
