This document discusses the writing process used to create television shows and other media. It describes the 5 key steps as pre-writing, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing. Pre-writing involves preparing ideas such as considering the role, audience, format and topic. Drafting is when the initial writing is done. Revising is re-reading drafts to improve them. Editing checks the work for spelling, grammar and mechanics. Publishing is the finalized work, free of errors. The writing process turns ideas into finished works.

These slides are from the Iris Speed Reading Classes & Memory Improvement Courses. Iris is the largest and leading provider of Speed Reading & Memory Improvement Courses in the United States. This course covers memory techniques, including how to remember a presentation without notes.
In this presentation, aimed at students in engineering, science and technology, I present some personal thoughts on what is expected in a technical report. Aimed particularly at students about to write their first lab report, it also contains useful information for students who need to write a dissertation or a software design document. It relects what I like to see in a report when I am marking it, but some of the principles are general I think. Within the constraints of the medium, I have also tried to present this it in much the same way that I would expect a report to be presented. Comments welcome.

My share in our company's Saturday talk series. This slide is so short but it can capture my ideas for having a happy life:
- Understand about the life, and define our balance point that we feel happy in standing on it.
- Have a right approach to achieve that point.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.

1. Are any of you familiar with
this show?
All Simpson images were taken from www.thesimpsons.com and #http://www.simpsoncrazy.com/gallery/simpsonspictures.shtml
3. How many of you are aware that
this television show starts off a
story written down on paper?
No
Really? Are
way!
you
Say it isn't nuts?
so!
4. YES – IT IS TRUE!
EVERY TV SHOW YOU
WATCH STARTED AS A
STORY WRITTEN ON PAPER!
(Or a word processor, of course!)
AND—GET THIS: EVERY WRITER OF EVERY STORY YOU READ OR
TV PROGRAM YOU WATCH OR MOVIE YOU GO TO OR EVEN EVERY
VIDEO GAME YOU PLAY USES A SPECIAL PROCESS WHEN THEY
ARE CREATING YOUR FAVORITE SHOWS, MOVIES OR GAMES.
IT'S CALLED:
THE WRITING PROCESS
5. So, what is The Writing Process?
Well, The Writing Process involves these 5 steps:

6. Step 1: PreWriting
● Prewriting is a warmup stage, where writers prepare to write
● To help prepare, used R.A.F.T.S:
R.A.F.T.S
– Role – Who am I? What is my role in writing this piece?
(reporter, detective, alien, yourself, family member, animal, etc.)
– Audience – Who am I writing this for? (Mom & Dad, teacher,
friend, sibling). What stance should I take (formal, informal)
– Format – Which format should I use? (Short story, poem, essay,
letter, report, speech, picture book, recount?)
– Topic – what is my topic? What do I need to say about it?
– Strong Verb (reason for writing) – what am I trying to do in this
piece of writing? Convince? Entertain? Request something?
Complain? Evaluate? Annoy?
7. Step 2: Drafting
● Drafting is when you actually put words on your paper.
● It involves risktaking! It's hard to get started sometimes!
● You need to concentrate and write in a quiet place.
● Don't worry about spelling or grammar – just get your ideas down.
● You might want to write on every other line, or only on one side of
the paper, to give yourself room to add notes or ideas later.
● Date or number each draft to show how they have changed and
improved from one draft to another.
8. Step 3: Revising
● Revising is taking the time to REREAD your original drafts – to
take a second look. Why? Because even professional writers revise
and make their work better – the writers of the Simpsons never take
their first draft and create the show – it would be AWFUL!
● You may want to add more information to your story, change the
order of your paragraphs, or choose some more descriptive,
exciting words. Put away the “wornout” words – words like big,
fun, great, nice, pretty, small, very – and try to find other words
that do a better job of describing what is happening in your story.
● While revising, ask yourself: Is this my best work? Is it boring?
Confusing? Does it make sense, or are their big gaps in my story?
9. Step 4: Editing
●
What is the difference between editing and revising? Well, editing
looks at the grammar and mechanics of a piece of writing.
●
You need to check your work for spelling errors, punctuation
problems, capitalization errors, grammar and sentence structure.
●
Sometimes it is good to let another set of eyes look at your paper, so
let a classmate or parent look it over as well. Just make sure that
YOU correct the errors, not your editor – they just need to point out
the problem.
●
Get in the habit of reading and re-reading your work over and over
again – you will always be find another way to make your work better.
10. Step 5: Publishing
● Yippee! Finally done! It's the best job I can do!
● Also known as a final draft, this piece of writing should be free of
spelling and grammatical errors. It should be perfect (or as close to
perfect as you can make it). How many times have you found a
mistakes in a book you read? Not very often!
● Celebrate! Share! Get other
people to read it!
11. One last thought . . .
● Every writer working on The Simpsons
was a kid who sat in a desk, just like you
are right now.
● They also struggled with writing, just like
you. But look where they are now!
● Follow in their footsteps, use The Writing
Process, and you too might be creating
your own TV show some day!
