Remembering the Titanic Ship A Tale of Tragedy and Resilience.pptxelizabethella096
In the record of marine background, few tales evoke as much fascination, misfortune, and intrigue as that of the RMS Titanic ship. The plain reference of its name raises a myriad of emotions, from awe at its luxury to grief for its devastating death. The Titanic ship background is a tapestry woven with the strings of aspiration, advancement, and inevitably, human fallibility. Let us embark on a voyage with time, mapping the exceptional narrative of this iconic vessel.

Introduction
RMS Titanic, the largest moving object of its time, began its maiden voyage
from Southampton, England, to New York City on Wednesday, April 10,
1912. On Sunday, April 14, the temperature of the Atlantic Ocean fell to
near freezing; the night was clear and calm. The ship's captain had received
various ice warnings from other vessels, some of which reached him while
others did not.
At 11:40 PM, while sailing about 400 miles south of the Grand Banks of
Newfoundland, lookouts spotted a large iceberg directly in the Titánicas path
The ship turned left to avoid the berg, but the massive chunk of ice openec
mortal holes on the vessel's starboard side. The captain ordered lifeboats
deployed and distress signals sent out.
Many of the lifeboats were launched at less than full capacity and a
woman-and-children-first policy was the rule for coming aboard. At 2:20 AM.

An Unsinkable Ship—Not Really
In 1912, the year it sank, the Titanic was known as the finest ship afloat. It
weighed over 46,000 tons, was as high as an 11-story building, and was
883-feet long from bow to stem (about a sixth of a mile). It had 29 boilers,
159 furnaces, and a maximum speed of 24 knots. The Titanic was consid-
ered so well constructed that many nautical experts thought the ship vir-
tually unsinkable.
The Titanic was reported to be watertight. It had a double bottom (the hull
was built with two coats of steel) and was divided into 16 watertight compart-
ments separated by bulkheads pierced by a series of doors that were controlled
either by automatic floating switches or by command from the bridge.
On the night of April 14, when the Titanic hit the iceberg, water begun
flooding into at least five of its "watertight compartments" that were any-
thing but watertight as the bulkhead walls did not rise appreciably .above
the waterline. Water coming over the bulkhead walls could cascade into
other compartments, which is what happened the night the Titanic went
under. (Th.

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.

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.

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”.
