River civilizations first emerged around 3000 BC along major rivers like the Tigris and Euphrates in Mesopotamia, the Nile in Egypt, the Indus in India, and the Yangtze in China. The flooding of these rivers provided fertile land for agriculture, allowing large populations to live in urban societies ruled by powerful kings. Writing was developed around 5000 years ago in Mesopotamia to record taxes, trade, and other administrative information, and it later was used to write religious texts, laws, science, and stories. Early forms of writing included cuneiform script in Mesopotamia using wedge-shaped symbols pressed into clay tablets, and hieroglyphic script in Egypt

The Beginnings of Ancient Rome About 750 B.C., the villages joined together to form a city called Rome. It was ruled by kings for more than 200 years. Eventually, Rome became a republic, and the people elected representatives. These representatives formed the Senate, Rome's most powerful body of government

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.

The first civilization appeared during the 3rd
millenium B.C. from the first towns of the Metal
Age. They are known as River civilizations.

3. During the Metal Age some villages started having kings who became
very powerful and formed great empires and civilizations.
River civilizations started next to big
rivers such as: Tigris and Éuphates in
Mesopotamia, Nile river in Egypt, Indus
river in India and Yangtze river in China.
In these regions the flooding of the rivers
fertilised the land and produced abundant
harvest that provided enough food for large populations
living in towns.

4. CHARACTERISTICS OF RIVER CIVILIZATIONS:
•URBAN SOCIETIES, big towns with large populations
•GREAT POLITICAL POWER. The king led the army, made laws
and was the religious leader. He has some state officials to help
him
•SOCIAL HIERARCHY. There were 2social groups: a small
minority of privileged people (the king and his family,
noblemen, priests, state officials and some members of the
army) and a the rest of the people (peasants, craftsmen and
merchants who paid lots of taxes)
•LARGE-SCALE BUILDING WORKS: Irrigation canals that
carriers water from the rivers to the fields. And also temples,
palaces and tombs as a symbol of the king’s power.
•CULTURE, SCIENCE AND ART had a great development.

5. WRITING
WRITING = HISTORY
MESOPOTAMIA 5000 years ago. WHY?
In a growing city writing was an essential
method to remember important information
about taxes, trades and population.
Soon people started to write about other
issues such as religious books, codes about
laws, science books and story books.

Cuneiform writing.
Was developed in
Sumer. It was written
by making signs on a
clay tablet with a reed.
It was called cuneiform
because the patterns
looked as if they were
made by a wedge
(cuneus in latin)
7. WRITING. …….WHERE, WHEN, HOW?
•MESOPOTAMIA. Cuneiform writing. In a clay tablet. Straight and
round signs. 2.000 symbols.
•EGYPT. Hieroglyphic writing made on papyrus.(A plant that grows
near the river Nile). Hieroglyphic writing represented words and
sounds. There were 700 different signs.
•CHINA. Paper was invented by Chinese peopIe in 105 B. C.
Chinese writing use around 10.000 signs.
•The writing we used today was invented by the phoenicians in
1200 B.C. when they created an alphabet of 22 consonants. Later
on, greeks added the vowels.
