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.

5. Introduction – Meaning of a project
‘Specifically Evolved Work Plan’ devised to achieve specific objective within
a specified period of time.
It is a scheme, design, a proposal of something intended to achieve.
Each project differs in size, nature, objective & complexity.
6. A project is a sequence of unique, complex and connected activities
having one goal or purpose and that must be completed by a specific
time, within budget, and according to specifications.
“Projects are the Building Blocks of an Investment Plan”
Introduction – Meaning of a project
8. Attributes/Characteristics
• Complex Activities Not simple / Repetitive acts
• Connected Activities Some order/sequence in which the activities are executed
• One Goal Projects must have a single goal as compared to a program
• Specified Time Projects have a specified completion date
• Within Budget Projects also have resource limits (people, money, machines)
9. Attributes/Characteristics
• According to Specification
• The customer or recipient of the deliverables from the project expects a
certain level of functionality and quality from the project.
10. Project Program
Project includes all activities to complete
a given job.
A program is defined as an ongoing
process or ongoing operation
indefinitely.
It has narrow scope and has shorter
duration
It has broader scope and has longer
duration
Project is a part of Program Main activity
Projects is individual activity.
A program is a group of projects
managed in a coordinated way to obtain
benefits.
Project vs Program
11. Project Parameters
Some common constraints that influence a project are:
1. Scope
2. Quality
3. Cost
4. Time
5. Resources
Project Parameters
The scope and quality of a project are influenced by a variety of constraints
like time, cost and availability of resources.
14. Quantifiable & Non-Quantifiable Projects
Classification of Projects
Projects for which a right quantitative assessment of benefits can be made are
termed as quantifiable projects
Ex: power generation, mineral, development, industrial development etc.,
Projects for which quantitative assessment cannot be made are termed as
non-quantifiable projects
Ex: health, education, Defence etc.,
15. Sectoral Projects
Classification of Projects

• Large Capital Investment, Labor intensive
Causation classification
• Demand/Raw material based
Magnitude-oriented classification
• Size based, Large, Medium, Small
18. Project selection process consist of Two main Steps:
Project Identification
Project Selection
Project Identification - Idea generation
Selection process starts with the generation of a product idea.
In order to select the most promising project, the entrepreneur needs to
generate a few ideas about the possible projects he/she can undertake.
Project identification is concerned with collection of economic data and
analyzing it.
Project Identification / Selection
19. Project Ideas - Ways or Sources: various internal and external sources
Knowledge of potential customer needs.
Watching emerging trends in demands for certain products.
Scope for producing substitute / alternative product.
Going though certain professional magazines.
Success stories of known entrepreneur or friend or relatives.
Making visit to trade fairs and exhibitions displaying new products and services.
Meeting with government Agencies.
Idea given by the knowledgeable person.
A new product introduced by the competitor.
Opportunity Scanning & Identification
21. Project selection starts from where project identification ends.
A tool generally used for this purpose is: SWOT/C analysis.
The intending entrepreneur analysis his /her strength and weakness,
opportunities /competitive advantages and threats / challenges offered by each
of the project ideas.
Finally project selected to converted into enterprise.
The process involved in selecting a project out of some projects - zeroing in
process.
Project Selection
24. Project Report
A project report or a business plan is a written statement of what an
entrepreneur proposes to take up.
Well evolved course of action devised to achieve the specified objectives
within a specified period of time.

30. Planning Commission Guidelines
In order to process investment proposals and arrive at investment decisions,
the planning Commission has issued guidelines for preparing/formulating
industrial projects.
1. General Information
Feasibility report should include an analysis of the industry to which the project belongs / past
performance / description of industry / role of Public sector / Allocation of investment funds.
31. Planning Commission Guidelines
2. Preliminary analysis of alternatives
• This should contain present data on the gap between demand and supply for the outputs
which are to be produced.
• Data on the capacity that would be available from projects that are in production or under
implementation at the time the report is prepared.
• A complete list of all existing plants in the industry, giving their capacity and their level of
production actually attained.
• A list of all projects for which letters of intent licenses have been issued and a list of proposed
projects.
32. Planning Commission Guidelines
3. Project Description
• The feasibility report should mention the technology/process chosen for the project.
• Information relevant to determining the optimality of the location chosen.
• To assist in the environmental effects of a project, every feasibility report must present the
information on specific points, i.e. population, water, land, air, flora, & fauna, effects arising
out of projects pollution, other environmental disruption etc.
33. Planning Commission Guidelines
4. Marketing Plan
It should contain the following items;
• Data on the marketing plan
• Demand & prospective supply in each of the areas to be served.
• Methods & the data used for main estimates of domestic supply.
• Selection of the market areas.
• Estimates of the degree of price sensitivity.
• It should contain an analysis of past trends in prices.
34. Planning Commission Guidelines
5. Capital Requirements & Costs
The estimates should be reasonably complete & properly estimated.
Information on all items of costs should be carefully collected & presented.
6. Operating Requirements & Costs
• Operating costs - incurred after the commencement of commercial production.
• Information about all items of operating costs should be collected.
• Operating costs relate to the costs of raw materials & intermediaries, fuel, utilities, labour, repair
& maintenance, selling expenses & other expenses.
35. Planning Commission Guidelines
7. Financial Analysis
• This strategy is to present some measures to assess the financial viability of the project.
• Foreign Exchange Requirements should be cleared by the Department of Economic Affairs.
• The feasibility report should take into account income tax rebates for priority industries,
incentives for backward areas, accelerated depreciation etc.
• The sensitivity analysis should also be presented – i.e. the sensitivity of the rate of return of
change in the level & pattern of product prices.
36. Planning Commission Guidelines
8. Economic Analysis
• Social profitability analysis needs some adjustment in the data relating the costs & returns to
the enterprise.
• One important type of adjustment involves a correction in input & costs, to reflect the true
value of foreign exchange, labour & capital.
• The enterprise should try to assess the impact of its operations on foreign trade.
• Indirect costs & benefits should be included in the report. If they cannot be quantified, they
should be analysed & their importance emphasized.
38. Network Analysis
Network analysis is the general name given to certain specific techniques which
can be used for the planning, management and control of projects.
• The network analysis methods are used in project management where the
elements are key activities of the project in the mutual time relation.
• The network analysis methods focus on calculating or critical path
optimizing between the elements.
40. Network Analysis
• The network analysis methods are related to the concept of network diagram,
which is a view of the project as a diagram which expresses various links
between the project activities.
• The network diagrams and network analysis methods are based on the Graph
Theory.
41. Network Analysis
CPM
Logical mathematical model of the project based upon the optimal duration
required for each activity and optimal use of available limited resources.
It is a deterministic model.
PERT
• Scheduling technique, It shows any job or project as a set of
processes/activities which must take place in a certain sequence.
• It is a probabilistic model and introduces uncertainties in project network.
GERT
• Networks representing research and development project the process is
repeated till the desired out come is achieved.
• GERT network only simulation can be used.
42. Network Analysis
Use of PERT
• The activities of the project are identified along with their interrelationships and graphically
represented.
• Time required for completing each activity/process is estimated.
• Minimum time required for completing the entire project is estimated.
• The critical activities are identified for the efficient allocation of resources in order to complete
the project at the earliest.
• Closer watch on critical and other activities so as to complete the project on time.
43. Network Analysis - CPM
The following table gives the activities and the time required to complete each activity of the project.
Example
44. Network Analysis - CPM
The following table gives the activities and the time required to complete each activity of the project.
Example
45. Network Analysis - CPM
The following table gives the activities and the time required to complete each activity of the project.
Example
• Since the path 1-2-5-6 consumes longest time (18 days).
• it is known as critical path and the activities 1-2, 2-5 and 5-6 are known as critical activities.
• Hence the project completion time is 18 days.
46. Network Analysis
Differences between PERT and CPM
PERT CPM
Event oriented approach Activity oriented approach
Allows uncertainty Does not allow uncertainty
Probabilistic model Deterministic model
Time based Cost based
48. COMMON MISTAKES BY ENTREPRENEURS IN PROJECT FORMULATION
• Selection of project area
• Market study and analysis
• Selection of technology
• Optimistic estimates
• Ownership form
• Selection of location
50. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Project feasibility analysis is carried out to ensure viability of project.
The project feasibility study is
• Market feasibility
• Technical feasibility
• Financial feasibility
• Economic feasibility
• Ecological feasibility
51. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Market Feasibility
• Demand for the proposed product/service.
• Market share of the project under consideration.
Market analysis requires variety of information and appropriate forecasting methods.
Consumption trends in the past and the present / Past and present supply
position / Production possibilities and constraints / Imports and exports /
Structure of competition / Cost structure / Consumer behaviour, intentions,
motivations, attitudes, preferences and requirements / Distribution channels /
Administrative, technical and legal constraints.
52. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Technical
Feasibility
Determine whether prerequisites for successful commissioning of the project have
been considered.
Technical analysis addresses the following;
• Has the availability of raw material, power, and other inputs been established?
• Is the selected scale of operation optimal?
• Is the production process chosen suitable?
• Are the equipment and machines chosen appropriate?
• Have the auxiliary equipment and supplementary engineering works been provided?
• Has provision been made for treatment of effluents?
• Is the proposed layout of the site, buildings and plant sound?
• Have work schedules been drawn up realistically?
• Is the technology proposed to be employed appropriate from the social point of view?
53. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Financial
Feasibility
To ascertain whether the propose project is financially viable.
The aspects to be looked into;
• Investment outlay and cost of project
• Means/modes of financing
• Project profitability
• Break-even point
• Cash flows of the project
• Investment worthiness judged in terms of various criteria of merit
• Project financial position
• Level of risk
54. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Economic/Social Cost-
benefit Analysis
Judging a project from the larger social point of view.
The aspects to be looked into;
• What are the direct economic benefits and costs of the project measured in terms of shadow
(efficiency) prices and not in terms of market prices?
• What would be the impact of the project on the distribution of income in the society?
• What would be the impact of the project on the level of savings and investment in the society?
• What would be the contribution of the project towards the fulfilment of certain like self-
sufficiency, employment and social order?
55. PROJECT FEASIBILITY STUDY
Ecological
Analysis
Environmental concerns should be addressed properly.
The aspects to be looked into;
• What is the likely damage caused by the project to the environment?
• What is the cost of restoration measures required to ensure that the damage to the
environment is contained within acceptable?
