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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

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.

Editor's Notes
BEREA HS STEM CAREER AWARENESS PROJECTThe Berea High School career awareness classes will be held on Thursdays on the dates listed below. Included with each date is the career focus for that day. All lesson plans will be provided as well as any needed supplies. We need you to share your professional experience and excitement to help students gain a better understanding of the career field and its expectations.April 07, 2016 — STEM in Manufacturing: Assembly Line BraceletsApril 21, 2016 — STEM in Health Science: Diet and NutritionMay 05, 2016 — STEM in Space: Building Robot ArmsMay 19, 2016 — STEM in Computer Programming/IT On each of the above dates, we will be meeting with three groups of approximately 20 students. The meeting times are listed below. You may choose to present during only one time slot or you may select several. 10:20 am – 11:45 am 12:50 pm – 2:15 pm 2:20 pm – 3:45 pm All classes will be held at Berea High School 201 Burdine Drive Greenville, SC 29617
STEAM TECH TEAMS:
STEAM Tech Teams will be manning three locations at the Greenville iMagine Tech Festival scheduled for 11-5:00 pm, Saturday, April 2, 2016. iMagine is an annual Technology festival which will cover approximately seven blocks of Main Street in downtown Greenville.
At the first location, we will be demonstrating 3D Printing and the Prosthetic Hands and other items printed on 3D printers. A short distance away, at the Zen (an indoor event venue), we will man 15 Quadcopter Flight Simulators for teaching guests to fly Quadcopters and we will allow guests to fly actual Quadcopters in a cage roughly 40 x 60 feet, and 30 feet high!
We need 18-30 volunteers to help us man these three locations. You do not have to know anything about Quadcopters or use of a Flight Simulator. We will teach you everything you need to know at a training session scheduled on March 24, 3:15-4:45 pm, in Room #105 at the Herring Center. If you cannot make that training session, we will schedule alternate times to train you.
This is a great opportunity to participate in and enjoy a very impressive Technology Festival. Furthermore, you will not learn to fly a Quadcopter, but you will come away with a lot of knowledge.
If you would like to participate, please send an email to Bob and Fay Choban at
