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”.

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.

1. WEB-ENHANCED LEARNING
Web-enhanced learning has been characterized as learning that manipulates
internet technology to create student-centered learning environments (Mills,
2006)
Oliver, Omari, Herrington and Herrington (2000) have organized web-enhanced
learning into four categories.
4 CATEGORIES OF WEB-ENHANCED LEARNING
1. Information Access
2. Networked Instruction - refers to using the Web to engage students in learning
content
3. Interactive learning - relates to using the Web to communicate and collaborate
with students and teachers, while materials development is associated with
developing and sharing work .
4. Materials Development
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF WEB-ENHANCED LEARNING
Key advantages include:
Improved open access to education, including access to full degree programs.
Better integration for non-full-time students, particularly in continuing education.
Improved interactions between students and instructors.
Provision of tools to enable students to independently solve problems.
Acquisition of technological skills through practice with tools and computers.
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF WEB-ENHANCED LEARNING
No age-based restrictions on difficulty level, i.e. students can go at their own
pace.
Is cost effective.
Helps students to develop self-discipline.
Key disadvantages that have been found to make learning less effective than traditional
class room settings, include:
2. Ease of cheating,
Bias towards tech-savvy students over non-technical students.
Asynchronic communication hinders fast exchange of question.
Danger of procrastination.
Unforeseen technical difficulties may impede learning.
WEB BASED INSTRUCTION
Web-based instruction is different than web-enhanced learning.
Web-based instruction is also referred to as online instruction, Web-based
training, or e-learning.
This type of instruction provides instruction to students through the Internet
(Rosenberg, 2001).
Web-based instruction, also known as online courses, can be delivered using a
variety of course management software, such as Blackboard.
WEB 2.0
Web 2.0 is a term that described the “second generation” of the internet –in
which online users are actively participating in websites rather than just passively
reading or watching content.
Web 2.0 is built upon user-generated content.
Web 2.0 tools are those tools that help users become active participants,
allowing creating, collaborating, editing and sharing of content. It includes:
1. social networks
2. blogs
3. Wikis
4. Forums
5. video tools
6. photo-sharing tools
3. ePals
ePals is an education technology company and the leading provider of safe
social learning networks (SLN). Since 1996, ePals has focused on technology for
K-12 learning, offering school administrators, teachers, students and parents
worldwide a safe and secure platform for building educational communities,
providing quality digital content and facilitating collaboration for effective 21st-century
learning.
ePals is an online educational community, where learners all around the world
connect and collaborate on projects that often focus on issues of global
awareness and culture.
With the use of Web 2.0 technologies, students learn digital skills which are
essential in today’s academic and business world. In the process, many students
and teachers alike build around-the-world friendships that last a lifetime.
ePals include online collaboration tools that allow people from different locations
to interact and collaborate with one another, online, on the same project. It
includes monitored email (SchoolMail) blogs, forums, media galleries, and wikis.
ONLINE COLLABORATION TOOLS
A. BLOG
- A blog (short for weblog) is, in simple terms, an online journal
- Blogs often express a point of view, or a common theme.
- Blog posts can contain text, video, photos and links to external websites.
- In a classroom setting, a blog becomes an ongoing record of learning.
Here are some ideas you might like to use for a classroom blog:
Keep an ongoing record of what’s happening in the project. Post text, photos,
and video. Share experiments, student writing, and other project work. Reflect on
the classroom’s activity and the students’ learning and invite students to offer
their comments as well. At the end of the project it will serve as a digital portfolio.
Keep students informed by using your blog to share your lesson plans and
reflections for the week. Students can post questions and comments, making the
planning process interactive and collaborative.
4. Use your blog as your homework or extended learning center. Post a series of
videos, links to age-appropriate activities, podcasts, and resources that you want
students to review at home or when their work is done. Ask students to make a
thoughtful comment to the blog following the task.
B. Forum
- It is used to create an online conversation, allowing each group member to post
comments to a discussion thread.
- This communication tool allows individuals to collaborate with others by posting
or answering questions.
- It also gives members time to think before responding, often resulting in more
thoughtful responses.
Here are some ideas for forums use within a classroom or project:
Post questions to evaluate students’ understanding of topics before, during and
after a unit of study.
Post surveys to gauge student interest and to help determine the direction of a
project.
Follow student-created threads of conversation to see where their interests in a
project are leading, helping you determine the next steps when lesson planning
and resource gathering.
Post questions related to a topic of study to the forum and request that students
answer them. You can formally or informally evaluate student answers.
Use the forums in a project workspace for students to get to know their ePals.
This is particularly useful at the beginning of a project, when real-time interaction
is not possible due to time zone issues or computer lab time issues. Post getting-to-
know you questions and polls.
C. Wiki
- It is a place where students work collaboratively with other students, adding and
editing subject-related content.
- Wikis are created by a collaborative effort of the group members—they work
together to create and share multiple pages of work.
Here are some ideas you might like to use for a classroom wiki:
Use a wiki for in-depth exploration of a topic together, students and teacher.
Have students explore a topic, posting the information they find, editing and
learning from others’ information. Eventually you will have such a wealth of
5. information that the students can “leave their books at school” and access the
wiki from anywhere.
Use your wiki as a classroom organization tool. Post your assignments, rubrics,
collaborations, resources—links and images for more information on the topic of
study, etc. Make the wiki the center of your room with everything the student
needs to know in one place.
Use your wiki to write a collaborative book. Have students work together to write
a non-fiction book (See the World ABC Book Project or WikiJunior for
inspiration). Or, create an online Writer’s Workshop with revisions suggested by
peers.
Community is a common topic in Social Studies for the elementary age student.
Use your wiki to create a virtual tour of your community that includes local history
and landmarks, interviews with community members, information about your
school, photos, videos, and much more.
And a few more ideas: Create a wiki around the idea of a field trip or virtual field
trip. Use your wiki for book reviews and author studies. Create an encyclopedia
on a topic of interest. Create a careers wiki.
D. Media Gallery
- It is an area on a website that is a repository for digital files.
- Many types of digital files can be uploaded to a media gallery, including word
processing files, pictures, PowerPoint Presentations, Excel spreadsheets and
videos.
- Users can view the items, download them, comment upon them and rate them.
Here are some ideas you might like to use for a classroom media gallery:
Use your media gallery to house student work artifacts—items created by
students throughout the course of study or as a final project.
Use your media gallery to house materials that students can download to support
their learning—pdf handouts, instructional videos, etc.
E. Skype
- Skype is a free online collaborative tool that allows a user to call, instant
message or video conference with another user.
- Many classrooms are familiar with and incorporate this tool into their
collaborative projects to add a “face-to-face” element to their projects.
