Ancient Egyptian art flourished between 1000 BCE to 100 AD, achieving high levels of development in painting, sculpture, and architecture. Much of what remains comes from tombs and monuments, emphasizing Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife. Art was highly symbolic and stylized, with symbolism representing the pharaoh's power, gods, and social status depicted through relative scale. Ancient Egyptians created varied art forms across media to preserve their present world and provide for the deceased in the afterlife.

1. The Paleolithic era marks the beginning of artistic representation. Early humans carved and modeled stone and clay relief sculpture, and made mural paintings deep within their cave shelters. Paleolithic artists also created portable full-round sculptures from bone and stone
Paleolithic images address the themes that affected human survival, such as fertility and animal populations. Faceless female figures, for example, display exaggerated breasts and genitals to emphasize their fecundity. The few Paleolithic male figures have animal heads, but their meaning has yet to be determined. Positive and negative handprints and other abstract signs also testify to the human presence. Most Paleolithic art, however, represents animals, although the exact meaning of these creatures is unknown.
Painted Paleolithic humans and animals are represented primarily in profile, but the artists’ approach is descriptive rather than strictly optical. In addition to revealing the artists’ familiarity with and observation of the animals, the images show all of the essential visual information required to identify the creatures. For example, most painters employed twisted perspective to join a profile head and frontal horns. The paintings exhibit no attempt to compose animals into groups or narratives, or to show them in a shared space or from a single viewpoint.
2 .The ancient near East consisted of five notable civilizations: the Sumerians, the Akkadians, the Babylonians, the Hittites, and the Persians. It's a well known fact that this, for lack of a better term, is where everything basically began. Writing, cities, organized religion and government, law, and even the wheel just to name a few of the Near East's achievements. It's difficult to argue the fact that this ancient civilization gave the world, and humanity, more then any other
Innovations to sculpture also arose greatly. Comparing prehistoric life and Near Eastern life again, humans were not the central focus in prehistoric art. But more often then not, humans were depicted in Near Eastern art. Remembering Venus of Willendorf, prehistoric art exposed the human body with exaggerated sexual organs and no shame in nudity. Near Eastern sculptures were more likely to portray clothed humans with great anatomical precision. On top of that, prehistoric people were travelers, nomadic groups unable to carry heavy, over sized objects with them. But as the people of the Near East civilized and settled into land, the larger and grander the sculpture, the greater the sign of permanence
Near Eastern art began a new tradition with painting as well. Representation of animals with human like body parts and emotions began emerging everywhere. The Sumerians began the tradition with the Lyre. It was continued by theEgyptian Sphinx and the Greek Minotaur

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.

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.

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.

Egyptian Art/Design
The civilization of Ancient Egypt in the lower Nile Valley from about 1000 BCE to 100 AD had produced
the painting, sculpture, architecture and other arts. Ancient Egyptian art reached a high level in painting
and sculpture and was both highly stylized and symbolic. Much of the surviving art comes from tombs
and monuments and thus there is an emphasis on life after death and the preservation of knowledge of
the past. Above all of royalty, portraiture in Ancient Egypt was highly
developed, and represented a complicated mixture of realistic depiction of
individuals and stylization.
Symbolism
Symbolism, ranging from the pharaoh’s regalia to the individual symbols of
Egyptian gods and goddesses, is omnipresent in Egyptian art. Animals were
usually also highly symbolic figures in Egyptian art. Colours were more
expressive rather than natural.
Hierachical scale of portraying
The size the people indicates their status in the social order. The king, or
pharaoh, is usually the largest figure depicted to symbolize the ruler’s
superhuman powers. Figures of high officials or tomb owner are usually
smaller, and in smallest scale are shown servants and entertainers, animals,
trees, and architectural details.
Art Forms
Ancient Egyptian art forms are characterized by regularity and detailed depiction of gods, human beings,
heroic battles, and nature, and a high proportion of surviving works were intended to provide solace and
utility to the deceased in the afterlife. Artists tempt to preserve everything from the present as clearly
and permanently as possible.
The arts were created using media ranging from papyrus drawings to pictographs and include funerary
sculpture carved in relief and in the round from sandstone, quartz diorite and granite.
An extraordinarily vivid representation of the Ancient Egyptian’s
socioeconomic status and belief systems was displayed through their arts.
Egyptian arts in all forms obeyed one law: the mode of representing Pharaohs,
gods, man, nature and the environment remained consistent for thousands of
years.
