How The Internet And Technology Have Improved EducationRita Lee
Technology is a powerful tool that can take education to a completely new level. Today students can show their preferences and interests to focus on as they have access to endless sources of information that can be useful for them. Of course, some new technologies and devices haven’t reached classrooms yet but their educational value has already been estimated and soon they will find their place in modern educational institutions.

Educational technology, sometimes shortened to EduTech or EdTech, is a wide field. Therefore, one can find many definitions, some of which are conflicting. Educational technology as an academic field can be considered either as a design science or as a collection of different research interests addressing fundamental issues of learning, teaching and social organization. This slideshow presentation contains the important information about the importance of technology in the field of education.
E-Learning Project Write Up Case Study Ogun State Institute Of Technologydamilola isaac
Over the last decade, researchers and practitioners have developed a wide range of knowledge related to electronic learning or e-learning. This movement has affected different elements and components; infrastructures, tools, content-oriented applications, human-computer interactions, pedagogical issues, methodologies and models, case studies and projects. This chapter briefly describes the overall idea of the development of e-learning system for OGITECH by using Apache, PHP and MySQL. This chapter includes objectives of the project, scope of work, problem statement and features of project before developed the own sites.
E-Learning has its historical background in about 30 years of development in computer based on the training and education. With the growth of the internet this kind of training became much more accepted and the creation of multimedia contents and systems to manage learning activities went on faster. Additional e-learning is based on a long tradition of teaching and learning experience. The larger worlds Information Technology and Education and Training influenced the new term e-learning and so e-learning became a subset of both of them.
Nowadays, e-learning refers to learning that is delivered or enabled via electronic technology. It encompasses learning delivered via a range of technologies such as the internet, television, videotape, and computer-based training. In principle, e-learning is a kind of distance learning. Learning materials can be accessed from the web or intranet via a computer and tutors and learners can communicate with each other using e-mail, chat or discussion forums.
Therefore, it can be used as the main method of delivery of training or as a combined approach with classroom-based training. It can be valuable when used as a part of well-planned and properly supported education and training environment, but e-learning is not a magic bullet that replaces existing pedagogical theories and approaches.
Nevertheless, it has almost everything that those theories need to get implemented.
Many learning and technology professionals believe that e-learning will have become state of the art when we will stop referring to it by a separate name and begin considering it as an integral part of a complete learning environment.

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.
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 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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

5. E-learning tools have been around for over a decade and there are still many school systems who cannot provide students with adequate learning technology. There have been improvements in the past years but schools still have a long way to go.
6.
7. Having the capability to distribute learning content and resources, organize lessons, assessments, discussions to meet each student’s individual needs, and track each students progress would give students the means to be extremely successful.
8. The impact of Web 2.0 tools has already been tremendous. People can very easily interact and collaborate instantly all over the globe, websites can be easily created and updated.
9.
10. Web 2.0 tools in education would be a great asset for teachers and students. Using a Web 2.0 tool such as Pageflakes would allow teachers to create a page full of “flakes” for their class.
12. These “flakes” could include just about anything, from news feeds, photos, videos, calculators, and much more. For every lesson the teacher could pick out and organize many relevant resources for the students to quickly click to access.
14. Schools should train students to create and operate within their own Personal Learning Environments. Personal Learning environments would enable students to take control of their learning by allowing them to set goals, organize learning materials, and communicate within minutes.
15.
16. It would be beneficial if students had a platform that enabled them to "demonstrate one's ability to collect, organize, interpret and reflect on documents and sources of information.”
17.
18. ELGG is a fairly new platform for open source social networking and publishing. ELGG is a great place to get started on making a Personal Learning community that has many features to keep you connected.
20. PLE’s would help teachers facilitate all styles of learning, freeing up time to work individually with student’s instead of having to be in the center of the classroom or spending time redirecting students attention.
21.
22. Classroom management issues would subside because students would be actively engaged in meaningful and purposeful assignments catered to them.
24. Students with the ability to personalize their own Personal Learning Environment would enable them to continue life long learning. PLE’s can be used as a tool for gaining real-world knowledge, inspiring students to be in control and to display the outcomes of their knowledge. Knowledge that transcends classroom material can be brought together in a students PLC.
26. Stephen Downes, a senior researcher with the National Research Council of Canada mentioned in his E-Learning 2.o article that, learning is incorporated in every facet of life, “from daily household chores to arts and culture. Learning and living, it could be said, will eventually merge. The challenge will not be in how to learn, but in how to use learning to create something more, to communicate. In the world of learning, what this means is having learning available no matter what you are doing.”
27.
28. Bringing together evidence of on going knowledge from home, school, and personal interests is something we would love for our children to be able to do.
29. The concept of the PLE marks a fundamental change in education. Now E-learning is blended with traditional education to provide students with access to many forms of information.
30. No longer is the teacher the main source of information for the students. Students now need to use all the information handed to them, reflect on it, applying it to real-life concepts and forming their own meaning out of it.
31.
32. Though the students that are sitting in the classrooms are a part of the “Digital Generation” many of them are not equipped with the skills need to create and control their own PLE. Since many schools and families are lagging behind in technology it would be a large task in itself to just teach how to operate computer software and applications.
33.
34. Furthermore, some students may not be able question and decipher facts from opinions when given resources. Offering students the chance to work in a PLE will provide teachers with opportunity to teach the skills necessary to learn computer applications and e-learning tools.
