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.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Democracy’s Victory and Crisis, Robert Putnam wrote about the
importance of civic engagement and said:
“In the field of education, for instance, researchers have discovered
that successful schools are distinguished not so much by the content
of their curriculum or the quality of their teachers, important as
those factors may be, as by the schools’ embeddedness in a broader
fabric of supportive families and communities”

• Adoption of high, common standards is vital to our economic
well being.
• Reaching our goals for youngsters—that they leave the K-12
system college and career ready -- depends on our ability to

through high-order skills;
• Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards;
• Informed by other top performing countries, so that all
students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and
society; and
• Evidence- and research-based.
25. College and Career Readiness (CCR)
Anchor Standards
• Broad expectations consistent across grades and content
areas.
• Based on evidence about college and workforce training
expectations.
• Both content and skills are important.
26. Outcomes in Mathematics
• Focus and coherence
• Focus on key topics at each grade level.
• Coherent progressions across grade levels.
• Balance of concepts and skills
• Content standards require both conceptual understanding and
procedural fluency.
• Mathematical practices
• Foster reasoning and sense-making in mathematics.
• College and career readiness
• Level is ambitious but achievable.
27. Outcomes in English Language Arts
• Ensure students are being prepared to read, write, and
research across the curriculum, including social
studies, science, technical subjects.
• Ensure that teachers in other disciplines are also
focusing on reading and writing to build knowledge
within their subject areas.
28. Outcomes in Integrated Literacy
• Recognizes that teachers in other discipline areas have a
role in literacy development
• Interdisciplinary approach to literacy based on research
establishing the need for college and career ready
students to be proficient in reading complex informational
text independently in a variety of content areas.
29. Outcomes in Integrated Literacy
• To be ready for college, workforce training and a
technological society, students need the ability to

32. Critical to know and understand:
These standards demand very high levels of
performance from all students, which in turn has
significant implications for teaching. Differentiated
instruction, integrated instruction, Understanding by
Design, and other strategies will need to become
commonplace in all classrooms. There is no excuse
for at-risk populations failing to achieve along with
the rest of the students in school.
