History : British History Timeline 10 Reasons Today’s Students NEED Technology in the Classroom Technology is everywhere, entwined in almost every part of our lives. It affects how we shop, socialize, connect, play, and most importantly learn. With their great and increasing presence in our lives it only makes sense to have mobile technology in the classroom. Yet there are some schools that are delaying this imminent future of using technology in the classroom as the valuable learning tool it is. Here is a list of ten reasons your school should implement technology in the classroom. 1) If used correctly, will help prepare students for their future careers, which will inevitably include the use of wireless technology. 2) Integrating technology into the classroom is definitely a great way to reach diversity in learning styles. 3) It gives students the chance to interact with their classmates more by encouraging collaboration. 4) Technology helps the teachers prepare students for the real world environment. 5) Integrating technology in education everyday helps students stay engaged.
The coins The ritual site at Hallaton in Leicestershire has produced 5,296 Iron Age and Roman coins. Most were locally-made inscribed Iron Age coins, issued in about AD 20/30-50. These numbers mean that almost 10 percent of all known surviving British Iron Age coins were found at Hallaton. The true significance of this find, however, stems from the fact that many of these coins were recovered by archaeologists, during excavation, which allows us to relate them to the other activities at the site. At least 14 coin hoards were buried in the entranceway of the enclosure ditch which dominated the site. Most of the Hallaton coins belong to a local style unique to an area covering the modern counties of Lincolnshire and Leicestershire. This has important consequences for our understanding of the societies of the North East Midlands in the late Iron Age.
Larry Ferlazzo (@Larryferlazzo) | Twitter Iron Age The Iron Age is the period of European history that dates from around 800 BC to the Roman Conquest when iron was first used instead of bronze to make tools and weapons. In the parts of Europe the Romans never conquered, the term Iron Age is used to cover the time period up to the medieval period. Iron Age people are sometimes referred to as Celts, but other groups are also known from Europe at this time such as Germans and Iberians. The people of Iron Age Europe were farmers. Some Iron Age people made highly decorated metal objects, which we call Early Celtic or La Tène art. The British Museum collection contains thousands of Iron Age objects.

EdTech Higher Ed (@EdTech_HigherEd) | Twitter Sumer Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Situation du Pays de Sumer Ayant été complètement oubliée après les débuts de notre ère, la civilisation de Sumer a été redécouverte durant la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle grâce aux fouilles de sites archéologiques du Sud mésopotamien, dont l'exploration s'est poursuivie par la suite, jusqu'à connaître un arrêt en raison des troubles politiques affectant l'Irak à partir des années 1990. En plus des redécouvertes architecturales et artistiques qui furent à plusieurs reprises remarquables, les fouilles ont permis la découverte de dizaines de milliers de tablettes inscrites en écriture cunéiforme, qui est la plus ancienne documentation écrite connue avec celle de l’Égypte antique. Sumer est donc l'une des plus anciennes civilisations historiques connues, ayant participé à la mise au point de ce système d'écriture durant les derniers siècles du IVe millénaire av. J.

iLearn Technology Sumerian Mythology: Introduction Sacred Texts Ancient Near East Index Previous Next p. 1 The study of Sumerian culture introduced by the present volume, Sumerian Mythology, is to be based largely on Sumerian literary sources; it will consist of the formulation of the spiritual and religious concepts of the Sumerians, together with the reconstructed text and translation of the Sumerian literary compositions in which these concepts are revealed. It is therefore very essential that the reader have a clear picture of the nature of our source material, which consists primarily of some three thousand tablets and fragments inscribed in the Sumerian language and dated approximately 1750 B. The decipherment of Sumerian differed from that of Accadian 3 and Egyptian in one significant detail, a detail p. 2 which proved to be one of the factors in hampering the progress of Sumerology to no inconsiderable extent. p. 3 p. 4 [paragraph continues] Layard was uncovering at Nineveh a large number of inscribed clay tablets. p. 5 p. 6 p. 7 p. 8

Sumérien Le sumérien (en sumérien « 𒅴𒂠 » ; translittération : EME.ĜIR15) est une langue morte qui était parlée dans l'Antiquité en Basse Mésopotamie. Elle est ainsi la langue parlée à Sumer aux IVe et IIIe millénaires av. J.-C. Le sumérien semble être la plus ancienne langue écrite connue, sous une forme d'écriture appelée le cunéiforme, voire la plus ancienne langue connue[5]. L'akkadien a progressivement remplacé le sumérien comme langue parlée autour du XXe siècle av. Terminologie[modifier | modifier le code] Redécouverte[modifier | modifier le code] La redécouverte de la langue sumérienne se produit dans le contexte de la traduction des inscriptions cunéiformes à partir de la première moitié du XIXe siècle. Il est rapidement établi qu'il s'agit d'une langue agglutinante, ce qui fait qu'on la range d'abord dans la catégorie des langues « touraniennes » ou « scythiques », celles qui sont caractérisées de nos jours comme « ouralo-altaïques ».
