Whenever I read or hear the words Hadrian, Roman or the wall, I will remember with much fondness Dr. Ian Haynes and colleagues, Newcastle University and many of my co-learners' comments. Thank you.

In short, I have come a long way with your guidance and expertise. I express my gratitude to the Team and my co-learners. All the best,

A very complex situation, particularly with tourism. In the past few years, whenever I visited a World Heritage Site, I observed and admired it from afar, and hoped that I could retain positivity while witnessing the careless tourist behaviour.

The future is digital and virtual. For example, the collection of Clayton could become alive and the items could move; through VR/AR it could be 1) incorporated into exhibitions worldwide or 2) presented as stand alone lesson plan for learning.

The first thought that came to mind was whether the feedback from students at the University was solicited.

Thank you! the video also served as a recall of some of the wonderful units of this course.

Greece and Elgin!

I, for my part, am grateful.

We have come a long way, have we not?

Thank you for the concise history -- it helped me relive a few years of my delving into post Roman Britain.
-
sara monajem made a comment
Truly awsome! Thank you.

The assumption here is that not all Roman soldiers were forced to return to Rome or to needed battle grounds.
-
With humility and respect, dear David Thomas, I am asking you to examine the difference between the following sentence which you wrote: "I magine that some of them would of married women..." (2nd line, 3rd paragraph) and this one "I imagine that some of them would have married women..." that is: the different between "would of" and "would have". Cheers,

Thank you for the reference. This pattern of re-using Roman architecture as a totality or partially, in particular by Christiansp was not limited to the Hadrian's wall, was it?
-
@GloriaH I agree totally about the content and quality of what we are being taught. Thank you.
-
sara monajem made a comment
Thank you for engaging us to the extent of sharing the background and all the efforts for justifying your method. I am looking forward to learning that more history classes are being taught less passively. Cheers,
-
sara monajem made a comment
Such a great idea! A big hurrah for problem-based teaching methods. What we remember is mostly from active engaged learning.
-
@MorvenGribbin the colors were limited I suppose because they used vegetable dyes.
-
sara monajem made a comment
Well done! I felt the drama and felt worried for all of them!
-
I wonder what the concerns of the husbands of political women would be!
-
sara monajem made a comment
Feeling good that help is on the way, hopeful that the inspection turns out favourably. Thank you for the enactment, I enjoyed watching the video clip, good luck to the students.

sara monajem replied to David Vaughan
The decision of Diocletian to divide the Roman Empire is probably one of the evidences that the terrotory was too large to be managed singlehandedly.
-
@KatrinaPlumb The "era" that saw the birth of the NHS predominantly dealt with infectious diseases. Our era is dealing with conditions related to chronic diseases and geriatrics. These conditions call not for "cure" but management -- thus pharmacy. "Humanitarian aims" of the NHS must be translated into a policy that decouples 21st century capitalism from...
-
Great video clip, wonder how long ago was filmed.
-
sara monajem replied to Gloria H
making us so much less curious in spiritual quests
-
sara monajem replied to Alison Henry
@AlisonHenry ... and for which we are thankful.
-
@DouglasMcDonell let us give Constantine some credit also for genuine intellectual interest
-
Faith and fate by forse!
-
Obviously, if there was a way for innovative firms, start-ups for example, to be willing to work closely with clinicians, putting financial success and Nobel Prize aside.
-
Do you mean people in charge?
-
"Mindset" seems to be the key word; we are witnessing it today with the UK and US governments with the recent health crisis.
-
Is lack of adequate funding one reason slowness in digital transformation at the NHS?
-
I do I agree -- the future will be more digital.
-
sara monajem made a comment
I did manage to transliterate the texts, except for the singular letters. Also managed to read all my co-learners' comments. Have nothing to add but to thank you, Professor Haynes. Your interest and enthusiasm, particularly in generously sharing your knowledge, is obvious and much appreciated.
-
sara monajem replied to Chris Tack
I think it is a wishful thinking. This result may also suggest that the question may not have been a valid one.
-
I am also disappointed with the question. The point you made is very valid. We just need to assure that AI remains at the service/command of the clinician.
-
sara monajem replied to Helen Hills
The insurance companies may be one source to be concerned about - capable of tipping the balance between "replacement" and "colleague."
-
Your comments reads like a Haiku!
-
@IoannisArgyridis It is not all negative,
-
@IsabelBachmann Professor Haynes could also be invited to join.
-
@AlisonHenry I also would add studying the records of past excavations. The text mentiones "disturbed" founds.
-
Thank you for taking the time to write and explain this. I TRULY appreciate it. A god equivalent to that of the Mithras in Armenian! A kernel of knowledge I will cherish and strive to learn more. Cheers,
-
Like mentioning cancer once or twice!
-
Reading the transcript could help a lot.

@KathLane Hands-on Kathryn, the perfect way to learn! Good luck and enjoy.

I am worried that if the health care force does not adjust their attitudes toward AI and relevant technologies, the NHS will be more fragmented by DISRUPTERS, who hold none of the concerns that the health care personnel hold dear. Thank you for this unit. I learned and I hope to read some of the bibliographic link offered by the mentors and co-learners.

Yes, I would have chosen one more option, had it been possible. Infrastructure and access to ML colleagues would not be mutually exclusive.

sara monajem replied to Sula O'Duffy
It is truly advisable to leave the "catch-22" mentality...
-
sara monajem replied to Brendan Dunphy
Capital expenditure, accrued through saving, used to be one of the fundamentals of "genuine" capitalism.
-
If I am not mistaken, the "team" is formed to work on ONE SPECIAL goal -- in the case of the video, the goal was STOPFRAC.
-
The pyramidal shape of power, with the physician or surgeon at the top, in hospitals has been hard to crack.
-
Task Force or Commissions would form in other disciplines for similar purposes, wouldn't it?
-
Maybe not "more" staff, but a diversified, delegated team.
-
The Nobel Prize winners have mostly been individuals. It is worth the efforts to discourage competitiveness in Natual Sciences research.
-
The "shared goal", if I am not mistaken, was to stop bone fractions among osteoporotic patients.
-
sara monajem replied to Win R
@WinR Too bad that the Agnostics (non believers) and Deists outnumber those who advocate polytheism.
-
Or building the shrine of their well-known god of military success/ safety and his consort in the West to worship.

The Hellenistic Istanbul becoming Roman/Byzantine Constantinople

"hammer and sickle"?

This well-known god of military success and safety was worshipped in the East and carried to the West along with his consort by his devoted soldiers.

Jupiter Dolichenus, god of a Roman mystery cult, Hittite-Hurrian god of fertility and thunder worshiped at Doliche (modern Dülük), in SE Turkey. Under Achaemenid rule (6th–4th century BC), identified with the Persian god Ahura Mazdā, thus becoming a god of the universe. As Zeus Oromasdes (Greek influenced) closely associated with the cult of Mithra, another...

The only new one that I can add to the 60 comments I read and replied to is that perhaps conflicts originated when the word "heaven" began to be used instead of VSLM.
-
Thank you. I knew it is an Armenian last name but the first name, pronounced MAHER, maybe?
-
sara monajem replied to Win R
Jesus was more of a threat to the Jews, than the Romans. The Protectorate residing his trial "washed his hands..."
-
Wonder how much of the Christian rites and rituals were borrowed fron the Imperial Cult (a little more monotheistic).
-
Hindus practice it -- the shrines of Ganesha and Hanuman are at every street corner, increasingly elaborated as business around them prosper.
-
Wonder what term was used before it was called "mystery"
-
two comments - Christians managed to 1) define one Jew as deity, make sure the Cult of Mary is crushed.

including the "contracts" -

sara monajem replied to Barrie Crick
If I am not mistaken, it was mainly with montheism that the idea of our-god-is-better-than-yours, started leading to shameful massacres and blood letting of religious wars.
-
sara monajem replied to Douglas McDonell
But philosophy and mathmatics were much more advanced.
-
sara monajem replied to Heather Ford
@MargaretDerrick Or may be this way they could accept Jesus within a monotheistic religious system unlike theirs.

The Hindu god Shiva is the destroyer/creator.

@LesleyTahtakılııç Greek and Russian Orthodox iconostasis stops entering the altar.
-
sara monajem replied to Martin Plunkett
@MartinPlunkett perhaps because we hear/have heard mostly of those made by Roman emperors.
-
sara monajem replied to Barton Levitt
wouldn't you think that every community of peoples will have own sculptor, philosopher, artist, smith...?
-
sara monajem made a comment
Ah, cannot wait! As a latecomer to the course, I regret that my limited time will not allow me to read all the interesting comments -- I could read and respond to those on page 1 only.
-
I enjoy reading your name!
-
@MartinPlunkett So grateful that it was not melted so that we could admire all that it is/offers, even virtually.
-
knowledge and craftsmanship that goes far back (time and place) to China and/or beyond

sara monajem made a comment
Thank you for offering this course as a MOOC. The course is so well planned that the wall and life around it are as alive. Well done, congratulations!
-
I share the congratulations to and appreciation of efforts of the Team!
-
The "depth and breadth" was borne of the exchange of the host (indigenous) and the guest (soldiers tradesmen and slaves).
-
@BernardGibbon Glad to become aware of it, nevertheless.
-
sara monajem made a comment
I also appreciate CITIZEN SCIENCE. Hope they could become more widespread.
-
sara monajem replied to Peter Gorman
So, the academics won?
-
sara monajem made a comment
Lets move QUICKLY, no so ever slowly, away from competition into cooperation. Allocate the rewards of patent and Nobel prize to basic research.
-
It appears that appropriate branches in governments are at best reactionary and not that much prepared to have a leveled dialogue with interested bodies. Google Health is a case in point.
-
In the US, there is a list of them depending upon a classification that urgently needs updating. Particularly, I would worry when the oversight, as the result of budget constraints, are given to the generating body. The case of Boeing is the most recent example that I am familiar with. I am sure that there are also cases in health.
-
I wish we could be using these citizen juries for other decision making, marticularly local political contexts.
-
Of course the key word here is "understandable". I wonder how many of us understand the policy/agreement presented to us, especially in a complicated health intervention and in the "lawyer" language.
-
sara monajem made a comment
How would I (woman in the street) have known about these initiatives, had I not have taken this course. Thank you for offering this course as MOOC.
-
Asking a patient to read and sign a consent before an intervention pays only "lip service" to freedom of choice and getting informed.
-
The key word is "starting now" which is already too late.
-
sara monajem made a comment
Ah! the power of beautiful words. I wonder how competent those presently in power are!

Thank you Dr. Trudi Buck, I enjoyed doing the quiz and learned a lot. All the best,

Difficult indeed, particularly because the deceased was cremated.
