Didactic method
A didactic method is a teaching method that follows a consistent educational style to present information to students.
The discipline of didactics is interested in both theoretical knowledge and practical activities related to teaching, learning and their conditions. It is concerned with the content of teaching (the "what"), the method of teaching (the "how") and the reasons of curricular choices (the "why"). It focuses on the individual learner and their cognitive functioning when they learn. It uses cognitive psychology and the theory of teaching, and sometimes social psychology.
In continental Europe, as opposed to English-speaking research cultures, pedagogy and didactics are distinct areas of study. Didactics is a knowledge-based discipline concerned with the descriptive and rational study of all teaching-related activities before, during and after the teaching of content in the classroom, which includes the "planning, control and regulation of the teaching context" and its objective is to analyze how teaching leads to learning. On the other hand, pedagogy is a practice-oriented discipline concerned with the normative study of the applied aspects of teaching in real teaching contexts inside the classroom.

WAGR V class
The WAGR V class were a total of 24 large steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1955 to 1972.
The V class were ordered in 1951 from Beyer, Peacock & Coy but due to limited production capabilities Beyer, Peacock & Coy were forced to contract Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn of Darlington, England to build them, though they still received Bayer, Peacock serial numbers.
The design was modern and utilised quite modern technology for the time. When the V class entered service to haul heavy coal traffic from Collie on the South Western mainline. The V class had a dependable and free-steaming reputation among crews and witnesses, they later saw further service on the Great Southern line from York to Albany.
Withdrawals began in 1971 and ended in 1972 with No. 1220 hauling the "Farewell to Steam special" from Brunswick Junction to Collie marking the official end of steam on the WAGR. Four of the V class are preserved, one formerly based at Pemberton hauled the last mainline freight in Western Australia by steam in 1992 and last industrial use by steam in 2005, it was since moved to the Hotham Valley Railway. One is on display at Collie Old Station Museum, another at ARHS Rail Heritage W.A. Bassendean Railway Museum, and the fourth is preserved at the Bellarine Peninsula Railway in Victoria.

WAGR W class
The WAGR W class were a total of 60 large steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1951 to 1972.
The W class were initially proposed by C.M.E. Frederick Mills in 1947, but his death in 1949 delayed the project. Beyer, Peacock & Coy of Manchester, England had already been advised of the design but identified multiple design flaws which they addressed in a meeting held in the UK in 1950.
Alterations included the firebox which was shaped to suit Collie coal which was notorious for its bad quality. Once they entered service, the W class could be found across the network on primary goods trains, though they did haul passengers as well, such as the "Australind" from Perth to Bunbury.
The reputation of the W class was good being depicted as strong and free-steamers with sound reliability. Minor teething problems and faults were attributed to poor welding resulting in no fewer than 34 W class laid up for repair at one point, though these issues had been eliminated by the late 1950s.
Withdrawals began in 1968 and ended in 1972 with the end of steam on the WAGR. 15 of the W class have been preserved with several in South Australia and one in the Northern Territory. They also make up the majority of the steam heritage operations on the Hotham Valley Railway in Dwellingup, Western Australia.
WAGR X class
The WAGR X class were a total of 48 diesel-electric locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1954 to 1988.
The X class were built by Beyer, Peacock & Coy of Manchester, England and Metropolitan-Vickers of Stockton-on-Tees, England from 1954 to 1956. Due to their light axle loads, they were immediately pressed into service around the entire network, they were allocated to express trains despite being designed for goods traffic. Their rigid frames made them rough riders, but because didn't require turning around they were still considered more efficient.
The engine used in the X class initially was untested and had various faults, issues and problems causing severe reliability concerns with resulting failures causing a Royal Commission into the matter which recommended the complete replacement of the X class. Midland Railway Workshops managed to continually repair, alter, and rebuild the X class to make them serviceable.
Some members of the class became the Xa class due to being fitted with twin/dual air (vacuum) braking. Withdrawals of the X class started in 1973, with the X class relegated to working grain trains on the South Western mainline in their dwindling years along with serving the Fremantle to Perth section of the Eastern Railway when it reopened. In 1988 the last of the X class was withdrawn.
One of the X class is preserved on display at the ARHS Rail Heritage W.A. Bassendean Railway Museum, and another five Xa class are also preserved.
WAGR Xa class
The WAGR Xa class were a total of 16 diesel-electric locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1955 to 1988.
The Xa class resulted from fitting dual air braking to the standard X class, this was done to allow them to operate salt trains on the Esperance branch, with braking systems manufactured by Davies & Metcalfe Ltd of Manchester, England. Two were converted to Xa to work with Queensland Rail SX class carriages hired by the WAGR for suburban services.
Five of the Xa class are preserved in various locations including the Hotham Valley Railway, Bassendean Railway Museum, and at Narrogin.
WAGR Xb class
The WAGR Xb class were a total of 10 diesel-electric locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1963 to 1986.
The Xb was the result of converting standard X class locomotives by fitting them with multiple unit control (MUC) like the Xa class. Said locos were not fitted with communication doors or renumbered. None of the XB survived into preservation with the last being withdrawn from active service and scrapped in 1986.
WAGR Y class
The WAGR Y class were a total of 18 diesel-electric locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways from 1953 to 1990.
The Y class were built by British Thomson-Houston (BTH) of Rugby, England in conjunction with the Clayton Equipment Coy (CEL) of Derbyshire, England who assembled and tested the locos before shipment at Hatton with separate builder's plates displayed for each business on every loco.
Mostly the Y class were used for shunting duties at Perth and Fremantle, but some did haul goods trains on the Northern Railway around Geraldton and Pinjarra on the Hotham Valley Railway.
In total 7 Y class have been preserved, with one at the South West Rail & Heritage Centre, Boyanup and the Bassendean Railway Museum. Another is stored at Boulder Railway Station in Kalgoorlie with 4 also displayed/stored after operating timber services at Pemberton, though their current disposition is unknown.

The Z class were ordered from the Drewry Car Coy who subcontracted the order to Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn Ltd (RSH) of Newcastle, England. Upon arrival in Western Australia, the Z class were allocated to shunt the jetties at Bunbury and Busselton along with other Southern ports.
In 1983 the Z class were all withdrawn, with all being preserved as No. 1151 went to Steamtown, Peterborough in South Australia, and No. 1153 went to the Boulder Loopline Railway where it is presently stored as the line is permanently closed.
No. 1152 is operational and being used on works trains on the Hotham Valley Railway and is the assigned shunter at Pinjarra; No. 1152 was also loaned to Downer EDI Works Ltd to aid in the construction of a rail depot at Nowergup, featured as part of the extension of the Northern Suburbs Railway.

Balkhash (city)
Balkhash (; ) is a city in the Qaraghandy Region of Kazakhstan, it is on the shore of Lake Balqash. It has a population of almost 78,000 people (as of 2023). Previously, the name of the city was Pribalkhashstroi ().
The city area also includes four settlements: Gulshat, Sayak, Saryshagan and Shashubai.
Copper was found the area in 1928. This led to the city being built. Small settlements for workers were built around the Balkhash mining and metallurgical plant.
On January 12, 1936, the first house with a large number of floors for living was built in the city. A significant part of the workers moved to comfortable apartments.
For the period from 1938 to 1941, the government invested 550 million Soviet rubles in the construction of the city, of which 122 millions were for the construction of houses for living. The city began to develop very fast.
In the 1940s, about 40,000 people lived in this city. There was a copper factory and the Kounrad mine, a meat processing plant, a bread factory, fishing companies, and a beer production plant. Much attention was paid to the development of agriculture and gardening. There were no universities, but there were 2 technical schools and 5 secondary and 10 primary schools. In total, about 2000 people studied there. There was a newspaper "Balkhash Worker" in two languages. Several bus routes were opened throughout the city.
On June 22, 1941, Nazi Germany invaded the territory of the USSR, this became the beginning of the Great Patriotic War.
During the Great Patriotic War (the Russian name for World War II), most of the men went to war and women replaced them at the copper factory. 11,532 people of Balkhash fought during the war.
A system of distributing goods by cards was introduced. There was a shortage of goods in the country. Residents of the city were given cards for bread, sugar and other goods. Workshop managers were required to work at full productivity and use the patriotic desires of the workers.
After the war, Japanese prisoners of war constructed the city. For example, they built the buildings of the Palace of Metallurgists and the airport.
In April 1987, the city was awarded the Order of Friendship of Peoples ().
The city is located on the northern coast of the Lake Balkash.
The city is located about 500 km west of the border with China and about 300 km south of Qaraghandy, the administrative center of the region.
70 kilometers north of Balkhash is the mountainous area of Bektau-Ata. The highest point is 1213 m above sea level.
The population was highest in 1989, when 100,533 people lived in the city.
People of more than 60 nationalities live in Balkhash. This is because when the city was built, people came here from all over the Soviet Union. Also in the 30-40s, some peoples who were repressed were brought here.
Nationalities including the population of city area settlements (as of the beginning of 2021):
Most of the city's people are Muslim Kazakhs. There is a central mosque in the city under the control of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Kazakhstan.
There is also a Russian Orthodox Church and a Catholic Church in the city.
In 2023, the city received 7.4 trillion tenge in taxes.
Balkhash is an important transit city linking Almaty and Astana, the country's two largest cities.
Balkhash is one of the most important centers of metallurgy in Kazakhstan. A large copper area, discovered in 1928-30, is being mined in villages north of the lake, such as Konyrat and Sayak. From there, copper is transported to the Balkhash plant.
In 1967, at the London International Exhibition, Balkhash copper was recognized as the world standard of copper.
Popular recreational activities on Lake Balkhash are beach tourism and water sports: sailing, kayaking and canoeing, and sport fishing.

WAGR E class
The WAGR E class were a total of 65 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1902 to 1963.
The E class were built by Nasmyth, Wilson & Coy of Salford, England and Vulcan Foundry of Newton-le-Willows, England for use on long-distance expresses. They were the first 4-6-2 locomotives in Australia, a further 20 were built in 1911 by the North British Locomotive Coy.
Upon the E classes' entry into service, they were an immediate success and from 1924 to 1925 most were superheated, becoming the Es class. In 1934 two E class locos had their weight reduced becoming the Ea class, and several more were converted while being superheated and classified Eas. The last E class was withdrawn in 1963. No. 308 is preserved at the Bassendean Railway Museum.

WAGR Es class
The WAGR Es class were a total of 19 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1924 to 1958.
The Es class were the result of superheating the standard E class which was built for express services. The superheated boilers were built by Midland Railway Workshops who fitted them to the E class when they went in for repairs. In their superheated form, the engines consumed less coal and were more cost-efficient on heavier trains. Some were fitted with larger cylinders and classed Esl, those who retained original cylinders became Eso - however, these designations were later dropped, becoming simply the Es class. No. 308 has been preserved and is on display at Bassendean Railway Museum.

In the United Kingdom and other countries, a grocer, grocery store or a greengrocer is a type of shop that has historically sold food, mostly vegetables and fruits with sometimes addition of other food items. A greengrocer sold mostly fresh fruit and vegetables. Grocers sold more varied food. Grocers shops are usually small. They are often owned by one or two people - a sole trader or partnership with perhaps a delivery boy or girl on a trade bicycle. They are sometimes turned into corporations but that is rare for single-site businesses. When talking about a greengrocer a person may mean the people that work in such a shop or the shop itself. In the UK and the Commonwealth of Nations, during the Victorian period and up to the middle 21st century, before supermarkets grouped together different shops like bakers, butchers and grocers into a single building, grocers were where most people got their fruits and vegetables. Whilst supermarkets have taken over the role of the type of shop where people buy fruits and vegetables individual greengrocers do still exist, especially in developing countries where supermarkets are not yet used as often or in rural towns out in the countryside. Today greengrocers typically cost more to shop at than the cheaper supermarkets because supermarkets can buy much more food at a time than a grocer can and pay cheaper prices: known as an economies of scale.
Food shops have been around since antiquity. Originally each type of merchandise had a specialised shop where one would go to buy their goods and wares. Before shops, would people typically obtained goods by the barter method or by purchasing locally grown foods and locally made goods from local sellers. Beginning with Middle Eastern towns in the 7th millennium BCE, retail marketplaces emerged when civilizations created money to allow buying and selling more easily. These open-air markets were the first type of retail outlet that could be called shops. By the 17th century, permanent shops with more regular trading hours were beginning to overtake markets and fairs as the main retail outlet. Shopkeepers were active in almost every market town. These shopkeepers sold general merchandise, much like a contemporary convenience store or a general store. As the number of shops grew, they changed. The shopfronts and layouts became more like what people see today. Before the eighteenth century, the typical retail store had no counter, display cases, chairs, mirrors, changing rooms, etc. However, the opportunity for the customer to browse merchandise, touch, and feel products began to be available, with retail innovations from the late 17th and early 18th centuries. By the Victorian period greengrocers were an everyday part of most English towns. This situation continued pretty much the same until the late Victorian period when shops that offered a wider range of products began to be seen. However, in villages, the population could not support larger shops and the reliance on small trade outlets such as greengrocers, bakers, butchers, and general ware shops was the norm. About the turn of the century corner shops (so-called convenience shops) sprang up as mini supermarkets offering all forms of retail items. In the mid-twentieth century, towns were growing larger as people moved from rural areas to urban areas in search of jobs due to the industrial revolution. This made it possible for supermarkets to thrive. Specialized shops such as the baker, butcher, and grocer began to close. In the first decade of the 2000s there was a decline of close to 3000 registered greengrocers on Britain's streets. In April 1997 there were 6,916 registered greengrocers but this had declined to 3,948 by April of 2008.
The Worshipful Company of Grocers has been a trade organization and one of the original "Great" Livery Companies of the City of London holding precedence second in the list of the original companies. Beginning as the Pepperers in 1180 the company was in charge of seeing that spices and pepper were not adultered (were pure) acting as a health and safety organization protecting the public long before laws would be made to do the same. By 1426 the Grocers had moved their headquarters to Grocers Hall in the City of London. The Company had a great influence on the King and on government especially regarding trade and taxation.
With more mechanised transport people began to move back from the cities into the countryside where smaller shops once again found favour. It became trendy to shop at individual shops like the grocers, bakers, and butchers as people had more disposable income and could afford the higher prices. There was also the feeling that people were getting higher quality food from smaller shops and were doing their bit to support local retailers. In some places, greengrocers are making a comeback as people prefer to have the perceived freshness and better person-to-person customer service of a smaller shop.

The Jadeja (also spelled Jarejo) (Gujarati: ) is a Rajput clan who claim to be descended from the legendary Jamshed of Iran. They also claim descent from Lord Krishna, a Abhira. althrought the word "Jadeja" possbily is derived from 'jadum or Jadam'. Some scholars, regard them as Ahirs. They originated from pastoral communities and laid a claim on the Rajput identity after marriages with Sodha Rajput women by adopting a process called Rajputisation.
WAGR Esl class
The WAGR Esl class were express steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR).
The Esl resulted from fitting the Es class with larger 19-inch diameter cylinders. The 'l' suffix stands for 'large', with 's' meaning 'superheated', hence E class superheated large-cylinders or Esl. By the early 1940s, the Esl designation was folded into the Es designation like the Eso classification, though they continued with Esl modifications. None survived into preservation.
WAGR Eso class
The WAGR Eso class were express steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR).
The Eso was a designation reserved for Es class (superheated E class) locomotives that retained their original 17-inch cylinders in contrast to those that were rebuilt with 19-inch cylinders and classed Esl. By the early 1940s, the Eso classification was abandoned being replaced by the regular Es designation which all under the former classification carried until their withdrawals.
WAGR Ea class
The WAGR Ea class were a total of 3 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1934 to 1939.
The Ea class were the result of rebuilding several E class engines with less weight to run on lighter-laid lines, this was a success. Es class locos were also converted, becoming the Eas class. Despite being successful all had been reverted to their original form by the 1940s. None of the Ea class survives today, however, one Es class is displayed at the Bassendean Railway Museum.
WAGR Eas class
The WAGR Eas class were a total of 4 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1934 to 1937.
The Eas class were the result of altering the Es class to weigh less in order to work on lighter-laid lines around the network, where more powerful locos were required. Despite the modifications being a success all were reconverted to Es class engines from 1936 to 1937, exactly why isn't known.
WAGR Ec class
The WAGR Ec class were a total of 20 heavy-duty steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1901 to 1925.
The Ec class were built by the Baldwin Locomotives Works (BLW) of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA as compounds in place of the awaiting E class, which were also 4-6-2s from Britain. They were assembled at Fremantle Railway Workshops and entered service on the Eastern Goldfields Railway from Northam to Southern Cross.
Some were converted to weigh less to work on lighter-laid lines, being classed the Eca class. Overall the engines were considered a success and were significantly rebuilt from 1923 to 1925 like other aging locomotives that were considered a success, in this form they were reclassified the L class.
Surya Majapahit
Surya Majapahit is a symbol that is found in the ruins of Kingdom of Majapahit era The Symbol is a Sun weight eight rays and a circular disk middle that depicts the gods from the Hindu religion it may be produced after combining the celestial diagram with the Majapahit Solar Sun, or with the normal sun. Since it was often used in the Majapahit era, it may also function as a symbol of the Majapahit Kingdom.
WAGR Eca class
The WAGR Eca class were a total of 9 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1920 to 1925.
The Eca class were the result of reducing the weight of the Ec class 4-6-2 heavy-duty goods engines to run on lighter-laid lines that required more motive power. Conversions started in 1920 but were halted in 1923 when all Ec and Eca class locos were drastically rebuilt as the L class to modernise them for the 1920s.
WAGR L class
The WAGR L class were a total of 20 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1924 to 1958.
The L class were the result of significantly rebuilding the Ec class 4-6-2 heavy goods engines with new boilers, cylinders, and valve gear at Midland Railway Workshops. They operated goods services from Northam to Wongan Hills and onto Mullewa, while also running to Meekatharra on the Northern Railway.
One-point cylinder lubrication was first trialled on the L class being so successful that it became standard on all WAGR stock from then on. The class became riddled with metal fatigue in the 1930s, having new frames fitted to 14 of the class up until 1948. The L class were displaced by the W class and the last was scrapped around 1965
By the 4th century BC, fortified cities were common in India, with the largest being between Mathura and Magadha. The most notable description is one by Megasthenes, who described Pataliputra as guarded by a ditch with wooden walls and 570 towers and 54 gates.
Ancient Indian forts, found in shastras and stupa reliefs, had crenellations, embrasures, and sloping walls. The Arthashastra, an Indian treatise on military strategy, identifies six major types of forts based on their defense modes: Jala-durga (water fort), Antardvipa-durga (island fortress), Sthala-durga (plain fortress), Dhanvana- or Maru-durga (Desert Fort), Giri-durga (Hill fort), Prantara-durga (flat hill summit), Giri-parshva-durga (fortifications and civilian structures extend down to the hill slope), Guha-durga (valley surrounded by hills), Vana-durga (forest fort), Khanjana-durga (built on a fen surrounded by thorny forests), Sthambha-durga (built in the forest among tall trees), Mahi-durga (earthen fort), Parigha-durga (surrounded by earthen walls), Panka-durga (surrounded by fens or quicksand).
The term "fort" became common in India in the 17th-19th century, with local languages adding fort names to local words. British forts used simple designs at first. Many were privately owned. Three major methods of building were used: earthen ramparts, rubble with earth on the outside, or stone and masonry work, which were the strongest. Earthen ramparts allowed for higher and steeper walls, but the earthen core could accumulate water, requiring drainage channels. The third method involved using mortar, which was strong and long-lasting. In medieval India, burying humans in fort walls was believed to keep evil spirits away. The Sri Qila in Delhi buried 8,000 Mughal skulls, and Purandar Fort had a first-born son and wife buried in the foundation. Other fortifications included rock cut water cisterns, ponds, wells, and lakes. Parapets with merlons and loopholes were unique in Indian fortifications. The merlons were semicircular and pointed at the top. Loopholes were made in both merlons and crenels, either looking forward or downward. The shape of loopholes and merlons varied across the castle.
Muslim forts featured a citadel in the center and more space between the citadel and walls. Gates were highly decorated, with two distinct styles: Hindu with a lintel and Mughal with an arch. Forts used natural rock formations for defense against attacks, and the main gate was mostly facing north.
The British established trading posts along the coast to provide security against local rajas and European rival nations. Forts like Mumbai, Fort William, and Fort St George were built. They were simple due to the East India Company's refusal to pay more and the lack of trained engineers. However, hostilities with the French and the Company's growing power led to more complex designs. Many Indian forts were abandoned due to rulers' ambitions and have deteriorated over time, with some remaining private property.
