Bmc english language_composition(situational writing)(proposals)Adrian Peeris
I hope that O and N level students may find this set of slides accessible when they are revising the structure and content of proposals. Proposal writing is still an integral part of the English Language paper. It is also a skill that would stand one in good stead in the working world.
These slides deals with another primary skill in linguistics. Why we write and what is purpose of writing..What are the process in which people write. and how we analyse it...and most importantly what are the types in writing and their exercises.
A great e-book to help develop your basic English language skills, especially if you are a student, working professional, job-seeker.
This e-book covers the following important topics:
- Parts of speech.
- Punctuation.
- Commonly confused words and phrases.
- Tips for filling in a college registration form.
- Learning how to summarise.
- Tips for completing written assignments.
- How to answer exam questions.
- How to write a cover letter when applying for a job.
- How to write a resignation letter.
- How to write e-mails.
We have experimented with the Style Guide™ and discovered that when ESL writers use it, especially when a tutor gets them started, their mastery of writing increases dramatically.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
