A writer selects words and shapes them in the same way that an artist mixes particular hues of paint and applies them to a canvas using brush strokes. Writer’s effect is the powerful feeling that writers intend to inspire in their readers, through the use of special words or expressions or some unique patterns of writing. Writers commonly create effect through the use of the following techniques:

Characteristics of Report || Characteristics of Short Report That objective and purpose can only be achieved if a report has the following qualities and characteristics: It should be factual: Every report should be based on facts, verified information and valid proofs. Clear and Easily understandable: Explained below. Free from errors and duplication.
1- the city that you need to write about.Chicago, ILIndica.docxjeremylockett77
1- the city that you need to write about.
Chicago, IL
Indicate two different criteria that might be used when deciding whether a city might be a good choice for someone in your career field. Please note: you are not arguing here about a specific city itself. Instead, you are suggesting the types of things that could be used, such as the weather.(Don't use this as one of the criteria in your response.) Be sure to state which career field you are referring to.
Explain the reasoning for your criteria in one or more paragraphs for each criterion. Why would these criteria be important in making the decision of whether to move to this city? What types of things would someone need to know in deciding whether these criteria are favorable or not? (For instance, in considering weather, you'd probably want to know average temperature during each season, typical rain or snow outlooks, and any particular threats the city tends to experience due to weather.)
2- the city that you need to write about.
Chicago, IL
Purpose
The report on a city is an analytical report. You will be drawing a conclusion about whether a specific city would be a good location for someone in your career field, based on the specific criteria noted in the report.
One goal of the report is for you to practice coming up with reasonable criteria and applying them in order to draw a well-defended conclusion. Another goal is to practice research skills, including finding, using, and documenting secondary research.
Context
You have received an internship in department of the college where you will receive your degree. You've learned that many students in your field receive job offers that require them to move to another state. As a service, the department wants to prepare reports that give an overview of some of the more popular cities, to help students in their decision of whether to accept the offers when they graduate. You have been assigned a specific city to investigate.
Requirements
I will assign your city, and your report must be on this city. (I am going to assign different cities to each student in class.)
The report must use at least four sources for the information. At least three of these must be secondary sources. If you know someone who has lived in your assigned city, you may interview that person as the fourth source. Give credit to all sources used.
The report must contain at least five criteria that a person would reasonably use in determining whether that city is a good choice for them. It may, of course, contain more than this. We will discuss possible criteria in the discussion this week, but you may use criteria that are not mentioned in the discussion.
The report should be at least five pages long. i anticipate that the visuals used will not take up more than one page of this length.
The report must have at least two visuals (photographs, charts, graphs). If these are copied from someone, give credit to the source.
Structure and Content
The report must be ...
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

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.

18. Newspaper Report
To begin with ‘Newspaper reports’
must have a Headline.
Headlines are a kind of summary in note
form, leaving out unnecessary words.
Their aim is to attract reader interest in
the minimum amount of space and
indicate the attitude the report will adopt.
18
19. Headlines tend to be:
consist
of a maximum of six words
contain sensational vocabulary (e.g crash,
tragic)
use short words (usually no longer than two
syllables)
use the shortest synonyms (e.g. weds for
marries)
use the present tense for events in the recent
past
leave out definite and indefinite articles (i.e.
‘the’ and ‘a’)
19
20. Examination Tip: Popular newspapers like to
use the following devices in their headlines
Puns
– US Dollar for success
Assonance- Hit list twist
Alliteration – Fears of free fall
Quotations – For richer, for poorer
20
21. Newspaper reports generally follow this
order.
summary of recent event. The first few sentences
must answer the question Who? What? When?
Where? and How? About the event, followed by
Why?
Proceeding paragraph should talk about the
background leading to the event
The later part of the report must return to the
immediate situation
The closing part should consist some response of
those involved in the event.
The report concludes with looking ahead of near
future.
21
22. Difference between other forms of reports with
that of newspaper report.
They
follow no specific order, newspaper
reports follow a chronological order
given above
Secondly newspaper reports do not
involve any emotional responses or
personal views of the reporter, or any
direct address to the reader. On the other
hand accounts may have personal
responses of the viewer.
22
23. Do
not confuse it with other reports.
Use
passive voice and avoid the use of ‘I’
pronoun in newspaper report.
Keep
the language simple because
remember the newspaper report is read by
everyone, it is not restricted to a specific
audience.
