It is not a hard task to imagine the impact of the First World War on authors and poets. The First World War was the first greatest hostility among the nations and the whole earth witnessed its devastation. At that time traditional norms began to receive a sudden shock. In every sector: social, economic or cultural, common people began to observe an unexpected transition and as authors and poets had more receptive personalities, they captured this situation and engaged themselves to put an end to the old systems. They manipulated their writings to welcome this new phenomenon. In Mrs Dalloway, Virginia Woolf has focused on post war London with people who have survived and continued their lives despite the tumult of war. The First World War also left great imprint on the history and psyche of the people of other part of the globe. In Kazi Nazrul Islam‟s famous epistolary novel Badhon Hara, some glimpses of the day to day lives of typical Bangali of West Bengal are portrayed during wartime. The events of both novels have an indirect link with the Great War but war is not the sole theme in both of these novels. These two novels emphasize human relationship, love and affection and make the readers aware of a sense of freedom. This paper tries to make a comparative study between Mrs. Dalloway and Badhon Hara to find out the similarities and also the unique properties that are manifested in these two pieces of post war literature

Women writers of the romantic period finale: Rewriting the Masculine WorldJoshua Gnana Raj P
The Romantic Period was an artistic, literary and intellectual movement, it is called such since, the period brought in many changes which include the rapid spread of the ownership of clocks with minute hands throughout the late nineteenth-century. This period made lawyers to condemn old sundials as childish. It was also the time when culturally as well as socially, termed as an age of transition from gothic writing characteristics of the second half of the eighteenth-century with a particular appeal to a new generation of women readers, to a more patriarchal aesthetics in which the popular styles of earlier ages were dismissed as unmanly.
This was the period in which men writers flourished. Yet there are many female writers who never had their fame glow as their male counterparts. This paper will deal with the hidden female writers of the Romantic era. This paper will also mainly focus on the rethinking of the individual and the Romantic society at large.
This paper provides a brief summary ob the major literary movements from the 18th to the 20th century. I also highlights the major works of the prominent figures of each literary era.
Concord means a harmonious relationship between two grammatical items. Of all the types of concord the most important is the concord of number and person between the subject and the verb.
In English the concord system is simple, a verb is not affected by the gender system at all because it has the same form for both masculine and feminine subjects. Further, subject-verb-concord in English is restricted to simple present tense. In English there is nothing like object-verb-concord. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about the Grammar topic Concord and its Rules in very clear manner. Please use this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
Tenses demonstrate the time of an action in a sentence usually performed by or centered around the subject of the sentence. The actions are called verbs. Verbs change according to tenses and other issues. As verbs are the most important elements of English sentences, tenses also carry paramount importance in English grammar. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about the Tenses and its types in very detailed manner. Please use this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
A transitive verb is a verb that requires an object to receive the action. An intransitive verb does not take an object. Using an object immediately after an intransitive verb will create an incorrect sentence. However, there may be other information after the verb, such as one or more prepositional phrases or an adverb. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about the Transitive and Intransitive verbs. Please make use of this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
Direct Speech: the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in his own actual words without any change.
Indirect Speech: the message of the speaker is conveyed or reported in our own words. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about Direct and Indirect Speech and the tips for conversion of Direct to Indirect Speech. Please use this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
Phrase and clause are the most important elements of English grammar. Phrase and clause cover everything a sentence has. Clauses are the center of sentences and phrases strengthen the sentences to become meaningful. If the clauses are the pillars of a building, the phrases are the bricks. A phrase usually is always present within a clause, but a phrase cannot have a clause in it. The basic difference between a clause and a phrase is that a clause must have a finite verb and a phrase must not. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly Discussed about the Phrases and Clauses in very detailed manner. Please use this Power Point Presentation for your reference purpose.
A Participle is a word which is partly a verb and partly an Adjective. In this Power Point Presentation I clearly discussed about the Grammar topic Participles and its types and also I enclose the list of Participles in this presentation. Please use this Power Point for your reference purpose.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.

1. Virginia Woolf
Introduction
Virginia Woolf was one of the foremost modernists of the twentieth century. During the interwar period, Woolf was
a significant figure in London literary society. She was also a central figure in the influential Bloomsbury Group of
intellectuals. Her best-known works include the novels Mrs. Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927)
and Orlando (1928), and the book-length essay A Room of One's Own (1929).
Bloomsbury Group
Woolf came to know Lytton Strachey, Rupert Brooke, Leonard Woolf, Roger Fry and various other modernists.
They together formed the nucleus of the intellectual circle of writers and artists known as the Bloomsbury Group. The
members of the group were mostly from upper middle-class professional families.
The Novelist
What drove Woolf was the need to redefine the depiction of life in literature. The early novelists strove very less in
projecting the inner realities and subjectivism that the modernists celebrated. Her novels, along with those of other
modernist novelists, followed “the stream of consciousness” narrative mode. The following are some of the significant
novels of Virginia Woolf.
1. Mrs. Dalloway
Mrs. Dalloway centres on the efforts of Clarissa Dalloway, a middle-aged society woman, to organise a party. Her
life is paralleled with that of Septimus Warren Smith. Smith is a working-class veteran who has returned from the First
World War bearing deep psychological scars.
2. To the Lighthouse
To the Lighthouse centres on the Ramsay family's anticipation of and reflection upon a visit to a lighthouse. One of
the primary themes of the novel is the struggles of the painter Lily Briscoe. The novel is also a meditation upon the
lives of a nation's inhabitants in the midst of war, and of the people left behind. It also explores the passage of time,
and how women are forced by society to allow men to take emotional strength from them.
3. The Waves
The Waves presents a group of six friends whose reflections, which are closer to recitatives than to interior
monologues proper, create a wave-like atmosphere that is more akin to a prose poem than to a plot-centred novel.
4. Between the Acts
Between the Acts sums up Woolf's chief preoccupations: the transformation of life through art, sexual ambivalence
and meditation on the themes of flux of time and life. This book is the most lyrical of all her works, not only in feeling
but in style, being chiefly written in verse. Woolf's work can be understood as consistently in dialogue with
Bloomsbury, particularly its tendency towards doctrinaire rationalism.
The Critic
Woolf condemned the realist writers as “materialists” in her essay Modern Fiction. She even questioned if realism
was real. Conversely, she celebrated the modernist writers as “spiritualists”.
In 1929, Woolf published A Room of One's Own, a feminist essay based on lectures she had given at women's
colleges. In the essay, she examines women's role in literature. Virginia Woolf sets forth the idea that “A woman must
have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.”
Her other critical essays were Three Guineas and On Being Ill. Most of Woolf’s essays were published
posthumously. Today, she stands as one of the most important feminist critics.
Conclusion
Virginia Woolf’s significance lies in her poetic language and the experiments that she carried out in all her novels.
Her essays have become very famous in the recent years. She is still remembered as one of the pillars of the modernist
literature which ruptured with the two-millennium-year old traditional Western literature.
