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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

3. Protective equipment
• Personnel need to be protected from the
hazards of the hazardous materials release.
• Structural firefighting turnouts provide very
little chemical protection.
• First responders should be aware of
chemical protective clothing and understand
its limitations.
4. Types of protective equipment
• Level A suits give high protection against
vapors, gas, mist, and particles for the
wearer and the SCBA
• Level B suits provide splash protection, and
is used with an SCBA
• Level C is a level B suit with a different
form of respiratory protection, like
respirators.
5. Types of protective equipment
• Level D protective equipment provides no
respiratory protection, and very little skin
protection. Work clothes, uniforms, and structural
turnouts are all considered to be level D
protection.
• Turnouts are not resistant to corrosives, not
airtight, and will not protect against vapors. They
may even soak up a hazardous substance.
9. Local emergency response plans
• A local plan must address the following
areas;
– Hazmat facilities and methods of
transportation
– Methods of handling hazmat incidents
– Methods to warn people at risk
– Equipment and information resources
10. Local emergency response plans
(cont.)
– Evacuation plans
– Training of first responders
– Schedule for excercising the plan
• First responders should be familiar with the
plan, and know where to find it.
• Copies should be made for all first
responders.
11. Emergency information
management
• There are two types of communication
associated with hazmat emergencies
– External communications are the initial
dispatch and initial information
– Internal communications consist of
additional information that responders
gather after they have arrived on scene.
12. External communication data
• Location of incident
• Identity of material involved
• Approximate quantity of material
• Weather conditions at site
• Persons and areas threatened
• Events leading to incident
• Any control actions taken
• Type of assistance needed
• Responsible party and contact data
13. Internal communication data
• Upon finding that a hazmat incident is in progress,
first responders should ask for additional hazmat
response
• Additional radio channels will need to be assigned
• Whenever possible, on scene units need to talk
directly to technical specialists
• All information must also be shared with the
incident commander.
14. Mission of incident operations
for the awareness level
• Recognize the incident and implement sops
• Call for appropriate help to mitigate the
incident
• Secure the area and deny entry
• Survey the incident from a distance and
identify the material
• Determine appropriate actions as per the
dot erg guide
15. Incident management
• The incident command system should be
used to manage the incident, and should
include the following features;
– Common terminology
– Modular organization
– Integrated communications
– Unified command structure
16. Hazard assessment
• Based on an assessment of the situation, the
ic needs to develop an action plan based on
three strategic goals;
• Life safety
• Enviormental protection
• Property conservation
17. Modes of operation
• General classification of actions to be taken;
– Non-intervention
– Offensive
– Defensive
18. Non-intervention
• When to use;
– When hazards at site
are too great
– Beyond capability of
responders
– Explosions are
imminent
– Container damage
threatens a massive
release
• Involves the
following;
– Withdrawing to a safe
distance
– Report scene
conditions and control
scene
– Call for necessary
evacuations and call
for additional resources
19. Defensive
• When to use;
– When hazard type calls
for defensive actions
– When first responders
are trained and
equipped for defensive
hazmat operations
• Tasks needed;
– All of the same tasks
as non-interventioon
along with;
– Control material
spread by diverting to
a safe location
– Construct dikes and
dams
– Control ignition
sources
20. Offensive
• This is where responders take aggressive and
direct action with containers and equipment to
stop the release, stabilize and mitigate the incident
• Will result in contact with the material and will
require appropriate protective equipment
• This is beyond the scope of first responders and is
carried out by hazmat technicians
21. Determining levels of hazardous
materials incidents
• Level I incidents are the least serious , and within
the capabilities of the fire department. Gasoline
spill from a vehicle
• Level ii incidents are larger and may overwhelm
the local juristiction by size or material involved
drum of corrosives or overturned tanker
• Level iii incidents are on a disaster scale and will
involve help from many agencies, including the
state and/or federal goverment
22. Eliminating ignition sources
• Internal combustion engines
• Electric motors, switches and controls
• Lighting equipment
• Fuel powered equipment
• Open or pilot flames
• Electrostatic or frictional sparks
• Heated metal surfaces
• Fusees, flares,and lanterns
• Radios, hand lights,pagers and pass alarms
23. Establishing the initial isolation
distance
• Any material in the yellow or blue pages of
the dot erg guide that are highlighted are in
the green pages of isolation distances.
• These distances do not apply if the material
is on fire or has been leaking for more than
30 minutes
• Green pages also give protective action
distances for small and large spills
24. Controlling access to the initial
isolation zone
• Station a responder at approaches and deny
entry
• Activate local alarm devices
• Reroute traffic away from scene
• Put up physical barriers tape, rope,
barricades
• Transmit warnings over pa systems
• Use media to give warnings
25. Evacuees
• Need to be told nature of emergency, route
to proceed, and location of assembly area
• Evacuees may need to be decontaminated,
and triage may need to be performed.
• Record identification of those evacuated
26. Triage/treatment area
• Evacuees are brought here for assessment
and stabilization
• Responders should use caution with victims
when moving them from decon to triage in
case they have not been throughly
decontaminated
• Victims are then handed over to ems
personnel who have been trained in hazmat
response
