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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
3. Topic 1– Digital Residents
The first taskof the module was to explain the concept of digital residents and digital visitors. I dove
straight in with my own opinions, alongside a range of sources. At this stage I wanted to test the water
and establish my writing style and the style of my blog.
Perhaps the most important lesson I learnt here was the importance of visualmedia to a blog post, asI
struggled to include any ehre, and Icertainly carried that forward into my next post.
4.
5. Topic 2– OnlineProfiles
This was arguably my most successfulblog post from the module. I used what I’d learned about the
importance of visualmedia in topic 1 to dive straight into topic 2 with aneye-catching gif asmy
‘cover’. The taskwas to discuss the risks and benefits of having more than one online identity,
something which I discovered I was strongly against during the course of my research.
Not only did I use this week to fuel conversation among my peers and provoke debate, I also learnt
more about the way I use social media and took measures to ensure allof my online profile were
consistent with my true identity.
6.
7. Topic 3– Professional Profiles
After the success I had in topic 2 I wasdetermined to ride the wave into topic 3 and I wasrelatively
successful. Ifound a great range of alternative media, such as YouTube videos, and continued to use a
wide variety of sources and stimuli to formulate my opinions.
I also learned a great deal about the effective ways to builda LinkedIn profile and spent several days
working on my own, with the result that I have had many interactions with jobrecruiters who have
takennote of my profile and decided to enquire further.

9. Topic 4– Social Media Ethics
Given that many of the topics discussed in this module involved socialmedia in some way it seemed
prudent to discuss the ethics as such. I chose to consider the ethical implications of online candidate
and employee screening with regards to employers, and this may have limited my scope somewhat.
A key lesson I took from topic 4 wasthat straying too close to topics that I had already covered can
make life difficult when it comes to creating new content and encouraging new discussion. Clearly
originality is key.
10.
11. Topic 5– OpenAccess
Topic 5 was perhaps the most ‘standalone’ of all the topics we covered, in that the open access debate
was one that didn’t really overlap with personal socialmedia use or individual privacy, which had
been the main crux of our work thus far. However, I found it particularly interesting, asI’ve come
across the implications of open access (or lackthereof) inmy own YouTube video productions.
In order to return to my sense of originality I chose amore abstract approach to topic 5, combining two
aspects of open access that appear quite separate at first glance. Ifeel this was generally successful, but
it did lead to some confusion among my peers.
12. That was just a quick run-through of the
most important aspects of each topic. To
