A root is a word element that forms the base of a word and can have prefixes or suffixes added to derive new words. Roots often come from Latin or Greek and carry a specific meaning. Examples provided describe common roots such as "voc" meaning word/name and "audi" meaning hear. Common prefixes and suffixes are also described, including how they can change a word's meaning or class. Prefixes are added to the beginning of a word while suffixes are added to the end.
Denotation is when you mean what you say, literally. Connotation is created when you mean something else, something that might be initially hidden. The connotative meaning of a word is based on implication, or shared emotional association with a word.

Etymology is the study of the history of words, their origins, and how their form and meaning have changed over time. By extension, the term "the etymology of [a word]" means the origin of the particular word.

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.
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.

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.

2. WHAT IS A ROOT?
A root, as its name suggests, is a word or
word part from which other words
grow, usually through the addition
of prefixes and suffixes.
The root of the word vocabulary, for
example, is voc, a Latin root meaning
"word" or "name." This root also
appears in the words advocacy,
convocation, evocative,
vocal, and vociferous.
3. EXAMPLES:
ROOT MEANING EXAMPLES
-ast(er)-(G) star asteroid, astronomy
-audi- (L) hear audible, audience
-auto- (G) self automatic, autopsy
-bene- (L) good benefit, benign
-bio- (G) life biography, biology
-chrono- (G) time chronic, synchronize
-dict- (L) say dictate, diction
-duc- (L) lead, make deduce, produce
-gen- (L) give birth gene, generate
7. PREFIX
A letter or group of letters attached to
the beginning of a word that partly
indicates its meaning.
Common prefixes include anti-
(against), co- (with), mis- (wrong,
bad), and trans-(across).
8. TYPES OF
Derivational prefixes do not
normally alter the word class of
the base word; that is, a prefix is
added to a noun to form a new
noun with a different meaning.
10. PREFIX
During the 1980s, 'mini-' gave way to
'micro-,' which has yielded to 'nano-.'
In the new millennium, companies
such as Nanometrics, Nanogen and
NanoPierce Technologies have all
embraced the prefix, despite
complaints their products were hardly
nano-scale (a billionth of a meter or
smaller).
(Alex Boese, "Electrocybertronics," Smithsonian, March 2008)
11. COMMON PREFIXES
Prefix Meaning Example
a-, an- without amoral
ante- before antecedent

15. SUFFIX
"Gazebo: The name is an 18th-
century joke word combining
'gaze' with the Latin suffix 'ebo,'
meaning 'I shall.‘”
(Encyclopedia Britannica Online)
16. TYPES OF
Derivational suffixes, on the other
hand, usually change both the
meaning and the word class; that
is, a suffix is often added to a
verb or adjective to form a new
noun with a different meaning.
17. EXAMPLE:
adjective: dark / suffixed
noun: darkness
verb: agree / suffixed noun: agreement
noun: friend / suffixed noun: friendship
(Douglas Biber, Susan Conrad, and Geoffrey Leech, Longman Student Grammar
of Spoken English, Longman, 2002)
18. SUFFIX
A letter or group of letters added to
the end of a word or stem (i.e.,
a base form), serving to form a new
word or functioning as
an inflectional ending.
