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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.

2. Adverb clauses
Adverb clauses, also known as adverbial clauses, are groups of
words that function as adverbs in a sentence. They provide
additional information about the verb, adjective, or adverb in the
main clause and answer questions like how, when, where, why,
or to what extent an action or event occurred. Adverb clauses
are introduced by subordinating conjunctions, which connect
them to the main clause.
3. Here are some common subordinating
conjunctions that introduce adverb clauses, along
with examples:
1.Time Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses indicate
when an action takes place.
1. When she arrived, we started the meeting.
2. After he finished his homework, he went to the park.
2.Place Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses indicate
where an action takes place.
1. He will meet you where you prefer.
2. Wherever she goes, she takes her camera.
4. 1.Manner Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses describe how
an action is performed.
1. She completed the project as if she had been working on it for
months.
2. He drives as though he's in a race.
2.Reason or Cause Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses
explain why something happened.
1. He stayed home because he was feeling ill.
2. Since it was raining, we canceled the picnic.
3.Condition Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses indicate
the condition under which an action occurs.
1. If you study hard, you will pass the exam.
2. We will go to the beach provided that the weather is nice.
5. 1.Purpose Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses explain
the purpose or intent behind an action.
1. She studied diligently so that she could get good grades.
2. He went to the store in order to buy some groceries.
2.Concession Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses
show a contrast or concession.
1. Although it rained, they still went hiking.
2. She passed the test even though she didn't study much.
3.Comparison Adverb Clauses: These adverb clauses
compare one action to another.
1. He works harder than his colleague does.
2. She runs faster than I do.

8. Subordinating
conjunctions
Transitions or subordinating conjunctions are
words or phrases that connect an independent
clause (a complete sentence) to a dependent
clause (an incomplete thought that cannot
stand alone as a sentence). They are used to
show the relationship between the two
clauses, indicating how the information in the
dependent clause is related to the main
clause. These transitions help to create more
complex and cohesive sentences. Here are
some common subordinating conjunctions
and their meanings:
9. 1. Time Subordinating Conjunctions: These conjunctions
indicate when an action or event in the dependent clause occurs
in relation to the main clause.
• After: Indicates that the action in the dependent clause
happens subsequent to the action in the main clause. Example:
After I finish my work, I will go for a walk.
• Before: Indicates that the action in the dependent clause
happens prior to the action in the main clause. Example: I will
eat dinner before I watch TV.
• While: Indicates that the actions in the main and dependent
clauses occur simultaneously. Example: I like to listen to music
while I'm working.
10. 2. Cause and Effect Subordinating Conjunctions:
These conjunctions show a cause-and-effect
relationship between the main clause and the
dependent clause.
• Because: Indicates that the dependent clause
explains the reason for the action in the main clause.
Example: She couldn't sleep well because it was too
noisy.
• Since: Similar to "because," it also shows a cause-
and-effect relationship. Example: Since it was raining,
they stayed indoors.
11. 3. Condition Subordinating Conjunctions: These
conjunctions introduce a condition that must be met for
the main clause to occur.
1.If: Indicates a conditional relationship, where the action in
the dependent clause is required for the action in the
main clause to happen. Example: If it rains, we will stay
home.
2.Unless: Indicates an exception to the condition.
Example: I will go to the party unless I have to work.
12. 4. Purpose Subordinating Conjunctions: These
conjunctions show the purpose or intention behind
the action in the main clause.
1.So that: Indicates the purpose or goal of the action in
the main clause. Example: I'm studying hard so that I
can pass the exam.
2.In order to: Similar to "so that," it also indicates
purpose. Example: She saved money in order to buy a
new car.
13. 1.Contrast Subordinating Conjunctions: These conjunctions
introduce a contrast or opposition to the action in the main clause.
1.Although/Though: Indicates a contrast or concession. Example:
Although it's raining, I'll go for a run.
2.Even though: Similar to "although," it emphasizes the contrast. Example:
Even though she was tired, she finished her work.
2.Comparison Subordinating Conjunctions: These conjunctions
introduce a comparison between the main clause and the
dependent clause.
1.Than: Used in comparative statements. Example: She is taller than her
brother.
2.As: Indicates similarity or equality. Example: She is as smart as her sister

Editor's Notes
Adverb clauses add depth and detail to sentences by providing context and explaining the circumstances surrounding an action or event. They help create more complex and nuanced sentences by allowing you to express a wide range of information in a single sentence.
