This document discusses frameworks for analyzing diversity and inclusion in multicultural literature featuring dragons. It presents two continuums: one measuring diversity to homogeneity, and another measuring "something" to "nothing". "Something" refers to culturally unique, locally meaningful content, while "nothing" means shallow, impersonal content. A matrix crosses these, with examples like folktales in the "something for somebody" quadrant versus generic stories in the "nothing for nobody" quadrant. The document cautions against absolute judgments and encourages considering diverse elements even in otherwise homogeneous texts.
This is the talk I gave to the Tar River Reading Council of Pitt County, NC, about multicultural children's literature. The main idea is that all texts send messages, so as teachers we should be sure those messages are as inclusive as possible of our students and our world. Using Rudine Sims Bishop's definition of multicultural children's literature and her concept of how books can be both windows into the lives of others and mirrors to reflect back our own stories, I share information, recommendations, and arts-based instructional approaches with multicultural children's literature that teachers can use in their classrooms.

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.

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.
