Techniques to Teach Drama in a Language Classroom
Drama is specific mode of fiction represented in performance. It is an important genre. It consists of various emotions. Drama is a potential resource to create wonderful activities to maximize language learning in the classroom with full of fun. Language learning should be a matter of fun. It is totally non-serious thing. Pupil should enjoy a drama class.
Considerable difficulties in teaching English to very young learners (2.5 - 4...Hoang Tam
The presentation is revolved around experiences shared in the journal the author wrote over eight months teaching English to eight children (two three-year old children, and six four-year old ones). First, she would highlight two considerable difficulties she encountered. Specifically, I could not implement most of the activities carefully planned for I spent most of the time running, chasing, calling out these “uncontrollable” kids’ names, begging them to stop, sit down and learn. Consequently, she was always both physically and mentally exhausted after every class. However, once she could figure out effective ways to settle them down to teach, another problem arose: they did not show any interests in looking at her, listening to her, and doing what she asked and then they quickly got back to the very crazy racing, chasing and running. Second, after presenting the two significant obstacles, the author would share techniques in making these very young learners (1) ready to learn and then (2) engaging in learning English.
Some facts about me :-) Hi, everyone. It is my pleasure to be to share with you my experience in teaching English to very young learners. I am teaching English to English major at University of Social Sciences and Humanities, HCMC, Vietnam. In 2013, I had a chance to start a part-time job as a teacher to very young learners. I had 8 month experience in teaching kids (april 2013 to Dec 2013). I recognized that it was extremely important to invest time and effort in finding educational, compatible, and effective methods to teach this type of learner, so I applied for a scholarship on Early Childhood Development, then I failed. ;-) Then I had to get back to the university and continued my life as an EFL teacher to young adult! But i don’t want to make these experiences die out, so whenever having chances to share, I always grasp them and share with people interested.

Internationalisation of universities of recent years has changed the work of language centres considerably. The institutional focus on English as lingua franca on one hand and the interest of international students and staff in languages of the local cultures surrounding the universities on the other have brought the necessity to adapt educational practices of language teachers to the dynamic multilingual academic environment.
In this paper, I will present a Creative Approach to Language Teaching (CALT) as a possible tool for such an adaptation. I will introduce theories of M. Csikszentmihalyi, K. Robinson, E. de Bono, J.P. Guilford and B. Krouwel that enable us to view creativity as an integral part of language teaching practice. I will address questions of creative potential, processes, situations and barriers, and I will identify approaches that can help teachers broaden their own repertoire as multilingual educators. I will discuss successful examples of how creativity may equip teachers with strategies that can help solve a wider variety of challenges that multilingual classes bring.
In this talk we looked at how the language classroom is often subverted by the young learner and how teachers can appropriate this chance happening and build it into the lesson to make learning more significant and meaningful.

Even in organizations where training and development priorities are closely aligned with business goals there’s plenty of room for improvement.
So, the question is what barriers do we need to be overcome if training and development departments are to increase the value they add to workforce performance and productivity, and remain relevant?
In this webinar we'll outline the 5 barriers to effective training and development programs and best practices for overcoming those barriers.
1. Efficiency -
2. Status Quo - inertia and risk aversion.
3. Convenience - throwing training at the problem and hoping it works.
4. Training Mindset - moving from a focus on training to performance.
5. Manager Support - managers are the single most important factor in improving employee performance.

Internet Use By Australian Residents From Non English Speaking BackgroundsBang the Table
This slideshow has been put together for our blog. It presents some data from Australian Bureau of Statistics surveys about internet usage by Australian residents born in non-English speaking countries. The presentation has been put together because we get a lot of questions about this subject from government organisations concerned about internet use by their migrant communities and what this might mean for their adoption of online consultation methods.

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.
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.
