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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

4. The Five Communication Styles
▶ Assertive
▶ Aggressive
▶ Passive-aggressive
▶ Submissive
▶ Manipulative
5. The Assertive Style
Assertive communication is born of high self-
esteem. It is the healthiest and most effective style
of communication - the sweet spot between being
too aggressive and too passive.
6. The Assertive Style (Cont’d)
Behavioral Characteristics
▶ Achieving goals without hurting others
▶Protective of own rights and respectful of others'
rights
▶ Socially and emotionally expressive
▶Making your own choices and taking responsibility
for them
▶Asking directly for needs to be met, while
accepting the possibility of rejection
▶ Accepting compliments
7. The Assertive Style (Cont’d)
Non-Verbal Behavior

▶Posture – open posture, symmetrical balance, tall,
relaxed, no fidgeting
▶ Gestures – even, rounded, expansive

, but I won't be able to help you with
your project this afternoon, as I have a dentist
appointment."
9. The Assertive Style (Cont’d)
People on the Receiving end Feel
▶ They can take the person at their word
▶ They know where they stand with the person
▶The person can cope with justified criticism and
accept compliments
▶ The person can look after themselves
▶ Respect for the person
10. The Aggressive Style
This style is about winning – often at someone else's
expense. An aggressive person behaves as if their
needs are the most important, as though they have
more rights, and have more to contribute than
other people. It is an ineffective communication
style as the content of the message may get lost
because people are too busy reacting to the way it's
delivered.
11. The Aggressive Style (Cont’d)
Behavioral Characteristics
▶ Frightening, threatening, loud, hostile
▶ Willing to achieve goals at expense of others

▶ A loss of respect for the aggressive person
▶ Mistakes and problems are not reported to an aggressive
person in case they "blow up'. Others are afraid of being
railroaded, exploited or humiliated.
15. The Passive-Aggressive Style
This is a style in which people appear passive on the
surface, but are actually acting out their anger in
indirect or behind-the-scenes ways. Prisoners of War
often act in passive-aggressive ways in order to deal
with an overwhelming lack of power.
17. The Passive-Aggressive Style

pretends to be warm and friendly
18. The Passive-Aggressive Style

something like "Why don't you go ahead and do it;
my ideas aren't very good anyway" but maybe

such as "You always know better in any case."

out – like I usually have to."

than others

submissive person and eventually give up trying to
help them because their efforts are subtly or overtly
rejected.
25. The Manipulative Style

in it." ('Fishing' for a compliment).
