The document summarizes the results of a survey given to 19 high school seniors about their stresses related to school and parents. Key findings from the survey include:
- 78% of students said their parents annoy them about grades and chores
- 78% have been yelled at by their parents for no reason
- 89% said their parents are or have been overprotective
The survey asked questions about relationships with parents, homework, rumors, and how often parents don't allow students to leave the house. The conclusion is that the survey confirms that school and parents are two of the biggest stresses in a teen's life.

Commitment to Student and Student Learning
Adults must be alert to sexed-up images targeted at very young girls ZOSIA BIELSKI Globe and Mail; Published Tuesday, Jun. 09, 2009 4:00AM EDT; Last updated Thursday, Mar. 10, 2011 4:25PM EST
They troll gossip blogs, pore over Miley Cyrus videos and eyeball toy store shelves. They're not preteens, but a crew of early childhood educators on a mission: to show parents and teachers what their five- to 11-year-old charges are ingesting.
The educators from the University of Toronto's Ontario Institute for Studies in Education are meeting with teachers across North America to drive home the message that consumerist culture is sexualizing girls, and early onset puberty is worsening the problem.
The educators want to deepen elementary school teachers' understanding of media. They will present their research, entitled the Pink Project, at a U.S. National Association for the Education of Young Children gathering in Charlotte, N.C., next week.
Early childhood education specialist Kimberly Bezaire spoke to The Globe and Mail.
Why are you looking at girls aged 5 to 11 specifically?
There's so much research on teens and that three- to five-year-old range, but so little from 5 to 11. Biology and branding are really changing the ways these girls are growing up today.
What do you mean by biology changing?
Accelerated puberty - early onset puberty. It's commonplace now for a certain percentage of girls to be having their period when they're 8. We still haven't gotten a clear answer on that one. Body mass index is one of the speculations, and also environmental conditions. Then it's coupled with acceleration in social maturity and high achievement pressures. Girls excel but it's a double-edged sword: Along with that comes an obsessive perfectionism.
You look at digital characters. What do you mean by that?
Miley Cyrus, the G-rated [actress] on Nickelodeon who seems so wholesome - she doesn't stand alone: There's Hannah Montana, clothing, products, YouTube videos, her Vanity Fair photo, her fashion photos in all the tabloid magazines, and there's 24/7 access to those things. [Colleague] Shelley Murphy wanted to be Laurie Partridge when she was growing up. The most personal information she could learn was her star's height, weight and favourite toothpaste. Now, the girls mine and know every single little detail - who [Ms. Cyrus] is dating, what she wants to wear and buy, who she's posed in her underwear for, what picture she took in the shower to send to which boy and that she wants to have breasts like Katy Perry. We found from our interviews with parents that they often aren't aware of the extent of information their girls know and make sense of.
And how do they make sense of it?
That's the complicated question. Making a YouTube video of yourself in a push-up bra and a tank top when you're 10 years old and having adult men subscribe to your [channel] - that's what we're seeing. They're looking at media ...

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.
