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.

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
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.

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.
2. Back in High School, so Long Ago… The Five-paragraph Essay It was a good start for what it was trying to do: “Say what you’re going to say, then say it, and then say what you said.”
3. Example 5-paragraph Essay Thesis: “Boys rule and girls drool. Boys are too cool for school.” Outline: “Boys rule and girls drool.” Evidence for boys ruling point one Point two Evidence for girls drooling point Evidence for boys being too cool for school Point one Point two 5. Conclusion: “Boys rule and girls drool. Boys are too cool for school”
4. Strengths of the 5-Paragraph Easy to write quickly Easy to follow Well-suited for 2-3 page assignments It’s a classic!
5. And Weakness of the 5-Paragraph Difficult for long papers Lose opportunity to include additional useful information such as history or review of literature. Comes off as less sophisticated.
6. So what other options are there? Compare/Contrast History Review of Literature Argument and Counter-argument Implications Etc.
7. Consider Timbur’s Paper Introduction Roots of SACHED and its goals Changes in race relations Critique of 70s-era black education Political composition of SACHED Explanation of thesis (definitions, etc.) SACHED popular literacy
8. Popular Literacy and SACHED Roux’s work “Easy English” Origins of “Easy English” Problems with “Easy English” … How does this outline change things? Lengthening and strengthening
9. A More Sophisticated Outline Thesis: “Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider; girls go to Mars to get more candy bars.” Thesis History of juvenile space travel Lack of gender studies in review of literature Boys’ increased stupidity, post-Jupiter Evidence #1 Evidence #2 Girls’ increased candy from Mars Evidence #1 Evidence #2 Implications for gender relations on Earth Conclusion
10. Strengths of a Mixed Outline Greater freedom of motion More information than just analysis Weaknesses of a Mixed Outline Can be harder to follow Hint 1: Try using sub-headings! Hint 2: Try setting out “road map” in thesis Best for longer papers
11. Bless Your HS Teachers! The 5-paragraph essay is a beautiful thing and very useful for high school students to learn, but there’s a whole world of organization out there. Go and write! Please remember to go home and write your high school teacher a nice email thanking him/her for teaching you the basics of writing!
