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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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
Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
2. Objectives:
1. Describe various efforts to regulate concentrated
corporate power
2. Discuss Theodore Roosevelt’s interest in environmental
conservation
3. Roosevelt’s Presidency
-Known as Teddy Roosevelt
-Domestically he was committed to progressives
-His reform programs became known as the square deal. The Square Deal was
President Theodore Roosevelt's domestic program, which reflected his three
major goals: conservation of natural resources, control of corporations, and
consumer protection. These three demands are often referred to as the "three Cs"
of Roosevelt's Square Deal. He was going to treat everyone the same.
4. 4
For many Western observers, the idea of
technological superiority indicated some sort
of larger racial superiority. A variety of
pseudo-scientific theories were developed to
explain the power differential between the
industrial West and the pre-industrial East
and South.
Social Darwinism was a misapplication of
Charles Darwin’s theories of evolution into
the context of society. Allowing many to
view “survival of the fittest” as justification for
the destruction or domination of weaker
societies, arguing that competition among
white nations and people of color was a
natural occurrence and the victors should not
feel guilty. Roosevelt could be considered a
social darwinist in international affairs.
5. Roosevelt Takes on the Trusts
-Wanted to find a way to regulate big business without destroying economic
efficiency
-Fight for control of Burlington railroad between 3 men E.H. Harriman, James
J Hill, JP Morgan/ the three merged and created a giant holding company
(Northern Securities.) The purpose of the new company was to acquire stock
in two railroads, the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern.
-Roosevelt said Northern Securities went against the Sherman Antitrust Act
-Northern Securities Vs. United States- Supreme Court ruled (5 to 4) the
company violated the Sherman Antitrust Act and it was forced to disolve.
Roosevelt was praised as Trust Buster by the newspapers.
6. The Coal Strike of 1902
-United Mine Workers called a strike of
miners who dug for hard coal. About
150,000 workers walked out of Eastern
Pennsylvanian mines to gain shorter
workdays, higher wages and
recognition of their union.
-Roosevelt urged the union and owners
to accept arbitration/ The union agreed/
The owners did not
-Furious Roosevelt threatened to send
the army to work the mines/the owners
gave into arbitration
Shenandoah, Pennsylvania. John Mitchell, President of the
UMWA (United Mine Workers of America), arriving in the
coal town during the Anthracite coal strike of 1902. His open
four-horse carriage is surrounded by a crowd of boys.
7. The Bureau of Corporations
-Roosevelt believed best way to keep big business from abusing power was through
knowledge and publicity of facts
-The Bureau of Corporations, predecessor to the Federal Trade Commission, was
created as an investigatory agency within the Department of Commerce and Labor in
the United States. The Bureau and the Department were created by Congress on
February 14, 1903. The task of the Bureau of Corporations was to gather information
about companies in order to determine if they were acting in the public interest. The
Bureau had the power to inspect the books of all companies doing business across
state lines (interstate commerce).
-Gentlemen’s agreement- U.S. Steel would make account records public in exchange
the Bureau would advise company privately for wrong doings
8. In this cartoon, from Puck April 20, 1904, the view is that investigations by the federal government will "let the air out" of
the trusts. Ideas about curbing business practices through investigation and publicity went well back into the 19th century.
9. Congress Follows
-1906- Roosevelt pushed for the
Hepburn Act- meant to strengthen the
ICC (interstate commerce commission)
-Hepburn act- gave ICC power to set
railroad rates/ at first railroad
companies were angry but soon
realized they could work with ICC to
bring down competition
10. Social Welfare Action
-Samuel Hopkins Adams- muckraker. In 1905, he
moved to Collier's Weekly, where he wrote a series
of 11 searing and sensational articles on “The Great
American Fraud,” the patent medicine business. He
exposed many of the false and even ridiculous
claims made by patent medicine manufacturers and
showed that these medicines frequently harmed
rather than helped those who took them. He
exposed many companies that marketed potions
which “cured” many diseases, but they really were
just alcohol or contained harmful drugs like cocaine
or opiates.
11.
12. 1906- Upton Sinclair wrote “The Jungle” detailing appalling conditions in the
meatpacking industry.
-Meat inspection Act- 1906- ensures that meat and meat products are slaughtered
and processed under strictly regulated sanitary conditions and requires federal
inspection of meat sold.
-Pure Food and Drug Act- 1906-prohibited manufacture, sale, or shipment of impure
or falsely labeled food and drugs and led to creation of Food and Drug Administration.
13. Conservation
-Noticing that America’s resources were being used up at an alarming rate
Roosevelt urged America to conserve these resources
-Roosevelt was an outdoor enthusiast
- “will only work with the man that develops the country not the man that skins the
land”
-Teddy bear was named after Teddy Roosevelt/ Roosevelt refused to kill a
defenseless bear cub on a hunting trip
14. Land Development in the West
-Newlands Reclamation Act- Authorized the use of federal funds from public land
sales for irrigation and land development projects
-Made it to where the federal government developed the West
15. Gifford Pinchot
-Appointed by Roosevelt as the first head of the United States Forest service.
-Scientific standards should be applied to landscaped to benefit the most people
-Roosevelt and Pinchot regulations controlling lumbering on federal lands
“Unless we practice conservation, those
who come after us will have to pay the
price of misery, degradation, and failure
for the progress and prosperity of our
day.” Gifford Pinchot
16. Roosevelt’s legacy
-Roosevelt added over 100 million acres into protected national forests. As
President from 1901 to 1909, he signed legislation establishing five new national
parks: Crater Lake, Oregon; Wind Cave, South Dakota; Sullys Hill, North Dakota
(later re-designated a game preserve); Mesa Verde, Colorado; and Platt,
Oklahoma (now part of Chickasaw National Recreation Area). However another
Roosevelt enactment had a broader effect: the Antiquities Act of June 8, 1906.
The Antiquities Act enabled President Roosevelt and succeeding Presidents to
proclaim historic landmarks, historic or prehistoric structures, and other objects
of historic or scientific interest in federal ownership as national monuments.
-Changed the role of federal government/ people began to look to federal
government to solve issues
-Executive branch expanded power under Roosevelt’s presidency
