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.

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.

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 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.

4. Child is Treasure of our Society …
Child is a pylon of our society. They are
future of any developing as well as
developed country, so literally they are
treasure of society.
5. During the Industrial Revolution,
children as young as four were
employed in production factories with
dangerous, and often fatal, working
conditions. The children of the poor
were expected to help towards the
family budget, often working long hours
in dangerous jobs and low wages. In
England and Scotland in 1788, two-
thirds of the workers in 143 water-
powered cotton mills were described
as children.
By 1900, there were 1.7 million child
labourers reported in American industry
under the age of fifteen. The number of
children under the age of 15 who
worked in industrial jobs for wages
climbed to 2 million in 1910.
6. Who is child labour?
ILO defines child labour as :
“child labour means work done by
children under fifteen. Exception is
made of work done by children with
their parents at home is so far an aid in
the latter’s work is concerned and child
is not deprived of the possibility of
going to school”
7. Who is child labour?
Convention on Right of the child under
Article 32 of UN convention Define
child labour as:
“ any economic exploitation or the work
that is likely to be hazardous or which
interferes with the child’s education or
is harmful to the child’s health or
physical, mental, spiritual, moral or
social development ”
8. Way back in 1979, Government formed the first committee called Gurupadaswamy
Committee to study the issue of child labour and to suggest measures to tackle it
In consonance with the above approach, a National Policy on Child Labour was formulated
in 1987.
The Action Plan outlined in the Policy for tackling this problem is as follows:
Legislative Action Plan for strict enforcement of Child Labour Act and other labour laws to
ensure that children are not employed in hazardous employments.
Focusing of General Developmental Programmes for Benefiting Child Labour - This
action plan emphasizes the need to cover these children and their families also under various
poverty alleviation and employment generation schemes of the Government.
Project Based Plan of Action: Envisages starting of projects in areas of high
concentration of child labour. Pursuant to this, in 1988, the National Child Labour Project
(NCLP) Scheme was launched in 9 districts of high child labour endemicity in the country.
9. Did You Know
India has the highest number of child labourers
in the world
According to the National Sample Survey
Organisation, nearly 16.4 million Indian
children aged 5-15 are engaged in various
works
As per ILO 90% of child labourers are
employed in Agriculture Sector alone
10. Child labor in India is a human right issue
for the whole world. It is a serious and
extensive problem, with many children
under the age of fourteen working in
carpet making factories, glass blowing
units and making fireworks with bare little
hands. According to the statistics given by
Indian government there are 20 million
child laborers in the country, while other
agencies claim that it is 50 million.
SITUATION IN INDIA
11. OVER POPULATION: Limited resources and
more mouths to feed
ILLITERACY : Illiterate parents do not realize
the need for a proper physical, emotional
and cognitive development of a child.
POVERTY: Many a time poverty forces
parents to send their children to
hazardous jobs.
URBANIZATION:MNC's and export
industries in the developing world employ
child workers.
UNEMPLOYMENT OF ELDERS: Elders often find
it difficult to get jobs. The industrialists
and factory owners find it profitable to
employ children.
12. Is all work is bad for
children?
Some child workers
themselves think that illegal
work should not be
considered in the definition
of "child labor." The reason:
These child workers would
like to be respected for their
legal work, because they
feel they have no other
choice but to work.
On the outskirts of Dhaka, children heat and
mix rubber in a barrel at a balloon factory.
13. A young Pakistani girl carries a load of
wool down a street in a poor section of
Peshawar. Pakistan has laws that limit
child labor, but the laws are often
ignored. An estimated 11 million
children work in Pakistan's factories.
A boy works in a tea stall in a
small village in Nepal. Nepal
is one of the world's poorest
countries, forcing huge
numbers of children to do
hard labor. For a majority of
children in Nepal, education
is a luxury.
14. Sakina, 9, and Javed,
6, work on a carpet
loom at a small
workshop in Kabul.
Afghanistan's deep
poverty forces many
children to work in
adult jobs.
A young Burmese boy climbs
on top of piles of teak wood in
a government-run lumberyard
in Pyin Ma Bin. The boy's job
is to label the teak wood. The
wood is common in Myanmar
and is in high demand in
Japan and most of Asia.
15. This 9-year-old girl used
to work long hours
weaving rugs in a carpet
factory. Today, she is
enrolled in a Rugmark
school in India. Rugmark
is an organization
working to end child labor
and provide educational
opportunities for children.
For child laborers all over
the world, education is
the ticket to a better
future.
18. Sivakasi in Tamil Nadu state,
about 45,000-50,000 children
working in the fireworks industry
Children earn about 15-18 rupees a
day on piece-rates
When an inspector visits a factory,
child workers are bundled into
store-rooms and sheds
When asked if the long hours
derived her of the pleasures of
childhood, 12-year-old Kavitha
gave a resigned look.
When asked if she would like to
go to school like other girls, she
shot back: "Who will feed me,
then?"
19. Beedi Industry
Over 1.7 million children work
as laborers in India’s beedi-
rolling industry.
Children are engaged as their
nimble fingers are more adept at
rolling beedis.
Children are made to work up to
14 hours a day with no breaks or
holidays.
Earning is as little as Rs.30 per
1,000 beedis on an average and
the children hardly get anything.
Suffer from tuberculosis,
postural and eye problems,
anemia, lung and skin diseases.
20. Some times children are abandoned
by their parents or sold to factory
owners
70-80% of the 8,000 to 50,000
children work in the glass industry
in Ferozabad.
The two hazardous types of furnaces
used are the Pot furnaces the Tank
furnaces
One of the most dangerous
industries, where many deaths and
mishaps occur on a regular basis,
makes it imperative for the
employers to hire mafia gangs to
hush up the occurrence of such
incidents.
21. Carpet Industry
300,000 children employed in
this industry.
Low wages and docile
acceptance.
Work for 10-16 hours a day in
terrible conditions.
Vast majority of migrant child
workers sleep alongside of
their loom, further inviting
sickness and poor health.
Eyesight is damaged and lung
diseases are common as a
result of the dust and fluff
from the wool.

infections.
Twist thread injuring their fingers .
24. Why is it a Form of Child Labor?
No Bar of Age Limit
More than 12 hours of work
Education Suffers
Parent’s force their children to go for talent search
programmes
25. The programmes in question are
'Chotta Packet Bada Dhamaka' and
'Maayka' on ZEE TV, 'Chotte Ustad',
'Balika Vadhu', 'Jai Krishna' and
'Utaran' on Colors
Producers of nine Indian television

33. Child labour has been among and with us in the very
society we live in. But we have rarely paid heed to
them. And we have tried to look at them we have
turned our back because we have been guilty at the
heart somewhere..
The question is not–”Who is to be held responsible for
the situation ?”; Decades have been lost over it and yet
no fruitful step has yielded out, the question should be
“Are we ready to change their lives for the better?” ,if
not then it is high time for all of us to reach out our
helping hands to them and get them out of this inferno
at the earliest, lest our future is CONDEMNED………
34. It’s up to us all..
It’s the ILO
It’s Member States
It’s Workers
It’s Employers
It’s NGOs
And it’s us – you and me.
Together we can reach the goal – an end to
child labour in our time
