Hi this presentation is made originally by Gherm6 however I found out that it isn't that comprehensive so I added examples to elaborate the types of conflict.
This presentation is an introduction to characterization for my 6th graders. The slides are a combination of my work and the work of other teachers online. So i don't want to take all the credit. Hope it helps.

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.

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.

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.

7. What makes Chinese Science Fiction Chinese?
• SF’s creative aspirations—complex machinery, new modes of transport,
global travel, space exploration—are seen as fantasies and dreams of
modernity, and thus woven into the construction of a “Chinese Dream”
• SF fueled by modernization, industrialization, modern capitalism,
and globalization
• Long history of SF in China - born at the turn of the 20th century when
Chinese intellectuals were fascinated by Western science and
technology. Changing relationship to science and technology.
• As a speculative genre of literature, SF allows writers of the younger
generation to engage with social and economic contradictions around
them.
8. History of Chinese SF (Early 20th Century)
• Born at turn of 20th century—intellectuals fascinated by
Western science and technology
• At first, Chinese SF served practical and instrumentalist
purposes. Seen as tools of propaganda for building a
strong China
• Early works seen as literary tools for “improving thinking and
assisting culture,” writes Lu Xun.
• In 1900, a Chinese translation of Jules Verne’s Around the
World in Eighty Days was published. First piece of foreign SF

fiction become a tool for popularizing science and
scientific knowledge.
• Main audience was children. SF became a branch of socialist
literature influenced by the SF in Soviet Union

realism of SF was infused with revolutionary idealism
• This period eventually led to the Cultural Revolution in China,
which left little space for literature of any kind, especially SF
literature that bore resemblance to Western capitalism
10. History of Chinese SF (1970s and 1980s)
• 1970s and 1980s—the influence of Western SF became
more felt
• Led to debates about whether SF was more about
“science” or “fiction,” with the literary camp winning out
• SF finally started to develop in speculative directions. No
longer had to serve the goal of popularizing science
• SF writers started to develop a modern mode of literary
expression.
11. “Science fiction is the byproduct of the process of
gradual disenchantment with science. The words
create a certain vision of science for the reader. The
vision can be positive or full of suspicion and criticism
—it depends on the age we live in. Contemporary
China is a society in the transition stage when old
illusions have collapsed but new illusions have not yet
taken their place; this is the fundamental cause of the
rips and divisions, the confusion and chaos.”
– Chen Quifan
12. History of Chinese SF (Contemporary Era)
• Chinese SF experienced a renaissance between 1990s and the
present
• SF literary magazines emerged. Birth of new ideas, new voices, and
more diverse group of writers (different ages, regions, professional
backgrounds, social class, ideology, cultural identity, etc.)
• Chinese SF becomes more similar to World SF - starts to confront
complex social reality
• Optimism toward science has vanished; futures are often dark and
unsettling. Writers no longer believe that world’s problems can be
solved by science and technology.
14. “Science fiction is a literature of possibilities. The universe
we live in is also one of countless possibilities.” -Liu Cixin
15. Why Science Fiction?
• Opens new perspectives and
new forms of seeing, thinking,
feeling, and imagining
• Offers nuanced understanding
of science and technology: their
benefits, implications,
consequences
• Uses alienation, displacement,
and irony to critique realities and
imagine alternatives
• The power of creating models
on different scales. Combines
and bridges scales: local/global,
micro/macro, human/nonhuman
