This document provides information on comparatives and superlatives in English. It outlines four rules for forming comparatives and adjectives. Rule 1 is for one-syllable adjectives which add -er. Rule 2 is for two-syllable adjectives ending in y, which add -ier. Rule 3 uses "more" plus the base adjective. Rule 4 covers irregular adjectives like "good." Superlatives also have four rules, with one-syllable adjectives taking -est, two-syllable adjectives in y taking -iest, and two-plus syllable adjectives using "most." It provides examples and exercises for students to practice the forms.

O Palco Principal e o seu percurso na Web 2.0João Carvalho
Intervenção de João Carvalho, director da empresa Palco Principal, na Universidade Portucalense, no contexto de um seminário denominado "O Palco Principal e o seu percurso na Web 2.0".
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.

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.
