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.

3. Nature of Quantitative Analysis
• Modern analytical chemistry is concerned with the
– Detection
– identification
– measurement of the chemical composition
using existing instrumental techniques, and the
development or application of new techniques and
instruments.
• It is a quantitative science - desired result is
always numeric.
4. • Quantitative results are obtained using devices or
instruments that allow us to determine the
concentration of a chemical in a sample from an
observable signal.
• There is always some variation in that signal / value
measured over time due to noise and / or drift
within the instrument.
5. • We also need to calibrate the response as a
function of analyte concentration in order to
obtain meaningful quantitative data.
• As a result, there is always an error, a deviation
from the true value, inherent in that
measurement.
• One of the uses of statistics in analytical
chemistry is therefore to provide an estimate of
the likely value of that error; in other words, to
establish the uncertainty associated with the
measurement.
6. When using an analytical method we make
three separate evaluations of experimental
error.
1. Before beginning an analysis we evaluate potential
sources of errors to ensure that they will not
adversely effect our results.
2. During the analysis we monitor our measurements
to ensure that errors remain acceptable.
3. At the end of the analysis we evaluate the quality
of the measurements and results, comparing them
to our original design criteria.
7. ERROR
• Any measurement made with a measuring
device is approximate.
• If you measure the same object two different
times, the two measurements may not be
exactly the same.
• The difference between two measurements is
called a variation in the measurements. Another
word for this variation - or uncertainty in
measurement - is "error."
• This "error" is not the same as a "mistake."
8. • It does not mean that you got the wrong
answer. The error in measurement is a
mathematical way to show the uncertainty in
the measurement.
• It is the difference between the result of the
measurement and the true value of what you
were measuring.
Error = True value ~ Measured value
9. Absolute and Relative Errors
• Error in measurement may be represented by
the actual amount of error, or by a ratio
comparing the error to the size of the
measurement (Relative error)
• The absolute error of the measurement shows
how large the error actually is, while the relative
error of the measurement shows how large the
error is in relation to the correct value.
10. • Absolute errors do not always give an indication of
how important the error may be.
If you are measuring a football field and the
absolute error is 1 cm, the error is virtually irrelevant.
• But, if you are measuring a small machine part (<
3cm), an absolute error of 1 cm is very significant.
While both situations show an absolute error of 1 cm.,
the relevance of the error is very different. For this
reason, it is more useful to express error as a relative
error.
11. Types of Errors
Depending on the origin of errors they can be
classified in to
1. Gross errors
2. Systematic / Determinate errors
3. Random / Indeterminate errors
12. Gross Errors
• This category of errors includes all the human
mistakes while reading, recording and the
readings.
• Mistakes in calculating the errors also come
under this.
13. Reasons for Gross Errors
– Incompetency of the observer
• Observer may not be knowing all the technical details of the
measurement.
– Carelessness
• The observer may not be measuring the value with full attention.
For example the students recording a value in lab while chatting
with their batch mates.
• Spilling of solutions
• Contaminations
• Arithmetic errors
– Transposition
• Data transposition occurs to all many times. Checking and
rechecking before recording can avoid this error
Ex Recording 1.1125 as 1.1215
14. How to reduce gross errors
• Proper care should be taken in reading,
recording the data. Also calculation of error
should be done accurately.
• By increasing the number of experimenters
we can reduce the gross errors.
• If each experimenter takes different reading
at different points, then by taking average of
more readings we can reduce the gross
errors.
15. Systematic / Determinate Errors
• The constant error that occurs no matter how
many times the measurement is done and
averages are taken.
• This error has a definite value and sign (+/-).
• Systematic errors cause a bias in
measurements.
• Bias is a positive or negative deviation of all
the measured values from the true value.
17. Causes of systematic errors
• Instrument errors
• Method errors
• Personal errors
18. Instrument errors
• Failure to calibrate
• Degradation of parts in the
instrument
• Power fluctuations
• Variation in temperature
• Can be corrected by
calibration or proper
instrumentation
maintenance..
19. Method errors
• The method used is having an inherent problem
– Due to non-ideal physical or chemical behavior
– Completeness and speed of reaction
– Interfering side reactions
– Sampling problems
• Can be corrected with proper method
development.
• Ex: We take concentration of solutions instead
of activities in many calculations.
• End point – Equivalence point
20. Personal errors
• This type of error occurs where
measurements
– require judgment
– result from prejudice
– color acuity problems
• Can be minimized or eliminated with proper
training and experience.
22. Minimization of systematic errors
• Calibration of instruments and apparatus.
• Performing duplicate runs simultaneously.
• Performing a blank run.
• Performing control runs ( with standards).
• Measurements by independent methods.
• Method of standard addition.
• Method of internal standard.
25. Random Errors
• Any repeated measurement gives slightly
differing values, even when done with utmost
care and under similar conditions.
• This error stems from unpredictable inaccuracies
in each step of the measurement.
• It is not having a fixed value or sign – known as
indeterminate error.
• They occur with statistical distribution and
treated by statistical methods.
27. Definition of Some Statistical Terms
• True value – The actual value to be got
• Measured value – the value got in a trail
• Error = True value ± measured value
• Relative error = Error / True value
• % error = Relative error X 100
28. Measures of Central Tendency
• Mean – its types
– Mean or Arithmetic mean is the average of a set
of data.
– Population Mean / Limiting Mean – is the
arithmetic average of a set of data where the
number of data (population) is nearing ∞
29. Sample mean / Arithmetic mean
• Simple average
• When you know the number of sample is
finite.
• Example arithmetic mean of 1,2,3,4,5 is 3
1+2+3+4+5 = 15
15/5 = 3
30. Population Mean
The formula to find the population mean is
μ = (Σ * X)/ N
where:
Σ means “the sum of.”
X = all the individual items in the group.
N = the number of items in the group.
31. Example
• All 57 residents in a nursing home were
surveyed to see how many times a day they
eat meals. 1 meal (2 people), 2 meals (7
people),3 meals (28 people),4 meals (12
people),5 meals (8 people).What is the
population mean for the number of meals
eaten per day?
33. • Figuring out the population mean should feel
familiar. You’re just taking an average, using the
same formula you probably learned in basic
math (just with different notation).
• However, care must be taken to ensure that you
are calculating the mean for a population (the
whole group) and not a sample (part of the
group).
• The symbols for the two are different:
Population mean symbol = μ
Sample mean symbol = x̄
34. Median
• The median, is the middle value when we order our
data from the smallest to the largest value.
• When the data set includes an odd number of
entries, the median is the middle value.
• For an even number of entries, the median is the
average of the n/2 and the (n/2) + 1 values, where n
is the size of the data set.
35. Median
• Determine the median value of the following
data 1,3,1,8,5,4,3,9,5 ( n is odd)
1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 8, 9
• If n is even 1,3,1,8,5,4,3,9,5,7
1 1 3 3 4 5 5 7 8 9
Median = 4+5 / 2 = 4.5
36. Standard deviation & Variance
• Standard Deviation
– The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread out
numbers are.
– A quantity expressing by how much the members of a
group differ from the mean value for the group
– Its symbol is σ (the greek letter sigma)
– The formula is easy: it is the square root of
the Variance. So now you ask, "What is the Variance?"
• Variance
– The Variance is defined as:
– The average of the squared differences from the Mean.
37. Distribution of Errors
• Random errors are distributed normally i.e. it
follows normal distribution.
Where x – value measured
µ - Mean
σ - Standard deviation
39. Normal distribution curve
•The Normal Distribution has:
mean = median = mode
•symmetric about the center
•50% of values less than the mean
and 50% greater than the mean
42. Precision and Accuracy
• Assume a titration experiment is done for 10 times.
The actual concentration is 0.1122 N
• Student-1 is getting – Accurate and Precise
•
• Student – 2 is getting – Precise but not accurate
