The protagonist notices a mysterious person beckoning him outside the classroom during an English lesson. He follows a series of clues that lead him through different areas of the school. Eventually, he crawls through a cupboard and emerges to find the girl on the other side of a mirror. Reaching into his pocket, he finds the ring she was wearing. The short film uses camera techniques like close-ups and tracking shots to follow the protagonist's adventure. Lighting shifts from high key to low key to set the mood in different scenes.

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 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.
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.

Basic Storyline
Character in a classroom, in the middle of an English class reading
"Alice In Wonderland" - music playing through an iPod
Notices on someone keeps appearing outside the door beckoning

glimpses - through searching - crawls into a cupboard comes out a
door etc.
Eventually comes to a mirror- with the girl on the other side – her
hand pressed against it the other hand begins to bang on it
Dream? Reaches into pocket and the ring the girl was wearing was
in it.
3. Cinematography
Camera shots/Movement
Camera Shots
Camera Movements
First shot – extreme close up of a pencil
tapping – eventually to a medium close
up of his face/shoulders/desk
Long shot – when we see the mysterious
person
Medium long shot – sneaking out the
classroom
Tracking shot
Long shot/over the shoulder – looking
down the corridor
Panning shot
Close ups – notes
Series of close ups and profile shots of
the protagonist throughout the middle.
Low angle shot – of the teacher during
the penultimate frames
Extreme close up of the key at the end
Tracking, quick pans
4. Editing
Connection of the cuts
• Shot reverse shot – between mysterious
person and protagonist within the beginning
sequence – slow-ish pace
• Match on action – when searching, crawls into
a cupboard comes out a door etc.
• Jump cuts - as the search becomes more and
more intense – pace increases.
• Eye line match - notes, end key – return to
slow-ish pace.
5. Sound
Sound connections to the frames
• Beginning frames, asynchronous sound –
fuzzed sound from the iPod
• Primarily soundtrack based – reflective of the
action within the short film – the pace of the
of sound with increase as intensity of the
search increases.
• Sound bridge of the banging – diegetic sound
to the teacher.
6. Lighting
Both?
High Key Lighting
Used for most of the short film
in order to create the sense of
an illusion.
Naturalistic/ Low Key
During the classroom scenes = create

more complicated in the
sense of location, this is due
to the disappearing from one
place and into another –
therefore will be set in a
variety amount of places
around a school.
