Literary Devices and Terms
Literary devices are specific language techniques which writers use to create text
that is clear, interesting, and memorable.
Alliteration - repeated consonant sound at the beginning of words or within words;
used to establish mood and rhythm in a story; true alliteration has three words
beginning with the same sound (two words beginning with the same sound would
be called alliterative)
Examples: bucking bronco; miserable morning; Bed, Bath, and Beyond
Allusion - a reference in one story to a well-known character or event from another
story, history, or place
Examples: the rise of the baseball team from last place to first was a real
Cinderella story; at times teachers need the wisdom of Solomon to make
decisions
Ambiguity - when a single event or expression can mean two different things to two
different people
Example: When it is announced that another baby is on the way, Father remarks,
“That could create some problems.” He means problems with money, but his
young son thinks, “You’re right, dad! I don’t want to share my room and toys
with anybody!”
Analogy - comparing one thing to another very different thing in order to explain it
better
Examples: a school is like a garden, where children are lovingly raised and
cared for; the rabbit shot from its hole like a rocket; the confetti fell like snow in
a blizzard as the parade passed through the city streets (these three analogies are
all written as similes)
Aphorism - a brief statement expressing some truth as shown is a story; it can be a
moral, or proverb, or maxim.

Examples: Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched.
Everyone is afraid of something.
Don’t make a big fuss if someone isn’t like us.
Atmosphere - mood or feeling developed through descriptions of the setting and
senses (how things feel, taste, smell, sound, look)
Example: Camping in those woods, time went slow. The thick forest air just sat
on you, hot and wet like a wool blanket, while mosquitoes droned in your ears
and stung you on the back where you could never quite reach to smack them.
Caricature - exaggeration or distortion of a physical trait or behavior, to make a
character appear comic or ridiculous
Example: her nose was needle sharp, with nostrils as small and black as a
mouse’s eyes
Character - a person or player (it can also be an animal, an imaginary creature) in a
story; character can also be used as a word meaning “personal traits,” as in
“Write a paragraph about the character of the Big Bad Wolf.”
Circular Story - a story which begins and ends at the same place, usually following
a character through different adventures or events; although the character arrives
back where he/she started, he or she should now have a different perspective or
feeling based upon experiences
Example: A poor farmer tra ...

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.
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
