This group contends that in the story 1937 by Edwidge Danticat, the character Dee does not appreciate her mother Mama. They provide evidence from the story about Dee's attitude and conversations with Mama to support this. They also discuss how Dee's education led to her having a new perspective and looking down on her hometown. Quilts in the story and their historical significance relating to freedom are used as an example of cultural context. The group concludes that Dee is ungrateful and disrespectful to her family despite the sacrifices they made to support her education and higher standards.

The Characterization of Dee in Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use”
The choice of characters in a short story is essential as the characters help in bringing out the main thoughts of the author. The characters also play a role in the building of the story, and thus it is important for the author to select his or her fictional characters well so that they can serve the purpose they have been created for. The characters are usually characterized into minor and major depending on the role they have to play in the story. This is the case for the short story Everyday use where Alice has made use of several characters. Despite the fact that the story is being told from a third person point of view it is evident that Dee is the main character in this short story. It is important to note that an individual in a story is characterized by what he does, what other people say about him and finally what he says about himself. In the short story, everyday use by Alice walker Dee is characterized by what she does, what she says and what other people in the story say about her.
Dee is characterized by what she does. It is important in any story to pay close attention to the things done by a character as this will help us gain a better understanding of the character. Actions speak louder than words and thus the things that a certain individual does goes a long way in helping us determine the traits of that particular individual. Dee in the story is seen as a disregarding individual as she does not care about the welfare of the people around her. This is seen in the instance where their house catches fire, and Dee sees that her mother and her sister need help in putting out the fire but she does not take part in giving them a helping hand. In fact, Dee stands at a distance under the sweet gum tree (Walker, 87) and watches as the house burns down to ashes. Dee is an ambitious lady, and this is seen in her quest for education. Dee leaves her home and her heritage and goes to college to acquire education so that she could stand out from the rest of the people in the community who were uneducated including her sister Maggie. The education that Dee acquires makes her be in a position to overcome poverty and racial discrimination. Dee is also self-centered as she makes use of the life her and Maggie lived in to build her reputation. Dee comes home and takes photos at the old house and this he intends to use to show people how she came from a humble background, but she still managed to go to college and became successful.
Dee is further characterized by what she says. One trait that is seen from what Dee says is that she is ungrateful and disregarding of her heritage. Dee is ungrateful as she goes to college and pursues education and later comes back and start telling her mother how backward they are and how they don’t understand civilization..

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.

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.

2. OUR CLAIM:
• We contend that Mama does not feel appreciated by Dee
while others contend that Mama does feel appreciated by her
daughter Dee.
• The two interdisciplinary forms we used to support our claim
are education and culture.
3. EVIDENCE:
• Education:
• Demeanor and conversations she has with her
family are evidence of her lack of gratitude for her
mother and hometown.
• Mama describes a letter Dee wrote to her saying
that where ever they [Mama and Maggie]
“choose” to live, she will manage to see them but
will never bring her friends.
• These words are condescending to her mother and
are a clear example of Dee’s elitist attitude and
why Mama doesn’t feel appreciated by Dee when
Mama was the one who provided Dee with the
opportunity to get an education and a “better
life”.
4. EVIDENCE (CONTINUED)
• We believe that since Dee went away for college and
learned more about her culture and society’s standards,
she doesn’t think her hometown is “up to par”. If she were
to have stayed at home, and not have received a higher
education, we believe she wouldn’t have a demeaning
manner about her self.
• In the article posted on “Education Insider” written by Sara
Wright she explains the pros and cons of leaving home for
college. The list of pros include independence, a fresh start
and a new perspective. This “new perspective” is what
changed Dee’s attitude. Leaving for college introduces
you to people from all walks of life and expose you to new
ideas and cultural norms.
5. EVIDENCE (CONTINUED)
• Mama wishes that the relationship between her and Dee would
improve.
• She ultimately feels unappreciated by her own flesh and blood.
• She reminisces on a TV show, where the child unites with the
parent and thanks her for everything that they’ve done for her
and shows her appreciation.
• If Dee showed Mama gratitude, (which she doesn’t because
through conversations she’s had with her mother, you can tell
she’s overall ungrateful and doesn’t appreciate her mother,)
shows how much she appreciates her, and everything she has
done for her, would bring some kind of happiness to her life.
• Mama just wishes that Dee would show gratitude towards her.
6. CULTURE: QUILTS
• Throughout history quilts were made for many purposes
• To keep warm
• To decorate houses
• Political views
• To remember family and loved ones
7. • There are many different types but the one type of quilt that is
significant to U.S history is Freedom Quilts
• Freedom quilts were used to:
• Send signals to slaves to pack for a journey and to get ready to
escape
• Also to guide slaves to food, to point north, and t show danger
8. • Because Dee was educated she not only saw the quilts
as something to keep her warm but she saw the history
of the quilt and what it signified
9. CONCLUSION
• In conclusion Group 3 contends that Dee is ungrateful as well as
disrespectful to her for family for the sacrifices they have both made for
her
• Dee does not recognize that the only reason she is able to hold herself
to a higher standard is because of what her community did for her
• Holding oneself to a better standard is good, but not at the expense of
people who aren’t as fortunate
• Edwidge Danticat’s 1937 shows both the negatives and positives of
pursuing your goals at any means necessary
