The document summarizes a conversation between Phong and his mother about how teenagers entertained themselves in the past compared to now. Phong's mother recalls that in her youth, teenagers engaged in more outdoor physical activities like playing sports, riding bikes, and flying kites in nature. They socialized face-to-face rather than online. This lifestyle kept them healthy without issues like obesity. They typically ate home-cooked meals rather than dining out or eating street food. Since few households had a TV, they entertained themselves by reading and keeping diaries of private thoughts rather than posting on social media.

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.
