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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
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

An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
2. GENRE
The thriller genre of this film is popular with young adults and teenagers.
The dark mystery of this film helps teenagers relate more as within this age
group, they are most likely to feel much more down and topics that
challenge ideas within the society helps teenagers relate better as they
usually see the negative side of society especially since teenagers are
stereotypically bad and selfish people.
The surprise that the audience experience within this film is due to the
mystery of real theories that people are discussing amongst themselves.
Those that know about it, will most likely become extremely interested in
the film as they know about it and may lead them to believe in it. Many will
become aware of this and will react by having further research about this
theory and this encourages them to create their own theories about this or
other issues and topics within society.
3. MUSIC
The dark sinister music that is played throughout the opening of this film, will
make the audience anticipate the worst possible thing that could happen to
the character.
The high pitched synthesiser creates a distorted feel which makes the
audience intrigued almost as though they’re hypnotised as the repetitive
music plays making them feel as though they are in a never ending cycle that
they find it hard to escape from.
This music also helps the audience feel how the character feel, down,
depressed and scared. This way the audience are able to easily put
themselves in her shoes.
4. PRODUCTION COMPANY
Scorpio Productions mostly attracts a younger audience as the films the
produce are mostly, thrillers, and teenage dramas. Due to this the audience
will already have trust in the production company which means they will
most likely give this film a chance as they are aware that it will appeal to
their age group and preferences.
Scorpio Productions is also known for producing films that are different to
any other. They usually focus on real matters and opinions that the younger
generation will have and use the films to portray them and allow their views
to be seen by everyone else.
This production company is also known to produce films that are dominated
by teenage and young adult actors which makes the audience believe them
more as they can relate much better to the story.
5. DISTRIBUTOR
White Lantern Films is a UK independent film company that produces and
distributes films. The main genres that they distribute are psychological thrillers
such as K- Shop.
This will be popular with the target audience as they favour thrillers and rather
than waiting for a new thriller to release by bigger distributors, they will search
for others especially independent. Many teenagers watch White Lantern Films
as they are different and not the typical thrillers that people have had enough
of.
As this films is a different thriller, it will be increasingly popular with teenagers
seeing as they will give this film a chance seeing as they trust in this distributor
and their choice in films to distribute.
6. DIRECTOR AND STARING ACTORS
The director for this film is Dan Pringle. I chose him because he is not very well known
hence it will work in favour of the low budget film. However, the film he directed K-
shop, was popular amongst thriller fanatics as it was a unique film so the audience that
loved that film will know they can enjoy this film too as the thriller genre is very evident
in a different way than most are.
nagers, he will bring enough publicity for the film and the audience will find it intriguing to see how
7. REPRESENTATION
The way that I was able to attract my audience is due to the representation of
them within the film. Due to the use of the familiar setting of London, there is a
curiosity for the audience as they feel like they have some involvement with the
film because of their age and where they live.
As teenage Londoners are not proportionally represented within films, this will
stand out as it is different and the audience do not feel as though they are
being forgotten. Usually teenagers are shown to be white and living in fancy
homes in America, which makes teenagers lose interest as they know that is
not how they all live, a film such as this that show the real side and lifestyle of a
teenager is much more appealing to them.
8. VISUAL
The low angle shot on the floor shows that the character
is very important. This helps establish to the audience
the power that a teenager has as her feet are only seen
within the frame.
However in this shot, the audience may believe that this
character is a villain as her feet are within the centre of
the frame, which is unusual in a thriller.
The over the shoulder angle helps the audience
focus on the poster and see what the character
is looking at. This helps them become the
character themselves as they need to read the
contradictory statement.
