Vegetarians are usually fitter than meat-eaters, and vegans are fittest of all! The Extreme Vegan Sporting Association (www.ExtremeVeganSports.org) was created to cater for their extreme sporting needs. This extremely popular presentation graphically illustrates extreme vegan sports such as mountaineering, rogaining, spelunking, naked jogging, skydiving, cliff-diving and yodelling. Special highlights include the recently successful Vegan 3 Peaks Challenge, a vegan descent of a suicidally dangerous Mallorcan cliff, and vegans throwing themselves out of aircraft to dance music. Be vegan and be inspired!

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.
