The document discusses systems theory as it relates to family therapy. It states that individuals are best understood by looking at their interactions within the entire family system, as symptoms serve a purpose for the family as a whole. It also notes that a change in one family member affects all other members, so the focus is on examining interaction patterns across the entire family system rather than blaming any single individual. The goal is for the entire family to participate together in finding solutions.

MONICA’S POST:
I used to think that culture was the values and beliefs of a group of people. But our text helps to understand what culture is. According to our text “culture is defined as the relatively specialized lifestyle of a group of people that is passed on from one generation to the next through communication not through genes” (Devito, J.A., 2016, Sec. 2.1). In order to understand culture we can look at values, beliefs, language, and their way of communicating. We must look at the differences from culture to culture such as is it individualistic or collectivist orientation, the power structure, masculinity and femininity, their tolerance for ambiguity, orientation and indulgence and restraint. (Devito, J.A., 2016). All of these factors influence communication. “One reason why culture is so important is that interpersonal competence is culture specific, what proves effective in one culture may prove ineffective in another” (Devito, J.A., 2016, Sec. 2.1). We may have certain attitudes about things based on the culture we were raised in. In order to communicate effectively these attitudes and beliefs must be set aside. We have to have an open mind and see things from others perspectives. I was raised in a family that instilled good morals and values in me, I am a spiritual person not a religious one and I find all religions have one thing in common putting others needs before our own. I see everyone as my equal and have a positive outlook on life. I am mindful and considerate of others perspectives.
Cultural orientation is important for interpersonal communication when working as a human service professional for many reasons. First what is effective in one culture may be ineffective in another. Understanding the values that other cultures hold helps to promote effective communication. Understanding the religious beliefs of others is beneficial as well. For example if I was working with a client with SUD who was an Atheist and told them to look into spirituality or religion to help them find sobriety this might be offensive to them. So knowing their religious beliefs would be helpful in communicating with this client. The more we understand other cultures the better we will be at interpersonal communication with those individuals.

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.

2. To understand this better,
consider the example of a
mobile.
When you move any one piece
of a mobile, all the other pieces
move too! They do not exist in
isolation from one another, and
“movement” in any one part of
the “system” will affect all the rest
of the parts of the system.
3. Individuals – are best understood through
assessing the interactions within an entire family
Symptoms – are viewed as an expression of a
dysfunction within a family
Problematic behaviors –
› Serve a purpose for the family
› Are a function of the family’s inability to operate
productively
› Are symptomatic patterns handed down across
generations
A family – is an inter-actional unit and a
change in one member effects all members
4. Inclusion of all parts of the system rather than
being limited to the “identified patient”
Rather than blaming either “identified patient”
or the family, the entire family has an
opportunity (1) to examine the multiple
perspectives and interactional patterns that
characterize the unit and (2) participate in
finding solutions.
Limitations
lose sight of the individual by focusing on the
broader system
6. Multicultural Counseling and Theory (MCT)
› Therapists strive to liberate clients from personal, social and
economic oppression.
› Clients are liberated from self-blame and shown how their problems
often exist in a social context.
› Independence is basic to philosophy and action in MCT.
Multicultural Counseling and Theory (MCT) as Metatheory
› MCT recognizes culture as an internalized, subjective perspective
formed against a backdrop of contrasting cultural backgrounds.
› Points out the importance in seeing the individual in context.
› It is concerned with cultural intentionality.
› Traditional theories are modified in ways that show respect for
human diversity.
