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.

5 very favorable
8. For the investor considering the purchase of shares in the
company, the return they will earn is the key financial factor
but an overall evaluation of the company’s performance and
position is also important to get a better picture of how well
the company is actually doing.
ROE in 2006 is 26%. Whether or not this is attractive depends
on the perceived riskiness of this investment and other
alternatives available but this return is certainly more
attractive than current bank interest rates.
ROE has decreased by 4% but the company’s ROE at 26% is
still better than the industry average of 20%
Riskiness of business is being reduced by the significant
repayment of loan in 2006.
9. Profitability
◦ The NP% and ROA ratios show a small downward trend in %
over the 2 year period. ROE% ratio show a more significant
decrease but is still better than the industry average.
◦ Gross Profit Margin is slightly unfavourable at about 2.3%
below the industry benchmark of 25%.
◦ The horizontal analysis information show that Sales have
increased by 20%. However operating costs have increased
by 34%.
Asset Management
◦ IT has gone down slightly from 5.8 to 5.58 times.
◦ IT is still close to the industry benchmark of 6 times.
◦ AT has increased showing more sales being generated from
asset usage
10. Liquidity
◦ Current ratios of 1.78:1 (2005) and 1.70: 1 are at
above acceptable levels but below ideal level.
◦ Quick ratios appear more of a concern being
below acceptable levels in both years and even
more so in 2006 (0.69:1).
◦ Raises some concerns over the liquidity of the
business and inventory management (although IT
ratio only shows a slight decline in 2006).
◦ Days Payable is a concern as there may be poor
debt payment management.
11. Financial Structure
◦ Although slightly higher than D/E industry benchmark
(0.67:1), business has become less risky due to the
significant repayment of loan in 2006.
◦ TIE is extremely good for the business at 39.74 times (well
above 5 the standard benchmark).
Cash flow situation
◦ Strong cash flow from operating activities (increased from
160,600 to 185,000).
◦ Spending under investing activities suggest more growth.
◦ Repayment of debt under financing activities imply
restructuring of business to have more equity funding
rather than debt funding.
12. Given:
1) the strong forecast for the industry (ie general prospects
looking good and world demand for plastic products
remaining strong),
2) the sales growth in this business,
3) acceptable ratios as they are quite close to the industry
averages,
4) good cash flows from operating activities and
5) favorable ROE, although it has decreased, it is still better
than the industry average ROE.
=> it is recommended that the investor purchase shares in
the Walker Ltd company.
