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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. INTRODUCTION
Fire:
• The self-sustaining process of rapid oxidation of a fuel which produces heat and
light.
• Fire is an exothermic chemical reaction between oxygen and fuel at certain
temperature.
FIRE SIGNS
3
4. FIRE TRIANGLE
• There are four elements that must be present for a fire to exist.
• There must be oxygen to sustain combustion, heat to raise the material to its
ignition temperature, fuel to support the combustion and a chemical reaction
between the other three elements.
• Remove any one of the four elements to extinguish the fire.
• The concept of fire protection is based upon keeping these four elements
separate.
4
5. SOURCES OF FIRE HAZARDS
Solid fuels: wood, fabrics, synthetic materials, papers, packaging materials etc.
Liquid fuels:
1. Flammable liquid : ex: nitro phenol, ammonium nitrate, potassium chlorate,
paint & oil soaked rags, cotton or cellulose soaked with sulphuric acid etc.
2. Heat utilization equipment's
3. Chemical process equipment's
4. Lighting
5. Self combustible chemicals
6. Oven & furnace
7. Reactors 5
6. CAUSES
Improper storage of flammable oils, grease & fluids, combustible wastes etc.
Smoking by employees
Defective heating equipment, electrical equipment & wiring.
Explosive gas leakage
Ignition of gas vapours or combustible dust
Inadequate of electric motors
Sparking in electric wires and equipment
6
7. Types of Fires:
Class A - Ordinary materials such as paper, wood, cloth
Class B - Flammable liquids or Combustible liquids such as gasoline, paint,
propane, kerosene
Class C - Electrical equipment fires, appliances, switches, panels
Class D - Certain metals such as magnesium, sodium, potassium, titanium, and
aluminium.
Class K - Fires involving commercial cooking appliances with vegetable oils,
animal oils or fats at high temperatures.

8. Fire Protection and Prevention
Fire protection includes procedures for preventing, detecting, and
extinguishing fire.
The procedures in these three areas of fire prevention aim to protect
employees and property and to assure the continuity of a plant’s operations.
To accomplish these goals, it is necessary to develop a plant wide fire
protection program
8
9. Inspections
Set up a system of periodic fire inspections for every operation. Some buildings, operations,
and processes require daily inspection, while others can be inspected weekly, monthly, or at
other intervals.
Buildings that are well designed and provided with protective devices and construction
elements intended to act as fire safety features still need a periodic, detailed inspection
program.
In some establishments or plants, the safety and health committee locates and reports fire
hazards.
In large plants, this job is handled by a special subcommittee of the safety committee or by a
person trained to manage fire risk.
The inspector, fire chief, or other individual from the plant who is in charge of fire
prevention and fire protection should establish inspection schedules, determine the
direction-finding of reports, and have a complete list of all items to be inspected.
9
10. 10
Inspection of fire equipment should cover the following items:
o control valves on piping that supplies water for fire protection
o hydrants
o fire pumps
o hose houses and associated equipment
o sprinkler system water supplies including tanks
o automatic sprinkler systems
o special type of protection
o portable fire extinguishers
o fire doors, exits
o alarm and communication systems and routines
o communication to fire department
11. DETECTION OF FIRE HAZARDS
Many automatic fire detection systems are used today in industry.
Some include
Thermal expansion detectors,
Heat sensitive insulation,
Photoelectric fires,
Ionization or radiation sensors and
Ultraviolet or I .R detectors.
These sound an alarm through which fire flames are detected
11
12. PREVENTION OF FIRE HAZARDS
Well planned design and layout
Proper ventilated systems
Chemical data sheets
Proper training of personnel
Proper maintenance of surroundings
use of fire extinguishers, alarms ,sensors, detectors
Fire fighting equipment
Sprinkler systems 12
14. FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT'S
• Standpipe and hose systems
• Fire alarm
• Sprinklers
• Fire Extinguisher
1. Water
2. Carbon dioxide
3. ABC dry powder
4. Dry powder
5. Foam Based extinguisher
6. Clean agent fire extinguisher
7. Other extinguisher
14
15. STANDPIPE AND HOSE SYSTEMS
• Standpipe systems consist of piping, valves, hose connections,
and nozzles to provide streams of water for fire suppression.
I. Wet system
II. Dry system
15
16. 37
I. WET SYSTEM
• A "wet" standpipe is filled with water and is pressurized at all times.
• Whenever the system is activated, water will charge into the connected hose immediately.
• Wet standpipes can be used by building occupants.
16
17. 38
II. DRY SYSTEM
• A “Dry” standpipe is NOT filled with water.
• The intakes of dry standpipes are usually located near a road or driveway so that a
fire engine can supply water to the system.
• This system can be used only by firefighters.
• Regulations in many countries require that standpipe systems be charged by hoses
from two
different pump trucks, which can be accomplished by using both sides of a Siamese
connection.
17
18. FIRE ALARM
• It is a set of equipment working together to detect and alert people through visual and
audio appliances when smoke or fire is present
• Active from smoke, heat detector, water flow sensors which are automatic or from
manual fire alarm pull station
18
19. 39
AUTOMATIC SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
• Automatic sprinkler systems are integrated fire suppression systems consisting of a water
supply and a network of pipes, sprinkler heads, and other components to provide automatic
fire suppression in areasof abuilding.
• This system is the most effective for suppressing a Class A fires in buildings containing
ordinary
combustible materials, suchaswood, paper, and plastics.
• The design and installation of the system are strictly regulated by insurance companies and
in accordance with fire codes.
19
20. SPRINKLERS
• Themajor component of an automatic sprinkler systemis the sprinkler, which discharge
water in specific pattern for extinguishing or controllingafire.
• Asprinkler head consists of three majorcomponents:
1. Nozzle
2. Detector: Fusible link type / Frangible bulb type
3. Water spray pattern deflector
20
21. DETECTORS
FUSIBLELINKTYPE:
• The fusible link type of heat detector is
constructed of a “eutectic alloy” which
melt at a specific temperature rather
than gradually softening. When the link
temperature reaches its melting point,
the link is pulled apart by the water
pressure and opens nozzle.
FRANGIBLE BULB TYPE:
• The frangible bulb type of detector
contains a glass bulb partially filled with
a liquid that expands with temperature.
At the rated temperature, the liquid will
shatter the bulb and open the nozzle.
21
22. TYPES OF SPRINKLERS
WETPIPE SYSTEM:
• Wet-pipe sprinkler systems employ automatic
sprinklers attached to a piping system
containing water and connected to a water
supply so that water discharges immediately
from sprinklers opened by a fire.
• This type is most reliable and simple.
• Only those sprinklers which have been
operated by heat over the fire will discharge
water.
DRYPIPE SYSTEM:
• Dry-pipe sprinkler systems employ
automatic sprinkler attached to a piping
system containing air or nitrogen
• When sprinklers are open by a fire, the gas
is released and the dry pipe valve is open by
the water pressure. The water then flows
into the piping system and discharges only
from those sprinklers which have been open
by heat over the fire. 22
23. FIRE EXTINGUISHER
• A Fire extinguisher is a device which can be used to
control a fire. Fire extinguishers can help remove the fire,
and may stop it from burning.
23
24. THINGS TO REMEMBER BEFORE INSTALLATION OF
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS.
• Brass Valve Chrome Plated Heavy duty
• BIS Approved
• CE Certified.
• Maintenance should be done as per IS 2190:2010
• Must Check the color band according to need.
• Extinguisher/ Equipments must be according to guidelines
given by concerned disaster authority.
24
25. TYPES OF FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
1. Water
2. Carbon dioxide
3. ABC type dry powder
4. Dry powder
5. Foam based extinguisher
6. Clean agent Fire extinguisher
7. Other extinguishers 25
26. 1. Water
• Water extinguishers are for Class A fires only.
• Extinguish effect: water extinguishes by absorbing the heat and so cooling the fire. It
has a greater cooling effect when applied as a fine spray or mist. There is also some
smothering effect from the steam generated by the application of a fine spray or mist.
Sprays may have surfactants added (these reduce surface tension and assist in forming
a uniform distribution) to aid the penetration.
• Limitations: do not use on fires involving liquid (oils, paints, cleaning fluids, etc.) or
Can not be used on electrical fires.
• The discharge stream could spread the flammable liquid in a Class B fire or could
create a shock hazard on a Class C fire.
• Color Band- Red
• Easy and No Maintenance and Service.
• Used in- Schools ,Theaters, Apartments, Office, Textile / Wood
Industry, Warehouses 26
27. 2.CARBON DIOXIDE
