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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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

2. INSTABILITY AFTER RANJIT SINGH
After Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s death in 1839, the
empire went through a period of political instability.
Soldiers emerged as the real power of the Lahore
Durbar
The Khalsa Army was no longer under the command
of the crown or its appointed commanders
In quick succession, various claimants to the throne
had bribed segments of the army to back their claim
The army expanded not only in numbers ,their
salaries also increased manifold since the time of
Ranjit Singh
3. POLITICIAN SOLDIERS
With their growing involvement in politics, the
soldiers had developed a bureaucratic
mechanism of their own.
Instead of exhibiting loyalty to their commanding
officers, they reported to Panches selected by
themselves.
These were soldiers appointed from within their
ranks to represent the grievances and concerns
of the soldiers.
The system was modeled on the panchayat
system from where the word Panches is derived.
4. BRITISH INTEREST
On the eastern bank of the Sutlej river, The British were
closely watching the developments in the Lahore Durbar
carefully. They had saw the assassination of one maharaja
after another.
They observed as powerful wazirs found themselves at the
mercy of the Khalsa soldiers.
But despite their size and the fact that they possessed the
latest technology, the British did not think much of the
Khalsa Army, it was referred as a mob by various British
officers,
The British believed that the increasing political role of the
soldiers had rendered them ineffective on the battlefield.
Thus, in the years following Ranjit Singh’s death, the
British started the process of militarizing Punjab.
5. SUCCESSORS OF MAHARAJA RANJIT SINGH
“After the death of Maharaja Ranjit Singh,
there was no one strong and competent
enough to succeed him. As a result , there
came a period of turbulence and anarchy
inseparable from a series of disputed
successions.
One weak ruler after another was deposed in
quick succession till 1843, when Duleep
Singh, the youngest son of the late
Maharaja, was crowned
6. SUCCESSORS OF MAHARAJA RANJIT SINGH FROM 1839 TO 1849
A.D.
Maharaja Kharak Singh (Elder son of Maharaja Ranjit
Singh, Accession June 27, 1839 Deposed October 8, 1839
Poisoned to death November 5, 1840

Maharaia Sher Singh. (Second son of Maharaja Ranjit
Singh) Occupied the throne November 9, 1840 (for 23 days)
Dethroned December 2, 1840

Ranjit Singh. September 15, 1843 *Deposed March
29, 1849 * Exiled December 21, 1849 Death (in
Paris-France) October 22, 1893
8. TURMOIL IN DURBAR
The ruling elite also knew they needed the support of the
soldiers to secure the throne .
After the freak death of Ranjit Singh’s talented grandson
Nau Nihal Singh in 1840,
Sher Singh, one of Ranjit Singh’s sons, started vying
for the throne.
However, in Lahore, Nau Nihal Singh’s mother Chand
Kaur had taken over the throne as regent, as she
claimed her daughter-in-law was pregnant with Nau
Nihal Singh’s son.
9. SHER SINGH TAKES CHARGE
To weaken the Lahore Durbar, Sher Singh
started bribing sections of the army.
And in 1841, he besieged the Lahore Fort,
capturing the regent and her supporters.
The Khalsa Army had already been bought.
But even with the rise of Sher Singh, the
Panches remained an important,
independent power house.
10. SUMMARY OF THE CAUSES
The anarchy in the Lahore
kingdom followed Maharaja Ranjit Singh's death,
led to a power struggle for dominance between the
court at Lahore and the ever-powerful and
increasingly local army.
Suspicions among the Sikh army arising from
English military campaigns to achieve the annexation
of Gwalior and Sindh in 1841 and the campaign
in Afghanistan in 1842.
An increase in the number of English
troops stationed near the border with the Lahore
kingdom.
11. The growing tension eventually led the
Khalsa to cross the Sutlej River into British
territory on 11 December 1845, hoping to
catch the latter unprepared. Members of the
Sikh court who wanted to curtail the Khalsa’s
growing power may have encouraged this
risky act of aggression
12. OUT BREAK
The growing tension eventually led the Khalsa
to cross the Sutlej River into British territory on
11 December 1845, hoping to catch the latter
unprepared.
Members of the Sikh court who wanted to curtail
the Khalsa’s growing power may have
encouraged this risky act of aggression
Some of the Khalsa’s own commanders, such
as Generals Lal Singh and Teg Singh, were later
accused of helping the British and betraying
their troops during the campaign.
13. BATTLE OF MUDKI
One Sikh army, under Tej Singh, advanced on Ferozepore
cantonment, but made no effort to attack the exposed British
force there.
At the same time, Lal Singh led another army - consisting of
10,000 cavalry, 4,000 infantry and 22 guns - towards Mudki,
some 18 miles (29km) from Ferozepore.
On 18 December 1845, Lal Singh's army met a British-
Indian force of 12,000 troops and 42 guns that had been
despatched under the command of General Sir Hugh
Gough, the Commander-in-Chief in India, and Viscount
Henry Hardinge, Governor-General of India, to reinforce
Ferozepore.
The Sikhs suffered severe setback battle
14. FEROZESHAH
The following day, the British advanced on nearby
Ferozeshah, where they encountered a Sikh army of around
40,000 troops, again led by Lal Singh, positioned behind
strong entrenchments.
Gough's 18,000-strong force attacked the Sikh defences. By
evening, these had only been partially taken. A renewed
assault the following morning forced the Sikhs out, but at
heavy cost to the British.
When a new Sikh army arrived, under the command of Tej
Singh, Gough withdrew his weakened force - now low on
supplies - to the captured entrenchments to await its attack.
But the Sikhs withdrew.
Perhaps the Sikhs overestimated British strength and
supplies, and believed they would not be able to eject them.
Alternatively, their retreat may have been motivated by the
treachery of their generals.
15. BOTH SIDES REINFORCE
Gough's army was exhausted and in need of rest and
reinforcement. Likewise, the Sikhs were temporarily put
on the back foot by the two defeats and suspicions
around their commanders' motives.
However, the Sikhs soon mobilised new units and moved
to renew the war. They re-crossed the Sutlej and
established a bridgehead at Sobraon.
To support this operation, Ranjodh Singh Majithia led
another Sikh force to attack the British fort at Ludhiana
and threaten their supply lines.
16. ALIWAL
General Sir Harry Smith led the British forces
to counter Ranjodh Singh.
The Ludhiana garrison reinforced his troops
and at nearby Aliwal, on 28 January 1846, he
won a model victory, rolling up the Sikh line,
inflicting around 3,000 casualties for the cost
of only 475 British and Indian troops, and
eliminating the threat to the British rear.
17. SOBRAON
Smith now moved to re-join Gough. The reinforced
British then successfully attacked the main Sikh force at
Sobraon on 10 February 1846.
A big fight followed.
The Sikhs fought with their backs to the River Sutlej,
refusing to surrender. As a result, casualties on both
sides were high. British losses were more than 2,000;
the Sikhs sustained perhaps as many as 10,000.
Many Sikhs were unable to escape as their pontoon
bridges across the river had been destroyed.
It is still debated whether this was the result of too much
traffic trying to cross,
or whether Tej Singh - who had fled the battlefield early -
deliberately cast the boats loose. His defenders claim he
destroyed the bridges to delay Gough’s advance on the
Sikh capital, Lahore. But the British soon reached it
anyway.
18. TREATY OF LAHORE, 1846
Maharaja Duleep Singh, who was the ruler of Punjab
was to remain its ruler with his mother Jindan Kaur as
regent.
The Sikhs had to cede the Jalandhar Doab to the
British.
The Sikhs were asked to pay a very huge war
indemnity .
But since they could not pay all of it, part of it was paid
and to make up for the remaining, Kashmir, Hazarah
and all territories between the Beas and the Indus
Rivers were given to the English.
The Sikhs were to limit their army.
British Resident, Sir Henry Lawrence was appointed
to the Sikh court
19. RESULTS
Lahore Treaty (March 8, 1846) On March 8, 1846,
the Sikhs were compelled to accept a humiliating
peace at the conclusion of the first Anglo-Sikh
War.
The following were the key provisions of the Treaty
of Lahore:
The English were to get a war indemnity of more than one
crore rupees.
The Company annexed the Jalandhar Doab (between the
Beas and the Sutlej).
Henry Lawrence was to create a British residency in
Lahore.
The Sikh army's strength was diminished.
20. Daleep Singh was proclaimed ruler, with Rani Jindan as
regent and Lal Singh as wazir.
Since the Sikhs were unable to pay the full war indemnity,
Kashmir, including Jammu, was sold to Gulab Singh.
On March 16, 1846, a second treaty formally
transferred Kashmir to Gulab Singh.
The Bhairowal Treaty - The Sikhs revolted because they were
dissatisfied with the Treaty of Lahore on the question of
Kashmir.
The Treaty of Bhairowal was signed in December of 1846.
Rani Jindan was deposed as regent and a council of regency
for Punjab was established as a result of the treaty's terms.
The council was made up of eight Sikh sardars and was
presided over by Henry Lawrence, the English Resident.
