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.

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.

Subject Name: Social Psychology (PSYC0103)
Credit hours: 3
Prerequisite: None
L ectu rer : Mr. T.Shankar
Module Synopsis
The module provides a broad introduction to the field of social psychology. It examines the processes that
underlie social behaviour and discusses solutions and approaches to a variety of problems and issues. As
the human family stands on the brink of a new beginning, the condition of our present lives suggests that we
should address issues that have confronted mankind in the previous millennium. It should also equip
students with the necessary knowledge and skills to address contemporary issues, thus enabling them to
focus attention on the future without losing sight of the present. The module begins at the micro level and
moves through human interaction to the macro level. The underlying premise is that the individual needs to
empower him/herself first before he/she interacts effectively with others. As such, students are introduced to
their self, the processing of social information processing and attitudes is explored within the specific
framework of prejudice and stereotypes. From this focus on their self, the module moves into the realm of
interpersonal relations, beginning with attraction and altruism and then on to the darker side to explore
aggression. It also addresses the arena of social interactions by examining group behaviour and the
influence within social settings. The journey ends by examining how social behaviour is affected by the culture
in which it takes place. Indeed, the end of the course heralds the beginning of a richer and fuller life for
many of us.
Module Teaching Objectives
Provide a clear, informative, challenging, exciting and personal introduction to Social Psychology.
Enable students to gain an increased awareness and sharpened sensitivity to human behaviour to
enable them to relate meaningfully with others.

ourselves but also the products of social situations.
Gain a new vision of the human experience and emerge as active and critical participants in an ever-
changing world.

General Rules and Regulations (Refer to programme guide and student handbook 2012)
Late Submission Penalty
The School imposes a late submission penalty for work submitted late without a valid reason e.g. a medical
certificate. Any work submitted after the deadline (which may have been extended) shall have the
percentage grade assigned to the work on face value reduced by 10% for the first day and 5% for each
subsequent day late. A weekend counts as 1 day.
Individual members of staff shall be permitted to grant extensions for assessed work that they have set if they
are satisfied that a student has given good reasons.
The Board of Examiners may overrule any penalty imposed and allow the actual mark achieved to be used if
the late submission was for a good reason.
Absenteeism at intermediate or final presentations will result in zero mark for that presentation.
Attendance and Participation
Attendance is compulsory. Any student who arrives late after the first half-hour of class will be considered as
absent. A minimum of 80% attendance is required to pass this module and/or be eligible for the final
examination. You are expected to attend and participate actively in class. The lectures and tutorials will
assist you in expanding your ideas and your research progression.
Your work will be graded based on your performance throughout the semester. Your class participation is as
important as the end product.
It is compulsory for the student to attempt and submit all assessment components including Portfolio.
Failing to do so will result in failing the module irrespective of the marks earned.
It is also compulsory for the student to submit the final group assignment. Groups who do not submit final
group assignments will result in failing the module even though the student has achieved more than 50% in
the overall assessment.
Plagiarism (TU Student Handbook 2011)
Plagiarism, which is an attempt to present another person’s work as your own by not acknowledging the
source, is a serious case of misconduct which is deemed unacceptable by the University. "Work" includes
written materials such as books, journals and magazine articles or other papers and also includes films and
computer programs. The two most common types of plagiarism are from published materials and other
students’ works
a. Published Materials
In general, whenever anything from someone else’s work is used, whether it is an idea, an opinion or the
results of a study or review, a standard system of referencing should be used. Examples of plagiarism may
include a sentence or two, or a table or a diagram from a book or an article used without acknowledgement.
Serious cases of plagiarism can be seen in cases where the entire paper presented by the student is copied
from another book, with an addition of only a sentence or two by the student. While the former can be
treated as a simple failure to cite references, the latter is likely to be viewed as cheating in an examination.
Though most assignments require the need for reference to other peoples’ works, in order to avoid
plagiarism, students should keep a detailed record of the sources of ideas and findings and ensure that
these sources are clearly quoted in their assignment. Note that plagiarism refers to materials obtained from the
Internet too.
b. Other Students’ Work
Circulating relevant articles and discussing ideas before writing an assignment is a common practice.
However, with the exception of group assignments, students should write their own papers. Plagiarising the
work of other students into assignments includes using identical or very similar sentences, paragraphs or
sections. When two students submit papers which are very similar in tone and content, both are likely to be
penalised.

Student-Centered Learning Approach
This module uses the Student-centered Learning (SCL) approach. Utilization of this method embodies most of
the principles known to improve learning and to encourage student’s participation. SCL requires students to
be active, RESPONSIBLE participants in their own learning and the teachers are to facilitate the students
learning process. Various teaching and learning strategies such as experiential learning, problem-based
learning, site visits, group discussions, presentations, working in group and etc. will be employed to facilitate
the learning process for this module.
In SCL students are to be:
active in their own learning
self-directed to be responsible to enhance their learning abilities
able to cultivate skills that are useful in today’s workplace
active knowledge seekers
active players in a teamwork
TIMeS
TIMeS will be used as a communication tool and information portal for students to access module materials,
project briefs, assignments and announcements.

Types of Assessment and Feedback
Each student will be graded in the form of formative and summative assessments that will be provided in class
sessions. Formative assessments will guide the student in the assignments. This form of assessment will be
conducted through discussions in tutorial sessions. Summative assessment will inform the student about the
level of understanding and performance capabilities achieved at the end of each assessment. Portfolio is used
as a reflection of the acquisition of learning outcomes.
