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.

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.
1. Girls are responding to positive role models
Peer pressure can hold boys back
Many girls have mothers in employment
providing positive role models. Girls recognise
that they have choices in future and that
economic independence and a career are a real
possibility.
Among boys, peer group pressure is strong. This
may mean (for example) that they are reluctant to
be seen to do well at school or consider it weak to
request help from a teacher or another pupil.
Female expectations have changed (Sue
Sharpe, 1976)
Girls are more likely to develop the language
skills needed at school
Sharpe conducted research which showed that
girls priorities in 1976 were ‘love, marriage,
husbands, jobs and careers, more or less in that
order’. When she repeated the research in 1994
she found that ‘job, career and being able to
support themselves’ were now the top priorities
for girls.
Girls and boys use their leisure time differently.
Boys relate to their peers by doing (i.e. being active
in a range of ways) while girls relate to one another
by talking. This puts girls at an advantage as school
is essentially a language experience.
There has been a crackdown on gender
stereotyping in schools
Girls put more effort into their work (Burns and
Bracey 2001)
The work of feminist sociologists in the 1970s
and 80s led to a greater emphasis on equal
opportunities in schools. Teachers now are more
sensitive about avoiding gender stereotyping.
Girls are more motivated than boys and work
harder. For example reading 3x as much as boys and
spending, on average, longer on homework. Burns
and Bracey found that many boys believed that
school work should be done at school (not home).
Girls still face disadvantage (Mitsos and
Browne 1998)
Boys don’t think working hard at school is
masculine
There are continuing disadvantages for girls in
education. They continue to underrate
themselves and lack confidence in their ability;
get less of teachers’ time and tolerate the
dominance of boys in the classroom.
Boys think that being good at sport, particularly
football, is the best marker of how masculine you
are. Being good at school and working hard are not
valued and could get you labelled a swot.
There is acceptance that girls and boys have
equal ability
Mitsos and Browne (1998) and Mac and Ghaill
(1994) – male identity crisis
The majority of teachers and pupils now believe
that girls and boys have equal ability. Only 20
years ago it was still assumed by many that boys
were more able than girls.
Underlying male under-achievement is ‘an identity
crisis for men’. It is more difficult for boys to see
their future in terms of being a family’s
breadwinner, not least because of the decline of
the manufacturing industry. As a result they lack a
sense of purpose and don’t see the pay-off in
working hard at school.
2. Gender and subject choice – Kelly 1987
Science is a masculine subject and boys
dominate the science classroom. Girls are less
likely to pursue science as a result. Since 1987
the National Curriculum has forced girls to take
traditionally male subjects such as science.
GCSEs include more coursework and this suits
girls better
Girls put more effort in and are better organised,
therefore doing well in coursework.
Textbooks and teaching resources have
changed and are now less likely to stereotype
girls into passive roles or traditional notions of
femininity.
Reading is seen by boys as ‘uncool’ or ‘girly’
Stanworth (1983) Classroom interactions
disadvantaged girls
Stereotypical views about girl’s future roles and
capabilities are no longer put across (e.g. that they
will go into secretarial work or become a nurse).
Girls have a sense of bigger possibilities and
opportunities to aim for.
In this early 80s study Stanworth revealed that
girls got less attention from teachers and were
often negatively labelled.
As a result they don’t develop important
communication skills.
Teachers have lower expectations of boys
Classrooms are gendered (Francis 2000)
Teachers are less critical of boys than girls and
have lower expectations of them. They are more
likely to expect work from boys to be rushed,
late, untidy and to expect boys to be disruptive.
This leads to a self-fulfilling prophecy (i.e. boys
do worse because teachers don’t expect more of
them)
Boys take up more space in the classroom and
playground and girls tend to draw less attention to
themselves than boys. Assumptions are still made
by some teachers – e.g. girls are better at
languages, boys are better at maths. Boys are
disciplined more harshly and frequently than girls.
Gender and subject choice
Working class boys form anti-school subcultures
When choosing subjects to study, females and
males are influenced by what they have learnt
about femininity and masculinity. For example
girls may avoid some subjects as they associate
them with male jobs – and vice versa for boys.
Paul Willis (1970s) conducted research which
showed how groups of lads can reject school by
forming an anti-school subculture where
achievement doesn’t matter but ‘having a laff’ does.
Spender (1983) Education was dominated by men
Spender argued in the 80s that education was controlled and
dominated by men. The curriculum was male-centred, boys
got more attention and were more likely to get away with
being disruptive. Other sociologists would suggest that
education has since become more feminised.
Policies such as the Equal Pay Act
and Sex Discrimination Act have
helped to create more equal
opportunities in society as a whole.
