LITERARY DEVICES are the tools that literary writers use to spice up what they write. These devices add aesthetics (beauty) to such work, making them more appealing to read. Some of these devices are used only in poetry, some used only in drama, some used only in prose, and many are used, generally, in all the genres. Examples are: stanza, rhyme, rhythm, theme, dialogue, stage direction, simile, irony, satire, metaphor, pun, assonance, personification, parody, hyperbole, oxymoron, paradox, metonymy, flashback, foreshadowing, alliteration, etc.
What is Figurative Language? Figurative language is when you describe something by comparing it to something else. The words or phrases that are used don't have a literal meaning. It uses metaphors, similes, hyperboles and other examples to help describe the object you are talking about.
This presentation has a hyperlink feature that will allow you to use this as a quiz after your discussion on Literal and Figurative Language in an English class.
This introduction to fiction genres helps young readers to understand the characteristics of historical fiction, realistic fiction, fantasy, science fiction, mystery and folktales. Through pictures, examples, and review, students will learn how to identify and use genres.

He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve.

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.
