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.
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

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.
1. Getting Ready for Lambing and Kidding SUSAN SCHOENIANSheep and Goat SpecialistUniversity of Maryland Extensionwww.sheepandgoat.comsschoen@umd.edu
2. This presentation was originally given at the 2009 Lambing and Kidding School in Waldorf, Maryland.
3. What’s happening during the last 4 to 6 weeks of pregnancy? 70 percent of fetal growth is occurring. The udder is developing. Rumen capacity is decreasing.
4. Extra nutrition is needed To support fetal growth To support udder development To prevent pregnancy toxemia (ketosis) To ensure the birth of strong, healthy babies of moderate birth weight. BIRTH WEIGHT SURVIVAL
5. Nutrition During Late Gestation Energy is the nutrient most likely to be deficient. Nutrient requirements vary by species, age, and size (weight) of female and her expected level of production. To meet energy needs, you usually need to feed some grain. If forage quality is low, you may also need to supplement protein and calcium.
6. Do not underfeed (including the fat ones) Inadequate nutrition can result in . . . Pregnancy toxemia (ketosis) Small and weak babies Higher mortality Reduced colostrum quality and quantity Poor milk yield Reduced wool production (in offspring) via fewer secondary follicles
7. Do not overfeed(including the skinny ones) Because . . . Fat girls are more prone to pregnancy toxemia. Fat ones have more dystocia problems. Large fetuses can have difficulty being born.
8. Proper feed bunk management Make sure all ewes or does can eat at the same time. Feed pregnant ewe lambs and doelings separately from mature females. Separate males after breeding. Do not feed on the ground.
9. Selenium (Se) and vitamin E Our soils are deficient in selenium. Low levels of Se and/or vitamin E have been associated with poor reproductive performance and retained placentas. Se is passed from the placenta to the fetus during late gestation A selenium deficiency can cause white muscle in lambs and kids.
10. Selenium (Se) and vitamin E Free choice mineral mixes usually provide adequate selenium. Adding a selenium-fortified mineral mix to the grain ration will ensure adequate intake of Se. On farms with a history of white muscle disease, Se injections are sometimes necessary. There is a narrow range between what animals need and Se toxicity.
11. Calcium Calcium requirements virtually double during late pregnancy. Milk fever is caused by low blood calcium resulting from Inadequate intake of calcium Failure to mobilize calcium reserves. You also need to avoid excessive Ca intake. Save alfalfa or similar hay for lactation diet. This ewe required IV calcium.
12. Calcium Grains are low in calcium. Forages are higher in calcium, especially legumes. Supplemental Ca Complete grain mixes Mineral supplements Dicalcium phosphate Limestone Bonemeal If a low quality forage is fed, calcium should be added to the grain ration.
13. Pre-lambing/kidding vaccinationsCD-T: clostridium perfringins type C & D and tetanus (overeating disease) Vaccinate pregnant females approximately one month prior to parturition. Only way to protect lambs and kids from type C overeating disease and tetanus. Females vaccinated for the first time require two shots. Lambs and kids will acquire passive immunity when they consume the colostrum (first milk).
14.
15. Feed a coccidiostatTo reduce coccidia in lambing and kidding environment In feed or mineral Bovatec® - sheep Rumensin® - goats Deccox® - both Continue through weaning. As an aid to prevent abortions caused by Toxoplasmagondii. Coccidiostats, especially Rumensin® are toxic to the equine family.
16. AntibioticsIf there is a flock history or risk of abortions Feed Chlortetracycline (aureomycin) fed at a level of 80 mg/head/day during the last 6 weeks of gestation Injections Oxytetracycline (LA-200) at 2 week intervals.
17.
18. Get your facilities, equipment, and supplies ready 2 weeks before the first babies are due.
19. Happy Lambing and Kidding! Remember: most ewes and does lamb and kid without any problems.
