Charles Dickens was an English writer born in 1812 who is considered one of the most famous authors of the Victorian era. Some of his most successful works include Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol, and Hard Times. Hard Times critiques the negative effects of industrialization, portraying the dangers of prioritizing facts over imagination. It follows characters like educators Thomas Gradgrind and his children, as well as workers Stephen Blackpool and Sissy Jupe, and demonstrates themes of the conflict between fancy and facts. Through the use of literary devices like repetition, exaggeration, and irony, Dickens creates a denunciation of the inhumane conditions faced by the working class during the Industrial Revolution.
This is a ppt made from a student in English Literature using the text template given in class to assist in analyzing the story. This template is a good way to help students in their critical thinking skills while analyzing poetry or prose. The text template includes, but not limited to:
Author Bio: This includes any details about why the author wrote the specific poem or prose.
Title: The students are to discuss what the title means before reading the poem or text. This usually gives insight as to what the story or poem could be about. Normally, the students are not far off the mark when doing this.
They must also give insight as to what the title means after reading the poem or text to compare and see if they were thinking along the same lines.
Words/Vocabulary:
Students are to identify words they may not know, but they can also identify phrases to understand what is being stated.
Structure and Form: Literary devices
In this section the student will develop more of their analytical skills by trying to break the code when identifying literary devices. They do not only state the literary device, but they also quote the portion of the poem or story they wish to explain in their own words. It also helps them understand the rhyme scheme and language.
Finally, they may put all of the information together to form a summary about the poem or text. This enables the student to write an effective PEE structured essay for Cambridge purposes.

hard times novel by charles dicken by quratulain akhter Quratulainakhter
Hard Times (1854), dickens has constructed an almost entirely mechanized world of people, ideas and environments.
This suggests that the natural and corresponding counterpart always needs to fight for its self-preservation among characters’ perceptions and within settings.
The philosophy mirrors the mechanical characteristics of industrialisation and hence expresses the great importance of mechanical perceptions such as objective utilitarianism and factual statistics.
Importance
i. Hard Times has also been described as a novel which asks most clearly to be read not as a mere fictional world but as a commentary on 4 a contemporary crisis ii. The novel is therefore not only supposed to be a pleasant and entertaining read.
iii. It is a work of fiction which contains a serious depth and has an underlying gravity which is important to be aware of.
iv. It is both criticism of industrialism and an attempt to raise awareness among people about how they think.
v. Hard Times has the effect of tempting the reader to reflect upon his or her situation and how they believe they live their lives, as well as how they imagine their relationships with others are.

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.
