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.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

2. Where it started
The Horror Genre started out in Britain in the late 1700’s in Gothic
Horror literature by authors such as Mary Shelly, Bram Stoker and
Edgar Allen Poe. It is these story liens that we now see appearing on
the big screen for example, Bram Stokers Dracula is a story line and
character that has appeared on our screens numerous times in the
past 119 years that horror films have been made . The term Horror
film wasn’t coined until the 1930’s before that it was called a spook
tale, the first of the ‘spook tales’ was created by the Lumière brothers
in 1895 which was just a fragment of a Skelton dancing

record was made by the Frenchmen Georges Méliès in 1896 he
created the film Le Manoir du Diable its only a short film running just
over 3 minuets but was the beginning of the horror film genre

3. The First Trailers
Before looking at the first horror trailer I have to
look at where and when film trailers started.
The great train robbery of 1903 is considered to be
one of the first film trailers created, the trailer is
only a few seconds long and consists of the ending
of the film where a man is shooting at the screen
being cut and used a the trailer.
The trailers have come a long way since this first
attempt , they have developed from a short promo
to becoming an integral part of the film and its
advertisement.

6. Horror film plots
When looking back through the film titles that have been
released several titles reappear again and again. One of
the most frequent is Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde appearing 7
times between 1900 and the 1950’s, this storyline is
recreated so much because it is a “Classic” horror
storyline which has evolved with horror as a genre.
Another thing I pick up when looking back though the
films is the international ‘adoption’ of the horror genre.
The early horror films where made predominantly by the
English and the French but as the success of horror film
spread more and more country's started to produce
there own horror films.
7. Big Budgets
Movies no matter which genre or era there frim
have often had/ got big budgets. In early horror
film you could expect the budget for a film to
have been about $100’000 (The Blob 1958)
compared to a modern day budget of $5million
(As Above, so Below). It is a huge difference in
budgets.
