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.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. 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. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. On this SlideShare page, you will find several Power Point presentations, one for each of the
most popular essays to read aloud from A Sand County Almanac at Aldo Leopold Weekend
events. Each presentation has the essay text right on the slides, paired with beautiful images that
help add a visual element to public readings. Dave Winefske (Aldo Leopold Weekend event
planner from Argyle, Wisconsin) gets credit for putting these together. Thanks Dave!
A note on images within the presentations: we have only received permission to use these
images within these presentations, as part of this event. You will see a photo credit slide as the
last image in every presentation. Please be sure to show that slide to your audience at least
once, and if you don't mind leaving it up to show at the end of each essay, that is best. Also please
note that we do not have permission to use these images outside of Aldo Leopold Weekend
reading event presentations. For example, the images that come from the Aldo Leopold
Foundation archive are not “public domain,” yet we see unauthorized uses of them all the time on
the internet. So, hopefully that’s enough said on this topic—if you have any questions, just let us
know. mail@aldoleopold.org
If you download these presentations to use in your event, feel free to delete this intro slide before
showing to your audience.
4. THE WILD THINGS THAT LIVE
ON MY FARM ARE RELUCTANT
TO TELL ME, in so many words,
how much of my township is
included within their daily or
nightly beat.
5. I am curious about this, for it gives me the ratio between the size
of their universe and the size of mine, and it conveniently begs
the much more important question, who is the more thoroughly
acquainted with the world in which he lives?
6. Like people, my animals frequently disclose by their actions what they
decline to divulge in words. It is difficult to predict when and how one of
these disclosures will come to light.
7. THE DOG, being no hand with an axe, is free to hunt
while the rest of us are making wood
8. A sudden yip-yip-yip gives us notice that
a rabbit, flushed from his bed in the
grass, is headed elsewhere in a hurry.
9. He makes a beeline for a woodpile a quarter-mile distant, where he ducks
between two corded stacks, a safe gunshot ahead of his pursuer
10. The dog, after leaving a few symbolic toothmarks on the hard oak, gives it
up & resumes his search for some less canny cottontail, and we resume
our chopping.
11. This little episode tells me that this rabbit is familiar with all of the
ground between his bed in the meadow and his blitz-cellar under the
woodpile.
12. How else the beeline? This rabbit's home range is at least a quarter-
mile in extent.
13. The chickadees that visit our feeding station are trapped and banded each
winter. Some of our neighbors also feed chickadees, but none band them.
14. By noticing the furthest points from my feeder at which banded chickadees
are seen, we have learned that the home range of our flock is half a mile
across in winter, but that it includes only areas protected from wind.
15. In summer, when the flock has dispersed for nesting, banded birds are seen
at greater distances, often mated with unbanded birds. At this season the
chickadees pay no heed to wind, often being found in open wind-swept
places.
16. The fresh tracks of three deer, clear in yesterday's snow, pass through
our woods.
17. I follow the tracks backward and find a cluster of three beds, clear
of snow, in the big willow thicket on the sandbar.
18. I then follow the tracks forward; they lead
to my neighbor's cornfield, where the deer
have pawed waste corn out of the
snow, and also tousled one of the shocks.
19. The tracks then lead back, by another
route, to the sandbar. En route the deer
have pawed at some grass tufts, nuzzling
for the tender green sprouts within, and
they have also drunk at a spring.
20. My picture of the night's routine is complete. The over-all distance from
bed to breakfast is a mile.
21. Our woods always harbors grouse, but one day last winter, after a deep
and soft snow, I could find neither a grouse nor a track of one.
22. I had about concluded that my birds had moved out,
when my dog came to a point in the leafy top of an oak
blown down last summer.
23. Three grouse flushed out, one by one.
There were no tracks under or near the
down top: Obviously these birds had
flown in, but from where?
24. Grouse must eat, especially in zero weather, so I examined the droppings
for a clue. Among much unrecognizable debris I found bud-scales, &
also the tough yellow skins of frozen nightshade berries.
25. In a thicket of young soft maple I had noticed, in summer, an abundant
growth of nightshade. I went there and, after a search, found grouse
tracks on a log
26. The birds had not waded the soft
snow; they had walked the logs
and picked the berries projecting
here and there within their reach.
28. That evening, at sunset, I saw a grouse budding in a popple thicket a
quarter-mile west. There were no tracks.
29. This completed the story. These birds, for the duration of the soft
snow, were covering their home range a-wing, not afoot, and the range
was half a mile across.
30. SCIENCE KNOWS LITTLE ABOUT HOME RANGE: how big it is at various
seasons, what food and cover it must include, when and how it is defended
against trespass, & whether ownership is an individual, family, or group
affair.
31. These are the fundamentals of animal economics, or
ecology. Every farm is a textbook on animal ecology;
woodsmanship is the translation of the book.
