The combination of the artist's main product (music video and CD) and ancillary texts (CD digipak and magazine advert) creates synergy through consistent imagery and promotion of the artist's brand identity. The digipak and advert use the same background and photos from the music video. Both also promote purchasing the music on iTunes. This consistency across products helps promote the artist within the R&B genre and record label. The brand identity positions the artist as powerful yet relatable to audiences.

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.

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.

1. How effective is the
combination of your
main product and
ancillary texts?
By Rocharna McNaughton
2. What is Synergy?
In order for us to answer this evaluation question effectively we must first
identify what is meant by synergy and how it can be effective in relation to
this A2 coursework.
Synergy is the interaction or cooperation of two or more organisations/agents
to produce a combined effect greater than separate attempts. In this case I
will show how synergy between my music video, the CD digipak and my
magazine advert, achieved this.
3. Digipak
The digipak is used to directly sell my artist ‘Jhene Aiko’
and her music ‘Wrap me up’. For example, my artist is
wearing a big gold chain around her neck, which conforms to
representations of the R&B image. This helps sell her music
as the target audience will recognise this CD as belonging to
their desired genre.
Jhene Aiko is represented as angelic yet powerful. As can
be seen, she is lying on her side looking down which shows
her innocence. This contrasts with her black/black lipstick
to show that her words are powerful and presents her music
as powerful.
Digipaks of other genres (for example, indie) contain
powerful lyrics and this is seen as most important. However
in an R&B genre it is mainly about artist image which is why
the inside of my digipak contained more photos of my artist.
Throughout the four panel digipak I have used images of the
same background as opposed to conforming to a white
backdrop. As a result existing costumers will associate this
background with my artist which will help me with synergy
when making the magazine advert.
4. Magazine Advert
The magazine advert has the same image as seen on the front cover of my CD
digipak. This magazine advert would be posted in R&B magazines such as VIBE and
also online R&B magazines such as rnbmagazine.com. Furthermore, because we
know that the audience for R&B hardcopy magazines are decreasing, it is clear
that my target audience is predominately online. This means that it is easier for
my target audience to make music purchases online which is why there is an
iPhone barcode on my music magazine that is directly linked up to iTunes (another
online source).
Doing this we can see that there is synergy between the digipak, the music advert
and the music video. The photos where taken from the music video and therefore
there is a consist image running through all ancillary products to help promote and
easily recognise features from my music video, an example of this is the patterned
backdrop.
There is also synergy between my magazine advert and iTunes. The magazine
advert promotes that the single ‘wrap me up’ can be purchased on itunes which
increases revenue and also Def Jam record labels.
There is also synergy between the typography used on the music advert and the
CD digipak. Whereby I kept the idea that R&B fans like big chains so the same gold
typography and font on both text.
5. Brand Identity
Creating a brand identity for Jhene Aiko was more difficult than it would have
been for an already established artist because they already have an
established fan base. Due to Jhene being new to the mainstream industry I
could not work around her pre-existing image, and I therefore had to create
what I thought it would be from similar R&B artists within the same record
label.
A lot of this research was done on Def Jam Records; the brand identity of
their signed artists and how that contributed to the brand identity of Def Jam
Records as a whole. I think that this was my strong point in this coursework.
6. Brand Identity & Record Label
The brand identity of my artist Jhene Aiko has to conform to other artists in this record
label. For example, Mariah Carey has a new album coming out called ‘ME. I AM Mariah’ and
the album cover is covered in gold. Gold represents the artists as expensive and also of
higher status than its audience. This allows the audience to look up to the artist in this
record label
All of Def Jam’s adverts when promoting their artists new singles/albums include that the
album can be purchased on iTunes. This can create the identity that the artists and the
audience are modern and embrace that their audience are part of the age of technology.
Maximising their revenue by promoting legal downloads (we are aware that the R&B
audience rarely buy CD Digipaks and therefore provide an alternative)
My artist Jhene Aiko is seen as having a celebrity status by publishing my magazine advert
in VIBE. Artists that are in this magazine are seen as glamorous, popular and high end in
the music industry.
My artist is dressed in black with black lipstick, this represents her as being dark and
serious. Furthermore, the lipstick represents her as being able to speak her mind which
can mean that sometimes it can be cynical.
The fact my artist is looking down represents that she is looking down on her competition
and also reinforces the identity that she is of higher status as opposed to just a regular
person (a stereotypical feature of an R&B artist)
To empathise and regain their connection with their target audience/fans, R&B artists
normally represent themselves as going through everyday struggles. For example, in their
music they will talk about mundane struggles such as falling in an out of love. This is why
in my music video I included narrative and a performance element so that the target
audience could identify with the artist as they feel like they have been through the same
as Jhene Aiko
7. Brand Identity & Record Label
Def Jam Records usual promote their artists on their official website
defjam.com and through VIBE magazine (print and online). Looking through
the other adverts in this magazine, such as adidas adverts, we can see that
the target audience is materialistic which is what fuelled my decision to make
my typography gold.
Jhene aiko is represented as having a well kept image in the magazine
advert. This is in keeping with other adverts in this magazine, such as high
end perfumes, which shows me that the target audience care about their
physical appearance.
