Teachers Should Use a Variety of
Assessment Tools:
• teacher observations,

• as well as standardized
and other tests.

Teachers who know
students individually
provide many kinds
of support, enabling
students to move to
higher levels of
reading and literacy
development.
Carol Bennett, WRESA 10
Scaffolding Instruction
• Teachers of balanced reading provide direct
instruction to scaffold learning and make
learning to read and write easier.
• They also provide ample
opportunity and support for
students to use and extend their
instruction in functional reading and writing.
Carol Bennett, WRESA 11
Examples of Scaffolding
• Story Mapping:
To help students think
about how the different
story elements work
together:
– Characters
– Setting
– Problem
– Main events
– Resolution
• Character Sketching:
To help students
focus on how the
main character’s
personal traits often

A slow learner is a child who learns at a pace a little behind others of their age and grade level.
Slow learners are not always learning disabled, and may have ordinary lives outside of the classroom. However, academic subjects are a challenge for them.
To help slow learners, take a variety of approaches to teaching important subject matter. Get support for the students inside and outside the classroom.
Most importantly, encourage slow learners by working with them patiently and by celebrating their successes
When dealing with slow learners, patience and grace are important virtues to remember. Instead of being ashamed, leaders, teachers and parents must help them reach their true potential. If we are to support students and faculty as connected learners and instructors, we must rethink our approach to academic technology architecture.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
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.
