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.

2. • Intercultural Communication
The exchange of information between individuals
who are unalike culturally.
• Culture
A unique combination of rituals, religious beliefs,
ways of thinking, and ways of behaving that unify
a group of people.
• Co-culture
A group that exists within a larger, dominant
culture but differs from the dominant culture in
some significant characteristic.
3. Reason to Study Inter-cultural Communication
• Communication with people from other
cultures and co-cultures is increasingly
common.
• Intercultural communication is money
• Our curiosity about others.
• The convergence of technologies.
• Influx of foreign born immigrants, aliens, and
refugees.
4. • The Goals of Co-Cultural Communication
• Assimilation Goal
The marginalized group attempts to fit in with the
dominant group.
• Accommodation Goal
The marginalized group manages to keep co-cultural
identity while striving for positive relationships with
the dominant culture.
• Separation Goal
The marginalized group relates as exclusively as
possible with its own group and as little as possible
with the dominant group.
5. What Are Some Intercultural Communication
Problems?
• Ethnocentrism
The belief that your own group or culture is superior to other
groups or cultures.
• Cultural Relativism
The belief that another culture should be judged
by its own context rather than measured against your culture.
• Stereotyping
A stereotype is “a generalization about some group of people
that oversimplifies their culture.”
• Prejudice
A negative attitude toward a group of people just because
they are who they are
6. Some Characteristics of Different Cultures
• Individualistic Cultures
Cultures that value individual freedom, choice,
uniqueness, and independence.
• Collectivist Cultures
Cultures that value the group over the individual.
• Uncertainty-Accepting Cultures
Cultures that tolerate ambiguity, uncertainty, and
diversity.
• Uncertainty-Rejecting Cultures
Cultures that have difficulty with ambiguity,
uncertainty, and diversity.
7. • Implicit-rule culture
A culture in which information and cultural rules are
implied and already known to the participants.
• M-time
The monochronic time schedule, which
compartmentalizes time to meet personal needs,
separates task and social dimensions, and points to the
future.
• P-time
The polychronic time schedule, which views time as
“contextually based and relationally oriented.”

10. Strategies for Improving Intercultural
Communication
1. Conduct a personal self-assessment. How do
your own attitudes toward different cultures and
co-cultures influence your communication with
them? One of the first steps toward improving your
intercultural communication skills is an honest
assessment of your own communication style,
beliefs, and prejudices.
2. Practice supportive communication behaviors.
Supportive behaviors, such as empathy, encourage
success in intercultural exchanges; defensive
behaviors tend to hamper effectiveness.
11. 3. Develop sensitivity toward diversity. One healthy
communication perspective holds that you can learn
something from all people. Diverse populations provide
ample opportunity for learning. Take the time to learn
about other cultures and co-cultures before a
communication situation, but don’t forget that you will
also learn about others simply by taking a risk and talking
to someone who is different from you. Challenge yourself.
You may be surprised by what you learn.
4. Avoid stereotypes. Cultural generalizations go only so
far; avoid making assumptions about another’s culture,
and get to know individuals for themselves.
5. Avoid ethnocentrism. You may know your own culture
the best, but that familiarity does not make your culture
superior to all others. You will learn more about the
strengths and weaknesses of your own culture by
learning more about other cultures.
