Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.

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.

5. How do I get to Google Scholar? Go to the Google homepage (www.google.com). Look at the title bar across the top of the page and find the More link. Click on More to make a menu drop down; from this menu you should see and click on the link that says Scholar.
8. Welcome to Google Scholar Preferences! Here you can set language and display options. This Preferences page also allows you to link directly to your library’s collection. If you follow directions and set this up, a Find It with OLinks link will start showing up in your Scholar searches whenever OhioLINK has online full-text. The next few slides will show you how to set up this super-helpful, timesaving feature.
9. Find the search box next to Library Links. Type in OhioLINK and click Find Library
10. Click on the box to the left of OhioLINK. Make sure that a check mark has appeared in the box. Be sure to scroll to the top or bottom of the page and click on SAVE PREFERENCES Return to the Google Scholar homepage before continuing
17. Advanced Search Options The Advanced Search also gives you options concerning publication details. This is especially helpful if you are looking for a specific publication, or publications from a certain date range. Return to the Google Scholar homepage before continuing
18. Basic Search Google Scholar’s homepage is its basic search. This is a single search box, just like normal Google. It is a simpler format, but it will give you access to the same resources as the advanced search.
19. Sample Basic Search Let’s run a sample basic search for the word “happiness” Type happiness into the main Google scholar search box and click search.
20. Sample Basic Search: happiness The total number of search results is listed here. If you get back too many results, think about refining your search before you start scrolling through responses. Try adding “and” with another keyword to limit your search
21. Changing the search string to “happiness and neuroscience and chocolate” makes for a much more effective search! There are far fewer results to sort through and these results are more likely to relate closely to the topic since we’ve given the search more specific criteria. All of these results must mention happiness AND neuroscience AND chocolate somewhere in their text.
26. Understanding the Search Results Link to a list of other articles that have cited this resource or included this resource in their references This is helpful because it links the reference pages of these resources together and shows you who is citing whom. It also is likely to list resources that pick up where the original resource left off, either by continuing its studies or updating its findings. When something has been cited a lot, it can mean that the resource was foundational, revolutionary, or controversial. Remember that more recent works are less likely to have been cited a lot simply because there hasn’t been time for new research to emerge.
27. Understanding the Search Results Related articles Click on related articles to see additional resources on the same topic.
28. Finding the Full Text of the Resource Links to the full text of the resource If the full-text of the resource is available freely online, Scholar will give you the link. If the full-text of the resource is available through Defiance College, you’ll see a link to Find it with Olinks. Click and you’ll link directly into Pilgrim Library’s electronic journal holdings. This will only happen, though, if you have set your preferences to include the OhioLINK library as demonstrated earlier in this presentation!
29. Finding the Full Text of the Resource What if there isn’t a link to a pdf or to Find it with OLinks? Scholar tries to help you research by giving you citations even when the full-text is not freely available. When this happens and you don’t see a link to a pdf or to Find it with OLinks, don’t despair! You still have options. The library could own a copy of the journal in print, or we can try and borrow it from another library. Write down and keep all necessary citation information for the resource you’re interested in. Then visit the Find It page (http://library.defiance.edu/guides/articles.html) of the library’s website and follow its directions. If you have any questions, contact a librarian at Pilgrim Library – we’re happy to help! If there is no full-text, click on OhioLINKOLinksor follow the directions above.
30. Understanding Search Results Why do some resources have different links than others? Google Scholar only lists the options that apply to each specific resource. For example, if an article has not been cited by any other works, Scholar will not give a Cited by link for that resource. If the article is available for purchase from the British Library, there will be a link; if it’s not in the British Library, there won’t be a link.
