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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

What Is A Computer?
A computer is an electronic device, operating
under the control of instructions (software) stored
in its own memory unit, that can accept data
(input), manipulate data (process), and produce
information (output) from the processing.
Generally, the term is used to describe a collection
of devices that function together as a system.

Data and Information
All computer processing requires data, which is a
collection of raw facts, figures and symbols, such as
numbers, words, images, video and sound, given to the
computer during the input phase.
Computers manipulate data to create information.
Information is data that is organized, meaningful, and
useful.
During the output Phase, the information that has been
created is put into some form, such as a printed report.
The information can also be put in computer storage for
future use.
7. 7
Why Is A Computer So Powerful?
The ability to perform the information processing
cycle with amazing speed.
Reliability (low failure rate).
Accuracy.
Ability to store huge amounts of data and
information.
Ability to communicate with other computers.
8. 8
How Does a Computer Know
what to do?
It must be given a detailed list of instructions,
called a compute program or software, that tells
it exactly what to do.
Before processing a specific job, the computer
program corresponding to that job must be stored
in memory.
Once the program is stored in memory the
compute can start the operation by executing the
program instructions one after the other.

16. First generation computers
(1940-1956)
The first computers used vacuum tubes
for circuitry and magnetic
drums for memory.
They were often enormous and taking
up entire room.
First generation computers relied
on machine language.
. They were very expensive to operate
and in addition to using a great deal of
18. Second generation computers
(1956-1963)
• Transistors replaced vacuum tubes and ushered in the
second generation of computers.
• Second-generation computers moved from
cryptic binary machine language to symbolic.
• High-level programming languages were also being
developed at this time, such as early versions of COBOL
and FORTRAN.
• These were also the first computers that stored their
instructions in their memory.
20. Third generation computers
(1964-1971)
The development of the integrated circuit was the hallmark
of the third generation of computers.
Transistors were miniaturized and placed on siliconchips,
called semiconductors.
Instead of punched cards and printouts, users interacted
with third generation computers through keyboards
and monitors and interfaced with an operating system.
Allowed the device to run many different applications at
one time.
22. Fourth generation computers
(1971-present)
The microprocessor brought the fourth generation
of computers, as thousands of integrated circuits
were built onto a single silicon chip.
The Intel 4004 chip, developed in 1971, located all
the components of the computer.
From the central processing unit and memory to
input/output controls—on a single chip.
. Fourth generation computers also saw the
development of GUIs, the mouse and
handheld devices.
24. Fifth generation computers
(present and beyond)
Fifth generation computing devices, based on artificial
intelligence.
Are still in development, though there are some
applications, such as voice recognition.
The use of parallel processing and superconductors is
helping to make artificial intelligence a reality.
The goal of fifth-generation computing is to develop
devices that respond to natural language input and are
capable of learning and self-organization.
