This document discusses language teaching and introduces concepts related to approaches, methods, and techniques in language education. It begins by stating the aim of today's lesson is to reflect on education and language education. It then asks questions about whether teachers are born or made and can teaching be taught. The document goes on to define key terms like approach, method, and technique, explaining that approaches reflect models or paradigms, methods are sets of procedures for teaching a language, and techniques are classroom activities. It encourages writing and reflection on what makes a good teacher.
Communicative Language Teaching is the cornerstone for approaches that have shifted from a grammar-based language view to a functional view of language where communication is the main objective. Such approaches are CBI (Content-based instruction) and TBI (Task-based instruction). Today, both CBI and TBI are the leading approaches most teachers are currently using to teach a second/foreign language around the world. Both approaches have been proven to be effective, and the most important thing is that students are truly learning to use language to communicate their ideas to different audiences.

Rapid lose and endangerment of languages is occurring on a global scale. What are some of the causes of this? What consequences might it have, especially for speakers of minority languages? Discuss some of the steps proposed for diagnosing, halting and reversing language shift. Identify a language that is facing extinction or endangered. Discuss what can be done to revitalize it.
Introduction Provide an overall description of the school and clamariuse18nolet
Introduction: Provide an overall description of the school and classroom, be specific. Describe the demographics of the class (numbers by race, gender, ESE, ESOL).
Planning and Preparation: How does the classroom teacher plan and prepare for instruction? For example, does he or she use district curriculum maps or other school wide requirements? Does the directing teacher design a daily/weekly plan of instruction? Is the teacher required to submit the plans to administration?
Classroom Environment: How is the classroom organized? How is the space used? Is the classroom decorated? Describe the seating arrangement of the students (assigned? Desks in rows?) What rules and procedures have you observed? How are the students encouraged to communicate with the teacher? With each other?
Classroom Culture: How does the teacher work with the students to create a classroom culture? Describe at least 3 activities that contribute to the culture.
Diversity: Discuss the diversity of the class with the teacher. Do not just limit the discussion to race/gender (consider exceptionalities, socioeconomic, learning styles). Diversity spans much more, what strategies does the teacher use to reach his or her diverse populations.
Instruction: Observe at least one lesson taught by the teacher. Describe the lesson including objectives. How were the students assessed on what they learned? What kind of discussion techniques did the teacher integrate? What kind of technology does your teacher use in the classroom to teach the students?
Professional Responsibilities: How does your teacher model professionalism (hint, look at your text)? How does the teacher record and track grades? How does your teacher communicate with parents? Does your teacher participate in professional development?
Philosophy of Teaching: What is your teacher’s personal philosophy of teaching? How does it compare to yours? (Hint use your text) Review the 4 philosophies of education in Chapter 5, which philosophy of education represent your teacher’s style (discuss this with the teacher).
Conclusion: What did you learn from the experience? Ask your teacher how students have changed over the years (hint, look at your text). Has the experience helped you determine if you’ll pursue teaching? If so, what grade, level, subject?

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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
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.
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. Today’s lesson
Aim: to reflect upon education and language education as first stage
Are teachers made or
born?
Let’s reflect upon that
Approach-method and
technique
Can you see the
difference?
Explification of theory of language and
theory of language learning.
12. Approach – method - Technique
Approach reflects a certain model or research paradigm WHYWHY.
(Grammar-translation approach, reading approach,
communicative approach)
Method is a set of procedures, i.e a system that spells out rather
precisely how to teach a second or a foreign language.
Methods are typically compatible with one (Two) approaches.
HOWHOW (Silent way, Total Physical Response TPR, Suggestopedia)
Technique is classroom device or activity.
STEPSSTEPS (dictation, imitation, repetition,etc.)
15. Approach
Structural view – how the
language is approached-
coding
Functional view – semantic
and communicative-
meaning and functions of
the language.
Interactional theories
What are the psycholinguistic
and cognitive processes
involved in language
learning?
What are the conditions that
need to be met in order for
these leaning processes to be
activated?
Theories of language Theories of language
learning
18. Procedure+Techniques
+The use of teaching activites (drills,
dialogues, information gaps activities, etc.)
+The use of teaching activities for practicing
language.
+The procedures and techniques used in
giving feedback to learners concerning the
form and content.
