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.

2. INTRODUCTION
Muscle relaxants are the agents that
act peripherally at neuromuscular
junction/muscle fibre itself to block
neuromuscular transmission.
In order to facilitate muscle relaxation
for surgery & for mechanical
ventilation during surgery or in ICU.
3. SITE OF ACTION OF MUSCLE
RELAXANTS
Muscle relaxants blocks nicotinic receptor
of Acetylcholine peripherally at the
neuromuscular junction.
Mainly at postjunctional receptors.
Either acting as agonist(depolarizing) or
antagonist(non-depolarizing).
4. TYPES OF MUSCLE RELAXANTS
NON-COMPETITIVE(DEPOLARIZING)
SUCCINYLCHOLINE
DECAMETHONIUM (No longer available)
COMPETITIVE(NON-DEPOLARIZING)
ATRACURIUM
CISATRACURIUM
ROCURONIUM
PANCURONIUM
VECURONIUM
MIVACURIUM
5. 5 12/11/16
SUCCINYLCHOLINE
STRUCTURE: Consists of two joined acetylcholine
molecules
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Succinylcholine act like
acetylcholine but persist at the synapse at high concentration
and for longer duration and constantly stimulate the receptor.
First, opening of the Na+ channel occurs resulting in
depolarization, this leads to transient twitching of the muscle,
continued binding of drugs make the receptor incapable to
transmit the impulses, paralysis occurs.
The continued depolarization makes the receptor incapable of
transmitting further impulses.
6. SUCCINYLCHOLINE
INDICATIONS: Patient with full stomach.
Obstetric patient.
Anticipated difficult intubation.
DOSE: Intubating 1.0-1.5mg/kg.
ONSET OF ACTION: 30-60 seconds
DURATION OF ACTION: Less than 10 mins.
METABOLISM: By Plasmacholinestrase or
Butrylcholinestrase or Pseudocholinestrase.
12/11/16 6
7. SUCCINYLCHOLINE
Succinylcholine on breakdown by
butrycholinesterase produces
succinylmonocholine.
The duration of action is prolonged by high dose
or by abnormal metabolism.
Abnormal metabolism may result from
hypothermia, low enzyme levels or genetically
aberrant enzyme.
Hypothermia decreases rate of hydrolysis.
8. SUCCINYLCHOLINE
Low levels of pseudocholinesterase accompany
liver disease,carcinomatosis and
starvation,pregnancy,anticholinestrases,hypothyr
oidism,renal disease.
Prolonged paralysis caused by atypical
cholinesterase should be treated with cont
mechanical ventilation until muscle function
returns to normal.
9. 9 12/11/16
SIDE EFFECTS OF
SUCCINYLCHOLINE
Bradycardia preventable by atropine.
Hyperkalemia in patients with massive
trauma,burns,stroke,tetanus,closed head injury.
Muscle pain.
Fasciculations.
Intragastric pressure elevation.
Intraocular pressure elevation.
Malignant hyperthermia.
Prolonged paralysis (Succinylcholine apnea).
Intracranial pressure elevation.
10. MECHANISM OF ACTON:MECHANISM OF ACTON:
• These have an affinity for the Nicotinic (NM)
receptors at the muscle end plates but have no
intrinsic activity.
• The antagonism is surmountable by increasing
the conc. of Ach.
NON-DEPOLARIZING AGENTS
11. Non depolarising neuromuscular blocking
drugs classification (on basis of chemical
strucure)
Benzylisoquinolinium
(Release histamine)
D-tubocurarine
Metocurine
Doxacurium
Atracurium
Cisatracurium
Mivacurium
Aminosteroids
(Not release histamine)
Pancuronium
Vecuronium
Rocuronium
Rapacuronium
12. ATRACURIUM
Benzylisoquinoline derivative
Intubating dose 0.5mg/kg.
Onset of action 2.5-3.0 mins.
Duration of intubating dose 30-45 mins.
Maintenance by boluses 0.1mg/kg.
May release histamine and may therefore can cause
hypotension,tachycardia,bronchospasm.
Non-organ dependent elimination
Non specific estererase: 60% of elimination
Hofmann elimination : spontaneous nonenzymatic
chemical breakdown occurs at physiologic pH and
temperature.
13. ATRACURIUM
Laudanosine toxicity
-breakdown product from Hofmann elimination, assoc.
with central nervous system excitation resulting in
elevation of MAC and precipitation of seizures.
Temperature and pH sensitivity-action markedly
prolonged in hypo- thermic or acidotic patients.
Available as a solution of 10mg/ml.It must be stored at 2-
8 centigrade.At room temperature,it should be used
within 14 days to preserve potency.
14. CIS-ATRACURIUM
Benzoisoquinoline derivative
Intubating dose 0.2mg/kg
Onset 2-3 mins.
Duration of intubating dose 40-75 mins.
3x more potent than atracurium.
No ester hydrolysis.
More hoffman degradation.
Produces less laudanosine.
Minimal histamine release
Useful in critically ill patient requiring prolonged infusion
of neuromuscular blocking drugs.
15. MIVACURIUM
Benzylisoquinoline derivative.
Potency, 1/3 that of atracurium
Metabolized by plasma cholinestrase at 88% of
the rate of succinylcholine.
Intubating dose 0.1-0.15 mg/kg
Onset of action 2.5-3.0 mins (similar to
atracurium).
Duration of intubating dose 15-20 mins
(recovery faster than atracurium).
Produces similar amount of histamine release to
atracurium.
16. MIVACURIUM
Useful particularly for surgical procedures
requiring muscle relaxation in which even
atracurium and vecuronium seem too long-
acting and when it is desirable to avoid side
effects of succinylcholine e.g. for
bronchoscopy,esophagoscopy or tonsillectomy.
Duration of action may be increased due to
reduced plasma cholinestrease activity because
of either inherited or acquired factors.
17. PANCURONIUM
Bisquaternary aminosteroid muscle relaxant.
Intubating dose 0.08-0.12mg/kg.
Onset 2-3 mins.
Duration of intubating dose 60-120 mins.
The clinical duration of action is long,especially
in the presence of potent inhalational agents or
renal dysfunction as 60% of dose of drug
excreted unchanged through the kidneys.
Does not stimulate release of histamine.
Direct vagolytic and sympathomimetic effects
which may cause tachycardia and hypertension
18. VECURONIUM
Monoquaternary aminosteroid.
Developed in an attempt to reduce the
cardiovascular effects of pancuronium.
Intubating dose 0.1mg/kg.
Onset 2-3 mins.
Duration of intubating dose 45-90 mins.
Depends primarily on biliary excretion
secondarily on renal excretion.
Does not have any direct cardiovascular effects
although potentiation of opioid induced
bradycardia may be seen.
19. ROCURONIUM
Monoquaternary aminosteroid analogue of
vecuronium designed to provide rapid onset
of action.
Intubating dose 0.45-0.9 mg/kg.
Onset 60-90 seconds.
Duration of intubating dose 35-75 mins.
Suitable alternative for rapid sequence
inductions but at the cost of a much longer
duration of action.
20. ROCURONIUM
Stimulates little histamine release or
cardiovascular disturbance.
Mild vagolytic property in high doses which
sometimes causes tachycardia.
Excreted unchanged in the urine and in the
bile and thus the duration of action may be
increased by severe renal or hepatic
dysfunction.
Rocuronium has no metabolites with
significant neuromuscular blocking activity.
Editor's Notes
Ach released from the nerve endings does not combine with Nicotinic (NM) receptor to generate action potential
