Jamshedpur is located in the state of Jharkhand, India. It has a population of over 1.3 million people and was established in 1908 as the site for Tata Steel, India's first and largest steel manufacturing plant. Jamshedpur has developed into a major industrial city with Tata Steel and other associated industries like Tata Motors forming the economic backbone. The city was planned with wide streets, parks, and separate areas for religious structures in line with Tata's vision. Jamshedpur faces some infrastructure challenges around sanitation and waste management but remains an important industrial and economic center in eastern India.

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.

4. History
• The original name of Jamshedpur was Sakchi. In 1919, Sakchi was renamed as Jamshedpur in
tribute to Tata Steel's Founder Jamshetji Nusserwanji Tata.
• The Railway station at Jamshedpur is known as Tatanagar. Jamshedpur is India's first
cosmopolitan and planned industrial city.
• The modern city of Jamshedpur is the brain child of Sri Jamshetji Nusserwanji Tata who was the
main force behind the industrial revolution of India.
• At the end of 19th century, Jamsetji Tata met steelmakers in Pittsburgh to get the most advanced
technology for his plant and asked him to find a right place for establishing India’s first steel plant.
• After prolonged search for land, Tata finally came across a humble village called Sakchi, which was
blessed with rich mineral resources like iron, coal and limestone.
• Attracted by the rich wealth, water and green hill region, Tata finely decided to set up his steel
plant in Sakchi, which was later named as Jamshedpur in memory of its founder Jamsetji
Nusserwanji Tata.
• In 1908 the construction of the plant as well as the city officially began. The first steel ingot was
rolled on 16 February 1912. It was a momentous day in the history of industrial India. Jamshetji
Tata had set up the industrial unit of Tata Iron and Steel Plant in Jamshedpur.
• While building the city, Jamsetji Tata had said, "Be sure to lay wide streets planted with shady
trees, every other of a quick growing variety. Be sure that there is plenty of space for lawns and
gardens; reserve large areas for football, hockey and parks; earmark areas for Hindu temples,
Mohammedan mosques and Christian churches."
• After Jamsetji Tata his eldest son, Sri Dorabji Tata who led to the further expansion of the business
establishment.
• After independence, Sri Ratan Tata diverted his attention to the well being of the company and
Tata Iron and Steel Plant became one of the pioneering companies of the world under his
guidance. The industrial city of Jamshedpur became one of the developed cities of India.
6. •The Pittsburgh firm of Julian Kennedy and Axel Sahlin was awarded the contract for the designing and engineering
works of Tata Steel Plant. They built the original colony between 1909-12 for housing managers and skilled workers.
•Site exigencies dictated the stratified pattern of housing on high ground on the ridge spurs on the north-west and
western fringes of the steel plant to ensure protection from the factory dust carried by the prevailing western winds.
•The colony was laid out in the grid-iron with alphabetically named 'roads' running east-west and numbered
'avenues' running north-south.
7. •As the Steel production of the plant grew, population of the township increased and the old Kennedy plan became
obsolete.
•Fredrick c. Temple, sanitary officer for Orissa and Bihar states was appointed as the chief engineer for planning of
Jamshedpur.
•The principles of Temple's planning were:
•Gravitational sewerage system
•Street system adapted to contours
•Parkway system in natural drains
•Temple proposed housing of 12 units per acre, balancing it with 1-1 1/2 acre plots of bungalows and 1/4 acre plots
quarters.
•He advocated that the problem of housing could be solved by improving the sanitation and preserving the
infrastructure of the squatter settlements and the lifestyle of the tribal people respectively.
8. •Due to the further expansion of Tata steel in 1930, the township was in immediate need of housing.
•According to his report his work was very much influenced by Earnest Burges who proposed that cities develop
outward from central business and manufacturing districts with working class population nearest to the core.
•Stokes did not have much to do beyond Temple's plan. His main work was to quench the shortage of housing.
9. •The primary motive of Keonigsberger was to implement GARDEN CITY concepts in his master plan for Jamshedpur,
but his motive was partially satisfied.
•He was reluctant to give up and endeavored to put in GARDEN CITY principles wherever space permitted.
•The major problem was that Jamshedpur did not develop as a Garden city. Bustees had developed on the periphery
of the industrial area.
•Intention was to build a leafy suburb at a suitable distance from industrial pollution and haphazard urban growth.
11. Administrative System
• The administration of the city is under multiple hands.
• Jamshedpur Notified Area Committee (JNAC)
• Jamshedpur Utilities and Services Company (JUSCO), a Tata Steel subsidiary
• Mango Notified Area Committee (MNAC)
• Jugsalai Municipality (JMC)
• Adityapur Municipal Corporation (AMC) and
• Gamharia Nagar Panchayat
• JNAC is divided into two parts, one is the Tata lease area while the other is the non-Tata lease area.
The leased area which is 41 km² is managed by JUSCO while the rest is managed by JNAC itself.
• MNAC looks after the residential regions of Mango and Pardih, 18 km2 in area.
• AMC looks after the 49 km2 of Adityapur region comprising the residential as well the industrial
belt.
• The government is considering creating a unified municipal administrative body called the
Jamshedpur Urban Agglomeration or JUA. The proposed body would comprise the areas currently
under the Jamshedpur Notified Area, Adityapur Municipal corporation, Mango Notified Area,
Jugsalai Municipality and the towns of Parsudih, Ghorabanda, Chhota Govindpur, Hurlung,
Luabasa, Dhanchatani, Chhota Gamharia, Gadra, Sarjamdah, Haludbani, Kitadih, Nandup and
Bagbera, which are a part of the Jamshedpur Block, East Singhbhum and Gamharia
Block, Seraikela-Kharsawan. The JUA would cover an area of 150 km square.
12. Economy
• The areas surrounding Jamshedpur are rich in minerals, including iron
ore, coal, manganese bauxite and lime. It is a modern, industrial city; the main industries
being iron and steel, truck manufacturing, tinplate production, cement and other small and
medium scale industries revolving around these products.
• The largest factory is that of Tata Steel , situated almost at the center of the city. Tata Steel is the
largest iron and steel producing plant in India, as well as the oldest. The steel plant covers around a
fourth of the land area of Jamshedpur, and has two inland water lakes.
• The other major factory in the city is Tata Motors with Telcon, which manufactures heavy vehicles
and construction/earth moving equipment. It is the world's sixteenth-largest motor vehicle
manufacturing company, fourth-largest truck manufacturer and second-largest bus manufacturer
by volume.
• Other industries in the city include Tata Cummins Ltd., Lafarge Cement (earlier Tata Cement), Tata
Tinplate, Indian Steel and Wire products, TRF Limited, Timken manufacturers of industrial
bearings, Tata Ryersons, Agrico, Praxair and Brin's Oxygen Company.

• The new tariff system aims at providing 24- hour water supply to consumers from the thrice-a-day
