The document discusses the importance of literacy in the learning area of Physical Development Health & Personal Education (PDHPE). It identifies several key components of literacy that are relevant to PDHPE, including visual literacies, critical literacy, and developing students' speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. The document also discusses strategies from the Literacy Project for improving students' literacy, such as activating background knowledge and using comprehension strategies. Overall, it argues that teaching literacy is not a distraction from core PDHPE topics, but rather an essential part of helping students fully understand and engage with subject content.
A Neglected Aspect of Education in Pakistan
Given the significant role that textbooks play in many countries of the developing world, the presentation highlights issues related to the use of the textbook in rural Pakistan, and identifies ways to improve upon current practices. The findings presented in this presentation emerge from my analysis of teachers’ experiences and practices related to the use of textbooks in schools. Since the existing knowledge base is limited on teachers’ actual use of the textbook, the presentation attempts to fill in this gap by highlighting the various issues related to teachers’ perceptions and practices. These include teachers’ limited use of textbooks, access to textbooks, information gaps and limitations of textbooks – all working to restrict the use of the textbook as a learning resource. The presentation concludes by offering recommendations on improving textbook usage in Pakistan.

This work is aimed at developing all the skills of students in teaching foreign languages through interactive methods. Thus, the research topic is called “Interactive Methods of Teaching Language Skillsâ€. The study discusses the importance of perfectly organizing all skills in foreign language teaching. Modern methods and interactive methods will be carefully studied and applied. It is also important to increase the effectiveness of foreign language learning using modern methods, away from traditional teaching methods, and to use it as an effective teaching tool in the formation of language learning skills. The aim of the research is to provide foreign language teachers with a brief overview of the interactive methods used at different stages of language skills development, especially the various tools aimed at developing students ’cognitive skills.

Fostering interest in literacy The Framework of Reading Literacyaskrunu
The Framework of Literacy Instruction is a guide of how to choose text and instructional strategies which can support learners in a literacy environment.
Effective readers are dependent upon effective literacy programs
Teachers should assess their learners and establish a program which speaks to the students interests, identities, concerns, and strengths/weaknesses.
Students should be given an environment which is conducive to learning how to effectively read and write.
Students should be given the opportunity to connect with the text through cultural identity, interest, and critical analysis

Competently Brought to Life - Bringing The Competency Framework for EAP Teach...Steve Kirk
This was a workshop delivered at 'The Janus Moment', BALEAP Biennial Conference (20 April 2013), together with colleagues from the Universities of Glasgow and Reading. We looked at ways of bringing alive the Competency Framework for EAP Teachers (CFTEAP) for teacher development.
Session Summary:
Putting theory and research into practice is a challenge in any context. Doing it in a way that is transferable to a variety of contexts provides an even greater level of challenge. It could be argued that this situation applies to the Competency Framework for Teachers of English for Academic Purposes (CFTEAP), published in 2008.
After three years of development the framework has gone on to provide excellent guidance for the professional development of teachers, and those responsible for training them. However, there is further scope to make the framework a practical resource for both teachers and teacher trainers. This practical workshop will look at concrete examples of materials that enact certain CFTEAP criteria to help teachers demonstrate their knowledge and progress in EAP. It will also look at materials that can be used by teacher trainers in facilitating the development of others.
The first part of the workshop will take a hands-on look at materials produced to help teachers structure both their study of EAP and development as an EAP practitioner. The materials provide a framework within which teachers can develop their knowledge and skills in a staged and scaffolded way.
The second part will look at a set of materials that have been developed for use by teacher trainers to provide help and guidance to early career professionals.
Finally, reactions and comments will be gathered from the workshop participants in order to feed into the further development and completion of this resource.

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.

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”.

12. LANGUAGE AND LITERACY IN PDHPE AND THE AUSTRALIAN CURRICULUM
According to the Australian curriculum for assessment and reporting
•
Literacy involves students in listening to, reading, viewing, speaking, writing and creating oral, print, visual and digital
texts, and using and modifying language for different purposes in a range of contexts.
•
explicit teaching of literacy is to be extended into other learning areas as students engage in a range of learning
activities that challenge the significance of literacy in a learning area.
Each learning area ensures that students’ literacy development is strengthened so that it supports subject -based learning. This
means that:
•
all teachers are responsible for teaching the subject-specific literacy of their learning area
•
all teachers need a clear understanding of the literacy demands and opportunities of their learning area
literacy appropriate to each learning area can be embedded in the teaching of the content and processes of that learning
area. This will enable learning area teachers to:
•
identify the general level of expected language and literacy skills for each year level that they are teaching
•
plan how to teach specific language and literacy knowledge and skills essential to students’ understanding of
learning area content.

13. IS SPENDING TIME TEACHING LITERACY JUST A DISTRACTION FROM MY CORE
DISCIPLINARY BUSINESS?
•
Literacy encompasses the knowledge and skills students need to access, understand,
analyse and evaluate information, make meaning, express thoughts and emotions,
present ideas and opinions, interact with others and participate in activities at school and
in their lives beyond school.
•
Effective learning includes students being able to manage their own learning and to be
self-sufficient; working harmoniously with others; being open to ideas, opinions and texts
from and about diverse cultures; returning to tasks to improve and enhance their work;
and being prepared to question the meanings and assumptions in texts.
Editor's Notes
Welcome to this slide share presentation Literacy across disciplines. This presentation will focus on the importance of literacy in PDHPE learning environments and synthesis knowledge and insight developed throughout my studies in Literacy across disciplines unit at the university of Canberra. Main ideas will be linked to teaching practice, tutorials, lectures and readings derived from course content and represent how literacy evolves student learning and their engagement in PDHPE.
Throughout the presentation particular attention will be payed to literacies relevant to PDHPE and how they demonstrate componets of literacy that inform teaching pedagogy.
this slide is linked with a hyperlink leading to the ‘NSW department of education and communities’ site website: the website itself provides resources and frameworks for identify struggling readers and building on literacy requirements for effective literacy teaching in PDHPE). The document illustrated in this slide is linked to the website and provides information on the teaching and learning cycles around explicit teaching of literacy in PDHPE.
This model in this slide introduces the phases of Assessing, planning andprogramming for explicit teaching. The model is linked to the nswdepartment of education and communities website. The model can be used as a document for informing the development of literacy curriculum and the processeses involved in a teaching and learning cycleWhen planning and programming for PDHPE, teachers will need to accurately determine what skills, knowledge and understandings students currently have. ThenIdentifying student needs. This aspect of Planning is an integral part of the total teaching and learning cycle and assists teachers in selecting appropriate activities, content and assessment strategies for improving the literacy skills of a student. The model is a reflective and interconnected process often involving whole school approaches to literacy.
Strategies for improving a students literacy skills in speaking and listening, reading and writing are oulined inNSW department of education and communities’ website.Some of the strategies to consider when teaching literacy in PDHPE learning contexts includes Strategies for improving a students literacy skills in speaking and listening, reading and writing. the strategies for effective listening and speaking, are dependant on a teachers ability to: points from slide – reading, points from slide, writing points fro slide.Strategies for effective reading: slideStrategies for effective Writing is a point of establishing ….. point 1: (SPOKEN - this can be achieved through providing a range of written, spoken and visual sources related to the field (videos, computer software, newspapers, magazines, diagrams, graphs, as reference materials)
SPOKEN - In my Literacy project for Literacy across disciplines at the university of Canberra I linked literacy learning in PDHPE with three stages of first observing a students ability to read and comprehend the instructions and descriptions on a catching activity card, then identifying what was read well and what was not read so well and what strategies the reader was using to comprehend the PDHPE specific text. The second stage was then experimenting with teaching strategies that could improve the students ability to understand a text and apply it to a learning scenario, Through reflecting on the components that make up cycles 1 and 2 of the project I identified james as a domiately visual learner and decided to use a visual text to convey meaning of the topic area (Which was relative to the skill of catching). The text I used was a instructional video linked on Youtube which incorporated aspects of ICT into PDHPE lessons and incorporated the use of both visual and auditory forms of learning in the learning process. The third phase was refining the learners ability to understand PDHPE specific texts, this mean that main challenges would need to be recognized and learning strategies implemented.At a later phase I analyzing the students improvement and teaching effectiveness. This way teaching strategies for literacy learning can be adjusted to suit the individual learning needs of students.A link is provided at the bottom of this slide that directs you to the literacy project I conducted.
The challenges of the literacy project was concerned with the students ability to understand how language is used in a variety of situations and how it is expressed in different forms of text. Another challenge for the learner was that Texts were specific to a subject area and used specific terminology. This was linked with the challenge of creating meaning of descriptive words that helped form comprehension of the whole text.Recognising the challenges, I informed my teaching practiced and developed strategies for improving learningThe teaching aim was to
When Conducting the literacy project one of the text I referenced was cris (tovanis text do ireally have to teach reading) and I used tovanis text to inform my own thinking of how literacy strategies can be used by students and how teaching literacy strategies can later develop a students ability to better comprehend what it is that is being read. The strategies used in cycle 1of the project included:Background knowledge - the student – james, had a knowledge of catching and ways to catch that helped create meaning from the text. Self-questioning - James questioned he’s own catching technique and compared his idea of catching with what he read from the text. He would also question what parts he would read in what order at times.Fix-up strategies Sensory imagery – where he would perform the instructions described in the text using his hands to act out movements of catching or other movements read in the text passage.Comprehension strategy –descriptive words and headings were used for understanding what he would read about. This also signified that the student was purposefully engaging in what he was reading aboutHe Adjusted his rate of reading and identified Key words Used his Finger while reading And made Summarisationsafter reading instructions. He would reiterate what he had read in his own words so he could convey meaning.These strategies applied in the literacy project helped determine explicit teaching appoches to help develop james’s literacy ability
During the development of my Literacy project I found some useful resources I accessed through the University of canberras e-reserve page. Using this resource linked at the top of the slide linked with the questions outlined I developed my understanding of how literacy works in various learning situations and the dynamics in how it applies to the learning of all students. This specific text takes a look at the essential components of effective reading instruction. (The presentation can be paused to explore the insights I gathered through this text)The questions outlined in this slide were associated with my own engagement of content in the litarcy across disciplines unit at the university of canberra.. From reading and reflecting on this resource …
The ideas presented in this slide reflect ideas presented in the the previous slide and can be paused to gather insight from my reflections during the Literacy across disciplines unit.
In this slide The Australian curriculum and for assessment and reporting website has been used to identify the components that make up literacy from a teaching and learning perspectives with appreciation of how literacy is applied in a key learning area and more information can be linked through this slide. According to the The Australian curriculum for assessment and reporting there has not yet been developed a specific literacy curriculum for the learning area of PDHPE. Although this, literacy is regarded as a significant learning component of the PDHPE curriculum and Teachers may find further opportunities to incorporate explicit teaching of Literacy depending on their choice of activities and the individual learning needs of their students. Students can also be encouraged to develop capability through personal and relevant initiatives of their own design.
Focus on Literacy is a useful starting point for meetings and professional development activities related to literacy. It addresses the key elements of the State Literacy Strategy and provides information about the effective teaching of literacy in an explicit and systematic manner.\ Having established an understanding of the literacy demands of each subject, teachers should examine their teaching programs andidentify opportunities for systematic and explicit literacy instruction
