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 slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.

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. Do you know which
numbers are given to
different topics?
Do you know who
invented the system?
3. What is Dewey decimal
system?
organises non-fiction &
reference resources
each subject is given a number
and the books and other items
are arranged on the shelves in
number order, according to their
topic.
4. Melville Dewey 1851-1931
Worked as a library assistant in a
college library to help pay for his
education.
At 21 (1873) he invented the system
that is now used to classify books and
other items including internet resources,
in libraries around the world.
Known as the Dewey Decimal
Classification system it organises
information into 10 main subject areas.
5. How Dewey organised
information
000 General Knowledge
Almanacs, encyclopedias, new media, computers
100 Psychology & Philosophy
Information about death & dying, ethics (ways of behaving),
feelings, logic (about thinking)
200 Religions & Mythology
Religions of the world – Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Bibles.
300 Social Sciences & Folklore
Careers (occupations or jobs) , transport, environment and
recycling, about families, how governments work, community,
money.
400 Languages & Grammar
Languages spoken including Chinese, English, French, German,
Italian, Japanese, Spanish, sign languages & dictionaries.
6. 500 Maths & Natural Science
Maths, Animals, Chemistry, Dinosaurs, Fish, Geology,
Insects, Physics, Planets and Plants
600 Medicine & Technology

them.
900 Geography & History

information about wars, Atlases.
7. Dewey divided the 10 subject areas
into smaller topics. Each topic has its
own special number
500s are divided into 520, 520, 530
…
Each of the 10s is divided into 510,
511, 512 …
A decimal point is an even more
specific sign of what the book is
about
8. Here’s how Dewey divided
590s
Suppose you are looking for a book on
butterflies
500 Natural sciences
590 Zoology (animals)
595 Other invertebrates (animals w/o backbones)
595.7 Insects
595.78 Lepidoptera (moths & butterflies)
595.789 Butterflies
9. CALL NUMBERS
The Dewey numbers form part of the
call number of a book
1st three letters of the author’s
surname follows
Call number – ‘address’ of the book
on the shelves
The call number for a book on
mammals by J.S. Brown would be
599 BRO
11. Cataloguing Fiction
Organised by collection location
(junior, senior, picture)
Then first three letters of
author’s surname. EG:
Stephenie Meyer = MEY
Books by the same author
appear in alphabetical order on
the shelf
12. Now it’s your turn …
In pairs organise a set of fiction and
non-fiction books as they would
appear in shelf order on the
tables.
Ask Ms Roache or myself for
assistance
We will check when you are
completed
