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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Technology Integration Rationale
Teaching mathematics requires much, much more than a
chalkboard, notebook, and a pencil. In the 21st Century, it is
essential to incorporate technology in all academic areas – and
mathematics cannot be forgotten.
By integrating technology into a 6th grade unit on ratios,
students will be able to experience mathematics first
handedly with a whole new perspective. Through interactive
applications, activities, videos, podcasts, blogs, and websites,
multiple learning needs will be touched and students will be
able to be engaged in a whole new world of mathematics by
moving away from the traditional teaching methods.

Teachers from across the United States can use Gateway as a resource for lesson plan ideas, activities, and a ton of blogs varying from subject and topic areas. By reading Peggy James’ blog on ratios, teachers can get an idea of how their own students can apply mathematics, and ratios specifically, to the world in which they are a part of.Source: http://www.thegateway.org/blog/peggy/ratios-real
By incorporating YouTube videos, students can access them from at home as well. Also, by incorporating media that students are familiar with, they will be even more eager to learn because it is something that they can relate to and actually have fun with.Teachers can also use websites like Pinterest to find activities and videos that other teachers have used in the classroom.Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eI689QxaaoSource: www.pinterest.com
Creating using the Math tools via Kidspiration, this assignment is meant to assess a student’s understanding of ratio concepts. Students can interactively use the cubes to show their preliminary understanding of ratios. The second half of the assignment reverses their understanding, asking them to type the three ways to show the ratio presented (4:2, 4 to 2, 4/2). By using applications such as Kidspiration, students can move away from the traditional pena nd paper assignments. Students can even create their own assignments for their peers to complete!
