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. Meat?
• Meat is animal flesh that is eaten as
food.
• Humans are omnivorous and have
hunted and killed animals for meat
since prehistoric times.
• The advent of civilization allowed
the domestication of animals such as
chickens, sheep, fish, seafood, pigs
and cattle, and eventually their use in
meat production on an industrial
scale.
6. Module focus
New developments in preservation and packaging of meat have
lead to a greater variety and range of fresh meat and meat
products.
Preservation and packaging can help to prevent food deterioration
and food poisoning. For wise consumers, this is economical and
also reduces food wastage.
A sound knowledge of different preparation and cooking
techniques for meat will also improve the quality and flavour of
products and meals.
This module explains the different methods of food preservation,
and how the different methods affect the colour, texture and
flavour of meat meals.
7. Meat pigments and colour changes
• Meat color is impacted by the following factors:
(1) Quantity of myoglobin
(2) Chemical state of myoglobin
(3) Metmyoglobin Reducing Activity (MRA)
(4) Cooked color problems
(5) Wrapping film
8. Food spoilage
Food becomes spoiled when it loses water and dries out. All
food contains a quantity of water - the longer the food is
exposed to air the more water it will lose due to evaporation.
Covering and packaging foods with suitable materials slows
down water loss.
Preservation methods such as vacuum sealing or deep-freezing
also prevents water loss.
9. Preventing food spoilage
If raw food is cooked for a sufficient length of time, enzymes and
most micro-organisms are destroyed.
However, if cooked food is stored for any length of time, it can
become re-contaminated by micro-organisms which will then start
to cause deterioration.
To prevent this, all raw and cooked food needs to be handled
hygienically and must be properly packaged. It must then be stored
at the correct temperature to prevent the action and multiplication
of micro-organisms. Raw and cooked meats should be stored in the
refrigerator between 0-3°C. This should be covered and stored
away from other fresh foods in the refrigerator. For extended shelf
life meat needs to be frozen.
10. The shelf life of meat
If the carcase is hygienically prepared, the following carcase storage
life can be expected:
•Beef and veal up to 21 days
•Lamb up to 15 days
•Pigs up to 14 days
•Offal up to 7 days
For retail refrigerated display options, the shelf life of 1-2 days is
normal.
Overwrapped – shelf life 1-2 days
Modified atmosphere packs – shelf life 7-10 days
Vacuum packed – shelf life of up to 10 days
11. The shelf life of meat
The length of time that a food will maintain its quality and be safe
to eat is called its ‘shelf life’.
The shelf life of foods depends on:
● water
● acidity
● hygienic handling
● methods of preservation
12. Water
Food which contains a lot of water often has a shorter shelf
life, e.g. milk. Food containing little water tend to have a
longer shelf life, e.g. nuts.
Acidity
Food which is acidic (or have a low pH) tend to keep for
longer, e.g. citrus fruit.
13. Storage conditions
Food which is correctly wrapped and kept
at low temperatures will keep for longer.
Hygienic handling
Unhygienic food handling will reduce the shelf life of food.
Food can be contaminated by micro-organisms in several
ways: through contact with unhygienic equipment, surfaces, or
transport, and through human contact.
It is important for food handlers to wash their hands before, in
between and after handling raw meat.
14. Methods of preservation
Foods can be preserved in several ways:
a) the removal of oxygen or water;
b) cooking to high temperatures;
c) airtight sealing and freezing at low temperatures.
d) freezing
Foods which have been preserved have a longer or extended shelf-life.
This includes canning, e.g. meat pies and hot dogs and salting
or curing, e.g. bacon and ham.
15. Cooking meat
There are three main methods of heat transfer normally used for cooking meat .
These are:
• convection
• conduction
• radiation
Do you know which cooking method is
used in the meals below?
16. Convection
In this method of cooking, currents of hot air or hot liquid transfer
the heat energy to the food.
When gases (such as air) or liquids (such as water) are heated the
molecules expand, become lighter in weight and so rise up.
Cooler and heavier molecules in the gas or liquid fall to take their
place – until they also become heated and rise up.
17. Convection
Because the molecules of gas or liquid are constantly being heated
and keep moving, circular convection currents are created.
Food which is placed in such a liquid or gas in an enclosed space
becomes cooked. This happens because the heat from the
convection currents is transferred from the air or liquid, firstly to the
outside part of the food then gradually through to the centre.
For efficient and quicker cooking, convection currents in air need to
be kept in an enclosed space such as an oven. As hot air rises, cooler
air falls – so the hottest part in an oven is at the top. Some ovens are
fan assisted so that the hot air is driven around the oven to keep the
temperature even from the bottom to the top.
One example of convection in meat cookery is roasting.
18. Conduction
In this method of cooking, heat is transferred through solid objects
by the vibration of heated molecules.
Those molecules nearest to the heat source first become heated and
vibrate.
Molecules next to those already vibrating also start to vibrate – so
that a chain reaction is set up.
19. Conduction
In this way the heat is transferred throughout the food until it
becomes hot. Heat is transferred by conduction in cooking methods
using hot fat, hot water or steam.
The heat is firstly conducted from the fuel source to the cooking
container (usually made of metal – a good conductor of heat).
The container in turn heats the cooking medium (fat, water or
steam) and finally the food.
Cooking by conduction depends on good contact between the:
• source of heat
• cooking equipment
• food to be cooked
Examples of conduction in meat cookery include stir
frying and shallow frying.
20. Radiation
In this method of cooking, heat is transferred from a heat source in
the form of rays which travel quickly in straight lines.
Food placed in the path of the rays quickly absorbs heat.
The surface of the food nearest to the rays becomes quickly
browned – and regular turning of the food is needed to ensure even
cooking.
21. Radiation – heat rays
Heat rays from gas or electric grills travel down onto the food
below. The further away the food, the further the heat rays have to
travel – so foods cook more slowly.
The grill can be controlled by turning down the heat source, so that
food cooks more slowly.
Heat rays from a charcoal grill or barbeque travel upwards to cook
the food placed above on a grid or spit.
22. Radiation
Radiant heat is fierce and food can be come dry and overcooked. So
the heat must be carefully controlled and the food regularly turned.
Without careful control of radiant heat thicker pieces of food can
burn on the outside before the inside is cooked.
This method is most suitable for thinner, flatter, tender meat cuts.
Examples of radiant heat in meat cookery include barbequing and
grilling.
23. Freezing
• Optimum temperature (0°F or lower)
• Works by completely stopping enzyme activity & inhibiting
spoilage microorganisms
Bacteria
Yeasts
Molds
24. Freezing
• REMEMBER: Thaw meat at refrigeration temps or
in the microwave
• DO NOT THAW AT ROOM TEMPS
25. How long with frozen meat last?
Beef – 12 months
Pork - 6 months
Poultry – 3-6 months
Lamb – 6-9 months
26. Preparing and cooking meat to improve
tenderness
The tenderness of meat depends on the:
• structure of the meat muscle
• age of the animal before slaughter
• part of the animal meat muscle comes from
• the method of preparation and choice of cooking method
27. Tenderising meat with physical force
It is possible to increase the tenderness of meat by using special
food preparation techniques before and during cooking.
The muscle fibres can be physically broken down by mincing and
chopping.
The muscle fibres can be physically separated by using a meat
hammer with a spiked edge. Butchers use this method to prepare
quick-frying steaks.
28. Tenderising meat with enzymes
Certain enzymes contained in plants can be used to tenderise
tougher cuts of meat. These enzymes work by partly breaking
down protein and connective tissue.
Natural plant sources of enzymes can be used as tenderisers:
• Bromelin in fresh pineapple
• Papin in paw-paw
• Ficin in fresh figs
Commercially prepared tenderisers are usually in the form of
powders for easy sprinkling.
29. Tenderising meat with a marinade
Tougher cuts of meat can be placed in a marinade, covered and
stored in a refrigerator for several hours, or overnight.
This helps to hydrate (keep water in) the muscle fibres and to
convert collagen to gelatine.
Marinades usually contain an acid such as lemon juice, tomato ,
vinegar or wine.
30. Tenderness during cooking
One important reason for cooking meat is to make the muscle
fibres more tender. The method by which meat is cooked will
affect its tenderness and texture.
During cooking muscle fibres coagulate ( shrink and harden).
When this happens water is squeezed out of the meat and
shrinks in size.
31. Cooking meat in liquid
To prevent toughening and the loss of liquid from meat, it can be
cooked slowly in liquid.
When meat is cooked with liquid, known as a moist cooking method
(such as stewing, braising and casseroling) the shrinkage and
toughening of meat muscle happens more slowly.
Long, slow methods of cooking using liquids converts collagen in
connective tissue to gelatine, making the meat tender. Moist
cooking methods are especially suitable for less tender meat which
contains more connective tissue.
32. What happens during cooking?
Long cooking – on a low heat, in a liquid - will help make
tougher meats tender. At temperatures of 80ºC and above the
collagen is softened and converted to gelatine (which is
soluble).
Muscle fibres cooked in this way fall apart easily and are easier
to chew.
Acid ingredients (such as wine, lemon juice and tomatoes)
added to the liquid during cooking aid the conversion of
collagen to gelatine and add flavour.
33. Reducing the fat content of meat dishes
During cooking the fat present in meat starts to melt. For healthy
meat meals a grid or trivet used in dry cooking methods helps the
fat to drip away into the cooking container. The melted fat also
helps to stop the surface of the meat from getting too dry.
In moist methods of cookery, the fat melts into the cooking liquid
and eventually rises to the top. For healthy meat dishes this fat can
be skimmed off with a spoon.
34. Preparing dishes with improved flavour
Cooking meat increases the flavour by developing meat
extractives and melting the fat. In dry methods of cooking the
meat extractives cling to the meat surface. In moist methods of
cooking they are absorbed into the cooking liquid.
Extractives contain soluble flavour compounds, which are
stronger in meat muscle from older animals and from muscle
areas used the most. This can provide a depth of flavour to the
dish or meal.
35. Preparing dishes with improved flavour
Fat contains flavouring compounds
which release characteristic smells
associated with lamb, beef and pork
during cooking. The melted fat also
helps to crisp the surface of cooked
meat which increases the flavour.
Apart from the development of natural
meat flavours, cooking helps the
absorption of any flavourings such as
herbs and spices added during cooking.

36. Colour changes during food preparation
When meat is cooked the colour changes from red to brown.
Meat muscle contains a protein called myoglobin (similar to
haemoglobin) which gives meat its red colour. Immediately after
cutting, meat is a purple colour, which turns to bright red after
about thirty minutes as myoglobin takes on oxygen to form
oxymyoglobin.
After several days of exposure to air the surface of meat turns a
brownish colour as the myoglobin oxidises to become
metmyoglobin.
During cooking all these pigments are denatured and the meat will
take on a brownish colour throughout.
