The document discusses moving from a fixed mindset about ability being innate to a growth mindset where ability is developed through effort. It provides examples of how the author was considered talented at English in school due to reading a lot, but struggled at university without strategies for explicit learning. The author now believes that anyone can get better at anything through creating the right conditions for practice and learning. In the classroom, this means interacting with students in a way that believes in their potential regardless of perceived ability levels.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

11. Mindset and Me
High-achieving at school
Told (and believed) that I was „talented‟ –
„good at English‟
Assumed that it ran in the family – genetic
justification
12. Mindset and Me
Countless
hours
reading, playin
g word
games, talking
to English
teachers etc
etc
13. Mindset and Me - then
Got to University
Game had changed – introduced to concepts
and ideas beyond textual analysis
Floundered – no experience of failure, explicit
learning, learning strategies
Significant impact on results
Significant impact on self-perception and self-
esteem
14. Mindset and Me - Now
I do not have natural talent in English
High-achievement was as a result of time
spent in an environment which developed the
necessary skills
I could get much better as an analyst / writer if
I created the right conditions and chose to
I could do the same with
Maths, fishing, Swahili, playing the
oboe, teaching, leadership, conkers etc etc etc
15. In the classroom?
Gaining an evidence-based belief in the
potential of all children
Changed the way I interact with students in
ways that are impossible to control…
… and impossible to fake
16. Matthew Syed – Bounce – on
Talent
“The talent theory of expertise is not merely
flawed in theory, it is insidious in practice, robbing
individuals and institutions of the motivation to
change themselves and society.”
“Even if we can‟t bring ourselves to embrace the
idea that expertise is ultimately about the quality
and quantity of practice, can‟t we accept that
practice is far more significant than previously
thought? That talent is a largely defunct concept?
That each and every one of us has the potential to
tread the path to excellence?”
