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.
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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Module 6 PREPOSITION
1. PREPOSITION – is a word used to relate nouns or pronouns to other words in a sentence PREPOSITION – followed by a noun or pronoun called the object of a preposition
2. SINGLE WORD PREPOSITION EXAMPLES Aboard amid between About among betwix Above astride beyond Absent atop but Across barring by Afore before concerning After behind despite Against below during Along beneath except Alongside beside excluding
3. SINGLE WORD PREPOSITION EXAMPLES following next regarding for of round from off since given on than in onto through including opposite thru inside out throughout Into outside towards midst over under near past underneath
5. COMPOUND WORD PREPOSITION EXAMPLES instead of left of near to next to on to (contracted as onto) out from out of outside of owing to prior to pursuant to regardless of right of subsequent to thanks to that of where as Two words according to ahead of apart from as for as of as per as regards aside from because of close to due to except for far from in to (contracted as into) inside of (note that inside out
6. COMPOUND WORD PREPOSITION EXAMPLES Three words preposition as far as as well as by means of in accordance with in addition to in case of in front of in lieu of in place of in point of in spite of on account of on behalf of on top of with regard to with respect to
7. Role of a Preposition Prepositions are important when constructing sentences. A preposition sits before a noun and pronoun to show the nounand pronoun’srelationship to another word in the sentence. Examples: It is a container for butter.(The preposition "for" shows the relationship between "butter" and "container".) The eagle soared above the clouds.(The preposition "above" shows the relationship between "clouds" and "soared".)
8. Ending a Sentence with a Preposition As a rule, a sentence should not end in a preposition. (However, there are several factors to consider.) Examples:a. That is a situation I have not thought of. (The word "of" is a preposition. Writers should avoid ending sentences in prepositions. This is because, a preposition should sit before a noun.) b. She is a person I cannot cope with. (The word "with" is a preposition.)c. It is behavior I will not put up with. (This example ends in two prepositions: "up" and "with".)
9. Not a Serious Error Where possible, you should avoid ending a sentence in a preposition. However, after shuffling the words so that the preposition is not at the end, the re-structured version often sounds contrived and unnatural. Examples:a. That is a situation of which I have not thought. (This version is grammatically more pure than the one above. In this example, the word "of" sits before "which").b. She is a person with whom I cannot cope. c. It is behavior up with which I will not put. (This example sounds extremely contrived.)
10. Reword to Avoid Often, the best solution is to re-word the sentence: Examples:a. That is a situation I have not considered. (There are no prepositions in this sentence, and it has the same meaning.)b. It is behavior I will not tolerate.
11. Leave the Preposition at the End If the sentence sounds too contrived after it has been reworded, another option is to leave the preposition at the end of the sentence. Ex.: There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about. (This is an example of a sentence that should be left with the preposition at the end.)
43. You go buy the tickets and I'll watch for the train.
44.
45. c. Heat the soup up. / Heat the soup. d. Give up the chase. / Give the chase. (Often, the preposition is required. These two versions have different meanings.)e. She will not stand for shoddy work. / She will not stand shoddy work. d. Where are you going to? / Where are you going?
46. Object of a Preposition The words after a preposition are said to be the 'object of the preposition'.Examples:a. The cat ran under the car.(The words "the car" are the object of the preposition "under".)b. Can you give this parcel to him tomorrow?(The word "him" is the object of the preposition "to".)
47. As covered in the first lesson for preposition, a preposition usually sits before a noun (i.e., a word like dog, man, house, Alan). However, a preposition can also sit before a pronoun (i.e., a word like him, her, which, it, them). This is important because the object of a preposition is always in the 'objective case', and pronouns change in this case. (In general, native English speakers have little trouble forming the objective case.)
48. Examples:a. Can you give the parcel to him?("He" changes to "him" in the objective case.)b. I went to the cinema with them.("They" changes to "them" in the objective case.)
49. Who and Whom The word 'whom' is the objective case of 'who', and this pairing causes some confusion. (This is covered more in the lesson Who and Whom.)Examples:a. Andy saw the scouts, at least one of whom was armed, through the mist. ("Whom" - objective case after the preposition "of")b. Against whom did you protest if there was nobody present? ("Whom" - objective case after the preposition "against")
