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.
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
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.

Step 1: Nutrition Assessment
Nutrition Assessment (NA)
• Obtain adequate information in order to
identify nutrition-related problems
• Systematic process of
– Obtaining
– Verifying and
– Interpreting the data
• Make decisions about the nature and cause
of nutrition related problems
• Re-assessment at subsequent encounters
addresses Monitoring and Evaluation
parameters
6. Step 1: Nutrition Assessment
6
Critical Thinking Skills
• Determining appropriate data to collect
• Determining the need for additional information
• Selecting appropriate assessment tools and procedures
• Applying the assessment tools in valid and reliable ways
• Distinguishing relevant from irrelevant data
• Distinguishing important from unimportant data
• Validating the data
7. Nutrition Assessment
7
Results of Nutrition Assessment
• Leads to appropriate initial determination that a
nutrition diagnosis/problem exists
• If a nutrition diagnosis can be made, the RDN
labels the problem and creates a PES* statement
in Step 2 of the Nutrition Care Process
*PES: Problem, Etiology, Signs/Symptoms
8. Nutrition Assessment
8
Results of Nutrition Assessment
• If a nutrition problem is not identified, further
information or testing may be necessary to make
a determination
• If the assessment indicates that no nutrition
problem currently exists that warrants a nutrition
intervention, the term “No nutrition diagnosis at
this time (NO-1.1)” may be documented
9. Nutrition Assessment
9
Results of Nutrition Assessment/Reassessment
The RDN will determine
• If a nutrition diagnosis/problem exists
• The plan for continuation of care, specifically:
o Progression through the NCP
o Need for additional information/testing
o Discharge from nutrition care
10. Nutrition Assessment
10
Domains (Categories)
1. Food/Nutrition Related History
2. Anthropometric Measurements
3. Biochemical Data, Medical Tests, Procedures
4. Nutrition-Focused Physical Findings

epidemiological studies
16. Nutrition Assessment
16
Summary
• Nutrition Assessment is the first step of the NCP
• Dynamic process that develops throughout the NCP
• Data is used for all other steps of the NCP
• New information may provide reason for
reassessment or change in approach and intervention
18. 18
Step 2: Nutrition Diagnosis
• New concept for dietetics profession
• Definition of Diagnose
• The act of identifying a disease or condition
from it’s signs and symptoms
• Investigation or analysis of the cause or nature
of a condition, situation, or problem.
• This implies
• Pre-defined list of potential conditions
• Pre-defined criteria (signs and symptoms) to
which the current situation can be compared
19. PES Statement
19
The nutrition diagnosis or nutrition problem is
summarized into a structured sentence called
• Nutrition diagnosis statement
OR
• PES Statement
20. PES Statement
20
This statement has 3 distinct components:
• P (Problem)
• E (Etiology)
• S (Signs and Symptoms)
– This information is obtained during the nutrition
assessment phase of the Nutrition Care Process
22. Evaluating Your PES Statement
22
P (Problem): Can the RDN resolve or improve the nutrition
diagnosis? Consider the “intake” nutrition diagnosis as the
one more specific to the role of the RDN.
E (Etiology): Determine if this is the “root cause” for the
problem. If addressing the etiology will not resolve the
problem, can the RDN intervention lessen the signs and
symptoms?
S (Signs and Symptoms): Will measuring the signs and
symptoms indicate if the problem is resolved or improved?
Are the signs and symptoms specific enough that the RDN
can monitor and document resolution or improvement of the
nutrition diagnosis?
23. Evaluating Your PES Statement
23
PES Overall:
Does the nutrition assessment data support
the specific nutrition diagnosis, etiology, and
signs and symptoms?
24. Example PES Statements
• Excessive Fat Intake related to limited access to healthful
options – frequent consumption of high-fat, fast-food meals
as evidenced by serum cholesterol level of 230 mg/dL and
patient report of 10 meals per week of hamburgers and fries
• Excessive Energy Intake related to unchanged dietary intake
and restricted mobility while fracture heals as evidenced by
5 lb weight gain during last 3 weeks due to patient report of
consumption of 500 kcal/day more than estimated needs
• Swallowing Difficulty related to post stroke complications as
evidenced by results of swallowing tests and reports of
choking during mealtimes
24
25. Nutrition Diagnosis Etiology
25
Identifying the etiology leads to selection of
the nutrition intervention aimed at resolving
the underlying cause of the nutrition problem
If the intervention cannot be aimed at
resolving the underlying cause, as is the case
in Physiologic-Metabolic etiologies, then the
nutrition intervention is targeted at
minimizing the signs/symptoms of the
nutrition problem
26. Nutrition Diagnosis Etiology
26
Etiologies are grouped by the type of cause or
contributing risk factor. See Nutrition Diagnosis Etiology
Matrix for definitions.
• Beliefs-Attitudes
• Cultural
• Knowledge
• Physical Function
• Physiologic
• Social-Personal
• Treatment
For the following, the category alone may be the cause or contributing
risk factor of the Nutrition Dx
• Access
• Behavior
27. Nutrition Dx Reference Sheets
27
A reference sheet is available for each nutrition
diagnosis. Each reference sheet contains
4 components. See sample reference sheets.
• Problem or Nutrition Diagnosis Label
• Definition of the Nutrition Diagnosis Label
• Etiology (cause/contributing risk factors)
• Signs/Symptoms (defining characteristics)
– Grouped by
• nutrition assessment category, and
• potential indicators of the specific nutrition diagnosis
28. Nutrition Diagnostic Terminology
28
Three general domains
• Intake
– Excessive or Inadequate intake compared to
requirements (actual or estimated)
• Clinical
– Medical or physical conditions that are outside normal
• Behavioral-Environmental
– Relate to knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, physical
environment, access to food, or food safety
32. Nutrition Intervention
32
• Planning:
o Prioritize the nutrition diagnoses
o Review practice guidelines (EAL) and policies
o Confer with the patient (+ others)
o Set goals and determine expected outcomes
o Defining the specific nutrition intervention strategy
o Define time and frequency of care
35. Nutrition Intervention
35
Use of Nutrition Interventions Based on Practice Setting
• Food and/or Nutrient Delivery:
• institutional settings (hospitals, long‐term care)
• home care
• Nutrition Education‐Content:
• institutionalized settings
• Nutrition Education‐Application:
• outpatient/non institutionalized settings
• private practice
• community
• Nutrition Counseling:
• outpatient/non institutionalized settings
• private practice
• community

• all practice settings
39. 39
Critical thinking skills for Nutrition Monitoring &
Evaluation:
• Selecting appropriate indicators/measures
• Using appropriate criteria (previous status, nutrition
intervention goals, or reference standards) for comparison
• Defining where patient/client is now in terms of expected
outcome
• Explaining variance from expected outcomes
• Identifying factors that help/hinder progress
• Deciding between discharge or continuation of nutrition
care
Nutrition Monitoring & Evaluation
40. Nutrition Monitoring & Evaluation
40
Determines whether the patient is meeting the
nutrition intervention goals or desired
outcomes
A nutrition reassessment is needed to identify
whether the nutrition-related problem still
exists and evaluate the progress made
toward resolving the problem.
41. Nutrition Monitoring & Evaluation
41
Is the nutrition intervention strategy working
to resolve the nutrition diagnosis, its
etiology, and/or signs and symptoms?
Assesses the patient’s progress by comparing
specific markers or nutrition care indicators
against recognized, science-based standards
or baselines.
42. 42
Definitions
Nutrition Monitoring: preplanned review and measurement of
selected nutrition care indicators of patient/client’s status
relevant to the defined needs, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition
intervention, and outcomes.
Nutrition Evaluation: the systematic comparison of current
findings with the previous status, nutrition intervention
goals, effectiveness of overall nutrition care, or a reference
standard
Nutrition Care Outcomes: the results of nutrition care that are
directly related to the nutrition diagnosis and the goals of
the intervention plan
Nutrition Care Indicators: markers that can be measured and
evaluated to determine effectiveness of nutrition care
Nutrition Monitoring & Evaluation
43. 43
Nutrition Care Outcomes: intermediate outcomes to
other broader health care outcomes
