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.
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.

because the process is not confined to early childhood, but
takes place throughout one’s life.
4. Situation
According to situation approach, the demands of different
situations in which an individual is , also influences his
personality.
On the basis of Migram’s research study, he states that : “
In certain circumstances, it is not the kind of person a man
is, but it is the kind of situation in which he is placed that
determines his actions.”

Type B individuals are suitable for top management positions, since they
tend to be wise, tactful and creative in making decisions.
21. 1. Trait Approach.
The trait approach views personality as a combination of
various traits.
Traits may be defined as relatively permanent and consistent
general behavioural patterns that an individual exhibits in most
situations.
Trait theorists believe that the personality of an individual is a
combination or sum total of these personality or behavioural
traits that can be discovered through the continuous
observation of his behaviour.
22. Allport’s Trait theory
Gordon.W.Allport was the first theorist who adopted the trait approach for
the description of individual personalities.
According to him, personality vary due to difference in traits.
Allport identified three types of traits namely:
Cardinal traits
These are primary traits that dominate a person’s life.
They are limited in number and only a few people possess these traits.
Eg: Social justice – Mahatma Gandhi.
Central traits
These are primary traits that influence and organize much of our behavior.
These traits are ordinarily used to describe a person, such as honesty,
kindness, submissiveness etc.
Secondary traits
These traits are not as dominant as cardinal or central.
They appear only in selective situations and are not considered as strong
enough to describe an individual’s personality.
23. Psycho-analytical Approach.
This approach uses psychoanalysis –analysis of the psyche or
mind, as the method or understanding behaviour and
personality.
Psychoanalytic theory
It was first created and advocated by Sigmund Freud.
According to him, human mind has three main divisions namely - conscious
mind, semi-conscious mind and the unconscious mind.
The theory states that, these three levels of human mind continuously clash
and compromise to give birth to one or the other type of behavioural
characteristics resulting in a specific type of personality.
24. Conscious mind.
That portion of the mind, of which one is presently aware.
Semi-Conscious mind/sub-conscious mind.
That portion of the mind containing memories that are not presently
conscious but can be easily brought into consciousness.
It is the vast storehouse of easily accessible memories, the contents of which
were once conscious and can be returned to consciousness when needed.
Unconscious mind.
That portion of the mind which is below the surface of awareness, containing
information that are normally not accessible to consciousness.
They can rarely be made fully conscious and only with great difficulty.
It is a storehouse of primitive memories and emotions that are threatening to
the conscious mind and that have been repressed.
Repression refers to the process of pushing the unpleasant information into
the unconscious mind without being aware of it.
25. Based on these levels of consciousness, Freud classified the personality
structure into three components- id, ego and superego.
Id.
It is the raw, savage, immoral part of an individual’s personality that is
hidden in the deep layers of his unconscious mind.
Freud views it as the dark side of human mind that uses the primary process
thinking to satisfy the needs and that acts according to the pleasure principle.
Pleasure principle: Obtain immediate pleasure and avoid pain regardless of
how harmful it might be to others.
Primary process thinking: Simply forming a wish fulfilling mental image of
the desired object. The primary process satisfies the motives through
imagination rather than reality.
Id has no values, knows no laws, follows no rules, does not recognize right or
wrong and only considers the satisfaction of its needs as important.
According to Freud, during infancy, we have only id. As we
grow up, our interactions with our parents and other parts of the real world
help us to convert a part of the id into two other parts of the mind – the ego
and the superego.
26. Ego.
It is that part of the mind that uses the reality principle to satisfy the id.
The ego is formed because the id has to find realistic ways of meeting its
needs and avoiding trouble caused by selfish and aggressive behaviour.
It holds the id in check until a safe and realistic way has been found to satisfy
its motives.
The ego’s goal is to help the id fulfill its needs. It only opposes the id’s wishes
until it finds a realistic way to satisfy them.
Hence ego is considered as the executive of the personality, as it uses its
mental abilities to manage and control id.
Superego.
It is the ethical or moral arm of the personality.
It is the decision making entity, which decides what is good or bad to the
social norms and therefore acceptable or otherwise.
According to Freud, it is that part of mind, that opposes the desires of id by
enforcing moral restrictions.
27. The superego represents society’s rules of right or wrong that often hold the
id in check, not on the basis of what is realistic but on the basis of what is
moral.
OR
As per Freud’s view most of us do not steal or murder not because we do
not want to or because our egos could not find relatively safe ways to do so,
but because our superego hold those desires in check.
Freud put forward a dynamic concept of personality by
conceptualizing the continuous conflict among id, ego and superego. While
the id operates on pleasure principle, for the immediate satisfaction of bodily
tension, the superego concerned with morality prohibits such gratification.
Thus a war-like situation is created between the id and the superego, with the
ego attempting to mediate.
28. Inference :
The extent to which the ego is able to discharge its responsibilities,
decides the personality make-up of the individual. Based on this, individual’s
personality is classified into two:
1. Individuals with strong or powerful ego – have a strong or balanced
personality as the ego maintains a
balance between the id and the superego.
2. Individuals with weak ego – have a maladjusted personality .
* Superego powerful than ego - unfulfilled wishes and impulses resulting
in neurotic personality.
* Id powerful than ego - engages in unlawful or immoral activities
resulting in delinquent personality.
29. Humanistic Approach.
This approach focuses on the study of individual’s subjective
experiences, feelings, private concepts as well as his views of the
world and the ‘self’.
Self theory
The most important contribution in self theory was made by Carl Rogers.
‘Self’ refers to the personality of an individual as viewed by that person
himself.
‘Self concept’ refers to the efforts made by an individual to understand his or
her ‘self’ or it is the subjective perception of who we are and what we are
like.
Rogers distinguished four factors in the self concept:
1) Self Image : This is the way one sees oneself based on the beliefs about who or
what he is.
2) Ideal self : This denotes the way one would like to be, as perceived by the
individual.
30. 3) Looking glass self : This denotes the individual’s perception that ‘this is how’
others perceive about his or her qualities and actually see him. OR
It is the perception of other’s perception.
4) Real Self : This is what one really is.
According to Rogers, a person perceives a situation depending upon his
self concept which has a direct influence on his behaviour.
31. Individual Differences and Personality:
Individual differences stand for “the variations or deviations among
individuals in regard to a single characteristic or a number of haracteristics”.
The differences among individuals that distinguish or separate them from
one another and make one as unique individual, may be termed as individual
differences.
Types or Varieties of Individual Differences
1) Physical differences.
2) Mental differences.
3) Differences in motor ability.
4) Differences in achievement.
5) Emotional differences.
6) Differences in interests and aptitude.
7) Differences in attitudes, beliefs and opinions.
8) Learning differences.
9) Differences in social and moral development.
