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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

3. Diabetes Mellitus
Burden in India(Epidemiology):
• 63 million Indians are affected with Diabetes as of 2012.
• In 2007, the figure was 40 million.
• In just 5yrs, more than 50% increase in prevalence of the disease.
• The total number is said to rise to about 101 million by 2030 and
India, USA and China will be the DIABETIC CAPITALS of the world.
12. Insulin
• Hormone from Pancreas that regulates glucose
metabolism
• Secreted throughout the day
• More quantity is released after the meals
• Insulin deficiency or improper functioning causes
Diabetes
27. Hypertension
Hypertension has been seen as a global burden.
India alone has more than 140 million affected as of
2012
The number is predicted to increase to 214 million
by 2030
Has caused more than 2.4 million deaths
Estimated to cause 4 million deaths by 2030
28. Blood pressure Classification
Blood of Classification
•
•
•
•
Normal
Pre-Hypertension
Stage I Hypertension
Stage II hypertension
Systolic, mm of Hg
<120 mm of Hg
120-139 mm of Hg
140-159 mm of Hg
>= 160 mm of Hg
Diastolic, mm of Hg
and <80 mm of Hg
or 80-89 mm of Hg
or 90-99 mm of Hg
or>= 100 mm of Hg
29. WHEN &
WHY?
• When the normal regulatory mechanisms fail, it
is only then that hypertension develops
• Hypertension is so dangerous because it is silent
and does not give any warnings.
31. Factors influencing
development of
Hypertension
Excess consumption of common salt (NaCl)
Some segments of the populations are “Salt
Sensitive” because their blood pressure is
affected by consumption of salt.
51. Prevention is better than
cure
• Maintain a healthy weight.
• REDUCE WEIGHT if you are obese.
• DO EXERCISE.
• ABSTAIN from SMOKING & HEAVY DRINKING.
• SAY NO to FAST FOODS.
• Reduce the intake of Salt and Sodium in our diet.
(< 2000 mg/day)
52. The DASH Diet
• The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension Clinical trials
(DASH)
• Diets rich in fruits, vegetable and low fat dairy products can
help reduce blood pressure in Hypertensive individuals
53. The DASH Diet includes
• The DASH Diet includes:
• 7-8 servings of grains and grain products
• 4-5 servings of vegetables
• 4-5 servings of fruits
• 2-3 servings of low fat dairy products
• 2 or less servings of meat, poultry and fish
• 2-3 servings of fats and oils
• Nuts, seeds and dry beans 4-5 times /week
• Limited ‘sweets’ low in fat.
54. Reducing Sodium in diet
• Use fresh foods rather than canned food.
• Even if you canned food, read if the label says
“no salt added”.
• Decrease the use of Table Salt.
• Avoid too much sea food
Now I narrowed it down to these two clinical conditions. There is a reason for doing so.. Because of its importance and relevance in day to day life, its relevance in our society. You pick any one from the streets and ask are you or any of your family members are suffering from DM or HTN.. There is a very high probability that the answer will be YES… I referred to DM and HTN as Health burden and not disease or disorder because they are burden to the society, to the families and to the govt.. Infact they are a burden to the nation as a whole. Why? Coz they drain you out. Financially, economically, emotionally, mentally. Billions and Billions of dollars and crores and crores of rupees ar being invested to make drugs for HTN and DM available to the general population at the govt hospitals etc… Hence they are aptly justified as health burdens..
In a nation of above 1.2 billion population, this seems to be a small figure isn’t it, but ill tell you that this is not the case. Why we will just realize this in subsequent slides to come…
Pictorial representation of the facts that I said above, pay notice that, India, chinaand usa are already the top three countries with highest diabetic population. And by the year of 2030, they are going to be almost exclusive countries with the highest percentage of diabetics among all taken together.
What is remarkable in this slide is that more than…50% of the population who died were below 60 yrs of age. Isn’t this say something? It is relatively viable age of the population, the age group of the population that is non- dependant of others.. This is hence a grave concern for the whole society.
How many of you have seen the movie TITANIC? Ofcourse it was a good movie but what I wanted to draw your attention is the ice berg to which the titanic dashed against. The problem with ice berg is tat only a small portion of it is visible to eyes, most of it is inside the water. Now why I gave this diagram here is that, same is the case with these diseases also. The diagnosed cases just form the tip of ice berg. That means that actually whatever data I spoke of was just of this tip of the ice bergs. So most of the population is not diagnosed. They are like the bottom of the ice berg.So, how can we rectify this? When we know what are the risk factors.. Whom should we screen to diagnose? We can only come to know this when we know what are the risk factors for DM.
Obese people have increase susceptibility to insulin resistance.Hypertensives in long run tend to develop diabetes too. You’ll see that if you come to meet a hypertensive and ask him/her than does she have diabetes, there is a good chance that the answer might be yes.Family history of diabetes,, mother father.. Diabeteic , there is good chance that you too can develop that.Lack of exercise cause obesity and hence DM….After age of 45, the life style starts to change, our body mechanism slow down,, we are less active as day passes by and our hormone levels also tend to change. The race of individuals also is responsible to some extent.Pre diabetic.. We will come to know about it in next slides
Do you know why I showed a spike of insulin highest during the breakfast..? Because ideally the breakfast should be most heavy.. What we don’t realize is that we have a gap of almost 10-12hrs between our dinner and breakfast, but there is only 4-5hrs gap between breakfast and the lunch.. So which one should be heavier? Of course breakfast.
Prescribed drugs should be taken regularly once you are stamped Diabetic…
We are going to get obese just because of the fact that people are resorting to junk food, fast food. Coke, chowmins, egg roles burgers are all that is happening in today’s world. What is the question of the hour is that why are we following the WEST? This is a matter of great concern.
This is a picture that I got hold of when I was browsing the web. It showed the evolution of man from the ages of Apes. This is not the modern man, this is the modern man.. FAT and OBESE..
Potassium: In population studies, dietary potassium and blood pressure are inversely related. High potassium intakes are associated with lower BP.Calcium:In the Nurse’s Health Study, consuming the RDA for calcium resulted in lower risk of developing hypertension than consuming lower levels (400 mg/day). Magnesium is a potent inhibitor of vascular smooth muscle contraction and may play a role in blood pressure regulation as a vasodilator
Stroke and Cerebral hemorrhages. Congestive Heart failure and Myocardial Infarctions. Hypertensive Retinopathy, Hypertensive Nephropathy…. Almost all systems are affected to some extent with these two clinical conditions. We are just witnessing a few important ones….
T2 enhanced MR imaging of brain.. hematoma in left temporal lobe . With midline shift…
The idea is not to tell you about DASH per se.. The idea is to tell you about the ingredients that were given in the DASH diet…
And finally we talked of taking common salt less than 2g/day… so what are the steps that can ensure it being done…
Move, workout,hit the gym, run, jog, walk,, whatever you want to do as a part of exercise you can do that.. Don’t just sit around and warm your chairs.. I know this can certainly become difficult for us sometimes.. We don’t get time to eat.. So what do we do about exercise… but as they say “Where there is a will, there is always a way” Isn’t it.. So do it…
Lots of salads, fruits, green leafy vegetables, potassium, calcium, magnesium rich diets, almost all fruits have these… pomegranate, banana and all.. Have those. Along with your staple food…less of fats.
Lets be aware about how these diseases are affecting our society. There is only one way to rectify and treat them, by early and correct diagnosis. And how will that happen? By routine visits to the doctor or to any health practisioner but ensure that any problem if present is identified as early as possible. Because we all ultimately do the same thing, ofcourse by different methods… it is to make the patient free from his disease..
When you are stamped as Diabetic or Hypertensive, make sure you take your medications judiciously. Just because you pressure and sugar is under control, doesn’t mean that you can stop your medications all together… so please continue taking your medications as prescribed.. With this we come to an end to this presentation.. It was a pleasure speaking in front of you all..
