Welcome to our introductory presentation on linguistics. In this presentation, we will explore the fascinating world of language and linguistics, beginning with the definition of language itself, delving into its key functions, and examining its unique characteristics. We will then transition into defining linguistics, the scientific study of language, and discuss its various types and branches. By exploring these foundational aspects, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview that highlights the complexity and diversity of human language. This presentation is designed to offer both foundational knowledge and insightful perspectives into how language functions as a crucial tool for communication and cultural expression. Join us as we embark on this linguistic journey, uncovering the intrinsic properties that make language an integral part of human existence and a primary focus of linguistic study.

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.

2. • How do children learn languages so quickly?
• By practicing a lot?
• Isn’t there too much information?
• Why does it get more difficult after a certain
time?
4. Be careful!
• What does the Innateness Hypothesis claim?
• We are innately better at learning languages
than animals.
• Nobody disagrees with this.
5. We are innately superior to animals at
languages
• Nobody disagrees with that
• Nobody has EVER disagreed with it
• Never in history
• That’s NOT the innateness hypothesis!
6. OK, so what IS the INNATENESS
hypothesis?
• Human language ability is SPECIAL PURPOSE
• It is separate from other mental abilities
• It works INDEPENDENTLY from other mental
abilities
• The skills involved in language ability are
UNIQUE to language
• And humans are born with this ability
7. Why should language be SEPARATE?
• And why should syntax be separate from
meaning?
• Simple answer:
• Linguists just LIKED the idea
• There’s no actual evidence to belive that!!
8. • Anyway, the Innateness Hypothesis became
very popular (because linguists LIKED the idea)
• Chomsky started looking for evidence of how
our unique language ability works
• Evidence that ALL the world’s languages are
basically the same!!!
• Universal Grammar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• 普遍文法
9. All the world’s languages are basically
the same?
• Deep deep deep deep down – they’re the
SAME
• Why should we believe that?
• Because linguists WANTED to believe it
• There’s no actual evidence!
10. All the world’s languages are basically
the same??
Even though they look really different
Different word order
Or no word order
Or very long words instead of sentences
They are ALL basically the same
• So you can just study one (English) and
understand them ALL!
139. What about invisible movement?
• Well, in 1993 …
• Chomsky said …
• … there’s too much invisible movement!
• Stop the invisible movement!
• Or reduce it to a minimum
• The Minimalist Program
140. Problems with the Minimalist
Program?
• Well, if you stop moving things around
• The world’s languages are obviously NOT the
same
• So what’s Universal Grammar?
• Merge?
• Recursion?
• I have a pen
• I have an apple
• Uh … apple-pen
141. The innateness hypothesis … Universal
Grammar?
• Anything special to language?
• Merge?
• Recursion?
• What do YOU think?
