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.

1. Course Description
Conceptual Physics is a year long course designed to
introduce students to the concepts of classical and rotational
mechanics, gravitation, and electricity and magnetism.
This spring, we will focus on electromagnetism, including electrostatics,
electric fields, electricity, and magnetism. You will be asked to employ
algebra skills, although emphasis will be placed on conceptual
understanding of these topics. Concepts will be illuminated through various
demonstrations and individual projects.

My Learning Philosophy
The world is a fascinating place full of
curiosities, both natural and engineered.
If we take time to appreciate these curiosities,
then we will naturally begin to ask questions.
Learning happens when we seek answers, both by finding and
evaluating new sources of information and by synthesizing this
information through a broad range of experiences.
We will all get out of this class what we put into it.
A great recipe for success is to make sure that we all live up to
the school’s Core Values each and every day. We can all hold
each other accountable, including you and me.
In an effort to help you have the best experience in this class, you can expect that I
will do the following:

EXCELLENCE
Demonstrated by arriving
on time and prepared, by
participating fully in class,
and by striving to master
all course concepts.
CURIOSITY
Demonstrated by taking
academic risks, by trying
new approaches and
techniques, and by being
willing to fail often.
RESPONSIBILITY
Demonstrated by being an
active group partner, by
seeking help when
needed, & by completing
all assignments on time.
ACADEMIC HONESTY
My role as a teacher is to
provide opportunities that will
“stimulate intellect, ignite
passion, and shape character”
in each of my students. I hope
to help you develop a passion
for life-long learning. As this is
an individual pursuit, I would
rather have you try and fail on
your own than rely on someone
else’s work. Please refer to the
Academic Honesty section of the
Student & Parent Handbook for
more details.
We ALL should
aspire to live
lives of
meaning and
purpose.

Scope and Sequence
Following is a proposed schedule of the topics we will discuss and the major
assignments to be completed in the Spring Term.
4
Weeks 1 to 2 - Electrostatics
CHAPTER 32: Why do you get shocked when you try to open a door after walking across a carpet? Why
do balloons stick to walls? Charged particles act just like magnets do.
Week 3 - Electric Fields
CHAPTER 33: Remember how any object of mass creates a gravitational field? It turns out that any
charged particle creates an electric fields, which applies a force on any other charged particle.
Week 4 - Electric Current
CHAPTER 34: We know that water always flows downhill (without work being done to it!). Well,
electrons always flow from “downhill” as well from ares of high potential to areas of low potential.
Weeks 5 to 7 - Electric Circuits
CHAPTER 35: Let’s face it, your life would be almost unimaginably different without electricity.
Electricity is considered to be the most important engineering feet of the 20th century. We’ll learn the
basics of how to control the flow of electrons in circuits to generate electricity.
Week 8 - Magnetism
CHAPTER 36: Magnets are fascinating. By now, you should recognize that magnetic forces are derived
from a magnetic field. How do these fields differ from gravitational and electric fields?
Week 9 - Electromagnetism
CHAPTER 37: Did you know that we can turn magnetism on and off with the flick of a switch? Electricity
and magnetism are so closely related that they are actually one entity, just like space-time!
Week 10 - Independent Project
Complete an independent creative project on a topic from a list of given options. Topics will be directly
related to what we have studied this term, but there will be latitude for individual interpretation.
Week 11 - Review
Reinforce previously learned concepts, practice problem solving, and general review for the final exam.
