2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.

1. The names of the actors are placed right at the top so that the public immediately know who they are
especially since their surnames are made more noticeable.
The overall poster itself is telling a story which acts as an enigma. The names of the participants are
placed at the top, followed by an anonymous victim who could represent death and show to the public
what these people will have to face. This is then followed by complete darkness, illustrating that their
futures are unknown, which causes the public to wonder who will be able to survive these threat and
who wont.
One of the dominant colours used in
this poster is turquoise. After looking
online I found that this colour
represents patience and creativity. This
corresponds with how the killer handles
his victims, taking their bodies and
turning them into art, wax sculptures-
something that takes time and patience.
Another meaning behind this colour is
secrecy and deception. This illustrates
how people are tricked by the
antagonist and are left unaware of the
truth behind what happens behind the
closed doors of his wax museum and
the realism behind his sculptures.
Additionally it also represents good luck
which could be seen as ironic, as well
as show that the person on the poster
wasn’t lucky enough to save herself.
The tagline is placed slightly beneath
the centre of the poster. It consists of
three words each ending in a full stop.
The way these words are presented
resembles a check list, which could
signify the set of steps that somebody
is following, which in this case is the
killer.
In addition this could also be used as
a summary of the main focus of the
film, which revolves around the killer
preying on the teenagers, killing them
and then displaying them in his

used for the font is dull in order for it not clash with the colour used for the release
date underneath it. In this case the small print is used to separate the release date
from the title since they both have similar colours which could prevent each of them
from receiving enough attention.
The effects applied to the title of the film causes those who look at it to film disorientated. This corresponds
with the twisted mind of the antagonist and theme of the movie.
However the colours used such as the yellow and how it shines could represent the light at the end of the
tunnel since it contracts with the darkness surrounding it. On the other hand it could also represent caution
which is why it shines, so that it captures people’s attention and acts as a warning that something isn’t quite
right.
