This document discusses how Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) teachers can promote their FCS classes by harnessing the opportunities provided by House Bill 5 (HB 5). HB 5 created endorsements that FCS programs can prepare students for, such as Business and Industry or Public Services. It also allows FCS courses to be used in coherent sequences for these endorsements. The document provides examples of FCS courses that can be used for different endorsements and career clusters. It also addresses questions about the implementation of HB 5, such as how coherent sequences are determined and the use of certifications for a performance acknowledgement. Overall, the document aims to help FCS teachers understand and take advantage of the opportunities HB 5 creates

Starting With What the Learners Have: Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) in ...Teacher Arzadon
John Dewey once said “The beginning of instruction shall be made with the experience learners already have . . . this experience and the capacities that have been developed during its course provide the starting point for all further learning.” The Philippine educational system has provided various mechanisms so that diplomas provided from kindergarten up to PhD may be granted to alternative types of learners who for various reasons are unable to attend or complete the formal schooling track. Assessment and certification programs to recognize prior education and learning include several components like challenge examinations, skills demonstration, portfolio assessment, credit transfer, site visits, bridging and review classes, and many more. Such alternative credential-granting mechanisms are institutionalized through various policies and laws and embedded in the new Philippine Qualification Framework (PQF). Reinforcing the system are the following: the commitment of the Philippine government to “Education for All” (EFA) goals, especially in reducing the high dropout and adult illiteracy rates and the pressure to supply skilled labor to local and foreign industries. Other enabling factors include the meritorious system of promotion and the availability of new forms of knowledge acquisition like computer-mediated online learning. However the available RPL mechanisms in the Philippine education are still highly credentialist in nature and unable to recognize and certify the actual knowledge that learners do have. At the basic education level, it is still limited to the use of paper and pencil challenge examinations. Furthermore, RPL system supports two contradicting positions – at one hand it is viewed as a means to promote libertarian, student-centered and inclusive type of education, registering the possibility that schooling is not the only model of education. But at the same time, it is also seen as a tool to promote the agenda of a credentialized and neoliberal education.

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.

32. “There’s not one specific thing or skill
people have to have to work for us. But I
can tell you why we fire people: soft
skills. We hire for hard skills. We fire for
soft skills. The ability to interact and
communicate with others or behave
ethically and take responsibility for
things tends to be where people tend to
break down.”
