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.

7. Title of the novel:
The title of the novel A Grain of Wheat means. Ngugi chooses a
Christian myth and a religious framework to depict the violent
freedom movement movement in Kenya. .It is taken from the New
Testament, and refers to a passage from Paul’s first letter to
Corinthians which is placed as an epigraph at the very beginning in
Kenya. The title of the novel is itself from the Bible:
Ngugi applies this Christian epigraph to the gory nationalist struggle
against colonialism. Referring to the martyrdom of Waiyalu during
the early phase of this struggle, the novelist observes Waiyakis
blood contained within it a seed, a grain, which gave birth to a
movement whose main strength thereafter sprang from a bond
with the soil & quote Waiyaki sacrifices his life. But he rises again
phoenix-like% the form of a potential and formidable movement.
8. This movement is organically linked to the soil of the people so
as to provide succor, strength and inspiration to them in
designing and building a new nation corresponding to their
aspirations. Emphasizing the need for sacrifice by one and all for
a national cause, Kihika says:
I die for you, you die for me, we become a sacrifice for one
another. So I can say that you, Karanja, are Christ. I am Christ.
Everybody who takes the Oath of Unity to change things in
Kenya is a Christ. Christ then is not one person. All those who
take up the cross of liberating Kenya are the true Christ for us
Kenyan people .
