Define the humanities
As described by J. McAteer in the LIB101 introduction video, the humanities that we focused on in this class were “art, literature, history, philosophy and religion”.
Art can be broken down into numerous different forms ranging from hand drawn pictures, theater, and even entire buildings. In week four we saw J.M. Sweeney (2010) explain in detail how religion dedicates the various different structural pieces of their buildings to the artwork of their faith. A rather ingenious idea really once you start to think about it. How else would you be able to spread the word of your faith to those that could not read or spoke a different language?
We dove into literature right out of the gate during week one with Homer’s epic,
The Odyssey
. Literature is a great way to accumulate a wealth of knowledge and spread ideas. These days we use literature as an escape from reality, some use it as a doorway to greater knowledge, and others use it as a way to put their ideas on to paper. Literature is a great tool for preserving these ideas and stories throughout history, assuming of course, someone doesn’t decide to burn down the library.
History, the past, as it is written and also discovered by other means. We have acquired most of our knowledge of the past from literature and stories passed down throughout the years. We are constantly seeking and discovering more clues about our past by means of archaeologists, deep sea treasure hunters and the occasional lucky find in some farmers field. History is one of the best teachers.
When it comes to teaching, how is it best to start? In fact, it would seem the best way to start learning is to form a question, then another, and another. Socrates used this method as a way to understand the world around himself. One cannot truly understand something until they dissect each working part and figure out the how’s and why’s. Philosophy has taken its place in history as an exceptional way to teach and learn. Not only does it help us to understand the world around us, but it also enables us to discover different parts of ourselves.
Throughout history people have turned to religion to help them understand the reasons for events that were beyond their comprehension. It has guided those that are able to assist the less fortunate, given people higher standards and morals to live up to and provided explanations for experiences. It has brought like-minded people together so they could succeed as a community, rather than struggle as an individual. This is how I define the Humanities that we focused on in this class.

Define the humanities
For me, it is hard to put the definition into words. I guess for me the humanities are the study of what influenced our society today its learning our history. For example, the video talks about how philosophy is necessary for democracy because we must evaluate our t.

2500 years ago, Athens was a well-known city in ancient Greece where a sloven person stopped people on the way to ask them strange and psychedelic questions. He used to ask people what is truth? What is morality? He not only used to ask questions but also used to incite people to ask questions. He thought people die after living a purposeless and meaningless life besides one-sided thinking. Do you know who this person was? This person was such a brilliant mind who laid down the foundation of philosophy in the West. This person was called Socrates.
What a heart-shattering event happened with Socrates? You will find it later in this post. You should have heard about the names of some great philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Marcus Aurelius, and the list is endless. But when we talk about their philosophies, people become afraid as they think it is difficult to understand them. People can't understand such deep and abstract conversations. Thus, people lose their courage, but you don't need to be afraid. Today, we will take you on a journey of knowledge, wisdom, and intellect that will blow your mind. There is so much learning in the post that you will enjoy. Today, we are going to meet the greatest philosophers in history. It will be a joy ride.

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.
