Abstract
The Sufis or Mystics were the propagators of love, affection, mercy, brotherhood, fraternity and harmony all over the world at any time of the era. We can see such great personalities in every nook and corner of the world. If the Bagdad and Ajmeer were the centers of some Sufis others were from different parts of the world. Despite their regional, seasonal, social and any other differences, they were the carriers of peace and harmony. The accounts of the introduction of Islam and Sufism are shrouded in myths and legends, especially the accounts of great saints like Jalalud- Din Tabrizi , shah Jalal Mujarrad , Ghiyasud - Din Aulia and Azan Faqir have to be based only on pious legends and local iraditions. Assam witnessed a lot Sufis, such as Jalalud- Din Tabrizi , shah Jalal Mujarrad , Ghiyasud - Din Aulia and Azan Faqir who were the symbols of social harmony and peace and tranquility in pluralist Assam. Ajan Fakir is a familiar name all over Assam. Though a Muslim saint, he is known among and respected by both the Hindus as well as the Muslims of Assam. His unique contribution is the composition of devotional songs in Assamese language known as Jikirs. The Jikirs continue to be sung by Assamese Muslims till date. The Guwahati Station of All India Radio also regularly broadcasts Jikirs sung by well-known singers. It is not unlikely that the Muslim saint was influenced by the tradition and the style of Naam composed by the Vaishnava saint Mahapurush Shrimanta Sankardev.
It is supposed that Ajan Fakir alias Hazrat Miran Shah along with his brother Hazrat Nabi Shah came from Baghdad to India in spiritual pursuit. They first spent considerable time at the dargah of Hazrat Moinuddin Chisti at Ajmer and then at the dargah of Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia at Delhi. As per latest researches, their association with these two Sufi centers had abiding influence on them.
On the whole, this paper attempts to describe the main characteristics of Sufism and also attempts to throw some light on the life and teachings of the saints of Assam in general and that of Ajan Fakir in particular.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
