We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

Saroyan (2)
1.
2. William Saroyan was born
on August 31, 1908
in Fresno, California to
Armenak and Takoohi
Saroyan, Armenian immigr
ants from Bitlis, Ottoman
Empire. His father came to
New York in 1905.
At the age of three, after
his father's
death, Saroyan, along with
his brother and sister, was
placed in an orphanage
in Oakland, California. He
later went on to describe
his experience in the
orphanage in his writings.
3. Five years later, the family reunited in Fresno. He
continued his education on his own, supporting himself with
jobs, such as working as an office manager for the San
Francisco Telegraph Company.
4. • Saroyan decided to become a writer after his mother showed
him some of his father's writings. A few of his early short articles
were published in Overland Monthly. His first stories appeared
in the 1930s. "The Broken Wheel", written under the name
Sirak Goryan and published in the Armenian journal Hairenik in
1933. Many of Saroyan's stories were based on his childhood
experiences.
5. As a writer, Saroyan made his breakthrough
in Story magazine with The Daring Young Man on the
Flying Trapeze (1934), the title taken from the
nineteenth century song of the same title. The
protagonist is a young, starving writer who tries to
survive in a Depression-ridden society.
Through the air on the flying trapeze, his mind hummed. Amusing it was,
astoundingly funny. A trapeze to God, or to nothing, a flying trapeze to some sort of
eternity; he prayed objectively for strength to make the flight with grace.
6. • I am an estranged man, said the liar:
estranged from myself, from my family, my
fellow man, my country, my world, my
time, and my culture. I am not estranged
from God, although I am a disbeliever in
everything about God excepting God
indefinable, inside all and careless of all.
• —from Here Comes There Goes You
Know Who, 1961
7. • Saroyan published essays and memoirs, in which he depicted
the people he had met on travels in the Soviet Union and
Europe, such as the playwright George Bernard Shaw, the
Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, and Charlie Chaplin.
George Bernard Shaw
Jean Sibelius
Sir Charles Chaplin
8. Before the war, Saroyan worked on the screenplay of Golden
Boy (1939), based on Clifford Odets's play, but he never had
much success in Hollywood and after his disappointment with
the Human Comedy film project, he never permitted any
Hollywood screen adaptation of any of his novels regardless of his
financial straits.
The Human Comedy (1943) is set in the fictional California town
of Ithaca in the San Joaquin Valley (based on Saroyan's
memories of Fresno, California), where young telegraph
messenger Homer bears witness to the sorrows and joys of life
during World War II.
"Mrs. Sandoval," Homer said swiftly, "your
son is dead. Maybe it's a mistake. Maybe it
wasn't your son. Maybe it was somebody
else. The telegram says it was Juan
Domingo. But maybe the telegram is
wrong...
—from The Human Comedy
9. • In 1943, Saroyan married actress Carol Marcus (1924–2003;
also known as Carol Grace), with whom he had two
children, Aram, who became an author and published a book
about his father, and Lucy, who became an actress. By the late
1940s, Saroyan's drinking and gambling took a toll on his
marriage, and in 1949 he filed for divorce. They were remarried
briefly in 1951 and divorced again in 1952 with Marcus.

10. • Saroyan died in Fresno, of prostate cancer at age 72.
Half of his ashes were buried in California and the
remainder in Armenia at Komitas Pantheon near film
director Sergei Parajanov.
