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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest. In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
2. Complicated – difficult to
analyze, understand, or
explain.
From Latin* – complicate (combine,
entangle, intertwine – fold together)
3. Complex – hard to separate, analyze,
or solve. From Latin* – complexus (a
multitude of objects.
*Note that Latin is a language that was brought to Italy 1,000
B.C. and was used and spread largely by the Roman Empire
5. Thought for today.
“Complexity is not an illness. Things can be
and often are complex. In my view,
complexity should be viewed as a
challenge to overcome or ‘marker’ of
something needing further understanding.
However, the presence of complexity can
be a symptom of a much worse malady, the
lack of understanding. The presence of
complexity usually comes from a lack of
understanding over a topic or area. It takes
a high level of understanding to make
complex topics or areas simple for others.
A very high level indeed!”
6. So why then do we keep things
complex?
Lack of understanding, or
Lack of care in finding a way to make it
simple, or
Disagreement that complexity is a problem
7. Lack of understanding.
It is not possible to make
something simple unless it is first
understood. I encourage you to
embrace this idea and quickly
use it. Don’t let the idea that you
may not understand something
well enough to make it simple
bog you down emotionally.
8. Instead, use it as a gauge on your
dashboard (like an oil light). When
something is complex and isn’t
becoming less complex, use that as an
indicator light that there is something
there you don’t understand. The FASTER
you do this, the more successful you will
become. Some people, sadly, spend their
entire life hiding from the idea that they
may not understand.
9. Lack of care in finding a way to
make it simple.
Some people have the point of view that
things are complex and that is just the
way it is. While this is a valid point of
view – I feel that it lacks a level of care
to bravely go in and battle the
complexity until one perseveres and
emerges able to explain complex topics
easily to others. It takes a lot of work.
10. It takes a lot of bravery to spend the
time understanding something well
enough to draw it out on a white board
or explain it using very easy to
understand words and sentences.
Care can involve making others needs
more important than your own. In
deciding to take hours to go through
complex information so that another
person can use the fruits of your labor
in minutes is a high level of care.
11. Disagreement that
complexity is a problem.
Some people like complexity and don’t
feel there is any issue with it. I’ve heard
professionals say they like that things
are complex – they will jokingly say
things like “job security.” Our job
security is in making things simple. If
complexity is something you love, TTR is
not the company for you. I say this with
care, not frustration, anger, judgment, or
contempt.
12. It takes a lot of care and courage (see #2 above)
to go in and spend the extra time to SOLVE
COMPLEXITY because it IS a PROBLEM.
Complexity is a problem for the person who
doesn’t have your level of understanding or
education and is trying to do a job. They
desperately need to understand how to tax
something or how to get money back in the door to
offset an audit. It is very complex to them and
they need help. Would you turn your back on
them?
13. Why don’t I prefer complicated words
or difficult to read sentences?
I am a lover of language and
communication. And I love all the
complicated words and sentences and
books.
That said, I am willing to put aside my
love of beautiful words and complex
topics to do a job that others have not
yet (heretofore) been willing to do. I am
willing to put others’ understanding
before my own love for words.
14. Using difficult to understand
language or words is no longer fun
for me –
it now feels like I’m trying to be a
bully or know it all or show off how
much more I know than another
person –
it is mean hearted in my mind
because I know that some person
out there will suffer from the feeling
of not understanding and all the
frustration that goes along with that.
