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

3. For twenty three million students nationwide, the school day begins and ends with a trip on a school bus; and here
at Columbus Air Force Base, we have fewer than 200 students on any given day riding our school buses. As the
beginning of the school year approaches, please take the time to familiarize your student with the Rules of Conduct
for bus riders
The Student Handbook from each of our school districts contains specific guidance and a code of conduct students
are to follow. Bus transportation is a privilege extended only to students who display good conduct while preparing
to ride, riding or leaving the bus. Continued disorderly conduct or persistent refusal to submit to the authority of the
driver shall be sufficient reason for a student to be denied transportation. Improper conduct of family members which
occurs off the school bus will be addressed by installation officials.
Additionally, parents should exercise proper judgment when they observe or it is reported to them by their students,
whenever improper behavior has occurred on the bus or at the bus stops. Parents should: contact the parents of
the child (ren) involved, school authorities and/or the Columbus School Liaison Officer. Parents should not address
grievances directly to the other children involved, unless there is an immediate, life-threatening situation.
An overview of the proper Rules of Conduct is provided below. Take a moment to review it and convey the
contents to your children.
Any questions, please contact the School Liaison Officer, at 434-2792 or via email at: slo@columbus.af.mil
RULES OF CONDUCT
Be orderly, quiet and considerate of people and their property in the vicinity of bus stops.
Be ready when the bus arrives.
Bus drivers have the authority to assign seats, give directions, and implement rules for the safe and orderly
conduct of students and will report any violations.
Acceptable public behavior will be expected of all bus riders.
Pass in front rather than behind the bus when crossing the street to or from a bus.
Do not enter or leave the bus when it is in motion.
Heads or arms must not be extended from bus windows.
Avoid eating/drinking on the bus and help keep the bus neat.
Shouting, fighting, offensive language, or smoking will result in loss of bus privileges.
Remain seated until the bus stops at your destination.
Students are required to have parental permission in writing of any changes in
regular transportation arrangements.
Video technology is installed on all buses to assist with the security and safety of all.
Students who violate the regulations can have their bus privileges revoked.
Unauthorized persons are not permitted on the buses -- this includes parents.
Parents should develop a plan in the event your student misses the bus or the bus fails to show, especially
in the case where parent(s) depart the home before the bus arrives.
Parents who choose to wait with their children (in their vehicles) MUST park opposite of the school bus stop,
in order to allow for a direct, unimpeded route to the stop.
