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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

4. Q1
Leigh Steinberg is an American sports agent who was born and raised in Los
Angeles by his parents, a teacher and a librarian, who pushed public service
along with ambition. He has represented the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft
a record eight times. Steinberg is often credited as the real-life inspiration of the
sports agent from Cameron Crowe's film _____ _______ in 1996.
Cameron Crowe originally wrote the screenplay for Tom Hanks. Crowe took so
long to write the screenplay that by the time the film was ready to be made, he
felt Hanks was too old to play the part. Tom Cruise would go on to play the role
of the protagonist.
Which movie is it?
7. Q2
______’s _____, or medial epicondylitis, is tendinosis of the medial epicondyle on the
inside of the elbow. It is in some ways similar to its ‘tennis’ counterpart, which affects the
outside at the lateral epicondyle.
This is the most common elbow injury for rock climbers, whose sport is grip intensive.
The pain is normally caused due to stress on the tendon as a result of the large amount of
grip exerted by the digits and torsion of the wrist which is caused by the use and action of
the cluster of muscles on the condyle of the ulna. However, more than 90% of cases are
not actually from sports-related injuries, but rather from labor-related occupations with
forceful repetitive activities (such as construction and plumbing).
What is it?
11. Q3: Identify X and Y.
X was an American pro boxer who held the world heavyweight title from 1952 to 1956. He
is the only Heavyweight champion to have finished his career undefeated. X has been
included by boxing historians in lists of the greatest boxers of all time, and is currently
ranked by BoxRec as the fifth greatest heavyweight boxer in history.
His knockout-to-win percentage of 87.76% remains one of the highest in heavyweight
boxing history.
In late July 1969, he starred in the filming of The Superfight: X vs. Y. The two boxers were
filmed sparring, then the film was edited to match a computer simulation of a hypothetical
fight between them, each in their prime. It aired on January 20, 1970, with one version
having X winning and the second version having Y winning.
15. Q4
Anschluss refers to the annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany on 12 March
1938. The word's German spelling, until the German orthography reform of 1996,
was Anschluß and it was also known as the Anschluss Österreichs.
Anschluss is also referred to what transpired on 25th June 1982 between West
Germany and Austria, which the Algerians call as faḍīḥa Khīkhūn. El Comercio,
the local newspaper, printed the match report in its crime section, under the
headline "Forty thousand people presumably scammed by twenty six Austrians
and Germans".
What change was implemented by FIFA as a consequence of this ‘crime’?

The final pair of group matches in international tournaments always start
at the same time.
18. Q5
Ernő Rubik, invented the Rubik’s Cube in 1974 as a means to represent his desire
to merge forms of Art. Rubik called his game “The Magic Cube.” In 1978 it came
to the attention of the Ideal Toy Corporation, who purchased the rights to the
puzzle and began manufacturing and distributing it in 1980. Officials at Ideal did
not like the “Magic” part of the title, worrying that customers might associate it
with evil spirits, and initially considered renaming the puzzle _______ ____.
They eventually settled on the Rubik’s Cube, despite the fact that few people at
the time knew Ernő Rubik invented the game.
What was the name suggested earlier, an attempt to easily solving an intractable
problem?
21. Q6
George Headley has played for West Indies, mostly before the Second
World War. He is regarded by critics as one of the best batsmen from the
Caribbean and one of the greatest batsmen of all time. In his history of
West Indies cricket, Michael Manley described Headley as "the yardstick
against whom all other West Indian batsmen are measured". He was
given the nickname ___ _____ _______ by commentators, and was the
first world-class batsman from the West Indies who was black.
FITB. His nickname will remind you of an Australian who was sent back
to the pavillion for the last time by Eric Hollies.
24. Q7: Identify X and Y
X literally “duck game", is a game played on horseback that combines elements from polo
and basketball. It is the national sport of Y since 1953. X is Spanish for “duck", as early
games used a live duck inside a basket instead of a ball.
Accounts of early versions of X have been written since 1610. The playing field would
often stretch the distance between neighbouring ranches. The first team to reach its own
ranch house with the duck would be declared the winner.
X was banned several times because of the violence associated with it . Horsemen were
trampled underfoot, and many died in knife fights started in the heat of the game. During
the 1930s, X was regulated by Alberto del Castillo Posse, who drafted a set of rules
inspired by modern polo. The game gained legitimacy to the point that the President of Y
declared X to be Y's national game in 1953.
28. Q8

32. Q9: Which tournament? Where was it held?
The_______ Cup is one of the oldest field hockey tournament running till date in the
world and the oldest in India. Started in 1895, it is organised by Hockey Bengal and
used to be held at Y located in the Maidan region of Kolkata .The Cup was initially
organized by the Indian Football Association, until the Calcutta Hockey League took
over in 1905.
Dhyan Chand famously wrote in his autobiography “this tournament has had a non-
stop run. World Wars I and II did not affect the tournament. Threats of Japanese
bombs and actual bombings in Kolkata while the hockey season was on also did not
prevent the tournament from being held. That being said, it is sad to think that the
tournament had to yield to the communal frenzy which gripped the nation in 1946-
47.”
35. Q10: Who’s Y? Name the biopic.
The idea of the biopic came about when Robert De Niro read the autobiography
upon which the film is based. Although disappointed by the book's writing style,
he became fascinated by the character of Y. He showed the book to Martin
Scorsese in the hope that he would consider the project. Scorsese repeatedly
turned down the opportunity to direct the film, claiming he had no idea what the
book was about, even though he had read some of the text. After nearly dying
from a drug overdose, Scorsese agreed to make the film, not only to save his own
life but also to save his career. Scorsese began to relate very personally to the
story of Y, and in it he saw how the boxing ring can be "an allegory for whatever
you do in life”, which for him paralleled moviemaking, “you make movies,
you’re in the ring each time.”
38. Q11
X was a Czechoslovak long-distance runner best known for winning three
gold medals at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki.
He is the only person to win the 5,000 metres, 10,000 metres and Marathon
in the same Olympic Games. He was nicknamed the "Czech Locomotive".
In February 2013, the editors at Runner's World Magazine selected him as
the Greatest Runner of All Time.
What was so special about his Marathon triumph?(A feat that has never
been repeated in athletics and in most likelihood will continue to remain
so )
39.
40.
41. Answer
Emil Zátopek
He decided at the last minute to compete in the first ever marathon of his
life and ended up winning it.
42. Q12: Identify Y.
Y retired from international cricket following the 1999 World Cup in England but
was persuaded to return to add experience to Kenya's squad for the 2003 World
Cup in South Africa where he helped Kenya become the first non-Test match
playing nation reach the semi-finals of the World Cup. During the Super Sixes
match against Australia, Y gave the Australians a scare with figures of 8.2-6-7-3
and collecting Man-of-the-match honours. Y announced at the end of the
tournament that he would be retiring, this time for good.
Y represented Kenya in a Davis Cup tie against Egypt in 1988, making him the
only one to captain his country in both representative cricket and tennis
competition.
