The document summarizes the steps an author took to create pronunciation items for an English test for students. It describes 6 steps: 1) Waiting for other items to be created first before making pronunciation items. 2) Choosing exercises that don't require listening skills. 3) Creating an item to identify silent letters in words. 4) Introducing phonetic symbols. 5) Choosing a word odd-one-out exercise. 6) Assigning points to items from easiest to most difficult. The conclusion states creating test items is difficult and required reviewing course material to identify relevant topics.
This document discusses the rise of graph marketing and how it leverages customer communities, conversations, and identities. Graph marketing places human experiences at the center of marketing. It involves understanding a customer's social and professional networks, interests, and participating in conversations on social platforms. The document recommends that CMOs embrace change, consider how to understand and market to customer graphs, develop networking skills, and employ data scientists to help analyze customer graph data and conversations.

The document summarizes key concepts about the Earth's shape, rotation, geographic grid system used to locate positions, map projections, time zones, and revolution around the sun. It describes how the Earth is an oblate spheroid that rotates daily on its tilted axis, causing seasons, and revolves yearly around the sun in an elliptical orbit. The geographic grid uses latitude and longitude to specify locations based on parallels and meridians.
This document outlines the key steps and characteristics for constructing a proper test:
1) The planning stage involves determining test content, scope, and item development.
2) Writing clear, unambiguous test items and reviewing items with a team are important steps.
3) Pre-testing on a similar group is crucial for ensuring test validity, reliability, objectivity, comprehensiveness, simplicity, and scorability.
4) A proper test should measure what it intends to measure, yield consistent results, be scored the same by different people, cover all relevant material, be written simply, and have a clearly defined scoring system. Practicality and washback, or the test's influence on teaching, are
This document discusses principles for providing effective feedback. It recommends giving both positive and negative feedback in a specific, constructive, kind, and honest manner. Feedback should be given privately and as soon as possible after an event. When giving criticism, suggest alternative behaviors and encourage reflection. Barriers to effective feedback include fear of upsetting the recipient or lack of respect for the feedback source. Overall, following principles like giving specific examples can help teachers provide proper feedback to students.
The social web has already uncovered the biggest resource in healthcare – the patients themselves. So why are hospitals are so behind in their efforts to integrate social experiences with their existing digital and physical touch points? There has been enormous strides in establishing policies and procedures, governance, and enabling technologies that assist with monitoring and reporting requirements. Still, many hospitals today have paid very little attention to the sea change in customer attitudes and behaviors.

This document discusses reasons for and against teaching grammar. It argues that the seven reasons often given for teaching grammar, such as it being tidy or testable, are bad reasons. The two good reasons for teaching grammar are comprehensibility, so students can communicate properly using basic forms, and acceptability, so students know the rules to be accepted in social contexts. The document concludes grammar teaching should focus on learners' needs and teaching English communication instead of just grammar rules.
