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.

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.

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.

Straight Outta Compton and I, Daniel Blake
1.
2. Universal Pictures is a member of the Motion Picture Association of
America (MPAA) and is one of Hollywood's "Big Six" studios
Legendary Entertainment is an American media company based
in Burbank, California. The company concluded an agreement
to co-produce and co-finance films with Warner Bros., and
Universal Pictures .
3. Budgets
The movie has a $28-million production budget. Universal Pictures
and Legendary's Straight Outta Compton has earned $200 million at
the worldwide box office. The current domestic gross of the N.W.A
biopic is $161.1 million and international gross will be $38.9
million.
Straight Outta Compton was the No. 1 R-rated August opener ever,
grossing $60 million during it's opening weekend.
4. 4 Reasons Why the “Straight
Outta” Campaign was
Promotional Genius
Social media timelines were filled with “Straight Outta” posts,
created by the Straight Outta Somewhere generator.
The campaign lets fans represent where they’re from with an
easy to use content generator, customized by adding a photo
and the city they’re from, and then download the image to
share on their social media channels. Consumers quickly
flooded the website to create their personal image, generating
over 143,000 posts using #StraightOutta.
5. Humour factor. While many people used the generator to show hometown pride, some took advantage to take
a more humorous approach, poking fun at celebrities and public figures, recently making headlines.
6. Memes work. Memes are fun, easy to create and have a strong likelihood of being shared by consumers. This
campaign leveraged that trend and offered consumers an opportunity to create memes in solidarity, or even
competition with one another.
7. Celebrity engagement. With consumers seeing their favourite celebrities joining in, it didn’t take long for fans to
get on board with the campaign.
8. Being a High-Concept
Film
Being a high concept film means the film being recognisable to audiences.
The film itself has a wide range of target audiences.
• Fans of the rap/gangster genre.
• Fans of the N.W.A
• Fans interested in the star appeal
• Young people who relate to the ‘real characters’ and situations in the film.
9.
10. The film is set in the 1980s and gives a view of life at the time and links to
historical events relating to racial tension. The N.W.A are significant as they
became successful artists who broke out of the social restrictions of their
community, offering a positive representation of ethnicity.
Dr Dre and Ice Cube were the co-producers of the film which had a role in the
film success and also helping it making it go mainstream and being a high-
concept film.
11. The Trailer
The trailer is a traditional global and national marketing form to promote the
film. Different trailers were produced to target different audiences, which used
more conventional ways of selling the film to the audience, including:
Establishing the main characters, the names of the stars themselves, not the
actors who played them.
This appeals to the older fans of N.W.A. However, younger fans would be
attracted by the iconic cultural significance of Ice Cube and Dr Dre within the
hip-hop industry.
12. Straight Outta Compton clearly defines characters who
are recognisable due to the stereotypes and archetypes. It
has a simple narrative with universal themes. The film has
high production values which are evident in the
cinematography, costumes, settings and special effects. It
has high profile stars, who are also related to the films
genre. Along with this the film has a visual appeal,
including lavish sets and expensive action scenes. The film
also has highly dramatic and hyperbolic plot situations.

Outta Compton a
mainstream film?

through the acquisition of Alliance Films, along with other distributors and studios in 2003.
Wild Bunch is one of the world’s leading players in the field of international

release and its gross $258,168. I, Daniel Blake
became Ken Loach's biggest success at the UK box
office, especially as the film sparked debate in the
country.
16. I, Daniel Blake however, targets an audience of the older demographic
and/or anyone who is in the same situation or knows anyone in that
situation.
The film addresses contemporary British social issues such as poverty
and the welfare system. The film conveys a clear left wing political
message and criticises specific government policies. The film itself can
cause controversy in its audience as some audiences may feel a sense of
emotional attachment with understanding how the characters feel
whether or not they are or they know someone in the same position.
Audience
17. Ken Loach
Ken Loach’s films are said to fit into a tradition of film making known as social
realising. Films of this genre are concern with representing the lives of ordinary
people. The “aesthetic” of the film can be thought of as the overall look or feel of a film.
Loach provides a useful example to illustrate this concept as his films tend to have
some recognisable characteristics. Within Loach’s films he provides a useful aesthetic
to illustrate this concept that his films tend to have some recognisable characteristics.
Loach is known for directing films that have a political purpose rather than providing
entertainment, which may be the reason to why I, Daniel Blake connects with certain
audiences. His style is suggested that his aim as a film maker is to have an impact on
the audience.
18. What Makes I, Daniel
Blake an independent
film?
I, Daniel Blake has an aesthetic style of film making with Ken
Loach using hand held cameras to establish realism. As well s
this the film has a distinguishable content and style which is
known by Ken Loach. It has a clear low budget which is shown
through the lack of known acting stars, the setting is known to
those in the UK, but worldwide not as much. The props of food
banks, flats, clothes, all show the lack of money put into the
film.
