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.

2. 1. SHORT STORY.
•Shorter in length than a novel, a short story is a
fictional prose work which usually focuses on one
plot, one main character (with a few additional
minor characters), and one central theme. It aims at
unity of effect and creation of mood rather than on plot.
Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Philosophy of Composition”
describes a short story as one that “should be read in
one sitting, anywhere from a half hour to two hours. In
contemporary fiction, a short story can range from 1,000
3. 2. NOVEL
•A novel is a narrative prose work of
considerable length that talks about
significant human experience. The novel’s
beginnings date back to as early as the writing
of “Tale of Genji” by Murasaki Shikibu; later, in
the early seventeenth century, European
novels came to be written (Prahl, 2019).
4. 3. MYTH.
•Derived from the Greek mythos, which
has a range of meanings from “word,”
through “saying” and “story,” to “fiction,”
a myth is a symbolic narrative of
unknown origin and tells events which
are partly traditional and associated
with religious beliefs.
5. 4. LEGEND
•A legend is traditional tale which
is thought to have historical
bases.
6. 5. FABLE
•A fable is an instructive story about
human social behavior with
personified animals or natural
objects as characters and always
ends with an explicit moral message.
The concept of time and space is also
not specific in a fable.
7. POETRY
•Poetry is a means of sharing experiences,
telling a story, or through the use of
language in a particular way. As opposed to
prose writing, poetry in written form has a
distinct structure and words may form
patterns of sound, verse or thought.
8. POETRY
•The creation of pictures with words is
very important in poetry, hence poets
carefully choose words which will
appeal to the imagination of the
readers and create vivid visual
images.
9. POETRY
• There are some distinctive characteristics of poetry
which sets it apart from prose:
• A. the visual patterning of lines of unequal and
shorter length,
• B. the frequent division into stanzas (verses),
• C. the possibility of unusual shapes, and
• D. the distinctive use of white space which draws
our eye into the compressed essence of feelings and
ideas.
10. POETRY
•Poems are usually shorter than novels, may
come in many shapes and forms, and are often
(but not always) divided into stanzas (or verses).
But just like prose, poems also share similar
features like subject (what it is about), theme
(what it says about the subject), and a
mood/feeling/tone (how the author feels about
this or how the author wants the readers to feel).
11. TO MAKE MEANING OUT OF POEMS, TWO BROAD
APPROACHES CAN BE USED:
• A) Narrative poem – It tells a story with an orientation,
complication, crisis, and resolution, or
• B) Lyrical poem – It conveys an experience, or ideas,
thoughts or feelings about a subject without necessarily
having ‘something happen.’
12. •Poems also come in many forms. These
forms are distinguished from the other by the
choice of structural units (couplets, quatrains,
and their arrangement with the overall
poem), the layout of a poem on the page,
and the organization of the lines of the poem.
13. HERE ARE SOME OF THEM:
• 1) Acrostic. It is a poem which consists of vertical first letters name of
the topic while the horizontal words describe the topic.

dramatic story in four-line stanza with a

simple rhyming schemes (usually abcd,
sometimes abab) and refrains, topics are often
drawn from community life, local and national
history, legend and folklore; while the verse tales
are usually of adventure, war, love, death and

• Anon, ‘On a Tired Housewife’.
• Here lies a poor woman who was always tired,
She lived in a house where help wasn’t hired:
Her last words on earth were: ‘Dear friends, I am
