The document discusses task-based language teaching (TBLT). It defines tasks as classroom activities that focus on meaning over form and involve students comprehending, manipulating, or interacting with the target language. TBLT moves learning from fluency to accuracy plus fluency by integrating the four language skills. The teacher's role is to select and sequence tasks and prepare students, while students participate in groups, monitor their learning, and take risks using the new language. The document outlines the framework of TBLT including the task cycle and language focus after tasks. It notes advantages like meaningful communication and exposure to language, and disadvantages like requiring creativity and resources.
Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT), also known as task-based instruction (TBI), focuses on the use of authentic language and on asking students to do meaningful tasks using the target language. Such tasks can include visiting a doctor, conducting an interview, or calling customer service for help.

Communicative Language Teaching is the cornerstone for approaches that have shifted from a grammar-based language view to a functional view of language where communication is the main objective. Such approaches are CBI (Content-based instruction) and TBI (Task-based instruction). Today, both CBI and TBI are the leading approaches most teachers are currently using to teach a second/foreign language around the world. Both approaches have been proven to be effective, and the most important thing is that students are truly learning to use language to communicate their ideas to different audiences.
THIS IS A METHOD OF APPLIED LANGUAGE TEACHING METHODS. IT HAS BOTH MANY ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES. WE WORKED ON HARDLY WITH MY GROUP. HOPE IT WILL BE USEFUL FOR EVERYONE.
Community Language Learning advises teachers to take their students as “whole person.” Students decide the topic and teachers act to like conselors. The learning is inductive.

This is an experimental study based on exploring the effectiveness of task based language teaching (TBLT) in improving graduate students’ descriptive writing as well as their perception of task based language teaching. The accessible population taken in this study is 410 students enrolled in Graduation at Khawja Fareed Govt. Post Graduate College Rahim Yar Khan. 60 male students have been administered a TOEFL structure test to bring homogeneity. They have been divided into two equal groups randomly. Thus two groups were formed one the treatment group and the other control one. Experimental and control class data were collected through written tests and questionnaires. Written pre and post tests were administered to both classes. Questionnaires were given to the students in experimental group after each of 12 treatment tasks. Data from written pre and post-test and questionnaires were analysed quantitatively. Percentage analysis was run to observe improvement between the groups. Test results revealed highly significant difference in favour of the treatment group. The study also demonstrated treatment groups’ general perception of task based language teaching positively. Findings of this study are inspiring for the teachers to adopt task based language teaching to improve students’ descriptive writing.

The task-based Language teaching is the teaching theory put forward by foreign language teaching method researchers on the basis of the large quantity of studies and practice in the 1980s. It advocates learning from “doing-it” and the interactive learning styles: learning from experiencing, practicing, participating, communicating and cooperating. The national New Standard for English Curriculum advocates the implementing of TBLT in Junior High School in China. At present, many scholars have investigated the application in terms of teaching of reading, writing and so on, but only a few have involved the study about the application of TBLT in oral English teaching. Through the analysis of the present situation of oral English teaching in Junior High School in China, this thesis aims to solve the teaching problems by applying TBLT to oral English teaching on the basis of the previous study.

Wage Systems and Their Relationship with Job Performance.pdfKing Saud University
Introduction:
In the complex ecosystem of modern work environments, the nexus between wage systems and job performance remains a focal point of organizational strategy and employee motivation (Latham & Wexley, 1982). Traditional wage plans, rooted in time-honored principles of job roles and seniority, have provided a stable foundation for compensation strategies. However, the dynamic nature of today’s global market and the ever-evolving skill sets required by organizations necessitate a more nuanced approach to compensation (Aguinis, 2014). Enter competency-based wage plans, which offer a promising alternative by aligning pay with the specific skills, knowledge, and behaviors exhibited by employees (Lawler & Cohen, 1992). This essay embarks on an exploratory journey into the depths of wage systems, dissecting their components, merits, challenges, and their pivotal role in sculpting an organization's culture and effectiveness. Through this analysis, we aim to uncover the intricacies of how wage systems can be strategically implemented to bolster job performance, thereby fostering an environment where both organizations and employees thrive (Noe, 2005; Aguinis, 2014).

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

6. “Introduction
Task-based learning is an alternative approach to
communicative language teaching because a task
involves a primary focus on meaning, real-world
processes of language use and any of the four
language skills.
7. Introduction
😉 Teaching efficiency is improved when the learners
and their learning are the focus of attention instead of
the teacher.
😉 It is a communicative approach
😉 The aim of TBL is to integrate all four skills and to
move from fluency to accuracy plus fluency.
9. 📌 Language is primarily a means of making meaning.
📌 Multiple models of language inform TBI: structural,
functional and interactional models of language.
📌 Lexical units are central in language use and
language learning.
📌 “Conversation” is the central focus of language and
the keystone of language acquisition.
Theory of language
10. 📌 Tasks provide both the input and output
processing necessary for language acquisition.
📌 Task activity and achievement are motivational
📌 Learning difficulty can be negotiated and fine-
tuned for particular pedagogical purposes
Theory of learning
11. ““A piece of classroom work that involve
learners in comprehending, manipulating,
producing, or interacting in target language
while attention is focus on meaning rather
than form. The task should also have a sense of
completeness, being able to stand alone as a
communicative act in its own right with a
beginning, a middle and an end.”
(Nunan, 2004)
12. ““Any approach to language pedagogy will
need to concern itself with three essential
elements: language data, information, and
opportunities for practice”,
David Nunan
14. ““A taskis an activity where the target language is used by
the learner for a communicative purpose (goal) in order to
achieve an outcome.”
“ A taskis a piece of work that must be done, especially
one that is difficult or that must be done regularly.”
(Longman English Dictionary)
(Willis, 1996)
15. “ A task is to give someone the
responsibility for doing something.”
(Longman English Dictionary)
“ A task is any activity that learners engage in to
process of learning a language.”
(Williams and Burden, 1997:168
“In contrast, exercises are activities
that call for primarily form-focused
language use. “
(Ellis, 2003)
16. Why Using Task-Based Approach
TBLT- Engaging Your Students
“ Students may not produce the target language during the free
practice stage because they find they are unable to use
existing language resources to complete the task”.
Richard Frost
17. The TBL framework supports these conditions in a classroom
environment.
18. Teacher Roles
SELECTOR AND SEQUENCER OF TASKS:
A central role of the teacher is in selecting, adapting and/or creating the tasks
themselves and then forming these into an instructional sequence in keeping with
learner neeeds, interests and language skill level.
PREPARING LEARNERS FOR TASKS:
Activities might include topic introduction, clarifying task instructions, helping
students learn or recall useful words and phrases to facilitate task accomplishment
and providing partial demonstration of task procedures.
19. Learner Roles
Primary roles that are implied by task work are:
GROUP PARTICIPANT: many tasks will be done in pairs or in small groups.
MONITOR: in TBL, tasks are not employed for their own sake but as a means of facilitating learning.
Class activities have to be designed so that students have the opportunity to notice how language is
used in communication.
RISK-TAKER AND INNOVATOR: many tasks will require learners to create and interpret messages for
which they lack full linguitic resources and prior experience. The skills of guessing from linguistic and
contextual clues, asking for clarification and consulting with other learners may also need to be
developed.

Analysis
• Students are given an opportunity to reflect and
analyse the new language which has emerged
through the task.
Practice
• Students put the language acquired into
practice.
25. Advantages
1. 1. TBL is applicable and suitable for students of all ages and background.
2. 2. Students will have a much more varied exposure to language with TBL.
3. 3. Students are free to use whatever vocabulary and grammar they know,
rather than just the task language of the lesson.
4. 4. Allows meaningful communication.
5. 5. Students will be exposed to a whole range of lexical phrases,
collocations and patterns as well as language forms.
6. 6. Encourages students to be more ambitious in the language.
26. Disadvantages
1. TBI requires a high level of creativity and initiative on the part
of the task.
2. TBI requires resources beyond the textbooks and related
materials usually found in language classrooms.
3. TBI is not teacher-centered and it requires individual and
group responsibility and commit mention the part of students.
4. There is a risk for learners to achieve fluency at the expense
of accuracy.
