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.

minutes)
2. If the pupils saved some more time from other reading section,
they can give a bit more time for it.
3. The essay is about an issue or a subject of general interest and
more possibly contemporary issues (like Tourism year 2011).
The essay topic will require you to present your opinion or
explain your views about the assigned topic.
4. You have a maximum of 25 minutes to plan, and write, your

Eka Dev Adhikari
22. 1. Once you like the look of your plan, write it neatly into
an actual essay. Expand your notes and outline by
using complete sentences and by adding complete
explanations that include specific details and
examples. Be sure that all the details and examples
you provide in your essay are directly relevant to your
response to the essay topic. In other words, stay on
topic!
2. Once you have finished your essay, check for errors and
make corrections by crossing out with a single line (and
write the correction above the line if necessary).
23. Is the entire essay on topic?
Did you write in complete sentences? Every
sentence should have a subject and verb.
Make sure your essay is about a page to two
pages in length. Your essay should not be shorter
than 200 words, or way too long essay is also not
desirable.
Check for errors in spelling, punctuation,
capitalization, and everything else you have that
might make the writing less specific.
24. 1. First paragraph (Introduction): This introductory
paragraph must include your ANSWER to the
question. It’s a great idea to include the essay
topic/question in your answer. For example, if the
essay question asks you if you prefer to live in the
city or the country, you could start your essay by
writing the following: If I had to choose between
living in the city or the country, I would choose the
country………..Now add three supporting ideas.
Again, just list them briefly. This paragraph does not
have to be too lengthy. four to five sentences would
be fine.
2. Second paragraph (body): This paragraph is all
about the first supporting detail that you mentioned
in paragraph one. It should be, at least 5-6
sentences in length.
25. 3. Third paragraph (body): This paragraph is all about the
second supporting detail that you mentioned in
paragraph one. Again, it should be, at least, 4-6
sentences in length.
4. Fourth paragraph (body): This paragraph is all about
the third supporting detail that you mentioned in
paragraph one. Try to write 4-6 sentences.
5. Fifth paragraph (conclusion): Your concluding
paragraph will be very similar to your introductory
paragraph. Include your answer to the question and
your 3 supporting ideas. This paragraph can be very
short.
26. Essay Topic: Tell about a hobby that you have
and why it is important to you. Use your
personal observations, experience, and
knowledge to support your essay.

when he brought that first bear home. Anytime
I'm feeling down, I can just pick up a bear and I

33. Patriotism
Patriotism means love of mother country. People do have patriotic feelings to
the nation for a long time in history. A patriot loves his mother-land and these
patriots are loved by the whole country. Extreme patriotism sometimes might
bring a nation into trouble. There were great patriots in our country who
sacrificed their lives for the sake of country. Patriotism is considered as a
commendable quality that everyone should have within him.
Since the French Revolution the idea of nation and nationalism has occupied the
mind of people. Since, the beginning of nation and nationalism patriotism, is
hailed as a lofty quality with a person. The patriots sometimes sacrifice their
lives for the good of their respective countries. This spirit of sacrifice has made
patriotism a highly noble quality. Since there is the spirit of sacrifice in
patriotism, patriotism is certainly justified. We have some duty towards the
country in which we are born and live. So, the poet. S.W. Scott has said –
"Breathes there the man with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said.
This is my own, my native land".
34. Patriotism is no doubt useful in the interest of the country and the nation. The
nation is strongly built upon the sacrifice of the patriots. The patriots give their
money, time, energy and life for the good of the country. A patriot think of his
country. He wants that his country should be great and prosperous. He wants that
his country should be ideal in every field. So, patriotism is highly useful. Because
it makes the people to think of their own country.
The extreme form of patriotism is not desirable. Because the blind patriots do not
care for the humanitarianism. They forget that they are the members of a greater
society which is called the human society. They forget the interest of the human
beings as a whole. They forgets justice when they think of their country's interest.
They believe in the principle 'My country, right or wrong'. He might commit many
wrong things in the interest of his country. It is really not good. We should think in
the term of one world and one human society. We should contemplate a world-
Government.
We had great patriots in our country like Dasharath Chand, Dharmabhakta,
Sukraraj Sastri and Gangalal Shrestha. Their sacrifice is now proverbial. But they
were also thinking of the world as a whole. They have sacrificed their entire life
for the benefit of the country for the freedom of people and for the good of the
nation rather than their personal benefit.
Patriotism is no doubt a good quality. But we should always avoid the dark side of
patriotism. We should not forget justice and fair play when we think the interest of
our own country. A patriot should be a humanitarian first and foremost, then only
he can be a true patriot.
35. Outline of the Essay Patriotism

of this essay. That would make this
one a 4 paragraph essay (introduction,
why paragraph, how paragraph,
conclusion).

contrasting two things. Again, this is better to answer

41. Short Story
A short story is a work of fiction that is usually
written in prose, often in narrative format. This
format tends to be more pointed than longer works
of fiction, such as novellas and novels.
The concern of our short story in the classroom
are fables and parables rather than those literary
short stories, however, the need to understand the
elements of writing short story can never be
undermined. The elements of short stories can be
seen as below
42. Elements of Short Story
• Setting
Time, Place, Weather Condition, Social Condition,
Mood or Atmosphere
Character
Protagonist, Antagonist
Plot
Introduction, Rising Action, Climax / Turning Point,
Falling Action, Resolution / Denouement
Point of View
First Person, Second Person, Third Person
Theme
Moral
43. Classroom Strategy in Writing Short
Story
Write a good title
In the first paragraph introduce the character or the
characters into the setting
In the second paragraph describe the plot in detail
In the third or final paragraph write the moral.
(Rather than writing a single line moral, explain the
meaning of it with the reference to the story that is
written.)
44. Rationale of Evaluation in Story
A good and appropriate title: 1 mark
The flow of language and expression of the
clued message: 1mark
Content of the story and its appropriateness:
2 marks
Appropriate moral 1 mark
Grammatical correctness: 1 mark
45. Example
•Title!
•Awolf – hungry due to lack of game – a flock of
sheep – couldn't get near – the dogs and
shepherd guarded the flock – found a skin of a
dead ship – gets mixed up with the flock – a
lamb follows thinking it its mother – leads it to a
cave – feasts on it – Moral.
46. Appearance can be deceptive
•Once in a forest there was a wolf. It was growing old and so couldn't cover
much distance for a game. It made him hungry. It had really been long since it
had hunted so it was dearly in need of a game to carry on with his daily
activities.
•A flock of sheep used to come to graze near the forest. Once or twice the fox
tried to snatch at a few of those animals to make them food, but the shepherd
and the dogs guarded the flock with such alert that none of the attempts could
really yield him anything. One day he found the skin of a dead ship. The wolf
put on the skin and got mixed up with the flock. A lamb started following the
wolf thinking it was its mother because the wolf was covering its body with the
skin of the lamb's mother that had died. The wolf led the lamb to a cave and
satisfied its hunger by feasting on the lamb. The poor lamb never had thought
that the wolf could be inside the skin of its mother as a result it was waylayed
and devoured by the cunning wolf.
•From this story we get a moral lesson that appearance can be deceptive. We
shouldn't believe everything we see without questioning it. If the poor lamb
had realized that inside the skin there lived the cruel wolf he would never have
lost his life.
47. News Story
News style (also journalistic style or news writing style) is
the prose style used for news reporting in media such as
newspapers, radio and television. News style encompasses
not only vocabulary and sentence structure, but also the way
in which stories present the information in terms of relative
importance, tone, and intended audience.
News writing attempts to answer all the basic questions
about any particular event - who, what, when, where and
why (the Five Ws) and also often how - at the opening of the
article. This form of structure is sometimes called the
"inverted pyramid", to refer to the decreasing importance of
information in subsequent paragraphs.
48. Elements of News Story
Heading
Mini Sentence: so that the readers can grasp the
meaning of the whole text
Byline
Place of News, Date of News, Reporting Agency
Body
Information
Detailed news
Reports of people and any consequences of the
event
49. Classroom Strategy in Writing News
Story
Write a good Headline
Write a byline eg. Kathmandu, July 23 (RSS)
In the first paragraph introduce the news. Write
who, what, when, where, why
In the second paragraph write the news in detail.
Write every detail of the news
In the third paragraph write the reports of people or
the consequences of the incident and similar things
like compensation, report of authorities and so on.
50. Rationale of Evaluation in News
Story
A Headline and Byline: 1 mark
Link of the paragraphs and their
appropriateness: 1mark
Body of the news story and the content: 2
marks
Grammatical correctness: 2 marks
51. Example
•Write a news story with the help of the
following outline.
•Flying to Kathmandu from Pokhara – thick
clouds – hit the TV tower – caught fire – all
passengers die – Rs. 500,000 as
compensation.
52. 15 Die at a Plane Crash
Kathmandu, August 8 (RSS)
A plane flying to Kathmandu crashed here at Thankot
killing all 15 crew on board.
The plane, that belonged to Nepal Airlines, had taken off
from Pokhara for Kathmandu with its 11 passengers and
4 crew members. According to the local people the plane
had lost its way due to thick fog as a result it hit the TV
tower, caught fire and crashed to the ground. All the
passengers and the crew members died on the spot.
The NA authorities say that the news of the accident has
really made them grief-stricken. The government has
announced to give Rs. 500,000 to the family members of
the victim as a compensation.
