Successful language learners — who are they? What is it that makes some students into fluent and confident users of English while others are struggling to wrap their heads around it?
In my talk I am going to argue that while dedication, effort, and motivation are all very important, it is our learning habits that help us become successful language learners and achieve our learning goals. Moreover, together we will link good learning habits to learner autonomy.
Finally, I will share some practical tips how to plant good learning habits in our students and help them grow into autonomous learners.
Three takeaways
Participants
1 will be able to define 'a good learning habit' and become aware of some examples of language learning habits;
2 will be able to describe an autonomous learner and bridge learner autonomy and learning habits;
3 will get some practical tips how to plant good learning habits in their students and promote learner autonomy.

The success of libraries in the future will be determined by its ability to create stories rather than provide them. One way to accomplish this is by putting technology and people together so patrons become creators and innovators in makerspaces and other learning environments. In this full day session, discover great new learning technologies and techniques for patrons, and how to build your new fablab or hackerspace. Get hands-on with must have maker tech and build new ideas throughout the day. Arm yourself with facts for having interactive spaces and tools to get buy-in from everyone from staff to public to the IT teams. Discover where technology is heading and how we can plan with it. After building your space, the session will also cover about building your staff. Learn ways to continually train and engage the staff so the environment will constantly evolve and grow. Multiple topics and ideas will be covered so any library on any budget can implement new ideas and activities for the patrons.
Outcomes:
• Participants will learn about key design concepts when looking at their library spaces to increase collaboration and foster innovation.
• Participants will have an opportunity to not only play and experiment with cutting edge maker space gadgets; but learn which tools in the educational technology realm offer instruction on engineering, programming, robotics, and early childhood education.
• Participants will also be armed with the skills they need to not only start their own spaces; but help market, promote, and fund their spaces.

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.
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.

1. Presentation of the results of the second round: Identification of mnemonic methods,
rules, techniques or exercises which maybe useful in education
1.Step : Methodology
Please describe briefly the method
you have used
Workshop □ discussion group □ brainstorming X
in small X or in big □
group
with learners □ or teachers □
with learners and teachers X
individual work by learners X or teachers □
other □: ...........................................
Please find 3-5 mnemonic methods, rules, techniques or exercises which may be practical
and useful in education:
Name of the
method/rule/technique/ exercise:
Short description of the method/...
Where /how did you find it:
ACROSTICS
It is a sentence where the first letter of each word
represents the initial of what you want to remember
Searching in the Internet X
searching in appropriate literature □
conversation (talking) with teachers X

2. Presentation of the results of the second round: Identification of mnemonic methods,
rules, techniques or exercises which maybe useful in education
2nd step: Please evaluate the chosen method/rule/technique/exercise to determine whether it is
useful in education in general and/or in relation to particular subject areas.
Please answer the following questions (regarding each method,...)
Did you try this method yourself?
If yes, in which situation?
Did you have any difficulties in using
this method?
Do you have another evidence of
using this method/... (like
information from other people,
Internet, literature) please describe
no □
yes X
as a learner, X a teacher X
during a learning □ or teaching □ process
other situation □:
.................................................
Like for the acronyms it is useful to remember things
that we have already fixed and that we have
temporary forgotten. Sometimes they are on the tip
of the toungue so just the initial can be a good help.
Other people X Internet □ literature □
This method is often used with funny purposed to
make fun of certain names and institutions:
Alitalia (the official Italian air company)
Always Late In Take-off Always Late In Arrival
Also the Italian students of Memory XL tried to
create funny acrostics about our project:
- the countries involved in the project: Italy, Hungary,
Germany, Poland, Greece, United Kingdom.
I hate unknown people giving gifts. (by Carla)
Google platform is generally useful help. (by Enzo)
God gave us hope in Paradise. (by Rossella)
- the initials of the coordinators of the different teams
(it was a very difficult one!!!): Maria, Xenia, Beatrix,
Gyongyi, Manuela, Andrea, Keith, Peter, Claudia.
My x-boyfriend gave me a kind precious cheque.
What kind of success was
3. experienced by using this method/...
Is this method – in your (or others )
opinion – useful in general
education ? Please describe.
Is this method – in your (or others )
opinion – useful in specific subjects?
In which one?
Other remarks you would like to add:
Thank you very much !
Very successful to remember lists of words we
already know.
It is usually used since primary schools with great
success in education
ATRONOMY: My very excellent mother just served
us nine pizzas: the planet of the Solar System
(Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus; Neptune, Pluto). In Italian language we have:
Mai vedere tua madre giocare sotto un noce (= never
see your mum plaing under a nut tree).
BIOLOGY: Richard of York gave battle in vain: the
colours of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green,
blue, indigo, violet)
GEOGRAPHY: Can Queen Victoria eat cold apple
pie?: the Seven Hills of Rome (Capitoline, Quirinal,
Viminal, Esquilin, Caelian, Aventine, Palatine)
HISTORY: Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced,
Beheaded, Survived: the destiny of Henry VIII’s
wives.
No plan like yours to study history wisely: the
British Royal Houses (Norman, Plantagenet,
Lancaster, York, Tudor, Stuart, Hanover, Windsor)
We don’t recommend this method to remember
immediate things that we need to remember urgently
because it may take a while to crate the acrostics. We
have tried to create an acrostics for these things to do:
Milk, Watch to be repaired, Icecream with my niece,
Airplane tickets for my holiday, Mum’s birthday,
Bills, Injection to my neighbour, Dog to the vet, Car
to the mechanic): “My wife is a man but I don’t
care!” It’s a nice funny acrostic, but it took us 50
minutes to create it!
