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.
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.

This sceptr‟d isle – William Shakespeare
From the Preface to Milton (a long poem),
Prophecy of the dying John of Gaunt
sometimes known as „Jerusalem‟
in The Tragedy of King Richard II (1594),
Act 2, Scene 1:
And did those feet in ancient time.
Methinks I am a prophet new inspired Walk upon Englands mountains green:
And thus expiring do foretell . . .:
And was the holy Lamb of God,
This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle, On Englands pleasant pastures seen!
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise;
This fortress built by Nature for herself
And did the Countenance Divine,
Against infection and the hand of war;
This happy breed of men, this little world, Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall, And was Jerusalem builded here,
Or as a moat defensive to a house, Among these dark Satanic Mills?
Against the envy of less happier lands;
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this
England, Bring me my Bow of burning gold;
This nurse, this teeming womb of royal
kings, Bring me my Arrows of desire:
Fear'd by their breed and famous by their Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold!

Renowned for their deeds as far from home, Bring me my Chariot of fire!
For Christian service and true chivalry,
As is the sepulchre in stubborn Jewry,
Of the world's ransom, blessed Mary's Son; I will not cease from Mental Fight,
This land of such dear souls, this dear dear
land, Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand:
Dear for her reputation through the world, Till we have built Jerusalem,
Is now leased out, I die pronouncing it,
Like to a tenement or pelting farm: In Englands green & pleasant Land

Whose rocky shore beats back the envious
