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.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

material such as legal documents and
newspapers had to carry a stamp showing
that a tax had been paid to Britain.

formally declared the colonies’ intent to be independent.
23. The main author, Thomas Jefferson, was greatly influenced
by the Enlightenment philosopher John Locke.
25. "The state of nature has a law
of nature to govern it . . . no
one ought to harm another
in his life, health, liberty, or
posessions.”
To avoid war that often
occurs in nature, men enter
into political society to
protect "life, liberty, and
estate."
26. Locke believed that
government’s power is
based on “the consent
of the governed.”
If government does

No power to tax
33. Dissatisfaction with Confederation
• Slow economic recovery after Revolution
• Restored trade with Britain trade deficit
and currency shortage
• Congress unable to address trade, inflation,
and debt; had no power to tax
• Stronger central government = restore
economic growth?
34. The United States in 1787 In 1787 delegates
met to revise the
Articles.
The proposed a
new Constitution
and created a
federal system.

41. Power is shared between the national (federal) government
and local state governments. The federal government has the
power to levy taxes, raise an army, regulate trade, and create
a national currency.

U.S. Capitol Building in
Washington, DC,
the national capital city
State Government:
N.C. Legislative Building in
Raleigh, NC, the state capital city
42. The federal government was divided into three branches in a
system of checks and balances.

46. Article III – the Judicial Branch
• One Supreme Court and lower courts as Congress deems
appropriate
• May hear cases involving the Constitution and disputes
between states
47.
48. The promise of a Bill of Rights helped get
the Constitution adopted. These 10
amendments guaranteed freedom of
religion, speech, press, petition, and
assembly. They gave Americans the right to
bear arms and to be protected from
unreasonable search and seizures. They
guaranteed a trial by jury, due process of
law, and the protection of property rights.
49. Amendments 1-10 - The Bill of Rights
• Guarantee basic civil liberties – freedoms to think and act
w/o govt. interference or fear of unfair treatment
50. Many of these rights were derived from the natural rights
proposed by eighteenth century Enlightenment philosophes.
