The document discusses the horror genre in film. It defines genre and provides examples of subgenres like horror comedy hybrids. It also covers common elements of horror films, including isolated or abandoned settings, expressive camera work using extreme close-ups and point-of-view shots, iconic visuals like blood and weapons, narratives that cliffhang or have endless plots, character archetypes like "the protagonist" and "the antagonist", and recurring themes like revenge or religion.

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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Genre What is genre? A genre is essentially the type of film. The various aspects of a film decide which genre the film is. Some films can fall into more than one category (e.g. Romanic comedy is both romance and comedy) these are called hybrid genres.
3. Genre Example of horror hybrids are: The Cottage Shaun of the dead: Army of darkness These are all both horrors and comedies, so they are horror comedy hybrids
5. Setting The setting is where the film is set, for a horror film are usually isolated, abandoned or locations with a hidden past, this can create a sense of tension and how they are alone, these are usually set at night time. However the setting for a horror genre is varied and can be set in almost any location at any time of day.
6. Setting Cliché examples of films with these settings would be: Silent hill: Set in a village that Has a hidden past Secret window: Set in an isolated area Friday the 13th: Set in an abandoned location
7. Setting Films with more original setting locations would include: The Thing: Set in Antarctica Ghost ship: Set aboard a ship 28 days later: Set in broad daylight London
8. Technical code Camera work is expressive rather than naturalistic. Using weird angles and canted cameras are common in horror movies. As well as this horror films often use extreme close ups and Point of view shots in order to express fear or to make the audience feel more involved or to add tension.
9. Technical code Examples of this camera work would include: The Blair witch project: Constant use of close and extreme close ups to display fear The silence of the lambs: Uses point of view shots to add tension Clover field: Uses point of view and canted angles to make the audience feel more involved
10. Iconography Visual things that signify the genre, colours like black and red often do this on movie posters and use blue filters are used in the film in order to show that this is a horror film. The mise-en-scene of any horror film also help show that the film is a horror film by using such props as Knives, axes, guns and of course blood.
11. Iconography Notice how all three of these horror films have a blue filter? It's called digital colour correction. Back in the day, if you wanted your movie to have an artistic, stylish colour palette, you had to go through the process of using filters on your lights and camera, or get the footage exposed just the right way. It was expensive, it was difficult and it was limited to people who really knew what they were doing. Now days due to advances in computer technology all horror films can have this eerie blue effect with some simple computer editing. The ring Saw Night mare on elm street
12. Iconography The same applies to other genres and settings Films set in the desert are yellow Films where the reality is off-kilter are green Fight club Smokin' Aces The hills have eyes The Matrix
13. Iconography Notice how often axes are used as weapons in horror films? They are a iconic prop in horror films and a Cliché example of horror mise-en-scene, other examples would include almost any bladed weapons but also certain creatures, costumes and even certain actors. Friday the 13th The Shinning
14. Narrative Structure The narrative structure is basically how the story is told and in horror films they usually have a cliff hanger at the end of the movie and a kind of never ending plot.
