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.
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.

The Parts of Speech
1. The Parts of Speech
A Review
Presented by Mrs. Mary Acevedo, M.Ed., TESOL
2. Nouns
Nouns are words that name a person, place, object, or idea.
There are several characteristics of nouns:
Common: Common nouns name general categories and begin
with a lower-case letter.
Proper: Proper nouns are named and must be capitalized.
Non-count and Count Nouns:
Non-count nouns cannot be counted and therefore have no
plural form.
Count nouns can be counted and therefore have singular and
plural forms.
Plurals can be regular (add –s or –es) or irregular (1 man
2 men, 1 sheep 2 sheep)
Nouns are often preceded by the articles a, an, or the, but
sometimes no article should be used.
4. Pronouns
A pronoun is used to replace a common or
proper noun:
Theresa and Danny went to the concert
together. Mom and Dad gave Theresa and
Danny the tickets.
They went to the concert together. Their
parents gave them the tickets.
5. Pronouns
There are three pronoun cases:
Subject Pronouns: I, you, we, they, he, she, and it
Object Pronouns: me, you, us, them, him, her, and it
These can only be used in the subject position of the sentence.
These can only be used in an object position
(object of the verb or object of the preposition).
Possessive Pronouns: my/mine, your/yours, our/ours,
their/theirs, his, hers, its
These can only be used when possessive case is required
(PRONOUN + NOUN [my book] or linking verb [This book is mine.])
6. Verbs
Verbs tell us something important about the
subject of the sentence:
Action verbs: What it is doing, has done,
or will do
Linking verbs: What its state of being or
condition is. These link the subject to a
description of it.
Helping verbs: Join the main verb to form
verbs of more than one word

8. Adjectives
Adjectives are used to describe nouns.
Adjectives answer the questions: Which?
How many? What kind?
Adjectives may be directly in front of the
noun they describe.
The black cat ran in front of me.
Adjectives may appear after a linking verb.
The cat is black.
9. Adverbs
An adverb is used to describe verbs,
adjectives, and other adverbs.
Adverbs answer the questions: When? How
often? To what degree? In what way?
He runs quickly down the street daily.
Adverbs often, but not always, end in -ly
backward, forward are adverbs
not all –ly words are adverbs
lovely is an adjective: Have a lovely day!
(lovely describes day, which is a noun)
10. Prepositions
A preposition is a word that explains the
relationship between a noun and other
words in the sentence.
Prepositions are words that demonstrate
time, location, direction, or position, such
as in, on, at, for, from, to, with, etc.
There are MANY prepositions.
A preposition is always followed by a noun.
11. Interjections
Interjections are words that indicate
emotion.
Interjections often begin a sentence.
Interjections can be followed by a comma
or an exclamation point, depending on how
strong an emotion is being demonstrated.
Wow, that’s a beautiful car!
Oh! I forgot to bring my books.
Hey, Tara says class is cancelled.
12. Conjunctions
Conjunctions are connecting words.
Conjunctions join words or groups of words
while explaining their relationship to each
other
There are two kinds of conjunctions.
Coordinating
Subordinating
13. Conjunctions
Coordinating conjunctions join words,
groups of words, or sentences of equal
importance.
Use a comma only if the pattern is
subject verb , CC subject verb.
Use FANBOYS to remember the
coordinating conjunctions: for, and, nor,
but, or, yet, so.
My son likes spaghetti for dinner but not fish.
I could tell you my secret, or I could keep it to
myself.
14. Conjunctions
Subordinating conjunctions do not join single words,
only groups of words or sentences.
The word groups they bring together are NOT of
equal importance to each other.
As a result, use a comma, but only when the subordinating
conjunction starts the sentence.
There are MANY subordinating conjunctions. Some
common ones include: although, since, while,
because.
Because her grades were so high, Leanne earned an A in the
class.
Leanne earned an A in the class because her grades were so
high.
