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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

4. CURIOSITY OF PROBLEM PLAY
IN ‘THE SWAMP DWELLERS’
The problem play is supposed to have arisen out of the sentimental dramas of the
18th century and often been identified with the serious drama. Problem play
essentially differs from tragedy though it deals with serious issues it normally
exhibits ideas, situations and feeling that lack tragic dimensions.
In dealing with a problem play the dramatist’s business is to state problem clearly
and effectively and not to provide or present a readymade solution or suggest a
specific remedy.
The protagonist of the play is exposed to the greed, hypocrisy and hidden
corruption of the society.
The plays explore dark and ignoble aspects of human nature and in which the
resolution of the plot seems to many readers to be problematic, in that it does not
settle or resolve, except superficially, the moral problems raised in the play.
5. The situation faced by the protagonist is presented by the
dramatist as a representative illustration of a
contemporary social problem; often the dramatist
manages-by the use of a character who speaks for the
author or by the evolution of the plot or both-to propose a
solution to the problem which is at odds with prevailing
opinion.
Wole Soyinka best represents his African nationalism. He
takes a firm stand as an advocate in defence of human
values which have been eating away at fast in the present
century. In writing the play “The swamp dwellers”
Soyinka worked within a tradition of poetic-naturalistic
treatments of peasant societies confronted by new values
and by disruptive social forces.
He has achieved and succeeded in bringing forth the
Greek, the African, the Christian and at times the oriental
thoughts together and in proving that their essence is the
same. He portrayed the quality of a group through an
individual. He was drawn on the world of manse, on
members of his family and the wider Yoruba society he got
to know. He observed the effect of wealth on family life
and used his observations in “The swamp dwellers”.
6. From the beginning to the ending, the play almost poses problems. As said earlier, it
does not provide resolutions or finales or moments of temporary acts of violence or
outburst of emotional tension. At moments the play certainly becomes melodramatic
and sentimental.
It is an early work and portrays the intensity of Soyinka’s feelings, his identification
with Igwezu and his scorn for Kadiye. Easy money, whatever its source, destroys
families and creates problems within the society. Soyinka tells the story of Makuri
and Alu and their twin sons Igwezu and Awuchike. The two symbolic characters
Igwezu and Awuchike, twin brothers, represent the swamp and the city respectively.
Awuchike had set off across the swamps for the city to seek his fortune. Igwezu had
planted his fields, provided the Kadiye or priest of the Serpent of swamps, with a calf
to sacrifice to the serpent and left with his young wife for the city. There, in the city
he found his brother alive and wealthy but ‘dead’ to his parents in terms of
responsibility.
There is also a contrast in lot, he did not prosper; his wife left him for his brother and
he had been forced to use the harvest he had anticipated from the fields as security
on a loan from that same rich and unbrotherly brother. At the start of the play,
Igwezu had returned home and almost immediately, rushed out to inspect his crops.
7. A desolate sight welcomed him as the rains had been
very heavy; the crops have been ruined by floods.
There is also a striking comparison between the
protagonist Igwezu and the beggar-in terms of the
problems they have faced. While the flood destroys
Igwezu’s farm, the drought and plague of locusts
afflict beggar’s village.
There is also a contrast in understanding of the
problem-Igwezu understands the exploitation of the
village by Kadiye and the beggar understands the
necessity of self-help and of the negative features of
begging.
The protagonist Igwezu is shown as a representative
of failure. When he came home,harvest failed him;
the city had failed him. And what drove him mad is
that his young bride, blinded by the dazzle of the
city, ‘the innocent, unspoilt child’ has failed him, in
the person of none other than her own brother-in-
law. Igwezu rushed home frustrated, only to find
that the serpent of the swamps has completed the
tumult.
8. The question that arises in all the force of irony is whether the swamp is confined to
the remote river deltas. It is a whirlpool, though deceptively attractive at the surface,
which can lure people right into its middle and suck them in, never to reappear. The
mind of the city is an invisible swamp where spiritual destruction is being threatened.
The mind of the city is an invisible swamp where spiritual destruction is being
threatened. The city has swallowed Awuchike, it has robbed Igwezu of his bride. The
veneer of style serves just to hide the dangerous stinking slough underneath.
The irony strikes in all its force while implying that the choice for the younger
generation in between two swamps; the one in the village and the other in the city.
Igwezu’s discovery of the deficiencies of village life and city life alike constitutes the
theme of the play. He plays a pivotal role in the play-the one character that has
experience of both village and city. As a truth-teller, he is enabled to act as an informed
critic of his society.
