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 wasnât 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 Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
Â
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 Caesarâs dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empireâs 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 Empireâs 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.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Â
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying itâs good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation thatâs least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state theyâre comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

The United Nations Essay
1. The United Nations Essay
The United Nations
The United Nations, with its rigid moral and political limitations against force, has become a benchmark of peace and a social achievement of
modern times. From war torn Europe, the United Nations developed from five major powers with an initial goal to prevent the spread of warfare
through peaceful means and to establish and maintain fundamental human rights. Through the past fifty years, this organization has broadened its
horizons with auxiliary organizations from peace keeping missions to humanitarian aid, to economic development. However, in a modern example of
ethnic cleansing, the UN faces new a new role as a bystander as its power is bypassed by NATOforces. The UN, however, promises to be an...show

However, the League, once secure used its representatives' power and presence as a threat, but did not follow through with such threats when major
opposition arose. For example, in the 1930s, the League of Nations "possessed neither the will nor the means to stop them [fascist dictators in Italy,
Germany, and Japan]" (Patterson, UN, 14). Although this organization did little to prevent the Second World War in 1939, it did pave the way for
humanitarian aid efforts to refugees and helped to resolve a number of border disputes before the war. Following the second of the World Wars, the
League of Nations was replaced by the modern United Nations. This organization's aims were similar to their predecessor's, to maintain harmony
through settling border disputes and to offer humanitarian aid wherever necessary, but the UN's charter states further that tolerance and equality is
necessary in peace: The Purposes of the United nations are: 1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective
measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to
bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and internal law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or
situations which might lead to a breach of the peace; 2. To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of

2. Introduction
About the United Nations
The United Nations is an international organization, which was founded in 1945 after the Second World War, committed to providing the means to
help resolve international conflicts and formulate policies on matters affecting human beings all over the world (Wikipedia). The organization is
committed to maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations and promoting social progress, better living
standards and human rights (Wikipedia). 'Ensuring environmental sustainability', climate change being one of the major factors, is one of the
millennium development goals of the UN. The United Nations Environment Programme, UNEP, along with many organizations/agencies under the
UN, collaboratively work towards achieving this goal.
About the Chosen Aspect of Study
'How does the United Nations support the millennium development goal of promoting environmental sustainability by limiting climate change in South
and North America?' This investigation shall focus on the previously mentioned question as this a very interesting topic to further research on, also as I
believe that the UN has played an enormous role in promoting environmental sustainability in South and North America, and therefore would make a
good topic to further research on. This topic is worthy of studying as by knowing of what many before us have done to protect and sustain the
environment, we can look into aiding the environment to a

3. The Purposes Of The United Nations Essay
The Purposes of the United nations are:
1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the
peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the
principles of justice and internal law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
2. To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self determination of peoples, and to take other
appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;
3. To achieve international cooperation in solving internal problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character and in promoting and
encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion (Charter, 1).
On June 25, 1945 the United Nations Charter was signed, setting the framework for economic, social and political reform (Patterson, UN, 20) By
October 24, 1945,
the United Nations had become an official organization. Two months later, by December 27, the UN Charter had 51 signatures, making it a new world
power with the ultimate aim for peace and humanitarian efforts. The preamble to the Charter of the United Nations states:

4. The United Nations is one institute of global governance which was established on the 24th of October 1951 with the aim of keeping peace
throughout the world, developing friendly relations between nations and working with member states to help people "live better lives" by
eliminating poverty, disease and illiteracy in the world and encouraging respect for each other's rights and freedoms. The UN was set up to reflect the
power structures that emerged out of the second world war, hence the permanent members of the security council are the USA, UK, Russia, France
and China. Each of these nations has power of veto over the decisions of the Security Council and in recent years this has greatly reduced the power of

As Russia is a member of the big 5 the UN remains powerless to do anything about the Russian occupation of Crimea as any proposed action is
vetoed by the Russian government. However when the UN has been able to get the big five to agree upon action it has often seen many positive
results such as the implementation of no fly zones in Syria which went along way to helping overthrow the corrupt Gaddafi regime. Another of the
UN's main aims is to help people "live better lives". The UN has had a lot more success achieving this goal although it generally goes unnoticed by
the international community. One of the UN's greatest successes was their eradication of polio in Africa. This went along way to bettering the
health and living conditions of many of the worlds poorest people. The UN has also helped lower the percentage of people living on less than $2 a
day to drop by 8% and there establishment of the World Food Program aimed to bring assistance to more than 90 million people in 75 countries,
primarily in those emergency situations, such as to the victims of war, civil conflict and natural disasters, to give them food and monitor it's use to
ensure all victimized receive fair amounts of aid. However the UN has had difficulty intervening in countries where these incidents occur, as member
states may disagree with the UN on how to distribute aid, such as occurred with the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami when nations such as India and Thailand

5. The Creation Of The United Nations
The creation of the United Nations (UN), the largest organization in the world introduced a new reform for collective security around the world after
the failure of the League of Nations. Such a reform is vital for the international community as it zealously promotes concord and security, which is the
most important goal in the 21st century. Thus, has the UN been successful in promoting international peace and security? To an extent, they have been
when it comes to certain economical, humanitarian and environmental conflicts that occur within particular situations. However, one must take into
account that the UN has failed in promoting such an itinerary when it came to the nuclear proliferation, the failure to uphold amity in Sri Lanka,
Rwanda and Srebrenica Massacre.
The failure of the League of Nations caused the establishment of the United Nations after the Second World War in 1945. "After the establishment of
the UN in 1945, the world became divided ideologically into two camps, whose leaders the USSR and the US treated each other in total suspicion
and appeared to oppose each other on every major issue."(Diel Latif) It was impossible to create international peace and security when the world has
been divided into two camps who distrusted and oppose each other.

colonial rule ended, Ceylon was given independence in

6. United Nations : An International Organization
UNITED NATIONS DESCRIPTION: The United Nations is an international organization established to promote intercontinental support. Therefore,
the main role of the United Nations is to maintain international peace and security, to develop friendly relations among nations, to promote respect
for human rights and to coordinate aid in disaster situations and to provide help on global issues such as drug trafficking and the environment.
STRUCTURE: The UN today has 192 Member States who express their opinions through the following institutions. They are all located in New
York: The General Assembly debates issues and recommends actions. The Security Council authorizes economic and military actions in settling
disputes. The Economic and Social Council sponsors trades and human rights organizations. The International Court of Justice decides questions of
international law. The Trusteeship Council controls territories under UN supervision. The Secretariat is the Administrator of the UN and
coordinates work in UN agencies. HISTORY: In 1919 the League of Nations was created by the Treaty of Versailles in order to keep peace and
security between nations after the First World War. It was made of 58 members but there were some significant problems with the organisation, as it
had no army or power on its own. As a result of this, the League of Nations failed to prevent the Second World War and was replaced by the United

7. The League Of Nations And The United Nations
â After the first world war, the first organization which will bring countries together was the League of Nations. the League of Nations was urgent to
maintain a strategic distance from a redundancy of the abhorrences of the Great War. The primary points of the association included demobilization,
avoiding war through aggregate security, settling question between nations through transaction and discretion, and enhancing worldwide welfare.
Unfortunately, they failed and their failures caused the second world war. Then, after the world war II decided to replace the League of Nations by a
new organization named the United Nations. Their main goals were maintaining international peace and security and to give a worldwide institutional

8. Essay on The United Nations Charter
A. The United Nations Charter
The United Nations (UN) is one of the most important international organizations to ever be assembled. Since it was founded after the end of World
War II in 1945 to replace its predecessor, the League of Nations, the UN has strived to maintain world peace and facilitate cooperation in solving
international problems. Without the watch of the UN, many more international issues between states would have ended in serious conflicts and
numerous human rights violations would have occurred throughout the world. The UN has proven to be very successful in meeting its goals since its
inception. These goals, as well as the key principles of the UN, can be found in the Charter of the United Nations, an...show more content...
Many states agreed to join the league such as France and Britain, but the United States, who's President had originally promoted the creation of the
League of Nations, ended up not joining after the US Senate opposed Wilson's proposal to enter into it. The United States' refusal to join the
league greatly weakened it and prevented it from fully meeting its goals. Though it was at least somewhat successful, the emergence of World War
II proved just how much weaker the League of Nations was than how it had originally been billed to be. During the time when World War II was
ongoing, the idea for a new international organization to replace the League of Nations was brought up at some point. The problems that were
associated with the League of Nations were quickly being recognized and the need for a better, stronger organization could be seen by many. Very
soon after World War II finally finished in 1945, the United Nations was finally established on October 24, 1945 when the Charter of the United
Nations was signed by 51 countries, this time including the United States (Baylis, Smith, and Owens, 2008, ch. 18, p. 314). By the year 2006, 192
countries would be called members of the United Nations, which was almost every state in the world (Baylis et. al., 2008, ch. 18, p. 314). According

9. The Complexity of the United Nations
I choose this topic to reflect more about the complexity of the UN as an organization. In this paper I want to present an overview standpoint of
documents, publications, databases and websites to show the history and the different branches in the organization and raise some of the accusations
behind the peacekeepers.
After the First World War, people felt the necessity of an international organization with the task of maintaining global peace. After the 1st World War
the League of Nations was the outcome of that feeling, but it was found that nations were unwilling to give any international authority the jurisdiction
over their lands. But after the result of these selfish policies the Second World War started. At the close of this second catastrophic war, the minds of
men turned again to evoke a more effective world organization, to establish peace and mutual understanding.
"Chapter I of the United Nations Charter lay out the purposes and principles of the United Nations organization. These principles include the equality
and selfâdetermination of nations, respect of human rights and fundamental freedoms."
This organization was planned at a Conference of Nations held at Dumbarton Oaks, U.S.A., and at another held a few months later at San Francisco. It
was named the United Nations Organization (UNO) and was inaugurated on October 24, 1945. Now, membership has doubled since its inauguration
with 192 member states. New members are admitted if the five sponsoring nations, USA,

The Formation of the United Nations
Before the United Nations organization was formed we lived in a world of uncertainty where any misunderstanding could lead to a massive world
war. Since the United Nations was formed, many issues have been resolved and a number of new groups have been created to make the world more
peaceful. The United Nation's intentions are aimed for the future race of people. Their hope is that one day we can all set aside our differences and
live together as one. Human kind has fought many wars over a variety of issues; however, the advent of a unified international organization has changed
the world and set goals for humanity's future.

That organization was the United Nations" (Woog 31). The decision for a new alliance was actually thought about during World War II. It was a
meeting at St. James' Palace in London that brought together representatives from the different nations involved with the war. Then shortly after British
prime minister, Winston Churchill and US president, Theodore Roosevelt came together and signed a InterâAllied pact. American diplomat Clark
Eichelberger said:
Somehow, millions of people in the world tonight, hearing of the RooseveltâChurchill Conference, feel that they have been snatched from the brink of
disaster and their feet put upon the road to victory and world organization. It will be a long road, entailing many hardships—even, as Mr.
Churchill predicted for his country, blood, sweat, toil, and tears. But it is the only road that will lead to victory and permanent peace. It is the road
that the American people, with other brave nations, must travel (qtd. in Woog 33). On New Year's Day 1942 the new Allies signed a pledge of mutual
support, the Declarations of United Nations. In that document it stated the 26 signers were "convinced that complete victory over their enemies is
essential to defend life, liberty, independence, and religious freedom, and to preserve human rights and justice in their own lands as well

Lastly, the World Bank and International Monetary Fund are two institutions within the UN that help to develop countries socially and economically
by helping them with debt and jobs so that they can survive. The UN has many organizations that provide health and relief aid as well as organizations
that provide finance which is why they are still a major contributor in our world. One of the United Nations biggest accomplishments is stabilizing the
world and creating a better world for future generations. Many volunteers and peacekeepers are helping civilians to get through their struggles by
helping them retrieve their basic human rights. Unfortunately, many countries are so corrupt that nothing can be done to help the innocent civilians.
However, the UN has made mistakes in the past and are constantly trying to improve on what can be done within certain corrupt countries. For
example, in Sudan multiple villages were attacked where many civilians lived which resulted in close to 300,000 people getting killed. The UN did
not want to get involved so they asked members of the African Union to negotiate. This is a clear example that if the government wants to attack, they
will attack. The best solution is for peacekeepers to keep their heads down and stay away rather than getting involved and potentially getting killed. The
war in Sudan has been continuous for decades and the only thing that

12. Globalization Of The United Nations
Globalization in the contemporary world means that transnational relationships are both extensive and intensive (Held et al., 1999) Interdependence is
inevitable. It is this interdependence that has created an impetus towards a form of global governance. Governance is a concept as old as history,
enacting it on a global scale, though not an entirely new concept, has become increasingly popular in recent years. Intrinsic to any understanding of
governance, global or national is the concept of power. My research question is examining the interaction between these concepts of power and global
governance, followed by a particular focus on the United Nations.
As an intergovernmental organization, the United Nations has been very active on the world stage, attempting to find consensus and pursue progress
between states, and other major groups. Within the many areas of concern to the United Nations, global development holds a particular position of
importance, and they have made many different efforts in its pursuit. The most notable and global of these has been the Millennium Development Goals
, which were established as global targets at the United Nations Millennium Summit. The postâ2015 development agenda is the latest pursuit of the
UN, following on from the Millennium Development Goals, on the road to full global development.
The Millennium Development Goals were put together at the beginning of the 21st century, while the importance of global governance was changing.

organization called United Nations was created in order to try to fix this kind of problem around the world. This is done by intervening in several
countries in order to bring peace. Among these interventions, many were situated on the African continent: Sudan, South Africa, Sierra Leone and

It is composed of 15 members: five of them are permanent members (China, France, Russia, United Kingdom and UnitedâStates) and ten are elected for
a twoâyear period. The special side of this organ is that the five permanent members have a veto power. This means that if one of the countries does
not agree with the decision, it can give a negative vote and the proposal will be rejected. (Department of Public Information: 1995, p.9) Now, here is
the explanation for actions or inactivity of UN in two important African conflicts.
To begin, one of the conflicts in which the United Nations was involved is the conflict in South Africa. The problems in this country originally began
in 1948 when the new South African Government imposed an apartheid policy (apartheid is an African word meaning separateness). This new policy
was one of discrimination and racial separation. The population of South Africa was separated into four groups: Black, White, Coloured and Indian.
The Black Africans represented the majority of the population in South Africa, but with this new policy, all of their rights (liberty, participation in
politic, and so on) have been removed. They were forced to have identity cards and they were forced to live in the worst areas of the country: the most
arid and infertile areas. (Department of Public Information: 1995, p.207â208)

lives for future generations. Although the SDGs are not binding contracts, governments and leaders are expected to work together and follow through
on ensuring that progress and development is being made. The new development goals require that all countries, impoverished and affluent alike, do

INTRODUCTION
THE ISSUES
The United Nations turns fiftyâfive this year and, like many individuals facing middle age, it worries about the future. Created as a bold experiment in
collective security amid the ruins of World War II, the U.N. has many accomplishes to its credit, from successfully mediating numerous peace accords
to the countless ways it has improved economic and living conditions in less developed countries.
When the leaders toasted the U.N.'s past accomplishes in 1995, the primary topic behind the scenes was what was to be done about the U.N.'s current
travails in the former Yugoslavia. As they celebrate this year, might the topic be on how they failed and had to have the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization take over the peacekeeping forces and bombing raids?

The failure of the U.N. peacekeeping mission to Bosnia has called into question the very heart of the organization's mandate. It also had precipitated a

It was not until the second World War when Pearl Harbor and the Atomic Bomb in 1942 that they finally followed through with their idea and created a

By midâJune 1945 there was yet another meeting where 51 nations came together and signed the Charter of United Nations this document laid out the
obligations and rights of each country to keep peace in the world (Basic Facts About the United Nations). Each of those nations is responsible for
trying to ensure that the generations to come will not have to bear witness to the horror, pain, and destruction from war like the ones their generation
had to witness not once but twice. The United Nations is set up to smooth over any conflicts they encounter with peace unless they must defend
themselves. These nations are to work together to maintain peace and security and to maintain friendly relations when solving international
economic, humanitarian, social, and cultural issues. The home base for this operation is in New York City since 1942, and each year the 193

This left the UN open to accusations of indecision and lack of firmness. It caused some states to put more faith in their own regional organization
such as NATO for keeping peace, and many agreements were worked out without involvement of the UN; for example , the end of the Vietnam
war, the Camp David peace between Israel and Egypt in 1979 and the settlement of Rhodesia/Zimbabwe problem in the same year. All this time,
critics were claiming that the UN was becoming irrelevant and was no more than an arena for propaganda speeches. Part of the problem was that
the Security Council was hampered by the veto which its permanent members could use. Although the "Uniting Force Resolution" could offset this
to some extent, the veto still could cause long delays before decisive action was taken. Anthony Parsons, for many years the UK Permanent
Representative at the UN, gives two recent examples, of which early action might have prevented the war "If a potential aggressor knew that his
forces would be met by the UN armed force, equipped and mandated to fight, this would be a powerful disincentive....Such a force, if deployed on
Kuwait side of the Iraqi/Kuwait frontier in 1990, or on the Croatian side of the Serbia /Croatia border in 1991, might well have prevented hostilities

In its forty years of existence, the UN has grown into several roles in the international community, hitherto left undone by the system of states. The UN

be slowly strengthening the UN's reach as its standards for political, economical, environmental, and human right issues become more and more

Economic sanctions in particular have a much higher chance of achieving the desired result if they are multilateral instead of stemming from a few,
individual countries. Therefore, the facilitation of discussion is one of the most important things that the UN alone is able to do. Even if no
specific plan of action is decided upon, the potential for representation and dialogue is unique in our international system, and the efforts of the UN
go a long way. The facilitator role is certainly a reflection of ideological beliefs, because the success of any UN body or resolution rests on the
members acting on what needs to be done overall instead of their individual interests. In practice, this is frequently not accomplished, but still the UN
continues to hold its members to its standards in whatever way possible. A very common criticism of the UN is that it disproportionately represents
the top five global powers, the permanent members of the security council, because each state has the ability to veto any resolution that isn't
advantageous to their state. This argument, however, leaves out two important points. First, even a biased resolution is going to be necessarily more
representative than any kind of cooperation would have been if the UN did not exist. Second, the ideological attitude of promoting global

It is taken for granted that the pursuit of peace is a worthy pursuit. We, the human race, have dedicated enormous efforts to that noble pursuit. The

reads, "The Purposes of the United Nations are: To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for
the prevention and removal of threats to the peace".
Few would argue that there is anything more important than this. The question then, is how to attain it. One popular idea is that a specific form of
