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.

2. Root Pressure
• Plants transpire more rapidly in the
light than in the dark.
• This is largely because light stimulates
the opening of the stomata..
3. Plants absorb water from the soil, and move it into the
vascular tissues.
• Is the water movement active, or is it still passive??
• 96% of water absorption by plants is passive….
• Water absorption passively due to transpiration….
4. • Apoplast is passive process..
• Symplast is active process…
• Ascent of SAP:
• Water + minerals…..Xylem sap…
5. Root Pressure
• As various ions from the soil are actively transported
into the vascular tissues of the roots..
• water follows (its potential gradient) and increases the
pressure inside the xylem.
• This positive pressure is called root pressure, and can be
responsible for pushing up water to small heights in the
stem.
7. • Choose a small soft-stemmed plant and on a day, when
there is plenty of atmospheric moisture, cut the stem
horizontally near the base with a sharp blade, early in
the morning.
• You will soon see drops of solution ooze out of the cut
stem; this comes out due to the positive root pressure.
•
8.
9. • Auxanometer is used to measure?
• An auxanometer is an apparatus for
measuring increase of growth in plants…
• Rate of transpiration is measured by the
Ganong's potometer.
10. • Effects of root pressure is also observable at night and
early morning when evaporation is low..
• Water collects in the form of droplets around special
openings of veins near the tip of grass blades, and
leaves of many herbaceous parts.
• Such water loss in its liquid phase is known as guttation.
11. Guttation due root pressure in small plants:
• Root pressure around 2-3 bars.. Unable to pump in tall
tress like Sequoia….
• Guttation occur through water stomata….Hydathodes..
12. Guttation example:
• Oat, tomato, cucumber, grasses, Colocasia..
• Water lost through guttation per night is
100 ml… but in Colocasia it is 200 ml..
13. • The greatest contribution of root pressure may be to re-
establish the continuous chains of water molecules in
the xylem….
• Root pressure does not account for the majority of
water transport; most plants meet their need by
transpiratory pull.
14. Transpiration pull
• The rates of Transpiration pull up to 15 metres per
hour..
• Most researchers agree that water is mainly ‘pulled’
through the plant, and that the driving force for this
process is transpiration from the leaves.
• This is referred to as the cohesion-tension-transpiration
pull model of water transport.
15. • Most of it is lost through the
stomata in the leaves. This
water loss is known as
transpiration.
16. TRANSPIRATION
• Stomata.
• The immediate cause of the opening or closing of
stomata is a change in the turgidity of the guard cells.
• The inner wall of each guard cell, towards the pore or
stomatal aperture, is thick and elastic.
17. • The thin outer walls
bulge out and force the
inner walls into a
crescent shape.
• Cellulose microfibrils
are oriented radially
rather than
longitudinally making it
easier for the stoma to
open.
18.
19. Transpiration is affected by several external factors:
• temperature,
• light, humidity,
• wind speed.
• Plant factors:
• Number and distribution of stomata,
• per cent of open stomata,
• water status of the plant, canopy structure etc.
22. Opening of stomata:
• HIGH light …Blue light intensity..
• High PH i.e Low CO2… Alkaline..
• Low atmospheric pressure
• Low relative humidity..
• CK/GA
• High O2..
• Wind movement: Increased movement of the air
around a plant will result in a higher transpiration rate.
23. Closing stomata
Low light ..
Acidic pH
Decrease TP or OP
ABA
Low O2…
Antitranspirants:
Phenyl mercuric acetate, Abscissic acid, aspirin
24. Ascent of xylem sap depends mainly on the following
physical properties of water:
• Cohesion – mutual attraction between water molecules.
•
• Adhesion – attraction of water molecules to polar
surfaces (such as the surface of tracheary elements). •
• Surface Tension – water molecules are attracted to each
other in the liquid phase more than to water in the gas
phase.
25. These properties give water
• high tensile strength, i.e., an ability to resist a pulling
force.
• high capillarity, i.e., the ability to rise in thin tubes.
• In plants capillarity is aided by the small diameter of –
the tracheids and vessel elements
26. • Transpiration can create pressures sufficient to lift a
xylem sized column of water over 130 metres high.
27.
28. Transpiration and Photosynthesis – a Compromise
• supplies water for photosynthesis ….
•
• cools leaf surfaces, sometimes 10 to 15 degrees, by
evaporative cooling
• maintains the shape and structure of the plants by
keeping cells turgid…
29. The humidity of rainforests is largely due to …..
C4 photosynthetic system is probably one of the strategies for
maximising the availability of CO2 while minimising water loss.
C4 plant loses only half as much water as a C3 plant for the same
amount of CO2 fixed.
30. Uptake and transport of mineral nutrient
• Plants obtain their carbon and most of their oxygen
from CO2 in the atmosphere.
• remaining nutritional requirements from minerals and
water for hydrogen in the soil.
31. Uptake of Mineral Ions
• most minerals must enter the root by active absorption
into the cytoplasm of epidermal cells.
• Some ions also move into the epidermal cells passively..
the concentration of minerals
in the soil is usually lower
than the concentration of
minerals in the root……
32. control points, adjusts the quantity in endodermis
• endodermal cells have many transport proteins
embedded in their plasma membrane..
• Transport proteins of endodermal cells are control
points, adjusts the quantity and types of solutes that
reach the xylem.
• IN root endodermis actively transport ions in one
direction only.
33. Translocation of Mineral Ions
• The chief sinks for the mineral elements :apical and
lateral meristems, young leaves, developing flowers,
fruits and seeds.
• Unloading of mineral ions occurs at the fine vein
endings through diffusion and active uptake by these
cells
34. Mineral ions are frequently remobilised, particularly
from older, senescing parts.
• Similarly, before leaf fall in deciduous plants, minerals
are removed to other parts.
• Elements most readily mobilised are phosphorus,
sulphur, nitrogen and potassium.
• Some elements that are structural components like
calcium are not remobilised
35. An analysis of the xylem exudates:;
• shows that though some of the nitrogen travels as
inorganic ions, much in organic form as amino acids..
• Similarly, small amounts of P and S are carried as
organic compounds.
• In addition, small amount of exchange of materials does
take place between xylem and phloem.
36. Phloem transport: flow from source to sink
• The source and sink may be reversed depending on the
season, or the plant’s needs.
• Sugar stored in roots may be mobilised to become a
source of food in the early spring when the buds of
trees, act as sink;
• they need energy for growth and development of the
photosynthetic apparatus.
37. Source-sink relationship is variable
• the direction of movement in the phloem can be
upwards or downwards, i.e., bi-directional.
• This contrasts with that of the xylem where the
movement is always unidirectional, i.e., upwards.
• Phloem sap is mainly water and sucrose, but other
sugars, hormones and amino acids are also
transported..
38. The translocation of sugars from source to sink is
called the pressure flow hypothesis.
• sucrose move into the companion cells and then into
the living phloem sieve tube cells by active transport.
39. Phloem tissue is composed of sieve tube cells,
• sieve tube cells, form long columns with holes in their
end walls called sieve plates.
• Cytoplasmic strands pass through the holes in the sieve
plates, so forming continuous filaments
40. loading source produces a hypertonic condition in the
phloem.
• Water in the adjacent xylem moves into the phloem by
osmosis.
• As osmotic pressure builds up the phloem sap will move
to areas of lower pressure.
• Again active transport is necessary to move the sucrose
out of the phloem sap and into the cells which will use
the sugar ………..
