it is a remarkable story of birth and penetration. The Indian IT Services industry used innovation in vendor partnering to enter the global markets in mid 70s. The subsequent growth has been built on the foundations of cost effective service, unrelenting focus on quality, execution excellence and Human Resource supply chain management. It is a success story of globalisation.

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.

The “Draft National Policy on IT” seeks to achieve the twin goals of
bringing the full power of IT within the reach of the entire country and
harnessing the capability and human resources available locally, to enable
India to emerge as the Global Hub and Destination for IT-ITES by 2020.
The “Draft National Policy on Electronics” envisions creating a globally
competitive industry, including Nano-electronics, to serve both the
domestic and international markets.
The GoI has also constituted an Empowered Committee to identify
suitable technology and investors, for setting up Semiconductor
Fabrication facilities in the country.
Implementation of government-sponsored projects and e governance

“I have three visions for India.”
UCR Presentation
“ In 3000 years of our history people from all over the world have come and invaded us, captured
our lands, conquered our minds. From Alexander onwards. The Greeks, the Turks, the Moguls, the
Portuguese, the British, the French, the Dutch, all of them came and looted us, took over what was
ours.
Yet we have not done this to any other nation. We have not conquered anyone. We have not grabbed
their land, their culture, their history and tried to enforce our way of life on them.
Why?
Because we respect the freedom of others. That is why my first vision is that of FREEDOM.
I believe that India got its first vision of this in 1857, when we started the war of independence. It is
this freedom that we must protect and nurture and build on. If we are not free, no one will respect
us. “
My second vision for India is DEVELOPMENT. For fifty years we have been a developing
nation. It is time we see ourselves as a developed nation. We are among top 5 nations of the world in
terms of GDP. We have 10% growth rate in most areas. Our poverty levels are falling. Our
achievements are being globally recognized today. Yet we lack the self-confidence to see ourselves as
a developed nation, self-reliant and self-assured
I have a THIRD vision. India must stand up to the world. Because I believe that unless India
stands up to the world, no one will respect us. Only strength respects strength. We must be strong not
only as a military power but also as an economic power. Both must go hand-in-hand.”
