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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Understanding the self - lecture 6 & 7 HAND-OUT
1. LECTURE 6: THE MATERIAL SELF: the association of
self to possessions // role of consumer culture to self &
identity
In The Principles of Psy chology, W.James described the
components of self as 1 . Consitituents; 2.Feelings & emotions; 3.
Actions of self-seeking.
Under Consitutents, the self is composed of the materialself, the
social self, thespiritual self,and the pureego.
We are living in the world of sale and shopping spree.Almost
ev erywhere,including the digitalspace,wefind promotions of
product purchase.
Product advertisements are suggestiveof making us feel better or
look good. What makes us want tohave those products are
connected with whowe are.
What wewant tohave and already possess are related toour self.
“We regard our possessions as parts of ourselves. We are what we
have and what we possess.” – Belk,1988.
Our wanting tohave and possess has a connection with another
aspect of the self, the material self.
MATERIALSELF – primarily about our bodies, clothes,
immediate family,and home.We aredeeply affectiveby these
things because weput somuch investment of our self tothem.
BODY - The innermost part of our materialself. We are directly
attached toit and we can’t live without it.We strive hard tomake
sure that this body functions well and good. We alsohave
preferentialattachment tocertain parts because of its v alue tous.
CLOTHES – “any time we bring an object intothe surface of our
body , we invest that object intothe consciousness of our personal
existence and make it a part of us” (Watson,2014).Our clothes
affect our attitude and behavior.It is a form of self-expression. We
wear clothes that reflect us.
FAMILY –our parent and siblings hold an important of our self.
What they door become affects us.When an immediate family
member dies, a part of us dies too. When their lives are in success,
we feel their victories as well.In their failures,we arealsoput to
shame.We thinkof our family as a replica of our self.
HOME – it is our earliest nest of selfhood. Our experiences in life
are sometimes recorded and markedin our home.The home is an
extension of our self, we directly connect ourselves toit.
“We regard our possessions as part of ourselves.We arewhat we
have and what we possess” – Belk, 1988
The identification of the self tothings started in our infancy stage.
As we grow older, putting importance on our materialpossessions
decreases.We v alue morethings likehappiness,significant
ev ents,accomplishments,and people in our lives.
CONCLUSION: the possessions that we dearly havetellsomething
about whowe are,our self-concept,our past,and even our future.

and beliefs, finding the meaning of life
