The document discusses the integral dimensions of human life from multiple perspectives. It addresses that humans have biological, psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions that interact. Humans are both products of their genes and culture, but also actively shape their own identities and biographies. Adolescence involves discovering one's identity while pursuing independence. Motivation and autonomy are important for writing one's own biography. Interpersonal relationships and communication within families are also discussed.

Course Title: Social Institutions and Social System of Pakistani Society
Dr. Imran Ahmad Sajid
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.

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.

Unit 1
1. Unit 1. The Integral Dimension of Human Life
The study of human beings as citizens, which is the objective of this unit, should not be
done in an isolated manner, detached from all the other factors that are part of us.
Human life cannot be split into segments of perspectives. The segment of an orange is
not an orange, it is only part of it; it is an orange when it has all its segments. The same
happens with personal life; it cannot be broken into several pieces where just one part,
one dimension is studied.
1. We are Heirs: Genes and Culture
Origins and Originalities
The human being is a “strange” reality, the result of the interaction of several realities.
Firstly, we have a body, or maybe we should say that we are a body, and this body we
are/have is the result of the biological evolution of our species, and also of our own
evolution, and that is why it is very important to look after it. But we are not only
biological beings. To a large extent, we are made of culture and of the society in which
we live. We are also the result of cultural influences.
Each of us is heir to a biological trajectory and some cultural influences. The human
being is the result of the interaction between genetics and culture, of both things at the
same time. Our origins consist of genes and culture, the internal and external aspects.
But we are not only the result of this interaction; we are not just “a product”; we also do
things and create ourselves. Thus, in the same way that we say that we have an origin,
we must also say that we have originalities.
A Great Debate: Nature or Culture?
Hundreds of erudite books and scientific magazines have dealt with the conflict
between nature and culture. This debate is not far detached from our daily life and we
must have heard of, or even discussed it, but perhaps in other ways. On the one hand,
we have heard someone saying hundreds of times, “He is like his parents!”, “Genes
always show up in the end!”, “The most important thing is biological nature”. On the
other hand, we have also heard “That comes from experience”, “There is no such thing
as nature, just history and culture”. This can also be debated using the example of
twins: think of two genetically “equal” twins, with “the same” socio-cultural factors.
Would they be “equal”? No, because each one is the way he is, with his own
personality. And where does this personality come from? Genetics? Education? These
are the terms of the debate. Present-day science usually gives a complex view. We are
culture, but not just culture. We are also biology, but not just biology. We are bio-
cultural beings.
2. Unit 1. The Integral Dimension of Human Life
2. We Are Many Things: A Plural Identity
As we have seen, there are many terms that define human life, many dimensions, and
when we threaten it, when we threaten a person's dignity, we reduce it to just one
dimension and deny diversity. If the human being is plural and diverse, the way in
which we approach him or her should also be different. Many times, we try to explain it
from only one point of view, like when we try to define an object by just observing one
of its sides.
Bearing in mind all of the previous ideas, and in order to simplify this difficult matter a
little, we could say that there are four main dimensions to the human being and,
consequently, four perspectives, four different ways of explaining what he is, what we
are. The human being can be seen from four perspectives: “from above”, “from inside”,
“from outside” and “from below”.
1) “From above”: the spiritual, religious or transcendental part of the person; according
to this
perspective, the human being is willing to transcend;
2) “From outside”: the socio-cultural dimension or "citizenship"; the human being is
defined
as a social being by his relationships and sense of belonging;
3) “From inside”: this perspective concentrates on the deepest part of the person, the
personality itself, and tries to ignore the external part: the human being is a
psychological, emotional and internal being.
4) “From below”: the physical or biological perspectives (genes); the human being is an
element of nature, a biological species, another living creature.
These four dimensions are correct but separate. In a complicated way, we are all of
them. Nowadays, many of the ideas on this matter reduce human richness to one
unique dimension; this is a mistake.
Identity and self-esteem
Your identity is the feeling that you are a complete entity, separate from other people.
As you discover your identity, you probably ask yourself questions like, “Who am I?”
Why am I here?” or “What is my role in life?”.
Your self concept is your idea of who you are as a person. Your self-esteem is yoir
opinion about your own personal value. People with high self-esteem feel very secure
3. Unit 1. The Integral Dimension of Human Life
about themselves. They make mistakes, but they can also accept them. They do not
lose their self-confidence because they know that other people accept and care about
them.
Our self-esteem begins to develop during infancy. Then it envolves during adolescence
and adulthood, as we react to positive and negative events in our lives.
3. Creating our Biography
Biology and Biography
Human beings not only have a fundamental biology, but also a biography. We could
say that biology is what we have, while biography is what we do with the resources we
have, from biological to cultural factors. Human life, each life, is not made; each person
has to build his life, hence the importance of thinking about these matters. Being a
citizen means being a person, but we cannot be a person without an identity. Strangely
enough, one needs the other, in other words, we also need other people to achieve a
personal identity. This is why this matter is so important and transcendental.
To “write” our biography we need three major elements:
- what we are, our qualities, our aptitudes and abilities;
- what we aim to be, our life project, our vocation;
- our circumstances;
We all have some resources and possibilities, and this is why we - helped by education
- have to discover our abilities; they might be related to sport, they might be artistic
abilities, or a capacity for scientific investigation, among others. Thus, it is important to
know ourselves and value what we have. But it is also important to know what we want
to be, in other words how we are going to use our abilities: to know our vocation, what
attracts my attention, what my calling is. It is also important to be aware of one’s
physical and social circumstances. If some of these factors fail, feelings of frustration
and unhappiness arise.
Like a Novel
Human life, our biography, could be compared to a novel. Novels have a plot and
suspense, just like our own lives. We create the plot from our experiences and from the
characters we come across. Our life makes sense when we tell it, when we narrate our
experiences. We like telling people about our life and listening to others talk about
theirs. We like stories, tales, adventure films; we like to identify ourselves with their
characters and heroes. We also have to create a character in our life, so we must think
4. Unit 1. The Integral Dimension of Human Life
a lot and choose the character we want to play, the story we want to tell about
ourselves. Therefore, we must pay attention to our life, our wishes, our motivations,
and to others.
4. Adolescence, Motivation and Autonomy
Adolescence
Adolescence begins between the ages of 12 and 14, and ends between the ages of 18
and 20. During this stage of life, adelescents experience significant physical and
psychological changes. During this process, adolescents abandon their childhood
identity and begin to discover their new identity as adults.
This growing process often causes insecurity for adolescents. It can also lead to
changes in their behaviour. Adolescents continue living with their families, but they
want to become more self-independent. They start to understand their rights and
responsabilities, and they also start to feel like part os larger community.
Being Autonomous
Writing our biography is a way of being autonomous. An autonomous person is
someone who decides for himself, who makes his own rules. Meanwhile a
heteronomous person is someone who lives through others and not through himself. Of
course, being autonomous does not mean living without counting on others; an
autonomous person counts on others, listens, takes advice and knowledge from others.
Autonomy is not the same as independence; it's about making your own decisions, but
not in opposition to others. To be an autonomous person we need to organise our
wishes, our motivations or, as was said before, our vocation. What do we want in life?
What do we value? What do we want to achieve?
Human Motivation
The psychologist A. Maslow designed a pyramid of human motivation that became
famous. This pyramid organises human wishes, from the most basic to the most
important. It is also an organization of human needs. You have to write in yout
notebook that pyramid.
5. Interpersonal relationships in the family
5. Unit 1. The Integral Dimension of Human Life
Interpersonal communication
Interpersonal communication is the way we share information, thoughts and
perceptions. We also share emotions and affects. An emotion is a feeling: a state of
mental excitement. An affect is a particular type of emotion. It refers to the feelings that
people cause each other. When you say “I feel happy”, you are referring to an emotion.
But when you say “My friends make me feel hapy”, you are referring to an affect.
The family
A family is a group of people who are related to each other and live together.
