The document discusses virtual classrooms as teaching and learning environments located within computer-mediated communication systems where all activities and interactions take place through computers instead of face-to-face. Virtual classrooms may involve synchronous online meetings and presentations as well as asynchronous events and consist of a mixture of these. They utilize technologies like course management applications, multimedia resources, the internet and videoconferencing. Advantages for students include accessibility from anywhere with an internet connection and flexibility in schedule. Advantages for teachers include accessibility from anywhere with a computer and more efficient updating of materials. Google Classroom is highlighted as a useful virtual classroom software that is free, accessible anywhere and supports tracking of student progress and scheduling of materials.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

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.

3. Introduction
Virtual classroom refers to instruction in a learning
environment where teacher and student are
separated by time or space, or both, and the
teacher provides course content through course
management applications, multimedia resources,
the Internet , videoconferencing , etc.
Students receive the content and communicate
with the teacher via the same technologies.
4. Meaning
• Virtual = something whose existence is
simulated with software.
• A teaching and learning environment located
within a computer-mediated communication
system.
• All activities and interactions are through
computer-mediated communication
5. VIRTUAL CLASSROOM?
• A teaching and learning environment located within
a computer-mediated communication system.
• All activities and interactions take place through the
computer instead of face-to-face.
• Virtual classrooms may involve three overlapping
scopes of interaction technologies: VC courses,
meetings and presentations.
• Among the synchronous events are online meetings,
which may include online presentations.
6. Definitions
• Virtual classrooms are complete programs of learning.
They consist of a mixture of synchronous and
asynchronous events.
• They are special application of computer and network
technologies to the task of education.
• A Virtual Classroom is private online space in
Blackboard that teachers can use to support student
learning. It is accessible via the Internet, 24×7. Just
like your face-to-face classroom, a Virtual Classroom
is a busy place.
• The online learning space where students and
instructors interact.
7. Virtual Classroom vs.
Real-Life Classroom.
• The classroom is the
real, tangible, touchable
place to teach and to
learn....
• In the virtual classroom,
the teacher is usually
able to interact with only
one student at a
time(sometimes in
group) and it is from
behind a computer
screen.
8. A Virtual Classroom might contain:
• Class activities
• Group and individual learning activities
• Discussions and chats with students, parents and
guests
• Quizzes and surveys
• Homework activities and assessment documents
• Full online courses with modules of work
• Forums and synchronous chat sessions
11. Advantages for students
• Virtual classrooms remove the need to travel to a location
in which to participate in the course or lessons.
• Virtual classrooms can be accessed from any computer
that has the necessary software, hardware, Internet
connection, and Internet browser requirements in order to
participate in the virtual classroom
• virtual classrooms are accessible to students with physical
disabilities, which is an advantage over the real classroom,
as they can access it from home.
• Virtual classrooms have been affirmed as “time
independent” meaning that students can access the
course material and activities in the virtual classroom at a
time that is most convenient to them.
12. Advantages for teacher
• The teacher is not required to work from an office or
classroom to instruct lessons or organise material
and lessons; this can be done from anywhere where
they have access to a computer with an Internet
connection and other necessary software/hardware,
which is an advantage.
• Electronic content can be updated more efficiently
than printed material, and at a lower cost, which
saves the teacher time and money when preparing
and adjusting material to suit their lessons and
courses within their virtual classroom.
13. Limitations for students and Teachers
• Limited offerings: the choice of courses is limited
at present.
• Equipment requirements: students who do not
have a computer will have to travel to use the
necessary equipment.
• Delayed feedback: it may be hours until a
question is answered by the teacher.
15. • Product, developed by Google,
especially for educational
institutions for managing a virtual
classroom.
• It is a structured tool that assists the
teachers in managing their
coursework.
• Using the classroom, the teachers
can easily share their course
material with the students.
• Released publicly in 2014, the web

Google Calendar to provide support for scheduling material. A
due date can also be set for assignments or quizzes to monitor
late submissions.
8. Simple setup procedure: It is easy to create a classroom
