Visual communication uses visual language to communicate through images made up of basic visual elements like dots, lines, shapes, textures and colors. Visual language is one of the most important communication systems because images can convey information to everyone regardless of language or culture. The degree to which an image resembles or represents reality is called its iconicity, which can be high, medium, or low. Highly iconic images are realistic copies, while abstract images have no recognizable connection to reality.

Tutorial on Creative Metaphor ProcessingTony Veale
Metaphor is both a rhetorical device and a cognitive lever. It allows us to make the familiar seem strange and the strange feel familiar. It allows us to use our knowledge of a well-understood domain to structure and fill-out a domain in which we are less knowledgeable, or for which we lack the established terminology. In short, metaphor gives new life to our words, and new power to our concepts.
The tutorial focuses on the computational processing of metaphor: how might a computer understand a metaphor, and how might a computer generate meaningful and novel metaphors of its own?

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.
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. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

4. VISUAL LANGUAGE IS MADE UP OF
ITS BASIC COMPONENTS WHICH ARE
DOTS, LINES, SHAPES, TEXTURES
AND COLORS
5. WITH ALL THESE ELEMENTS WE
CREATE IMAGES.
SO, WE CAN SAY THAT VISUAL
LANGUAGE USES IMAGES TO
COMMUNICATE.
6. VISUAL LENGUAGE is one of the most
important communication systems in our
world because everybody can understand
it, no matter what country they are from
or the language they speak.
IMAGES are everywhere to communicate
us some information: publicity, movies,
magazines, games…
9. Visual language is expressed by images.
Images represent reality, but they aren’t reality.
What is it?
This isn’ t an apple
This is an image that
represent an apple
10. The similarity between an image and the reality
is called ICONICITY.
There are different degrees of iconicity,
depending on this similarity.
High degree of iconicity
Medium degree of iconicity
Low degree of iconicity
11. HIGH DEGREE OF ICONICITY
The image is nearly an exact copy of reality.
Antonio López – Gran via
12. We call this image REALISTIC because we can
recognize it as something real. It is a copy of the
reality.
Ron Mueck – Big
head
13. The image has something in common with
reality. We can recognize it.
Paul Klee – Cat and bird
MEDIUM DEGREE OF ICONICITY
14. We call this image FIGURATIVE because we can
recognize it as something real (a human figure,
an animal, a landscape), but it isn’t a copy of
reality. It’s an interpretation of reality.
Pablo R. Picasso – Dora Maar’s portrait
15. The image is completely different from reality.
We aren’t able to recognize it as something real.
Mark Rothko – Number 8
LOW DEGREE OF ICONICITY
16. We call this image ABSTRACT BECAUSE the
image has nothing in common with reality. It is
impossible to recognize it.
Joan Miró – Seated woman
