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.

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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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.
2. “We All Fall Down” by Eric Walters takes place on September 10th and 11th, 2001 in New Your City. Will Fuller is joining his fathers workplace for Take Your Kid to Word Day. John Fuller works in the South Tower of the World Trade Center. Will barely see’s his father because he is constantly busy with his job, and is worried that his father will be too busy to spend time with him during the day. All of a sudden, as Will is meeting John’s co-workers and learns how respected his father is, a plane crashes into the North Tower of the WTC. With fears of the South Tower being hit, Will’s father evacuates the whole tower. Some floors refuse to do so. When a plane ends up hitting the South Tower, Will and John must find a way to escape, as the main set of stairs are blocked. They locate another set, and must work together to get to the bottom of the South Tower to save their lives while reaching road blocks along the way.
3. Characters Will Fuller: a grade nine student going with his father to the World Trade Center for Bring Your Child to Work Day John Fuller: Will’s father who is a highly respected employee of the South Tower of the WTC Ting: a Chinese women who John and Will meet on the staircase while trying to escape from the building, and is suffering from major injuries from the impact James Bennett: Will’s best friend James’ Father: a fire fighter in New York City Mrs. Phelps: Will and James’ history teacher
4. Casting George Clooney as John Fuller Jenna Ushkowitz as Ting Nicholas Cage as James’ Father Freddie Highmore as Will Fuller Sandra Bullock as Mrs. Phelps
5. Location The location I have chosen for the film of “We All Fall Down” is New York City in order to keep the essence of the lifestyle and atmosphere that the citizens have on a day to day basis, like September 11th, 2001. New York City would also help because of the scenery, which is very difficult to re-create. For some scenes, an office and house of choice would also be needed and can be located anywhere, but preferably in New York. If needed, it can be recreated on a sound stage.
6. Why Should This Book Become a Major Motion Picture? “We All Fall Down” is one of those books that grabs your attention and makes it very difficult for you to put down at night. When reading this book, and following the journey as Will and his father attempt to make their way to safety, every moment was filled with suspense and I never knew what was going to happen next. The novel shows us as readers what it would have been like to be inside the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks, and even from a point of view of someone our own age, which is why this would be a good film for a younger audience. If presented in the screenplay, the idea of suspense would keep adults who have a bit more understanding on the edge of their seats craving to know what is coming next. The book is very well written, and it is proven fact that every good novel is transferred from the page to the screen, yet “We All Fall Down” is the only one missing. If successful, a sequel to “We All Fall Down” titled “United We Stand” (the sequel to “We All Fall Down” also written by Eric Walters) may be an option.
