Now is the time! Keynote address, Northern Sydney TLs Conference, 15 May 2014Syba Academy
My keynote to the Northern Sydney Teacher Librarians Conference, Checkers Resort, Terrey Hills, NSW. My main message was to 'unthink the way you live and work' and rediscover yourself. The introduction of the Australian Curriculum provides teacher librarians with many rich opportunities to establish or invigorate their teaching role. This presentation explores the richness that inquiry learning offers as an interdisciplinary approach to support students in exploring the world, and developing important critical and creative skills, understandings and dispositions along the way.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

9. Administrator Quotes
This elementary school has a librarian who has
instilled a love of reading in all students,
including the most reluctant. She finds books that
are appealing to individual students & sets them
aside. This individual attention has created a
library that is magical in the eyes of our students.
Our high school has an inspiring new librarian.
She makes the library a study, technology &
research resource. She encourages teachers to
partner with her on writing, technology & subject
exploration. Our librarian’s vision & dedication
make our library welcoming to all—especially
poor and refugee students.
10. Teacher Quotes
My kids use the library like crazy, and our
librarian has a very inviting & friendly
personality. Kids just get better the more
the use the library. Thank goodness we have
a librarian who is so available to us.
Ours is a school of readers. The librarian is
instrumental in this. If students don’t like a
book they are reading, they don’t have to read it.
Our librarian helps students find books they are
excited to read. Time and again, reluctant
readers say “I want another book like that.”
11. More Teacher Quotes
Our librarian sends us links to helpful
websites and resources on the web almost
weekly. She always thoroughly checks them
out, and gives us a quick summary of how
they may be helpful in the classroom.
I am lucky & grateful to work in a school with
an excellent librarian. The library truly is
“the academic, social, and emotional
hub of the learning community” as
declared in its mission statement.

work together.
22. Teacher Quotes
I have a very collaborative relationship with
our librarian. Our latest endeavor has lasted 5
years. It has enriched me as an instructor.
Being a fairly new teacher, I am still learning. Our
librarian is one of the first resources I go to
for help.
Our librarian was incredibly helpful to me in
putting together a research project. I have
more confidence as a teacher because of her efforts.
