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.
How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.

CLASS XI
MODULE VOICES (Episode 2)
Opening Sequence
VOICE OVER
Remember the two ways a sentence can be expressed---- in ACTIVE VOICE and
in PASSIVE VOICE depending on whether the subject of the sentence is doing
any action or not.
Let us recall a couple of sentences
SUPER APPEARS
i. Man has made the society—The society has been made by man.
ii. The school rules must be followed by the students—The students must
follow the school rules.
iii. The essay was written by me—I wrote the essay.
iv. Who killed the tiger?----By whom was the tiger killed?
Cut to ANCHOR
Each of the three sentences above have been written in two ways yet they
mean the same. We know that they are in two different voices as discussed
earlier.
Learning Objectives

2. PES/ENG/XI/048
It is not just to be able to identify the voice of any sentence but we should be
able to construct sentences in the two voices on our own. For that we need to
know
SUPER APPEARS
1. The difference in the structure of the sentences in the two voices.
2. How to change from one voice to the other without changing the
meaning of the sentence.
Main Content
Cut to ANCHOR
Many a times we think, that just by changing one or two words in a
sentence the voice has changed. But that is not so.
Let us look at the table below:
SUPER APPEARS
Active subject verb object
>
Cats eat fish.
VOICE OVER
In the passive voice, the subject receives the action of the verb:
SUPER APPEARS
Passive subject verb doer/agent
<
Fish is eaten by cats.
VOICE OVER
The structure of the passive voice is very simple:
-2-
3. PES/ENG/XI/048
SUPER APPEARS
subject + auxiliary verb (be/have) + main verb (past participle) +
agent/doer(optional)
The main verb is always in its past participle form. Look at these examples:
subject auxiliary verb (to main verb (past
be) participle)
Water is drunk by everyone.
100 are employed by this company.
people
I am paid in rupees.
We are not paid in dollars.
Are they paid
Cut to ANCHOR
So when we are constructing a sentence with the verb in ACTIVE VOICE we
have to take care that
VOICE OVER
SUPER APPEARS
That the subject is doing the action AND there is an object.
Eg. Sub: I vb: am doing obj: the task.
What makes a man?
Cut to ANCHOR
While writing a sentence with the verb in PASSIVE VOICE the subject is no
longer doing the action. It is done by an agent OR the doer of the work is not
mentioned.
SUPER APPEARS
-3-
4. PES/ENG/XI/048
Eg. i. The clothes have been hung by the maid.
ii. The clothes have been hung. (by the maid)
In both the cases the subject “clothes” is not doing any work.
In i. the work is done by an AGENT/ object.
In ii. the work is done by an object who is not mentioned.
This becomes important when we change from one voice to another.
We have to remember that
SUPER APPEARS
1. The meaning of the sentence DOES NOT CHANGE
2. The tense also DOES NOT CHANGE.
3. The SUBJECT of an active sentence becomes the OBJECT of the
passive sentence and vice versa.
4. The OBJECT of an active sentence becomes the SUBJECT of the
passive sentence and vice versa.
5. The verb of the active voice takes its PAST PARTICIPLE form in
passive voice preceded by vb. ‘to BE’ or vb. ‘to HAVE’ in the SAME
TENSE as the other sentence.
VOICE OVER
Let us have a look at the table
SUPER APPEARS
subject verb object>agent
Active Everybody drinks water.
Passive Water is drunk by everybody
Active Mary had done good work
Passive Good work had been done by Mary
Active Raj will bring your book
Passive Your book will be brought by Raj

5. PES/ENG/XI/048
Active Somebody has stolen my bag
Passive My bag has been stolen ( agent not mentioned)
Active (You) raise the curtain
Passive Let the curtain be raised (by you)
Active Who broke the jug?
Passive By whom was(broken) the jug?
Passive Rules must be followed ?????
Active (All/you/students) must follow rules
Cut to ANCHOR
So you have seen how verbs can be changed from active to passive and passive
to active. But an important point has to be kept in mind.
Remember when we change from ACTIVE to PASSIVE
SUPER APPEARS
The OBJECT of the verb in ACTIVE voice becomes the SUBJECT of the verb in
PASSIVE voice.
VOICE OVER
SUPER APPEARS
So only TRANSITIVE VERBS can be changed to PASSIVE voice and not
INTRANSITIVE VERBS.
WHY?
Because INTRANSITIVE VERBS have NO OBJECTS.
Let us look at the following sentences:
SUPER APPEARS

6. PES/ENG/XI/048
1. Monica eats rice.
2. Monica eats in the morning.
Cut to ANCHOR
What is the difference?
VOICE OVER
SUPER APPEARS
1. Monica eats what?
---Rice
2. Monica eats when?
---in the morning.
Cut to ANCHOR
As RICE in 1.answers to the question WHAT it is the OBJECT of the verb EATS.
In 2. the question put is WHEN and the answer IN THE MORNING is an
ADVERBIAL phrase. So it is NOT an OBJECT.
So sentence 1.can be changed INTO PASSIVE VOICE
SUPER APPEARS
Rice is eaten by Monica.
Cut to ANCHOR
But the second cannot be changed. Try to do it!!
Let us do some teasers. Change these sentences to passive. If it cannot be done
say NO:
(The answers are to come a few seconds later)
SUPER APPEARS
1. I am writing a story.
Ans. A story is being written by me.

7. PES/ENG/XI/048
2. The boy will give a speech.
Ans. A speech will be given by the boy.
3. Raju talks very fast.
Ans. NO
4. Ankit had studied only yesterday.
Ans. NO
5. Madhu burnt her fingers.
Ans. Madhu’s fingers were burnt by her.
6. We all burnt with shame.
Ans. NO
Cut to ANCHOR
So keep this in mind students that only when a verb in a sentence answers to the
question WHAT or WHO only then it has an OBJECT and can be changed to
PASSIVE. For the rest they are only ADVERBIAL PHRASES.
Let us do a few exercises.
SUPER APPEARS
Say which is the object in each of the sentences. If there is no object say NO:
( ans.to appear a few seconds after the question)
1. I bought three books yesterday.
A. three books.
2. Ritesh will throw a party next week.
A. a party.
3. Montu left early in the morning.
A. NO
4. The man paid the fine.
A. the fine.
5. Prateek is an active boy.
A. NO
(Always remember that the word or group of words which comes after any form
the verb ‘be’ is never an object, but a complement.
6. She will go by Monday.
A. NO

8. PES/ENG/XI/048
Let us now recall something we had learnt in our junior classes—kinds of
sentences.
VOICE OVER
SUPER APPEARS
There are FOUR kinds of sentences. They are:
ASSERTIVE—one that makes a statement
Eg. The children are playing cricket.
INTERROGATIVE—one that asks a question
Eg. Who broke this glass?
IMPERATIVE—one that gives commands/orders/requests
Eg. Hang the culprit (order).
Please give me a glass of water (request).
EXCLAMATORY—one that expresses a feeling/emotion
Eg. What a beautiful sight!
Cut to ANCHOR
Of these, the first three can have verbs written in ACTIVE or PASSIVE voice
after fulfilling the condition of the verb having an OBJECT.
Let us try out a few transformations from one voice to another.
VOICE OVER
SUPER APPEARS
ASSERTIVE—ACTIVE: Praveen distributed sweets.
PASSIVE: Sweets were distributed by Praveen.
INTERROGATIVE—ACTIVE: Who will take the responsibility?
PASSIVE: By whom will the responsibility be taken?
ACTIVE: Why should the man punish Manu?
PASSIVE: Why should Manu be punished by the man?
IMPERATIVE—ACTIVE: Raise the curtain.
PASSIVE: Let the curtain be raised.
ACTIVE: Please allow me a day’s leave.
PASSIVE: Please let me be allowed a day’s leave.

Cut to ANCHOR
But where is the subject in an imperative sentence?
One important and interesting point must be noted in the IMPERATIVE
sentence---that apparently the subject IS MISSING. But it definitely is not so.
Actually the subject is nothing but second person YOU. So in active voice it is
YOU ……….. and in passive voice it is ………. BY YOU, both of which need not
be used.
So anytime you need to change from one voice to another in IMPERATIVE put
YOU and BY YOU appropriately and you will have no problem.
There are two ways to change an IMPERATIVE sentence. Look at these
sentences
SUPER APPEARS
.
.
1. Shut the door.
Let the door be shut.
You are ordered to shut the door.
2. Please clean the room.
Let the room be cleaned.
You are requested to clean the room.
Let us tackle some quizzes
(ans.to appear a few seconds after the questions)
SUPER APPEARS
Change from one voice to another:
1. The teacher asked a simple question to the students
A. A simple question was asked by the teacher to the students.
2. The money will be returned by Shyam tomorrow.
A. Shyam will return the money tomorrow.
3. By whom had the clothes been washed?
A. Who had washed the clothes?
4. Can you get an umbrella?

5. Call all the men.

Summary
Cut to ANCHOR
Thus we have seen that the two voices viz. ACTIVE and PASSIVE even though
they express the same meaning in a sentence, have their unique characters.
Also we have seen the changes that need to be put in when we are transforming
one voice to the other. These changes are very important and must be kept in
mind when doing the transformation.
We will now try out a few exercises:
SUPER APPEARS
1. What are the main features of a sentence in ACTIVE VOICE?
--The main features of a sentence in ACTIVE VOICE are a. subject b. object
c. verb
2. How is a sentence in PASSIVE VOICE different from that of an ACTIVE
VOICE?
--A sentence in a PASSIVE VOICE has for its subject that which is the
object of an ACTIVE VOICE.
3. What are the changes that comes to the verb of a sentence in PASSIVE
VOICE ?
The verb in PASSIVE VOICE takes its PAST PARTICIPLE form preceded
by either verb ‘to be’ or ‘to have’.
4. Change the voice of the following sentences:
- 10 -
