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.

Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
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.

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.
The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
2. CHUCK CLOSE
Watch the clip ‘On following the
Grid’ (on dept website)
Why did Close start using the
grid in the first place?
How does he paint each
square?
Why doesn’t he feel the need to
step back form the painting to
see how he is getting on?

4. Self Portrait
“Inspiration is for amateurs. The rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait
around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightening to strike you in the brain, you are
not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process;
they come out of the work itself.” ― Chuck Close
7. The creation of self-portraits can create a connection to yourself and your artwork.
Artists represent themselves from both their own internal views and the way they feel
the world sees (or should see) them.
Using different materials, methods and perspectives can help portray the same subject
in a new and interesting way.
What is the purpose of a self-
portrait?
In what ways do artists
represent themselves?

18. LESSON 8: Alter EgosLESSON 8: Alter Egos
An alter ego is a second self. A person who has an alter ego is said
to lead a double life.
International artist Moritz Wehrmann was invited by WERK to show 'Alter Ego’ at
Longbridge Light Festival. The installation which blurs the lines between Science
and Art was one of the highlights of Longbridge Light Festival (part of LPAP)
exhibited in an empty cavernous industrial unit situated on the grounds of the former
Longbridge car factory. Queues formed throughout the night with over 550
participants entering the mysterious black box structure, two at a time, where they
saw their bodies merge together through the use of special glass and light
technology

19. ‘Pearls on by day, tattoos out by
night’ –
a photographer's cleverly-styled
images show how people often have
more than one side to them.
Toby Dixon, 34, who is based in
Sydney, Australia, recruited a stylist
and make-up artist to transform a
man and woman's appearance into
two halves and captured the pair's
alter egos on camera.
On the one side they look distinctly
'serious', with combed hair,
buttoned-up collars and glasses,
while on the other they appear more
'playful', displaying inches of inked
flesh and cheeky smirks.
Toby Dixon
20. Dixon proudly said about this project, "No cutting, no comping, no
Photoshop trickery."
21. Cindy Sherman reveals how dressing up
in character began as a kind of
performance and evolved into her earliest
photographic series.
Cindy Sherman invents a myriad of
disguises, metamorphosing from
Hollywood starlet to clown to society
matron.
Often with the simplest of means—a
camera, a wig, makeup, an outfit—
Sherman fashions ambiguous but
memorable characters that suggest
complex lives lived out of frame.
Sherman's investigations have a
compelling relationship to public images,
from kitsch to art history (Old Masters and
Surrealism) to green-screen technology
and the latest advances in digital
photography.

23. Paul Smith
Smith acts as the unnamed hero for these dramatics, in a Die-Hard, James Bond
style character. Although independently coherent, the images are a deliberately
montage that creates a scene that is clearly fake. By doing this Smith avoids any
documentary overtones and produces an entirely fantastical environment in which to
play the hero.
24. HOMEWORK: Superhero Images (Collage and drawing double page)
Grade 3 Grade 4 Grade 5
Image is cut out and
superimposed on a
different background. The
drawing is mainly line with
limited shading.
The image is thoughtfully
created with some
thought about camera
angle and lighting. The
drawing shows a range of
3 or more tones.
The photograph is well
taken with consideration
for lighting , camera angle
and pose. The background
has been carefully chosen
to fit the scene. The
drawing is an excellent
copy of the collage
showing 5 different tones
creating depth in the
image
1. Take photographs of yourself in super
hero poses.
2. Cut yourself out of the photographs and
collage yourself into different
backgrounds. (You can use photoshop if
you prefer.)
3. Stick the finished collage in your book.
4. Draw your scene in pen or pencil. Fill the
page.
25. LESSON 8: Practical Task
Learning Objective:
Interpret the work of John Stezaker.
Consider composition carefully to create an
effective portrait.
Learning Outcome:
Combine your portrait with your neighbour’s in different ways to create a
range of outcomes.
John Stezaker
Alternative way to collage
26. John Stezaker
In pairs create a combined portrait.
Experiment with repeating features,
cutting images up horizontally,
vertically or diagonally.
Extension: Create a painting of this
collage in black and white acrylic.
27. Charlotte Caron
The paintings of artist Charlotte Caron explore both the ancient tendency to
humanize animals and the dreams of humans to transform into animals.
Caron’s acrylic paintings of animal faces are set on the photographed portraits of
people as if they were masks. The people of the photographs not only assume the
appearance of the animals, but nearly seem to embody corresponding
personalities
LESSON 9: Animal Instinct
28. Daniel Lee, ‘Manimals’
One of the disturbing
things about Daniel Lee's
“Manimals,” is how normal
they appear, at least at
first.
Even more disturbing,
however, is how possible
they seem in the gene-
splicing age.
Bare-shouldered, Lee's
creations either look off
into the distance or straight
ahead, evoking such a
quiet dignity through their
seamlessly merged
features it almost feels
impolite to stare.
29. Which animal best reflects your personality?
Animal Characteristic Animal Characteristic
Fox Sly Lion Fierce, brave
Cat Independent Meerkat Quick witted, caring
Owl Wise, thoughtful Dove Calm, innocence
Monkey Cheeky, happy Adder Cunning, wisdom
Cheetah Quick, focussed Deer Gentleness
Dog Faithful Peacock Beautiful
30. Combine a photo of yourself and an animal of your choice. It could be your pet at home?
Try to think about the personality of the animal and how it may affect your portrait. Does
the animal reflect who you are or who you want to be?
Collage your portrait together with an animal. You do not have to follow a straight line.
31. Once you have your animal /human hybrid collage, photograph it and open it in a word document.
Turn it into a ‘Cut-out’ image. In Word, select the image, select Format then Artistic Effects and Cut-
out.
LESSON 10- Image Manipulation
If you are doing this in Photoshop: open the image, select Filters, then Cut-Out. Select the number of
layers that allows you to see the image without it becoming too complicated. Eg. 5
Trace your new stencil image onto A4 tracing paper. Your teacher will then photocopy this image on
to A3 cartridge paper ready for you to paint next week.
32. Before you begin mix 8 different
tones of paint using just black and
white and create a tonal scale in
your sketchbook.
Begin to paint in the very lightest
tones on your painting.
Refer closely to the original image.
LESSON 11
Learning Objective:
Develop an understanding of mixing shades and tones using acrylic paint.
Learn from painting experiments before starting the final painting.
Learning Outcome:
Painting experiments and the lightest tones on the painting filled in.
33. LESSONS 12 & 13
Learning Objective:
Improve control of colour
mixing and applying paint to
complete the painting.
Learning Outcome:
Complete the mid tones then
finish with the darkest tones to
complete the painting.
