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 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?
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”.

8. YES EUROPE is a portal for support and advice on
international mobility and European projects
promoted by the Building Bridges Association,
based in Madrid.
Our group is composed of professionals
delighted to help and advise private and public
entities in order to write and manage
international projects.
Until present day, thanks to several cooperation
agreements with public and private institutions
we actively participate in international
networks.
We were able to carry out many projects under
the old Youth in Action, Citizens Programme
and Lifelong Learning Programme. Now we
continue our work with Erasmus+, Europe for
Citizens and Creative Europe programmes..
The main goal of our group is to promote
international mobility and raise awareness
among young Spanish and European people on
topics such as social inclusion, integration and
promotion of active citizenship, using only non-
formal education.
Among the projects developed we include the
European Voluntary Service, youth exchanges,
international trainings, Erasmus+ traineeships
and so on.
These projects have many young people able to
take advantage of international mobility
experience, now it's your turn!.
Most projects are open to young people
between 18 and 30 years and allow
unforgettable experiences traveling and living
without many expenses (in many cases projects
covered the accommodation, food and much of
the total trip).
Our group is also a member of several European
networks of expert trainers and project
managers, with the common goal of: offer
young and old the opportunity to access
mobility programs in educational, vocational,
educational and cultural field to promote
cultural exchange, improve personal skills
and practice English.

What we do
9. All the activities we offer are based on the aims of our association: to provide information and
guidance to young people with the following principles:
-Promote intercultural dialogue to facilitate a better understanding of other cultures.
- Educate youth on the European citizenship values.
- Support all cultural, educational and / or artistic expression based on the above values.
- Promote the social construction of Europe.
We believe that transnational experience could offer young people the opportunity to grow
within a European dimension thanks to their personal and professional skills, so that they could
play a main role of the European future.
Building Bridges promoted different activities and projects, mainly in the field of European
programs such as "Youth in Action" (European Voluntary Service, Youth for Europe: Youth
Exchanges, Youth Initiatives, Training of youth workers), LLP Lifelong Learning Programme
"Leonardo da Vinci "(training work: mobility - PLM / IVT / VETPRO), and others, for the following
purposes: to offer young people the opportunity to access mobility programs in academic,
professional and cultural level to increase understanding between cultures and different systems
; promote the meeting between cultures and linguistic deepening in a local context, promoting
this dynamic mode intercultural learning and understanding; promote responsibility and active
participation of young people in society. Now with Erasmus+ we follow the same aims as previuos
years.
We have created a web with European voluntary opportunities for young Spanish, with
information on training, internships, exchanges and employment in Spain and Europe
(http://www.yeseuropa.org).
Activities I
10. Our main activities are:
1.YOUTH INFORMATION: We worked as volunteers in Europe with the Erasmus and Leonardo projects.
We would like other European young people have the chance of living in another European country. It was
a real change for us years ago thanks to the information we had.
Our goal now is to counsel and to encourage them to start their own adventure. We are devoted to the
european youth information. We have all experienced that years ago. There are many channels of
information on european announcements so we tend to spread them within the young people.
2. COUNCELLING:
Our main goal is counseling, informing, guiding and supporting the young graduates to continue their
studies in order to have access to the labour market. Within the activities oriented to entry the labour
market, Building Bridges helps:
I. Managing and broadcasting job offers
II. Informing about self employement and counseling for the creation of new companies.
We are aware of the markets requests for young people and graduates. All the members of the association
have already experiences dificulties when they were going to be hired in a competitive market and in
process of recession.
3, RESOURCES ON CULTURE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
We are already creating a web page with updated information and new communication channels used by
young people on internships, grants, aids, festivals, etc... We want to work not just as an information
centre but we are working on different communication channels (Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn,
etc) to spread and Exchange ideas and information for the professionals working in the field of culture.
4.TRAINING
We offer training courses in the field of the cultural, educational and European management projects.
5. CULTURAL ACTIVITIES
All these years our association has developed many intercultural exchanges in the local and internacional
field giving young people the opportunity to be responsible and to get involved and to participate actively
in society.
From the beginning we have taken care of the training and volunteers through the participation in courses
and seminars promoted by other companies and organisation in some other activities.
