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.

As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
This presentation provides an introduction to quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis and marker-assisted selection (MAS) in plant breeding. The presentation begins by explaining the type of quantitative traits. The process of QTL analysis, including the use of molecular genetic markers and statistical methods, is discussed. Practical examples demonstrating the power of MAS are provided, such as its use in improving crop traits in plant breeding programs. Overall, this presentation offers a comprehensive overview of these important genomics-based approaches that are transforming modern agriculture.
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.

6. Relationship between the music, lyrics and visuals
•Song doesn’t necessarily go with the
video – quite unpredictable
•Quite simple, and so entropic
•Many props and different costumes
used
•Sexualisation of women
•Dancing in a pop video
•‘Male Gaze’

another thing we need to
consider when making
our music video. We need
to make sure that all of
our extras and ourselves
are safe in the
environment in which
we’re working.
Editor's Notes
-play song- Andrew Goodwin says that a ‘music video is a response to the music’ – Baring this in mind Stacey and I used Synaesthesia to try and envisage what we saw our music video being like. We shared both of our ideas and put them into this moodboard.
This is our mood board. We believe that this completely represents what we want our video to be like. The pin up girls are examples of what we would like some of the models to look like. We have also included a header from Kanye West’s video Gold Digger. We would love to be able to do something like this in the post production stages of our video. We have also included pictures of props that we would like to include in our video, things like the milkshake, ice cream sundae, telephone, beach ball, hairbrush, curlers etc. We have included a picture of red lipstick and a eye with fake eyelashes on it, this is how me and stacey envisaged the make up of the models looking.
- Read slide, go into more detail -
Here are some examples of what we would like our models to look like. Preferably we would like to have 8-10 models in our video. Our lead singer will be dressed a lot like Stacey, featured above. We want her to be a strong looking woman, and we thought that the stereotypical ‘Rosie’ would be the ideal for our leading lady. Even though this is the type of dress theme that we are going for we would prefer ‘Rosie’ to have a pink bandana as we believe it will look more contemporary and would appeal more to our younger audience.
Here are some other examples of what we would like our models to look like. We definitely would like a sailor girl in our video, aswell as a more glamorous girl, like featured on the left. Other types of pin up girl that we would like are, Housewife, Mechanic, very much the typical stereotypical pin up girls..
Read slide, go more into detail, click on the link and read about the male gaze.
We have created a slide where we have created a character profile of our audience. We believe our demographic audience are white females aged 14-17. Our secondary audience, that we believe would appeal more to the music video are males, aged 15-20. We believe both our demographic audience and secondary audience would be C2/D on the jicnar scale. We believe they would be hedonists, mainstreamers, aspirers and materalists.
These are some of the women that influenced our ideas. We loved the idea of focusing on the 1940’s theme and these were some of the women that came into our minds. Women like Kat Von D, influenced us as she has a very fun pin-up look and yet is more contemporary as she is tattooed. Also Katy Perry is a very popular artist nowadays and also has that slight modern pin-up girl look. Dita is probably one of the more traditional pin-up models, but we believe her style and grace is something we would look for when deciding how to dress our girls. Rosie is a huge influence to us as she is one of the most well-known pin ups of the 1940’s, we believe that she has a huge influence on our video.
Here are some examples of our influences. – play some of the videos-
Our video is going to be a performance video, with some dancing in a studio setting. We’d like our music video to be quite artistic as well as quite low budget. Our video would have a Semantic meaning, which means that , ‘This code refers to connotation within the story that gives additional meaning over the basic denotative meaning of the word.It is by the use of extended meaning that can be applied to words that authors can paint rich pictures with relatively limited text and the way they do this is a common indication of their writing skills.’
Health and Safety Issues – Loose wires, tape them down. Heavy props, more than one person helping. Tripping over tripods – Folded away when not in use. High Heels, could cause ankle injury, remove when not in use. Lighting, can be heavy, more than one person helping, break easily, only experience people should manage the lighting equipment.
