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 Library & Information Professionals have been playing an important
role in knowledge cultivation and knowledge Management since time immemorial.
Rapid advances in multidisciplinary explorations and furtherance of conventional
knowledge base have posed new challenges before the Library & Information

to redefine their role in its present context & has to manage the knowledge in
more efficient way. This volume aims to present a few cases with underlying
principles ofknowledge management.
This volume presents a cross-section of chapters that will enable a
reader to drive into the new notion of Knowledge Management, Bibliometric
Analysis, Data Mining, Citation Analysis and other Facets of Knowledge
Management. Starting with emerging scenarios in the broad arena of Knowledge
Management, it goes deep into the illustrative cases of Bibliometric Analysis,
Data Mining and Citation Analysis. I hope that the papers included in the volume
will be very useful to the readers. I hope you will enjoy reading this book and
thank my colleagues who have contributed their ideas thus making this book
possible.
I take this opportunity to thank the Director, Faculty, Staff members
