WORKSHEET – UNIT 9

 

Task 1 – State the advantages and disadvantages of authentic and created materials. Which kind of materials would you favour for a class of intermediate students? Why?

 

Authentic materials are real materials, such as programs, magazines, newspapers, songs, poems, brochures, menus and more. They are able to give the students confidence and use real life situations. On the other hand, they cannot focus on detailed grammar for the lesson.

Non-authentic materials are designed by the teacher for the level of the students. For example, there are crosswords, word searches, puzzles, gap fills activities and so on. The students can understand well using these materials. However, they cannot use them in real life and they may be bored. This type of material depends on the creative skill of the teacher.

For intermediate students the lesson needs to use authentic and non-authentic materials, because these levels of students are able to understand a large range of issues. They have a lack of vocabulary and grammar, so the teacher needs to use authentic materials for basic learning, at the same time when the teacher finds weaknesses of the student. This part needs to use non-authentic materials to improve their ability.

 

Task 2 – What do you consider to be the advantages and disadvantages of using course books with a class?

 

Using course books with a class has advantages. It lets the students and the teacher be comfortable in a class, because the students expect course books. The course books allow continuity and progression in a class. It has a balanced mix of grammar, vocabulary and skill work as well. Books provide a lot of ideas for the inexperienced teacher, and they can consume their lesson easily. On the other hand, it has disadvantages. It has a lack of specific needs for all the class members. The students could get bored and might be unwilling to use it. In addition, it makes the teachers lazy, and there is no opening for creativity.

 

Task 3 – How can the teacher use the course book to maximum effect?

 

To use a course book to maximum effect teachers should not use the book for the whole lesson. Teachers have to think about looking at a range of methods that could be used for their group, and see which is the most suitable, or which items will motivate their students. Also teachers should judge the book critically, the teacher has to find the differences and difficulties from the course book so that teacher is able to make the lesson good for the students. Therefore, when using the course book, teachers need to use supporting materials in the lesson. The book does not have all the solutions for the lesson.
