Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The focus of this course is initially on the evaluation and design of the main 'building blocks' out of which units of teaching materials are constructed, i.e., 'input' in the form of texts, and related learning activities. These will be looked at in turn in terms of each of the main areas of teaching they involve, viz: reading/listening, writing, speaking, vocabulary, grammar and communication 'tasks'. This will be followed by work involving the evaluation and design of overall units of teaching material. The last main block of work will be concerned with approaches to course-book evaluation. A number of 'cross-cutting' issues will also be discussed in the course of dealing with these topics, e.g., 'authenticity', socio-cultural content, the role of the course-book, and so on.
Assessment and permitted materials
1. Participation in class and group discussions and presentations.
2. Brief overview of theorising/research concerning an area of teaching, and evaluation and adaptation of a section of related published teaching material.
