FLASHCARDS MATERIALS DEVELOPMENT
Cards in this deck (10)
- 1—Materials development means all the processes made use of by teachers as propositions of action in the classroom.
- 2—Coursebooks today are almost obsolete, aren't focused on Ss needs and are standardised, directive and centralised.
- 3—Tsui explains that less experienced teachers make more use of the coursebook. And that the most experienced are more selective and varied with the material.
- 4—The McDonalization of the materials used in class are more and more common, for example in coursebooks sequences that are repeated throughout the units can be evidenced without any presence of innovation.
- 5—It is there where education becomes a business, because due to neoliberalism McDonalization is even more entrenched in society, through the different mechanisms that this current uses, for example educational institutions that many people graduate without much preparation to put them into production.
- 6—Converting students and what an educational process entails into an economic transaction.
SCHOOL: PROVIDER
COSTUMERS: STUDENTS
PREMIUM PRODUCTS: DIPLOMAS AND JOBS/CONTRACTS
- 7—Teachers are agents of change to combat all these problems.
Richards (2005): "All materials reflect the wrIters theories of language, language use and language acquisition".
- 8—With this in mind, teachers must create our own material so that this transaction is combated. For example, cultural identity must be enriched, something that as globalization increases, it is lost, homogenizing the world.
- 9—In addition, today teachers have various tools for materials development, for example: CALL, web sources and ICTs
- 10—These new technologies allow us to express all the creativity and authenticity that the students need in the materials, also to the interaction of the language outside of class and finally and very important is that the access to learning is even greater, since there are children who do not have access to a school but yes to a cell phone.
