Some Conceptual Considerations

Materials are significant constructions of truth and reality. Materials are useful not only as teaching tools, but also as mental images and representations of all connected knowledge.

THE ROLE OF MATERIALS IN THE LANGUAGE CLASSROOM

Teaching Materials and Ideology

Materials produce a language perception that transcends class distinctions to the social and cultural frameworks in which people create human connections and partnerships.

Teaching Materials and Motivation

The development of a language teaching and learning process based on critical attitudes toward subject targets and one's system of values and sentiments can be assisted by teaching materials for both teachers and students.

Teaching Materials and Critical Thinking

Materials should allow students to express a range of opinions while respecting diversity and having a comprehensive awareness of the potential effects that their beliefs may have on society.
