  3. 3 books on language [blank_start]teaching methodology[blank_end] also

    materials
    1. Amaterials development
    2. Bteaching methodology
    3. Capproaches

    1. AEstablishing criteria
    2. Bevaluation instruments
  5. 5The [blank_start]literature[blank_end] on materials development has come a long way, now focusing less on ways of [blank_start]selecting[blank_end] [blank_start]materials[blank_end] and more on the [blank_start]application[blank_end] of [blank_start]theory[blank_end] to [blank_start]practice[blank_end] and [blank_start]practice[blank_end] to [blank_start]theory[blank_end]
    1. Aliterature

    3. Cmaterials
    4. Dapplication
    5. Etheory
    6. Fpractice
    7. Gpractice

  6. 6learning will always be related with [blank_start]social contex[blank_end]. for this reason is important use that [blank_start]context[blank_end] to [blank_start]improve[blank_end] teaching and learning [blank_start]processes[blank_end].

  7. 7The late 1960s to the late 1970s
    the era was marked by a shift towards [blank_start]alternative[blank_end] [blank_start]ways[blank_end] of doing [blank_start]things[blank_end], it did not take long for [blank_start]innovations[blank_end] in language teaching
    1. Aalternative
    2. Bways
    3. Cthings
    4. Dinnovations
  8. 8 the mid 1980s onward
    external influences have become much more [blank_start]directive[blank_end], increasingly leading to the implementation of a more [blank_start]centralised[blank_end] and [blank_start]standardised[blank_end] view of what language teaching should be about. The variety
    and exuberance of [blank_start]experimental[blank_end] and new approaches through the 1970s–1990s has now been superseded
    by a sameness throughout [blank_start]commercial[blank_end] [blank_start]publishing[blank_end].

    2. Bcentralised
    3. Cstandardised
    4. Dexperimental
    5. Ecommercial
    6. Fpublishing
  9. 9process of McDonaldization is evident in the
    [blank_start]standardisation[blank_end] of [blank_start]teacher[blank_end] training such as the Cambridge CELTA courses and UK PGCE course,
    where, for example, teacher [blank_start]reflection[blank_end] has seemingly been reduced to [blank_start]routinized[blank_end] exercises – scripts,
    lacking face validity
    1. Astandardisation
    2. Bteacher
    3. Creflection
    4. Droutinized
  10. 10we need to [blank_start]start[blank_end] in language
    [blank_start]teaching[blank_end], by resisting the manner in which uniformity is being imposed, and by wrestling back
    curriculum [blank_start]decisions[blank_end] into the hands of those directly involved – [blank_start]teachers[blank_end] and [blank_start]learners[blank_end].
    1. Astart
    2. Bteaching
    3. Cdecisions
