  1. 1What does "material development" refer to?Imagen de la pregunta 1
    1. AAll the processes made use of by practitioners who produce and/or use materials for language learning.
    2. BAnything that can be used to facilitate the learning of a language.
    3. CProviding all the different learning ways of acquiring a language for the learners to experience and sometimes select from.
  2. 2Materials for language learning can be:Imagen de la pregunta 2
    1. AAdaptive, informative, eliciting and experimental.
    2. BInstructional, exploratory, analytic.
    3. CInformative, Instructional, experimental, eliciting and exploratory.
  3. 3Materials development includes materials evaluation, their adaptation and design.Imagen de la pregunta 3
    1. AVerdadero
    2. BFalso
  4. 4According to Tomlinson materials evaluation:Imagen de la pregunta 4
    1. AEvaluation is inevitably subjective, that it ‘focuses on the users of the materials’ and attempts to measure the potential or actual effects of the materials on their users.
    2. BEvaluation checklists are too demanding of time and expertise to be useful to teachers, too vague to be answerable, too context bound to be generalisable, too confusing to be useable and too lacking in validity to be useful.
    3. CShould be a process for generating principled criteria instead of an unrealistic set of criteria for all contexts. There are universal and local criteria, the former being those that can be used to evaluate materials for any learner anywhere.
    4. DMust be an external evaluation ‘that offers a brief overview from the outside’
      and then carry out ‘a closer and more detailed internal evaluation’.
  5. 5Considering how teachers adapt materials systematically or intuitively every day, there is surprisingly little help for them in the literature.Imagen de la pregunta 5
    1. AVerdadero
    2. BFalso
  6. 6In materials production, reports of how writers actually write materials reveal that they rely heavily on retrieval from
    repertoire, cloning successful publications and spontaneous [blank_start]‘inspiration’.[blank_end]    Imagen de la pregunta 6
    1. A‘inspiration’.
    2. B‘ideas’.
    3. C‘creativity’.
    4. D‘imagination’.
  7. 7Tomlinson (2003) in terms of [blank_start]Material exploitation[blank_end] proposes classroom procedures to help teachers to humanise their coursebooks. For this author there are many unexpected ways of using a textbook but not many publications reporting what he found to be a classroom reality of teachers doing it their own way. In other words what is above all is how teachers use their textbooks as resources rather than as scripts.Imagen de la pregunta 7
    1. AMaterial exploitation
    2. BMaterials evaluation
    3. CMaterials Production
    4. DMaterials research
  8. 8Some proponents of the coursebook argue the textbook is the best medium for delivering language-learning materials because ...Imagen de la pregunta 8
    1. Ait is cost-effective way of providing the learner with security, system, progress and revision, whilst at the same time saving precious time and offering teachers the resources they need to base their lessons on.
    2. Bit imposes uniformity of syllabus and approach, and it removes initiative and power from teachers’.
    3. CIt helps administrators to achieve course credibility, timetable lessons and standardise teaching.
    4. DIt has been argued that textbooks are invested with so little authority that it is easy for teachers or students to challenge or adapt them.
  9. 9Such researchers as Little et al. (1994), Bacon & Finneman (1990), Kuo (1993), McGarry (1995),Wong,Kwok&Choi (1995),Nuttall (1996),Mishan (2005),Gilmore (2007a, 2007b) and Rilling & Dantas Whitney (2009) argue that [blank_start]authentic materials[blank_end] can provide meaningful exposure to language as it is actually used, motivate learners and help them develop a range of communicative competencies and enhance positive attitudes towards the learning of a language.
    1. Aauthentic materials
    2. Bcoursebooks
    3. Chumanised materials
    4. Dtechnologies
  10. 10There are too many materials producers who are also academic theorists and researchers, and there is too much research into the design and effects of materials, going on to suggest ways of connecting research and materials development.
    1. AVerdadero
    2. BFalso
