  7. 7Tomlinson who proposes ways of applying commonly agreed theories of language acquisition to materials development.
    The principles proposed include:
    • the language experience needs to be contextualised and comprehensible
    • the learner needs to be motivated, relaxed, positive and engaged
    • the language and discourse features available for potential acquisition need to be salient,
    meaningful and frequently encountered
    • the learner needs to achieve deep and multi-dimensional processing of the language    Image for question 7
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  8. 8Johnson (2003) focused on expertise in [blank_start]task design[blank_end]. He studied the literature on [blank_start]task-based[blank_end]
    teaching but found nothing on the procedures involved in actually writing a task, so he set up
    an experiment in which eight expert materials writers and eight novices were asked to ‘design
    an activity involving the [blank_start]function[blank_end] of describing people’     Image for question 8
    1. Atask design
    2. Bhomework
    3. Ctask-based
    4. Dtask-design

  9. 9Tomlinson & Masuhara (2012) explores the connection between [blank_start]applied[blank_end] linguistics theory
    and [blank_start]materials development[blank_end]. Each chapter focuses on a particular aspect of [blank_start]applied[blank_end] linguistics
    and evaluates the match between current theory and current materials development practice    Image for question 9
    1. Aapplied
    2. Bmaterials development
    3. Capplied
  10. 10Tomlinson found that teachers in twelve countries around the world specified their main
    want as interesting texts and their main [blank_start]need[blank_end] as not having to spend a lot of time preparing
    [blank_start]lessons[blank_end]. In Tomlinson (2003a) there are reports on research into the use of [blank_start]electronic materials[blank_end]
    (Derewianka 2003), hyperfiction (Ferradas Moi 2003), materials for beginners (Cook 2003),
    the realisation of primary school coursebook tasks in the classroom (Ghosn 2003), and the
    development of [blank_start]textbooks[blank_end] (Lyons 2003; Popovici & Bolitho 2003; Singapore Wala 2003). All
    these chapters make suggestions for applying theory to [blank_start]practice[blank_end]. In Tomlinson (2008a) there
    is a chapter on language [blank_start]acquisition[blank_end] and language-learning materials (Tomlinson 2008b) and
    numerous chapters reporting systematic evaluations of materials in different regions of the
    world.    Image for question 10
