The Appropriateness of Materials or Aids to Learners and Aims
Aim:
to build awareness of the range of reasons why materials or aids might be appropriate/inappropriate for use with a particular class or lesson
Target Audience:
teacher trainers/candidates
Relevance to TKT:
Module 2 Part 2
Organisation:
pair and/or group work
Materials needed:
Materials brought in by trainees
For homework, ask trainees to think of one example each of an aid or piece of supplementary material or a coursebook which would be inappropriate to use with one of their classes.
In the next lesson, trainees bring in their example (if possible) and tell one another about their choice and the reason why they think it is inappropriate.
They then decide on a group of learners for whom it would be appropriate.
