What is the role of coursebook??? Is it a safety blanket, a shield for teachers?? Do we feel dependent on the coursebook??Is it relevant to our learners' needs? Or is it designed from someone who doesn't really know the situation, our context??
However, if we don't rely exclusively on the coursebook and we believe that it doesn't always meet our learner's needs, I am wondering if efl teachers are willing to supplement, adapt or even design their own materials. Do we feel insecure to do something like that?? Are we bored?? Is the lack of time or the lack of training a problem??
In case we adapt the materials when do we do it, why and how?
Do we CHALLENGE the coursebook?Publish Post
