Özet
In this chapter, the author
concentrates on the use of materials after the coursebook selection process
focusing on two aspects: (1) adapting the selected material through various
techniques or methodological decisions, and (2) designing new materials to supplement
or expand the selected coursebook. The decision about materials adaptation and
design depends on the context of language teaching, needs of the learners, and
realities of the classroom; therefore, the chapter also provides (i) problematic
cases where an adaptation is required, (ii) real teacher-made materials
designed to be used for specific learner groups, and (iii) suggestions for
integrating authenticity into materials development.
