Study Notes
Guideline for Developing Materials
- Needs Assessment is crucial to identify concerns of target learners, and objectives should be drafted based on their interests, problems, and needs.
- A curriculum grid is developed to know learner's needs and decide on content and levels of materials to be produced.
Formats of Materials
- Written materials include booklets, flashcards, charts, and posters.
- Electronic media include audio tapes like songs and dramas, and video presentations.
- Interactive formats include web-based courses.
Principles in Selection and Use of IMs
- Materials should achieve impact, help learners feel at ease, develop confidence, and facilitate learner self-investment.
- Materials should expose learners to authentic use, provide opportunities to use target skills, and take into account learner differences in learning styles.
- Materials should maximize learning potential by encouraging intellectual, aesthetic, and emotional involvement.
Principles in Selection and Use of IMs (continued)
- Materials should not rely too much on controlled practice and provide opportunities for outcome feedback.
- Instructional materials hold the power to either engage or demotivate students.
Materials Evaluation
- Materials evaluation involves measuring the value of a set of learning materials.
- Criteria for selecting materials include the degree of motivation, level and age of students, additional materials, curricular requirements, and more.
Types of Evaluation
- External Evaluation analyzes the introduction and table of contents.
- Internal Evaluation covers an in-depth investigation of the value of the material in relation to its objectives, principles, lesson design, and assessment procedures.
- Overall Evaluation analyzes the value of the material in relation to its usability, generalizability, adaptability, and flexibility.
Materials Adaptation
- Materials adaptation involves making changes to existing materials to better suit specific learners, teachers, and contexts.
- Principles of adapting instructional materials include differentiation, accessibility, alignment, engagement, cultural responsiveness.
- Procedure of adapting instructional materials includes assessment, modification, differentiation, personalization, feedback, and reflection.
