Materials to use for teaching, whether to use course books or not, vantage points and disadvantages of using coursebook were the target of discussion in this unit. The difference between authentic materials and created materials were also explained.
The dichotomy of using course books as a reference for teaching or not is not a new subject, although not using any book may increase the level of students' interest by increasing the element of surprise , but i, personally prefer the idea of relying openly on a course book.By "openly", my point is to use the book as the main structure of the course so that i can measure the progress when needed, but solely the structure is borrowed and all the materials to fill the structure will be chosen from authentic materials. Any necessary material will be tailored to needs of students.
thus, the course will be entertaining, not rigid and predictable and above all useful for students as they can relate the up-to-date materials to their every-day needs.
