This unit was especially helpful to me for two reasons. First, it empowered me to be creative in developing supplemental materials for my students. Second, it showed me additional examples of classroom materials that can be effectively used.
I think that coursebooks are a great resource, but would have to agree with the disadvantages listed as well--especially that they can become boring, not only for the students but also for the teacher. By allowing the teacher the creativity to develop and teach materials that are more relevant to her students, it will keep the teacher challenged, interested, and excited. If you, as a teacher, are not excited to teach, the students will certainly be able to tell, and this boredom will infect them and their learning.
I am also excited about "hunting" for authentic materials that are relevant and level-appropriate for my students. This, too, is a creative activity for the teacher, as there are so many different sources for authentic materials just waiting to be noticed.
