1. In your own words, define “materials” and material development

Definition of “materials” Definition of “material development”

Materials is one of the very crucial Materials development refers to all the
elements that have to exist to conduct processes made use of by practitioners
teaching/learning activities. Whatever who produce and/or use materials for
materials used by teachers, generally language learning, including materials
serve as the basis for much language evaluation, their adaptation, design,
input that the learners receive and the production, exploitation and research of
language practice that occur in the language teaching materials
classroom

Learning Activity: Make a research of the negative and positive points regarding
material development for Q and A Paired Discussion of two students about the current
trends and issues in material development via google meet using the guide questions.
Write the responses in a one- half sheet of paper and submit online.

1. What are the negative points of current trends and issues in material development?
Answer : There is an assumption that most learners have short attention spans, can
only cope with very short reading and writing texts and will only engage in activities
for a short of time. Because nowadays, we are in 21st century skills and it is already
modernized of the impact of technology.

2. What are the positive trends of materials development?

 Answer: There are some materials requiring by the learners in order for them to make
discoveries for themselves from analysis of samples of language in use. Definitely, this
is one of the positive trends wherein English teachers might be creative in making
materials through exploration and discovery of the learners.

Learning Activity: look for a partner and conduct a think, pair and share to relate the
principles and theories of language learning to the development of appropriate
language learning materials the via google meet.

Self-evaluation

1. Justify how language activities engage and affect (i.e. emotional involvement,
positive attitudes towards the learning experience and self-esteem) learners to
build personal mental processing?
Answer: Language plays a role in emotion because language supports the
conceptual knowledge used to make meaning of sensations from the body and
world in a given context. Language scaffolds concept knowledge in humans,
helping humans to acquire abstract concepts such as emotion categories across
the lifespan. language has naught to do with emotion. Surely, the things that
people say affect our emotions, and we can describe our emotions (or the
emotions we see in others) with words after the fact.

knowledge and development of self- confidence and self- actualization. Through
 materials development we can create an effective teaching strategy and enable a
student to learn engagingly. It is a practical undertaking involving the production,
evaluation, adaptation and exploitation of materials intended to facilitate language
acquisition and development.

2. Principle of material development

Answer: In terms of material development, we need to consider two key questions,
namely what should be provided for learners as materials and how to give them to
learners. Materials is the key of material development is intuition or tacit knowledge
which they know what work and what won’t work based on their experiences. This
principles of materials development are a belief or ways that need to consider in order
to create materials in language teaching.

Answer:
Materials do not exist in a vacuum. They are part of the whole context of language
learning, including the philosophical and belief-systems of stakeholders. Depending
on what we think language is for and how we think people learn languages, so our
materials will differ. So we cannot separate materials from more general issues to do
with language and language learning. Materials should be authentic and relatable to
learners.

This process aids in the learning process by allowing
the student to explore the knowledge independently
as well as providing repetition. Learning materials,
regardless of what kind, all have some function in
student learning.
