ELT 4 LESSON 81

Many teachers use workbooks, activity books and DVDs as well as the main coursebook they are using.

These have to be written clearly so that students know exactly what to do.

It is important to do this so that students get ‘repetitions of encounter’ with what they have studied.

It is always a good idea to do this before we make a final decision to definitely use a new coursebook in an educational institution.

Some teachers do this because they are not very keen on coursebooks etc.

These often provide extra material and allow students to post their homework

Some teachers mix work from a paper coursebook with online teaching and learning material.

You can find a lot of advice here about how to use the coursebook that you and your students are following.
