1. Course book evaluation reflection:
This was our third evaluation, equivalent to 25% of the final grade. We
were ordered to evaluate a given textbook by the teacher, and it was evaluated
according to the following areas factual information, topics, methodology, the
language, and skills.
The main objective ofthis evaluation was to assess the effectiveness ofthe texts
provided bythe ministry or whether schools should require parents to buy other
textbooks. In pairs, we evaluated whether the topics agreed with the appropriate
vocabulary to the required level. And we realized that books were approaching
the reality of students, contextualizing the issues of everyday life. The book
contained many '' grammar chart '' that provided with easy to understand
explanations for the students. I think that teachers should use those resources,
and emphasize them in class, in that way learners will see these tables as ''extra
help ''. The book had plenty of pictures of famous people, recognizable to
students, with the goal of students use these examples in exercises, activities
and produce the language. I believe that the book was appropriate for the ages
of 9 to 10 years, and it was adapted to the needs of students. Also, this had a lot
of activities for the development of English as a Foreign Language. I think that
the development of the skills were included, teaching models were identified,
we analyze the structure of the text, its organization, the instructions were
clearly expressed, and the language was clear and progressive. Definitely, the
analysis of the book was crucial to know part of the work of a teacher; I think
this assessment contributes to my life as a student and as a future teacher.
Through a thorough analysis a personcan collect a lot of data that contribute to
the learning of English as a foreign language.
