There are some of the teaching resources often found in classrooms and study centers: 1 White/ black board Basic principles for board-work: start with a clean board; write legibly and neatly; correct writing tool; keep the board clean and easy to read; try to section off the board, to give areas for vocabulary, grammar and notes; use different colors or underlining or circling the important place; adjust writing according to the size of the board; only put essential or requested information on the board; erase it if you don't need anymore; avoid unnecessary capitalisation, as all text on the board should reflect natural writing; accuracy is essential; involve students in the writing process and clean the board at the end of class. 2 Interactive whiteboards Test and have a back-up plan; System selection and location; IWB training regime; Lesson planning with an IWB; Making your own IWB lesson plans; Using the IWB as a screen. 3 Overhead projector Advantages: focuses students attention; OHPs can be prepared in advance, and avoid having back to students while doing board work; Teachers can put OHTs one on the top of the other to show emerging or developing patterns; putting one OHT on top of another allows the teacher to write on top of text without writing on the original OHT; paper or card can be used for cover part of the OHTs, to reveal information gradually; OHTs can model grammar and present vocabulary; they can be used for timed reading, gap fill exercises; perfect tool for feedback; OHTs can be kept in a file and reused time and time again and teachers can take their time over writing OHTs ensuring legibility. Disadvantages: Classroom need a surface that is not bleached out by direct sunlight; some OHPs can be rather complicated or troublesome to set up effectively; the classroom needs to be of a sufficient size to allow for effective projection; the classroom may need recognizing to allow for an uninterrupted projection path. 4 Visual aids Many different types of visual aids can be used in the classroom, but the most common are real objects, pictures and photos. 5 Worksheets and word cards 6 The cassette recorder 7 CD player 8 videos and DVDs There are couple of advantages over audio cassettes: students can see as well as hear; videos hold students attention more. 9 Video camera 10 Dictionaries 11 Course books 12 Resource books 13 Photocopiers 14 Computers 15 Online sources
