This unit talked about the importance of course books and lesson material. Teachers can use both authentic and created material. The first provides motivation and confidence while the second can be tailored to meet specific needs. Advantages to using course books include: less preparation time for teachers, a balanced mix of material and a given progression of learning. Disadvantages include: the material might not be specific enough for a lesson's intent, the course book might be outdated and overuse might be boring and uninteresting for students. Throughout the unit, the main theme was balance between using course material and finding creative ways to meet the students' needs.
