4.2. Pre-Test-ST Summer 20201

For effective use, the teacher selects authentic materials that are aligned with the program theme and lesson can do statements.   

Varied and age-appropriate authentic materials move learners’ experiences from input (interpretive mode) to output (interpersonal and interpretive modes)

Authentic materials can be substituted by what the textbooks display of carefully styled texts and pictorial illustrations. 

Use of authentic materials helps learners understand the perspectives behind practice and products of the target culture.

Teachers can create authentic materials that are appropriate for the age and proficiency level of their students.   

The same item of authentic material can be used for multiple and different learning tasks.

Match the statement in column A with the appropriate one in column B.
