Recenzii

Because of its stress on practical applications of theory and research . . . [this book] will be of great value to materials writers, publishers, and teachers interested in designing their own materials. A welcome contribution to the field.
Offers new insights into a wealth of topics, issues and perspectives that represent the current state of materials development thereby increasing teachers' awareness of changes in practice.
Developing Materials for Language Teaching (3rd Ed.) is a completely updated reference resource and course book for materials designers and language teachers at all levels of professional development. Its strength is in its comprehensiveness, not only of content and key issues but also in geographic and education context coverage.
This valuable resource brings together well-established and new voices in the field of materials development to create a varied and up-to-date collection of chapters. Tomlinson's volumes are known for their challenging and hard-hitting examination of the status quo, and this book does not disappoint. New chapters offer much-needed insights into under-researched areas such as the use of materials, right to left scripted languages and the commodification of grammar, and 'old' chapters have been updated with fresh insights. An essential for anyone researching, studying or practising materials development.
