In this unit I learnt the pro and cons of using a course book. I also learned about the differences of using created material and authentic material. It is very good to know about when is a good time to use the different type of materials. It is also very beneficial to know how to properly select a good course book to teach frrom and what to lookfor when choosing one.This unit focused on the different type of materials that are available to an instructure. Authentic and created materials seemed to be what was most stressed. These types of materials are most useful for students as they utilize \"real\" language as opposed to scripted language. The unit also provide examples of created materials that will be useful in the classroom.
