*authentic Materials : Towards A Rational Selection And An Effective Implementation
Authors : Laamri Segni .
Abstract
There is no doubt that the pedagogical materials, the textbooks, and the “ sheltered ” language they provide have their place in the classroom, yet they may hamper communication and create gaps reflected in the real language and the language proposed by such materials. In the classroom or in the language laboratory, teachers exploit various types of supporting materials in an attempt to enliven their classes and contextualize their teaching to go beyond the artificial classroom setting. But, do the materials we generally incorporate in our teaching really develop our learner’s proficiency in using the target language? What other extra curricular sources could reinforce our learners' communicative competence and trigger the process of natural language acquisition? The present paper discusses the benefits that could be derived from the incorporation of authentic materials into the EFL classroom. We believe that a substantial input of authentic materials adapted to the learners' levels and interests would increase their sensitivity to and competence in the target language. Furthermore, current authentic materials such as clips from mass media, movies, and cartoons, newpaper articles, plays, short stories, if properly selected and efficiently implemented will certainly enhance the process of language learning.
