Willis and Willis 2007 propose ways to sequence tasks. There are identifying a topic, deciding target tasks and deciding facilitating tasks. The first
way is identifying a topic which is relevan t to the students‘ need. Next, deciding
target task is related to activities that reflect the real world of the learners. It means that the use of language in the task should be meaningful. The last,
deciding facilitating task is related to the priming and preparation activities. Activities in which learners are introduced to the content of the target task.
6. Materials Evaluation
a. Evaluation process
Hutchinson and Waters 1987 propose some questions used to evaluate the materials in terms of audience, aims, content, methodology and other criteria.
In term of audience, it means that the materials should be appropriate for the intended audiences.
The good materials should have the clear aims. It will be useful to guide the materials developer to keep in the track while developing materials.
The content of the materials should cover the linguistic descriptions, language points, the proportion of work on each skill, the covered micro-skills,
text types, types of topics, the organised contents within the units and materials, and the sequenced content within the units and materials.
In term of methodology, the materials should be based on the theories of learning. Tasks, teaching and learning techniques and aids should be covered in
the materials. The good materials is flexible; they provide a guidance for the users.
In other criteria aspect, this is related to the price and the accessibility of the materials.
b. Evaluation of the materials
There are two components to evaluate the materials based on the BSNP team. They are the content feasibility and the materials presentation feasibility.
The explanations are listed in Table 5 below.
Table 5: The Materials Evaluation Components
Sub-components Descriptions
The content feasibility The appropriateness of the
materials with the standard competences andor goals
and objectives It should be complete and
cover all of the materials based on the goals andor
objectives. The accurateness of the
materials It has social functions,
the meaning structures and
elements, and
linguistic features. The enrichment of teaching
materials It should develop the life
proficiency. The materials
presentation feasibility The presentation technique
The units should be systematic and equal.
The learning presentation It should focus on the
students, develop
creativity, critical
thinking, students‘
autonomous, and the skill of self reflection.
