appendices –if there are any).

Besides, the activities have to be presented in this Word document: keep the questions

Guide.

The final activitiy has to be submitted following the procedure specified in the “Subject
Evaluation” document. Sending it to the teacher’s e-mail is not permitted.

Practice Activities

Task 1.
Define the following words so the differences between them are clear:

a) Curriculum and syllabus

b) Approach and method.

Task 2
Unit 2 argues that most curriculums are either knowledge-centered or person-
centered. Find the book you learn English with, or a book you like using in your
class and argue whether it is a knowledge-centered curriculum or person-
centered curriculum. Illustrate your argument with captures from the book. Do
not forget to include the full reference, as well.

Task 3
Are some verb tenses more teachable than other items? List five different verb
tenses in English in order of “teachability” according to your criteria. Give them
a score from 1 (very easy to teach) to 5 (very difficult to teach) and justify the
score. You might want to consider the students’ L1, previous experiences, or
activities you have tried (either as a teacher or as a student) that worked well.

Task 4
4. The following is an advert for a two-week immersion course that combines
English and sports: http://www.ipcexeter.co.uk/courses/school-language-
projects/the-projects/englishsports/
Considering a course like this, explain what peculiarities the syllabus design
would need to consider in terms of setting goals, choosing/designing materials,
teaching methodology and evaluation.
