Assignment C - Part 1
An Evaluation of Cutting Edge Advanced
Use the checklist from unit 10 ('Evaluating course book material') to write a general evaluation
of the book.
You won't be able to comment on all items as you only have one unit and the contents, but say
as much as you can.
This must be presented as a coherent essay, not just a list.
Then say whether you personally would like to use the book with an advanced class and why or
why not - this is just your opinion, so there is not a right or a wrong response to this part.
You do not need to refer to the class described for Part 2 of this assignment.
Write 300 - 500 words.

This coursebook is visually appealing and presented with clear headings, attractive fonts, images,
and graphically designed with an eye-catching design. The content is presented in a way that
seamlessly blends graphics, images, colours, and words, which would provide students with a
more engaging learning experience.
There is a good balance between all four skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) and the
language areas (vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation). The content of this coursebook is for
advanced-level students, and a gradual increase in difficulty occurs as the material progresses.
The students have excellent opportunities to work in pairs, groups, and as a class on the
coursebook material, which fosters a collaborative and inclusive learning environment. As a result
of the activities, students gain insight into their peers' experiences and ideas when they do a
comparative analysis of their ideas. Another helpful section is the list of outcomes which gives the

4. Write a report.
5. Recognise different varieties of English.
