Assignment C - Part 1
An Evaluation of Cutting Edge Advanced
ü Use the checklist from unit 10 ('Evaluating course book material') to write a general evaluation
of the book.
ü 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.
ü This must be presented as a coherent essay, not just a list.
ü 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.
ü You do not need to refer to the class described for Part 2 of this assignment.
Write 300 - 500 words.

To evaluate a coursebook when you have only one sample unit seems to be a bit difficult.
Nevertheless, as you peruse the pages, you realise that this is a complete coursebook in many
aspects, and indeed, it is the fruit of extensive research by its authors.

The contents in this shiny, colourful, attractive-looking coursebook appear to have been inspired by
actual, day to day life, and the students can relate to them. The first unit focuses on Globalisation
and Urbanisation, exciting and engaging topics for learners of different countries and ethnicities.
The last topic: English around the Globe is the icing on the cake, and its relevance to advanced
level English learners is undeniable.

If we consider the checklist on evaluating a coursebook provided by TEFL academy in unit 10 of
this course, we can see that some aspects are strictly followed. There seems to be a good balance of
all four skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking). The book is full of various interactive
activities where students can work in pairs or groups. Furthermore, most of the activities are a mix
of 2 or 3 skills such as listening and reading; OR listening and speaking; OR listening, reading and
speaking, resulting in entirely brilliant learning tasks for students.

In addition, each skill activity is complemented by new vocabulary. As a result, the teacher has a lot
of material to exploit in class.


On the other hand, this coursebook has its own flaws. Firstly, there is a plethora of information on
each page. The pages look cluttered and confusing, which could be disappointing and daunting for
the students, and even tiring for teachers.

The grammar portion in this unit seems inadequate, and the teacher would have to supplement it
with other grammatical exercises. Besides, the authors have not included specific activities that
could help to recycle and revise the target language.


On page 14 is Language Live, which covers the Writing skill and aims to recycle and revise the
vocabulary on Globalisation. It comes right after the Listening and Reading task on language

,learning strategies and just before the listening activities on varieties of English. As a result, it
seems a bit out of context, plus it disrupts the logical arrangement of topics.


In the end, I would like to state the obvious that it is almost impossible to find a coursebook that
perfectly fits the language needs and interests of a particular class. However, I would undoubtedly
use this coursebook as it has some exciting and engaging activities, and I would supplement it with
my own material so that my lessons can finally suit the learning styles and expectations of the
learners.
