    Creating Effective Materials for Eap
    (Springer Nature, 2024) Altınmakas, Derya
    Materials used in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses should strike a balance between the required linguistic proficiency in receptive and productive language skills and the disciplinary-specific vocabulary, content, and text genres. While published EAP materials provide EAP teachers with a solid structure, a wide range of texts, and a syllabus to rely on, most coursebooks remain inadequate to cater to the needs of learners from different academic disciplines. Therefore, EAP teachers should consider a set of carefully determined criteria before selecting, adapting, and developing pertinent EAP materials for their students and exert effort to familiarize themselves with the disciplinary-specific text genres. This chapter informs the readers about the key principles of selecting, using, and adapting published EAP materials and ways of designing customized EAP materials for specific learning contexts. Practical principles are offered for EAP teachers preparing students, particularly for undergraduate programs. These guiding principles emphasize selecting engaging and relevant authentic texts and designing purposeful activities that integrate technology in material development. They also focus on teaching discipline-specific academic writing conventions and text genres through genre pedagogy in EAP courses, aiming to enhance students' academic literacy and critical thinking skills. © The Author(s).

    Teaching Literature With Elf Paradigm in Elt Classrooms
    (Taylor and Francis, 2023) Tülüce, Hande Serdar; Altınmakas, Derya
    This chapter shows how teachers can utilise literary texts in their language classrooms to unearth the potential of the ELF paradigm in promoting general and critical language awareness and preparing students for the complex and diversified socio-linguistic reality of the 21st century. Earlier discussions of integrating literature in EFL classrooms mainly emphasised the use of literary texts as supplementary materials to ELT coursebooks to reinforce learners’ linguistic knowledge and enhance their understanding of the target language and culture, particularly British and/or American. The current status of ELF challenges the taken-for-granted approaches to selecting and using literary texts in language classrooms, and thus the use of literature in language teaching is in need of rejuvenation. Considering the dynamics and the reality of communication in ELF contexts, language learners today need to be familiarised with the unfamiliar and different ecosystems. The chapter presents literature-based activities designed using two short stories and two novels written by multilingual authors, which can be used with secondary school and university students with B1+ levels of proficiency.
