Topik: retrospective evaluation ; English learning materials Fulltext: hal 855.pdf (15.04MB) Isi artikel English learning materials play a pivotal role in teaching English as an international language (TEIL) or currently also called teaching English as a global language (TEGL), and determine the success of English teachinglearning processes in classrooms. They serve as basic inputs and simulataneously cater the students with sources to practice for the students in their learning. For particular students, however, they can either foster or impede their learning, depending upon their degree of suitability for the students’ characteristics. As the students are the doers of learning, the English learning materials –as inputs and sources to practice should be suitable for the pre-determined learning objectives, teachers’ demands, and students’ characteristics and socioeconomic cultural backgrounds in order that they facilitate their learning. The English learning materials, therefore, should predictively and retrospectively be evaluated for the suitability. The second model of the material evaluation determines the empirical suitability of learning materials for the students. It can be conducted by the English teachers and students in the classroom during and or after the English teaching-learning processes. This article discusses the importance and role of a retrospective evaluation on English learning materials as the basis for selecting suitable English learning materials and for developing suitable teacher-made English learning materials. The discussion includes English learning material evalutaions, aspects of English learning materials to be retrospectively evaluated, the procedure how to conduct a simple microretrospective evaluation, and the benefits of a retrospective evaluation for English teaching-learning processes to improve the students’ achievements.
