TASK 2: EVALUATING ENGLISH TEXT BOOKS
Juli 11, 2017
Text Book: Gateway English for Active Communication
Riyanto, S. (2009). Gateway English for Active
Communication. Yogyakarta: Pustaka Pelajar.
Based on website
exploration, our group learned from:
“A notional-functional syllabus is a way of organizing a language-learning curriculum, rather than a method or an approach to
teaching. In a notional-functional syllabus, instruction is not organized in
terms of grammatical
structure, as
had often been done with the Audio-Lingual
Method (ALM),
but instead in terms of notions and functions."
Riyanto’s (2009) “Gateway English for Active Communication” fits
this definition of Functional/Notional syllabus, therefore our group decided
that this text book is developed based on Functional/Notonial syllabus.
According to
Wilkins:
“A
notional-functional syllabus is an approach where the organization of the
material is determined with notions or ideas that learners expect to be able to
express through the target language and the functions acts learners expect to
be able to accomplish.”
Wilkin’s description on how functional/notional
syllabus is organized fits the way Riyanto’s (2009) organize the material in
textbook. The texbook start with how to give and show the expressions in daily activities
especially.
