WHAT IS MATERIALS EVALUATION?
According to Tomlinson (2013) materials evaluation is “a
procedure that involves measuring the value (or potential value)
of a set of learning materials” (p. 21). Materials evaluation is
key to a success of a course as is helps us to assess the suitability
of the course materials to the course goals and students needs.
WHAT IS MATERIALS EVALUATION?
• Evaluating as instructional materials is as
important as its development.
• The evaluation phase is considered critical as this
involves gathering feedback both from students
and teachers.
• Regular review and evaluation are necessary as
these lead to making the teaching and learning
better every single year.
Here are five tips in evaluating instructional materials for
language learning to develop students' critical and creative
thinking skills,
• Alignment of purpose

See to it that the materials intended for use are aligned

to the learning outcomes.
2. Capacity of the learners
Make sure that the learning materials do not bore the students with
advanced knowledge and skills and frustrate those who with lesser
capability to perform. In other words, the material should embrace the
idea of inclusivity as it is beneficial to the entire group of students.
3. Localization and contextualization
A meaningful learning experience happens when materials are familiar to
the students and when experiences are authentic. Once customs and
traditions are taken into consideration, students value their culture. In
effect they will be conscious of preserving and promoting their culture.
4. Physical appearance of the instructional material

Provide sufficient but attractive graphics that can capture the interest of
the students. The content, style and structure should be considered to
ensure continuance of engagement. Further, examine its durability. For
practical reasons, these materials maybe enhanced for future use.
5. Challenge fine lifelong learning
In the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0), technology- driven
learning engagement is at the forefront. Every teacher needs to be proactive in
accepting this challenge. Therefore, an instructional material should likewise
contain challenging activities that guide the students in the development of their
critical and creative thinking skills may they be on paper or on technology The
utilization of a management learning system in teaching-learning activities is
encouraged.
Instructional Materials be regularly evaluated with the collaboration among the
teachers as this endgenders improvements of the instructional delivery.
