Week 5 Reflection- Workbook Evaluation

After conducting the evaluation by using Williams checklist to a book, titled “Natural English” by Ruth Gairns and Stuart Redman, I found that the checklist is appropriate for the teachers, especially the pre-service teachers, as the checklist was very simple and easy to understand. There are two units chosen in the textbook which we have evaluated, which were unit 3 and 7. Even though the checklist was quite simple, but still, we encountered few problems with the terms used by Williams. This problem creating the difficulties of understanding the criteria stated in the sections. On the other hand, most of the criteria included in the checklist fulfilled the contents of the textbook.

In a nutshell, as a pre-service teacher, I can now understand how the sections in the checklist being divided and why each criteria was chosen in the evaluation. Besides that, I can applied the knowledge from what I had learned to teach in the future.
