TITLE OF THE ARTICLE:


AUTHENTIC VS NON-AUTHENTIC MATERIALS


I will talk about the use of authentic materials vs non authentic materials in the classroom. This materials can be useful for our students in some occasions the use of this material depend of our students level, because those materials have a high levels for the students and this situation provoke in them frustration because they can’t understand what are they reading? In other hand this materials have advantages for the students and the teachers for example: 1- motivation to learn and teach, provide authentic cultural information, exposure to real language, relate more closely to learners’ needs, and support more creative approach to teaching।Use authentic material can involve the students on the context and for the way they can be able to created appropriate responses for questions doing by the teacher.This kind of materials help for communicated without problems because these resources provide to the learners security and reliance in them.Also the use of non authentic material can be used, but these materials need be according with the subject area that is teaching on that moment.
