Framed within an informed and re ective approach, it o ers a thorough discussion about the origins, educational philosophies, and evolving views of curriculum design. It then examines the key theories on language learning and teaching that build up our systems of beliefs and the way they articulate and shape our teaching practices. Drawing on key principles for material design, this book also invites the reader to analyze the meanings and messages that are embedded in the images we nd in di erent types of texts, media, and social networks. A whole section is devoted to the in uence of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on education and language teaching and the way they may also play a key role in our daily practices. This book closes with an integrative chapter that explains in detail the main phases we propose for a model unit design, which can in turn serve as a model for the construction of other teaching materials, for in this model unit we have made explicit the importance of articulating a sound system of beliefs to guide our curricular choices.application/pdfspahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Adquisición de segunda lengua - Investigaciones - PedagogíaLenguaje y lenguas - EnseñanzaLenguaje y lenguas - CurrículoFormación profesional de maestrosBilingüismoPedagogíaLenguas extranjeras - Enseñanza - AprendizajeCurrículoLenguas extranjeras - Métodos de enseñanzaMétodos de estudiobookSecond language acquisition - Research - PedagogyLanguage and languages - TeachingLanguage and languages - CurriculumProfessional teacher trainingBilingualismPedagogyForeign languages - Teaching - LearningCurriculumForeign languages - Teaching methodsStudy methodsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
