 Teacher vs. Scholar
Who do you think should be writing ESL curriculums?
Teachers seem to have the practical knowledge of what does and doesn't work in the classroom, but the scholar comes to the ESL table with the theoretical knowledge.
I understand the best people to make a curriculum would be a mixture of both these types of individuals but I would dare argue reality shows this isn't usually the case.
If you were forced to choose, who would you feel more comfortable writing ESL curriculum, the teacher or scholar? |
