  9. PRODUCT DIMENSION • Specification of the expected outcomes • Linked to learners’ needs • Outcomes can be divided into : • Knowledge oriented • Skill oriented

  10. PRODUCT DIMENSION • CONTENT/KNOWLEDGE ORIENTED : 1. The statement of outcomes will answer what are the learners expected to know • Content can be specified as reading selections, linguistic structures, vocabulary, linguistic functions • Associated with accuracy • Learners are expected to become proficient in linguistic forms

  11. PRODUCT DIMENSION • SKILL ORIENTED • Related to actual use of the new language Eg: If the student plan to use the target language to read academic or technical material, the statement should reflect the specific reading skills they need to be proficient in – skimming, scanning, speed reading, etc.

  12. SHAPE OF SYLLABUS • THE LINEAR FORMAT • THE MODULAR FORMAT • THE CYCLICAL FORMAT • THE MATRIX FORMAT • THE STORY LINE FORMAT

  13. SHAPE OF SYLLABUS • 1. THE LINEAR FORMAT (pg 52) • For grammar and structures • Linguistic and pedagogical principles determine the order • Sequencing and grading are important • Teachers cannot change the order of units or skip any – careful grading will be affected

  14. SHAPE OF SYLLABUS • 2. THE MODULAR FORMAT (pg 53) • Integrates thematic with skills orientation • Objectives are flexible

  15. SHAPE OF SYLLABUS • 3. THE CYCLICAL FORMAT (pg 56) • Enables teachers and students to work with the same topic more than once • Level of difficulty/complexity increases • New subject matter should not be introduced then forgotten • New subject matter should be reintroduced

  16. SHAPE OF SYLLABUS • 4. THE MATRIX FORMAT (pgs 58,59,60) • Gives users maximum flexibility to select topics from a table of contents • Suited to situational content
