- - - - State students' knowledge of the prior topics which precede the target one that builds upon the prior ones.
        
        For instance, if the target topic to be taught is Present Perfect Tense, Simple Present Tense is an "entry competency". :check:
        
        However, please note that not every prior learnt knowledge is an entry competency. Do not write down everything the student knows :red_cross:

      - Audience (Your learners)
      - Degree (To which extend the behavior is expected)
      - An example outcome would be as following.
        
        Students verbalize the main idea of a dialogue they listen to with a hundred percent accuracy when asked after a listening activity.
- - - - Texts :fountain_pen:
      - Motion Media :video_camera:
      - Audio :studio_microphone:

  - - - A. Efficiency :+1::skin-tone-5:
        
        It is about whether the material to be selected function in the best possible manner, without much waste of time and labour.
      - B. Effectiveness :dart:
        
        It is about whether the material to be selected serve the purpose of producing the learning outcomes.
    - - Material Selection :thinking_face:
        
        The decision of using a material as it is should be done according to a systematic evaluation of some questions to be asked [see more in Heinich et al. (2001), Chapter 3].
        
        Does it contain clear language?
        
        Is there evidence of effectiveness?
        
        Is it accurate and current?
        
        Does it provide for learner participation?
        
        Does it match the curriculum?
      - Material Creation :computer:
        
        This should be the last resort of a teacher as it is mostly a time-consuming and a laborious work. If necessary to do, however, the questions asked as in the case of material selection should be included while creating a material as well.
      - Material Modification :male-teacher::skin-tone-6:
        
        If a completely suitable material cannot be chosen, the material found can be modified in some of its sums to have a more relatable material, which can be done in 4 ways.
        
        Adding
        
        E.G: If seen necessary, more activities can be added in an activity sheet or the ones already there can be expanded.
        
        Replacing
        
        E.G: A difficult listening passage in an activity sheet can be replaced with an easier one or can even be recorded by the teacher himself/herself.
        
        Omitting
        
        E.G: If an unnecessary element is found in an activity sheet or it is irrelevant with what is taught, it can simply be removed.
        
        Simplifying
        
        E.G: A difficult reading passage in an activity sheet can be simplified using more basic words and sentences.

      - Lead-in :checkered_flag:
        
        It leads the students to the focus of the topic as well as activating their background knowledge with the use of activities.
      - Activities :book:
        
        They are done in 5 steps.
        
        1. Organizing the students

        5. Finishing the activity and exchanging feedback
      - Warm-up :runner:
