This section has clearly outlined how to approach syllabus development, but also how to approach and fit into a pre-determined syllabus in the most effective way. It was interesting exploring the different levels in more depth and understanding how they would be applied practically. Level testing is important to ensure that the students can be challenged but yet cope with the work, and a positive learning experience is created. The example worksheet for level testing was interesting and, will be useful in the future. I also recognise the importance in designing a syllabus around the needs of the students. A good needs analysis will be key to helping guide this process and will lead to a more holistic syllabus. The importance of testing, the type of testing and the period of testing was clearly explained. It is important to have the different styles of testing for designing a new programme, as this will allow for development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Following this process, changes would more than likely need to be made to improve the overall course.
