 Selecting materials is another important decision which has to be made while planning a writing course. What sort of materials we will have to select? And of course, the answer is very simple and straightforward. The materials which are motivating, which are engaging, which encourage students produce texts. So again, while selecting materials, we will have to ask ourselves about the ideology we stick to, whether we stick to behaviorism. That might not be interesting, socioculturalism, yes, interesting. So there are several features which we will have to keep in mind while making decisions about materials. One of the most important is the topics. Are the topics interesting? Are the topics engaging? For example, if we choose topic, give topic to the students which is culturally irrelevant or which is religiously irrelevant or which is ethically not seen appropriate, may not be engaging. So yes, we will have to be very dexterous in terms of making decisions about selecting materials. Are they culturally appropriate? Are the topics culturally appropriate? For example, we cannot include topics on taboo areas which are considered socially social taboos in the Pakistani context. Is the content relevant? The topics bring in the content which is relevant, which is not irrelevant. Then types of writing, are the students writing essays, letters or paragraphs appropriately? Yes, this is important decision. Is what they need to be writing? I mean it's not like writing for the sake of writing, rather writing for the sake of generating ideas and drafting ideas, synthesizing ideas, putting those ideas into a coherent whole. Then another element or feature is which of the following are included when we select materials, whether we allow our students to brainstorm or we just force them straight away start with writing, whether we encourage our students to do exercises of pre-writing. I have used this pre-writing exercise often in my language teaching context and found very useful results, listing, mapping or outline. What information is provided? It's important while we give instructions to the students about writing, we shouldn't do too much because too much instruction can confuse them, descriptions, narration, exposition and argument. So this is how we need to encourage our students brainstorm ideas and then put those ideas into drafts and revise and edit them. Collaboration is important and I have seen its effective positive results like when I see classroom as a community, as a community of diverse minds, diverse mentalities, diverse social cultural needs, then it becomes easier to create peer work, group work and it's important for the language teacher to see collaboration in our context like it may be difficult in the first class and to make the students sort of start with collaboration and from my own personal experience point of view I sort of engage them into collaboration into the third or fourth class when they have become quite used to my teaching, my own presence in the classroom. Are students encouraged to write drafts? Yes, this is important because writing multiple drafts allows students to see writing as a messy process. Does your student curriculum allow for the revision of essays? So revision is again very important. So there are a number of decisions which a language teacher will have to make while selecting materials for a writing course.
