English Language Textbooks for Mongolian Secondary Schools - Course

By: English Language Teachers’ Association of Mongolia (ELTAM), Mongolia

The Product: This is the first English language course book series for Mongolian secondary schools and consists of 18 books (Student’s Books, Activity Books, Teacher’s Books) covering 6 levels. Each level includes a cassette or CD recorded in a UK studio. The course was produced by a team of eight Mongolian teachers and a Mongolian publisher, who were supported by a UK-based consultant.

It is the culmination of an eight year curriculum development and textbook writing project, sponsored by the Mongolian Ministry of Education and the Mongolian Foundation for Open Society (Soros Foundation), and is used for teaching, teacher training and textbook writer development within Mongolia. The course was hard work to write, but is fun to use!

Judge's comments: “The organisation is simple and effective. The contents are clear. The topics are interesting and fun. It does a sound job”.
