In this paper, we focus on the diffi culty discrimination of interpretation teaching materials on the basis of analytic hierarchy process and natural language processing. We analyze several factors which affect interpretation teaching materials, and we introduce theories of analytic hierarchy process and natural language processing which is intuitive and credible operation basis.展开更多

This paper first provides a brief historical overview of the development of college English teaching materials in China. Then by investigating studies on college English teaching materials for non-English major students from different perspectives, suggestions are proposed to provide guidance for effective ELT materials writing and evaluation: (1) Language corpora, providing empirical data concerning language usage, have a distinctive advantage in ELT materials writing and evaluation; (2) principles for ESP materials writing are developed; and (3) a systematic approach combining qualitative analysis with quantitative analysis to materials evaluation is suggested to ensure the validity and reliability of materials evaluation展开更多
