|b This study critically examines the development of language learning materials designed for non-English majors. The term “non-English majors” will be used throughout this study to refer to students of medicine, Engineering, business and science who attend the English class as a university requirement during the first year, previously referred as preparatory-year students. The study is descriptive in nature and based on a reflection of personal experience along with a theoretical perspective of material development as suggested by ESP and EAP experts. The researcher’s experience working with non-English majors for many years in as a language instructor has driven him to undertake this research. The researcher has witnessed several attempts made by the English Language Institute to find the most appropriate language materials for ESL and EFL students. However, there is no complete satisfaction from the educational stakeholders with any of the endeavors. Although extensive research has been conducted in this area, the focus has mainly been on analyzing and evaluating the existing instructional materials. A few studies have dealt with designing or selecting teaching materials for those whose majors are not English. To that end, the paper explicates some myths related to the design of language material for non-English majors. It first discusses the approach to teaching language to non-English majors to determine which approach to adopt: English for specific purposes (ESP) or general English (GE). After that, it highlights the language needs of non-English majors and its importance in developing language materials. It finally reviews the characteristics of effective language material developers. The paper concludes with recommendations for improving the existing language materials designed for non-English majors.
