本文乃在探討補習班的英語教師及學生們對研究者所挑選之六種正宗教材（歌曲、故事、廣告、自我閱讀、菜單及兒童書信）的態度研究。此六種正宗教材是研究者從諸多正宗教材中專門為實驗組的學生們所選取設計之另一種評估教材。本研究的目的為驗證英語教師及學生對正宗教材的態度看法。研究樣本包括七位英語教師、七間英語補習班及一百五十二位學生（其中五十七位在實驗組；九十五位在對照組）。結果指出在實驗組的學生與老師對添增正宗教材在補習班的課程中持正面、肯定的態度。研究採敘述性統計，並在此六個月的實驗調查中提供了使用這些正宗教材對補習班英語學習寶貴的意見。

This study discusses the Taiwanese teachers' and EFL students' attitudes toward six types of authentic materials (songs, stories, advertisements, self-readings, menus, and children's letters), selected from the authentic sources and designed by the researcher for this experiment as an alternative assessment. The purpose of this study was to examine teachers' and students' attitudes toward authentic materials in learning English at cram schools.The population sample consisted of seven teachers at seven cram schools in Taiwan, a total of 152 students participated in this study (including 57 students in the experimental group; 95 students were in the control groups). Data analysis showed that both instructors and students had positive attitudes toward adding some authentic materials into cram school curricula. The six-month experimental investigation provided great insights in the use of authentic materials in the cram schools by analysis of descriptive statistics.
