In this video, we explain two concepts from Scott Thornbury, the E-Factor and the A-Factor, that can be used to evaluate the potential and effectiveness of your grammar activity choices. The E-Factor refers to efficiency and the A-Factor refers to appropriacy. Using these factors allows us to make good strategic decisions when planning our grammar lessons.
