Sažetak
What methodology needs to be applied in order to get a high-quality coursebook for teaching ESP in high-schools? A group of enthusiasts has decided to carry out research among pupils, teachers of foreign language, teachers of specialized subjects and employers in order to obtain the most accurate needs analysis. Based on the results, it has been concluded that it would be noteworthy to include ESP as an optional course in some Croatian vocational high-schools. In order to achieve that goal, professors who teach specialized subjects created Croatian terminology coursebook covering topics that follow the syllabus including relevant terminology and useful dialogues. Finally, teachers of English had to write the coursebook following these guidelines and lesson plans ; and informaticians were employed to create an interactive digital coursebook. The paper describes the process of writing an ESP coursebook based on such methodology within EU project, and discusses relevant points and results obtained. Types of terminology, skills and language functions included in the coursebook will be reflected upon, and the key points of the whole process will be summarised. These may serve as a starting point for further similar ventures.
