Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Literature, in its myriads of formats and genres, can be a staple resource in a contemporary classroom working with a communicative rationale. However, simply throwing books at young learners without any consideration of aims, methods and expected outcomes is not the way to go about it. This course will focus on a principled (but no less joyful) approach to using literary materials (in a wider sense) at all stages of the EFL classroom.

Students will be able to
- Reflect on their own experiences with literature as English learners and identify some principles
- Base their understanding of the role of literature on both curricular frameworks and international research results
- Select aims, materials and methods in accordance with the above and devise coherent and convincing lesson plans
Methods: readings and discussions, video book review, creative writing exercise, pair/group work for lesson plans and presentations
