Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Why should we read? What should we read? What is the place of literature in the ELT classroom? Or can you get everything off the net anyway? Does reading make the heart grow fonder? Is life just mirroring trashy novels? Or is it the other way round?
These are some of the questions asked, and maybe answered, in this course. We will cover nearly everything: simple stories, hefty novels, graded readers, young adult potboilers, recent bestsellers and literature with a capital L. And on all of them we will cast a teacher's eyes.
Voracious readers and reluctant readers are both welcome (as long as they can justify their ways to us). One school visit (as a group) - date to be negotiated.

Assessment and permitted materials

Assessment will be based on regular (and active) participation and a portfolio.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

To demonstrate that literature can be used and enjoyed at all levels in ELT.
